His original design included web wings, as seen in the comics, but not in the cinematic space until Spider-Man: Homecoming.
Ditko was found dead June 29 in his New York City apartment.
A statement released Saturday by Marvel Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada read:
"Only a small group of individuals can claim that they have effected and redefined not just an industry, but popular culture worldwide. Steve Ditko was one of those few who dared to break molds every time his pencil and pen hit a blank sheet of paper. In his lifetime he blessed us with gorgeous art, fantastical stories, heroic characters and a mystical persona worthy of some of his greatest creations. And much like his greatest co-creation, Steve Ditko’s legend and influence will outlive us all."
Marvel also tweeted a farewell to Ditko, including a striking image of Holland's Spider-Man.

Holland will next slip into the Spidey suit for Spider-Man: Far From Homein July 2019.
