"Nearly 20 years ago, a young John Romita Jr. walked into the Marvel Comics offices, looking for work as an artist. Despite his impressive legacy as the son of famed Spider-Man artist John Romita Sr., Romita Jr. faced a difficult entry into the intensely competitive field. In 1976, Marvel offered Romita Jr. his first big break, as artist on Iron Man. Romita Jr. proved without a doubt he possessed the rare skill, creativity and dedication to be a successful professional. Since those early days, Romita Jr. has crafted a historic career that places him among the industry's elite talents; he has illustrated nearly every Marvel character, from Spider-Man to the X-Men. Includes stories by Chris Claremont, Scott Edelman, J. Michael Straczynski, Roger Stern, Chuck Dixon, Frank Miller, Bob Layton, and others.
