John Romita Jr. 30th Anniversary Special

(Marvel, 2006)
™ and © 2006 Marvel Characters, Inc.

The son of the infamous John Romita of Amazing Spider-Man fame, John Romita, Jr. made his own mark on the history of Marvel Comics starting in 1977. After a few random covers and pinups, Romita Jr.’s career began in earnest with a backup story that originally appeared in Amazing Spider-Man Annual #11 and is reprinted here. Jr. then went on to do a stint on Iron Man and later various jobs on Spider-Man and X-Men. There are various tributes, sketches and a time line that completes this well-deserved tribute to a living legend.
