Summary:
"For more than 50 years, the name of artist John Romita Sr. has been synonymous with the Marvel style of drawing comics -- a trademark look featuring attractively illustrated figures in action-packed panels. In 1966, Romita began his historic turn on Amazing Spider-Man -- a run that included the debuts of the Kingpin and Mary Jane Watson, and the final fate of the Green Goblin. Romita was also a driving force in the creation of dozens of famed Marvel characters, including Wolverine and the Punisher." -- page 4 of cover.
