Miscellaneous: Speedball letter from Tom Defalco (submission from Richard Caldwell)

Richard Caldwell was kind enough to share a letter he received from then Marvel Editor in Chief Tom Defalco concerning Ditko illustrated & co-created chracter Speedball.

“[Here] is a response from then editor in chief of Marvel Tom Defalco to a fan letter I had written concerning the cancellation of the Speedball monthly. I was 11. Note that the postmark is roughly a year and a half before the debut of the New Warriors, meaning Defalco was (A) really thinking ahead, and (B) super groovy for sharing that information with a young reader.”
