John Romita, Jr. is a comic book artist best known for his extensive work for Marvel since the late 1970s. His middle name differs from his father's, so he is not actually "Junior" by birth. His early popularity began with his run on David Michelinie’s Iron Man (1978–1982). Romita has had multiple runs on The Amazing Spider-Man (1980–1987, 1996–1998, 2000–2004, and 2008–2009). He has drawn related titles as well, such as Peter Parker: Spider-Man (1999–2000). His 1980s work included Contest of Champions (1982), the first limited series published by Marvel, Uncanny X-Men (1983–1986), and Daredevil (1988–1990). In the 1990s, he drew Iron Man again for a year (1990), the first year of The Punisher: War Zone (1992), and the first two dozen issues of a new Thor series (1998–2000). He drew Wolverine (2004–2005) and Black Panther (2005). He drew Avengers (2010–2011) and then the Avengers v. X-Men mini-series (2012), and the first year of a new Captain America series (2013). In the 2010s, he has drawn stories at DC — Superman (2014–2015), All Star Batman (2016–2017), and Suicide Squad (2017).
