Just stumbled upon this tonight... looks like it was just posted on YouTube a few days ago.  Fun, breezy and informative.  Mr. Romita still looks & sounds great!

(Bump, in case anyone missed this.)

I never realized that the death of Gwen Stacy was not approved by Stan!

John Romita Sr. is one of the last living legends in the industry... AND one of my all-time favorite Spider-Man artists - love his depiction to female characters, especially Mary Jane Watson & Gwen Stacey.

-C!

John Romita, Sr. is my Spider-Man artist. He drew a great Captain America as well.

-------------------------
No doubt John Romita is indeed a living legend of the comics industry, but I would also contend Neal Adams is another undoubted member of the club. Personally, my living legend net extends fairly wide -- as far as I'm concerned our good host qualifies, as does Frank Miller, Uncle Walt, Mike Zeck, Roger Stern, Chris Claremont and JR Jr.

Gotta love the intro:

"Spidey has been blessed with many amazing artists from co creator Steve Ditko (cue cover to Spider-Man 33, drawn by Steve Ditko), to greats such as Ross Andru (cue cover to SPider-Man 140, drawn by Gil Kane)..."

Awright...
