John Romita Sr Draws . . . Spider-Man (Pt 1 of 5)

Filmed 9/10/2004 at the Balimore Comicon. An over-the-shoulder look at John Romita, Sr. drawing the character he made famous world-wide, Spider-Man. JRSr is among the Top 2 Spider-Man artists (second only to his creator Steve Ditko). JRSr is absolutely adored. His tremendous talent and legend are surpassed only by his kindness to his fans.

No doubt, the iconic Spider-Man that every kid thinks of is the John Romita Spider-Man. There have been other artists who styles I prefer who have drawn Spidey, but Romita created something magical that can never be topped.

Thanks for posting this!

I take umbrage, though, because I actually think JR is the PRIMARY Spidey artist, so much more of his work has been used to promote Spidey, and his drawings of the secondary characters, (Harry Osbourne, Liz and Flash,and Mary Jane) are really the archetypal Spidey drawings.

Mr. Ditko created something unique in Spiderman, as he does with every character he puts to paper, but to me, Mr. Romita is the man...

...I wore hairbands all through High School because of him!
