I'm currently reading a collection of his Spider-Man newspaper strips from the seventies.
It's like having your favorite blanket around you, perfect.

Happy Birthday!!

A true living legend and gentlemen... his Spider-Man run is the blueprint for other artists to aspire to as far as I'm concerned. Belated Happy Birthday, Mr. Romita!!

JR, Sr. is my Spider-Man artist. I really enjoyed his Captain America art,
too. He draws many mighty Marvel characters well.

One of the things I liked most about him was how highly he spoke about his son.  I wasn't a fan of JRJR's art when I was younger.  It wasn't until JRSR suggested that I look at his son's work. In an attempt at improving my art. That I began to appreciate his work.
