John Romita, Sr. 1930, comic-book artist best known for his work on Marvel Comics' The Amazing Spider-Man. He was inducted into the Comic Book Hall of Fame in 2002. Romita broke into comics on the seminal series Famous Funnies. Romita went on to draw a wide variety of horror, war, romance and other genres for Atlas. His most prominent work for the company was the short-lived, 1950s revival of Timely's hit character Captain America, in Young Men 24-28 (Dec. 1953 - July 1954) and Captain America 76-78 (May-Sept. 1954). In the mid-1950s, while continuing to freelance for Atlas, Romita did uncredited work for DC Comics before transitioning to work for DC exclusively in 1958. His first known work for the company is the tentatively identified penciling credit for the cover of Secret Hearts 58 (Oct. 1959), and, confirmably, pencils for the seven-page story "I Know My Love", inked by Bernard Sachs, in Heart Throbs 63 (Jan. 1960). Other titles to which he contributed include Falling in Love, Girls' Love Stories, Girls' Romances, and Young Love.
