RIP John Romita Sr, THE Spider-Man Artist

Hey, with all of the Spider-Man discussion flying around lately, I absolutely need to stop and call attention to the fact that John Romita Sr just passed. I can't stress enough that this man was a LEGEND. He was THE Spider-Man artist. He was the most prolific Spider-Man artist ever, he drew all of his iconic looks and character designs, and he just made the character. His art is beautiful. I've spent the last few days rereading the 1970s newspaper comics made by Stan Lee and John Romita Sr and talking for ages about how gorgeous the art is, and hearing that he died just now felt incredibly strange.

He did the most iconic Spidey covers and moments:

But also some really gorgeous other art:

If you have some favorite pieces of art by him, go ahead and add it to the post! Man, this guy was my childhood and probably permanently shaped an area of my brain. We're losing a lot of comic artist legends lately. RIP John Romita.

BHOC: MARVEL TALES #102

This issue of MARVEL TALES reprinted the story where the series concluded its transition from the Silver Age into the Bronze Age. The book had been there for several months already at this point, with writer Gerry Conway taking over for Stan Lee. But this was the first issue in forever not illustrated by John Romita.
