Season 3 of Creator In Conversation starts tomorrow Aug 11th, here's a short preview of some of the episodes ahead.

In 2025, President of TASQ Art, Eoin McAuley, conducted three interviews with the friends and family of renowned creator Steve Ditko, presented here in this feature-length documentary.

A private individual, Mr. Ditko was not a presence at conventions and did not provide many interviews. This, however, subsequently led to many myths to emerge around Steve Ditko in the public discourse among fans and critics.

Narrated by John Siuntres, 'Steve Ditko: Beyond The Myth' helps to dispel some of these myths and to amend the record, featuring insights and recollections from Mr. Ditko's nephew, Mark 'Zen' Ditko, his friend and colleague Jack C. Harris and scholar and correspondent Dr. Zack Kruse.
