The stories didn't have the suspenseful development of Ditko's work in the sixties, and eventually got downright goofy. I remember one story involving aliens that looked like cats that particularly made me wince. Very disappointing, because I was really hoping Ditko would have a new success, and Speedball seemed like the best opportunity he had in the '80's.<BR/><BR/>CeylonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
