>>152103836Big John
>>152103836After Kirby and Ditko there'sJohn Romita SrJohn BuscemaBill EverettWally Wood
Miller and McFarlane belong somewhere in the top 5 for me
>>152105559Not for Marvel, however.

>>152103836>Who's the 3rd most important Marvel artist after Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko?Me.
>>152103836Steranko
>>152103836Take your pick from basically any 70s-80s mainstay
>>152103836byrne, steranko, buscema, both romitas
What about Walt Simonson?
>>152103836Probably John Romita Sr, he was very important considering he was doing Spider-Man (the biggest comic at the time) after Ditko. He was also Marvel's art director in the 70s, so he had a big influence on the company as a whole.
>>152107543Biggest Marvel comic, I should say.
>>152107449I really like Romita Jr but I wouldn't rate him as important. I'd rate Jim Lee over him in importance just because his X-men designs are still basically the gold standard.
>>152103836Dave Cockrum?
Maybe we can agree that Romita Sr. is in the top 5, right? Definitely not Jr.Probably Buscema, and either Miller or McFarlane
>>152108237Romita Sr. is the best company man artist marvel ever had.
>>152103836Who else created the most stuff used today?
>>152108255John Byrne created most of the extended X-men characters with Clairmon, and he also fleshed out a ton of the Marvel cosmic stuff on Fantastic Four.
>>152108281>John Byrne created most of the extended X-men charactersNot really.
>>152103836Joe MadureiraChris BachaloMark BagleyJerome OpenaJim Leepicrel artist - Ken Lashley
>>152108876or, at least i THINK it's ken lashley
>>152103836After Ditko and Kirby, it's Steranko, Romita Sr, Byrne, Jim Lee, then maybe Joe Mad
