How Stan Lee and Steve Ditko Developed the Amazing Spider Man

Back in the day, comic books were a small business. Little money, no real recognition or respect. And they were a throwaway medium. Valueless. Now, that's all changed. Spider-Man, for instance, is a multi-zillion dollar corporate brand. But back in the 1960s, he was a superhero created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Here's a short video about those days and their impact on the creation of your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man back when it was just a silly little comic book. Some interesting insights into the creation of the world of the character through old interviews with the these two creators. 

My thanks for Randy Michaels for sending me the video.
