What are your thoughts on this character? Has anyone gotten him right since Ditko?

Me, I find him appealing - a character for whom scaring the living shit out of people is it's own reward!

To me, he's a heroic Joker... but that's just based on visuals. I really don't know the Ditko Creeper at all.

I've only read one story with the character, Brave and the Bold #? drawn by Jim Aparo. I don't know if you'd say he got the character right, but I thought it was pretty damn cool.

Yeah, that was my first thought too. Then I realized it must be the DC comics Creeper.

Minor historical note--when he was unmasked the Scooby Doo Creeper was the first to complain about "meddling kids".

I don't think Ditko even got him that right himself.

But the design is awesome.

Over the next few days I'll be doing my best to "figure out" this character.
