How Romance Comics Turned John Romita Into a Superstar at Marvel Comics

Knowledge Waits is a feature where I just share some bit of comic book history that interests me. Today, I discuss how John Romita’s romance comic book work at DC in the late 1950s/early 1960s transformed him into the superstar artist he would be at Marvel for the next few decades. John Romita passed away a few months back, and it is fascinating to me that so many of the tributes to the man definitely ACKNOWLEDGED that his work in romance comic books was an important part of his career, but for the most part, there weren’t too many proper explanations of just HOW Romita’s romance work inspired his iconic superhero work when he returned to Marvel in the mid-1960s and eventually reshaped Amazing Spider-Man for generations to come.Current Spider-Man Issues Show the Lasting Impact Kraven’s Last Hunt’s Lettering Has Had
