I'm not sure I can think of anything comic related that I disagree with more. Romita was smooth and elegant. Andru was jagged and jarring.

I'm much more forgiving of Andru's war stuff from the 50s and 60s though.

Agree that JR SR was consistent as all get out and his figures always had movement and placing w/ the surroundings that seemed natural. Andru's City spatial effects were excellent though. Andru's faces always also had wonky jawlines..JR's women were beautiful. Just  MHO.

Romita for me as well.

Superb figure work, and a fantastic dark, gritty inking style.
