Responsible for for some iconic runs on classic Marvel characters and essentially defined their 'house style'.

Romita and Jack Kirby were the standout Marvel artists for me...

Edit - honourable mention for Steve Ditko as well...

Three very different characters and styles who basically defined an art form.

That's very sad. Did a fine job of turning Steve Ditko's wallflower Peter Parker into a 1960's swinger.

His son's not too shabby an artist either.

R.I.P.

edit. I have all of the John Romita snr run on Amazing Spider Man and most of the Steve Ditko run. All original copies.The whole tone of the character changed when Ditko left.
