    The Scott Johnson artwork gives me the nostalgia feels

    John Romita Sr's style is what I see in my head when I think of Spider-Man's definitive look, but Romita Jr is my all-time favorite. I loved how lanky he made Spider-Man

    I'm sure there's a lot of people who think Steve Ditko drew Spider-Man better than all the artists who came after him.

    Alex Saviuk, his run in web of spiderman was one of the longest and is still one of my favorites. His style is not that iconic but still was very good capturing the classic feel of the character with a more modern take at its time. I will put him up in the list and quit all the artist that put a more cartoony look on the series.

    I think you have forgotten Stuart Immonen’s art as Spider-man. Honestly,it’s one of the most beautiful ones I have ever seen.

    Ross Andru, Gil Kane, John Romita Sr., Mark Bagley, John Byrne, John Romita Jr., Sal Buscema, Ron Frenz, Jim Mooney, Alex Saviuk, Mike Zeck, John Buscema, Steve Ditko, Larry Lieber, Todd McFarlane.

    • @lyndoncmp5751

      But he didn't remain like that. His Spider-Man morphed into a muscle bound hero. Just look at #33. More muscles than anything Romita did.

    • @ArachniNotion
      @ArachniNotion  4 роки тому +2

      I thought of him more as a writer. But yes, he left a big mark on Spider-Man. With the death of Gwen Stacy, to having a deeper focus on internal conflict rather than external.

    I love Scott Johnson's style it's so unique and semi realistic, it brings back childhood memories because his work was everywhere

  • @marvelmite1
    @marvelmite1 Рік тому

    I love how romita jrs style has changed over the years, and since he's done so much Spidey over the last 40 years, you can track that evolution so well. Starting so similar to his dad, then his bulkier Spidey of the mid 90s, his more slender, iconic run with JMS and even his latest stuff continues to show growth. I agree though that modern coloring doesn't really do him justice. Think that's part of the reason his Superman feels so awkward to me

  • @richardonthemole8576

    • @lyndoncmp5751
      @lyndoncmp5751 Рік тому +1

      Nope. Romita all the way. Ditko's work was ugly even to me as a kid. It looked like it was set in the 1940s not the swinging sixties. Best thing to ever happen to Spider-Man was Ditko leaving in a huff and Romita redefining the character forever.

  • @your_virtuoso
    @your_virtuoso Рік тому +1

    What a great list of talent.
    I will say my favorite is Mark Bagley but his position is justified given the other artists in similiar places on your list.
    I also liked Humberto Ramos

  • @orcabeast8006
    @orcabeast8006 4 роки тому +6

    Here’s one that I think nobody talks about
    patrick scherberger
    I love his earlier work the most but his later work is still cool, just not as great as the older ones, the farther he went on the more “out there” his art became, I think he just went a bit too far. His earlier work has my favorite design of spidey, maybe tied with mark bagley’s. But his work is awesome, but for some reason I never hear people talk about his work. Not in a positive or negative light, I just wish more people talked about his art

  • @jovensworld2037

    The Scott Johnson art work on Spider-Man was my introduction to the idea of Spider-Man, as well as Spectacular Spider-Man though I was 2 or 3 years old around that time.

  • @nicktroisi6347
    @nicktroisi6347 8 місяців тому +1

    John Romita Snr. is the definitive Spider-Man Artist for me. Steve Ditko provided the framework for him in the years of him finishing drawing Spider-Man.
    Honestly, Amazing Spider-Man #33 is Steve Ditko at his absolute best. That panel where Spider-Man lifts the machinery off of him is absolutely incredible artwork and such an iconic moment.

  • @paulruggiero860

  • @stainedclassv0114
    @stainedclassv0114 Рік тому +1

    Honestly haven't read a lot of Spidey comics (And especially modern ones.), but so far, I'd definitely say my favorites would be Mark Bagley, Steve Ditko, John Romita Sr., Mike Zeck, Alex Ross, Ross Andru, Ron Frenz, John Romita Jr., Tim Sale, and Gil Kane.

  • @the_happykodiak2421
    @the_happykodiak2421 Рік тому

    I think that Paolo Rivera is overlooked.
    He has this super clean geometric design for him that is classic but altered enough to be fresh. he also gives Spider-Man a resting bitch face and it works so well!

  • @cheaptoons
    @cheaptoons Рік тому

    Nice countdown, Some of these artist I was aware, but not by their names ...Scott Johnson and Patrick Brown, those two are like the mainstream commercial side of Spider-man ...hows about honorable mention like John Byrne, it's like Ditko meets Joe Shuster and he did stuff before Ultimate comics too, I'd always thought John Buscema was the artist that tried to copy or duplicate John Romita Sinnor and I thought John Romita Jr was like a clean cut very of Frank Miller in my opinion, he is very good, but I feel it goes well with raw comics like Kick-ass and Robocop and Wanted you get my drift and my last choice would be BRUCE TIMM yes the guy who drew BTAS (Batman the animated series) but when he draws spidey, it can be great for a new series or animation show !!! but good video WELL DONE

    Todd McFarlane drew the Spider-Man I grew up with, Hes gotta be higher on the list if I made it. He put Spider-Man into those exaggerated poses and he created the spaghetti webbing to name a couple things aside from Ditko and Romita Sr. Id have to say Todd drewbthe next most influential Spider-Man. He defined Spider-Man for kids who were born in the 80s and grew up in the 90s.

  • @salvus608
    @salvus608 6 місяців тому

    I agree with you about modern coloring. It has pretty much broken many of the styles of authors like Frank Miller or John Romita Jr. I think with respect to these two artists, the approach to their styles is so crude with anatomies with an archaic and grotesque air that applying color that attempts to render such volumes ends up however twisting said anatomy even more out of the vision of the illustration that the cartoonist had conceived in the first place.
    It's like trying to give great volume to the work of Tim Sale or even Bruce Timm. It's not an aesthetic conceived for that bad modern rendering.
    With Humberto Ramos, for example, they've been able to coexist the style quite well with the colorist Edgar Delgado.

    It always goes back to Ditko, it has to. Those first 40 issues set the scene.
    The rest? Well there's Ross Andru, Gil Kane, John Romita, and McFarlane was certainly responsible for the modern dynamic look even if it looks ridiculously cartoonish at times.

    Interesting. No wrong opinions. You like who you like and art is subjective. While some on this list put their unique stamp on the character or their art was inundated in the media is not a metric of best. In fact my top 4 to put pencil to Spider-Man are:
    John Romita Jr
    Oliver Coipel
    Joe Madureira
    Rick Leonardi

    I am sorry but I disagree with you, why? Because you put Alex Ross in the mix. Alex Ross is most of the time a cover artist. The rest of the artists draw the 32 pages of Spider-Man. I love Alex Ross but if the list was cover artists then Hell yeah he's number one in my book. The list should have been artists who had a run in spiderman.
