Spiderman Visionaries - John Romita
John Romita is a name synonymous with the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. His touch was first felt in the 1960s. His storytelling and unique style vaulted him to the front of his generation and has helped define comic artists look for the past half-century. This collection is a showcase of some of his best and brightest work to date.
From the quintessential Green Goblin to the first appearance of the Kingpin of Crime. From the quiet grace of the ill-fated Gwen Stacy to the smoldering beauty of Mary Jane Watson. From the abduction of Spider-Man's first love to the day Peter Parker quit being Spider-Man.
Here is a selection of classics featuring John Romita, Sr.'s greatest depictions and adventures of the friendly neighborhood arachnid - including The Amazing Spider-Man #109, Mr. Romita's personal favorite issue. This volume is a salute to an artist who, none would argue, is a cornerstone of the Marvel Universe, and even more so, of the mythos of Spider-Man himself.
