The fight above is from Blue Beetle#1, written and drawn by the aforementioned Mr. Ditko and published by Charlton Comics back in June 1967. That's Ted Kord's first appearance as Blue Beetle. Here he is foiling the plans of a gang of jewel thieves called The Squids, who employ a "wall-crawling" motif similar to you-know-who.
The funny thing here is that I just picked up a Ted Kord Beetle action figure at the Chicago Comic Con two weeks back, and I posed the figure in some crazy-mad acrobatic fighting positions similar to the ones above. But it turns out some of Ditko's renderings of Ted fighting were even crazier than anything I could think up.
For tonight's fight music, what could be more appropriate than the debut single by The Beatles themselves, "Love Me Do"?
(Special thanks to Scott Tipton.)

Oh Ted. I miss you so.
Thanks for posting! I'd never seen content from the original Blue Beetle comic before. :-D
Thanks quest of this right accumulation of remark on forms. There are some arrant ideas representing the next redesign.
