I can't believe how great these books look! Both the condition and the cover art from that period...

Gil Kane was a genius at cramming contorted characters onto the covers and making it work.  :cloud9:

Very under appreciated artist. His work on Conan is also excellent.

I never noticed the credit on this book before, but I'd bet my life that Romita did the layout of the Scorpion.

The face looks "Romita" to me.
I don't value my life much.

:fear:

 

Does anyone know when Romita 1st drew The Scorpion?

His 2nd appearance is ASM 29 and then he doesn't show up again until ASM 145 and Romita didn't do any of these books.

Reading this, my first thought was probably an early Cap or DD, but it looks like those Scorpion appearances were all Sal Buscema or Gene Colan.

A great Kane DD v Scorpion cover was Daredevil 82.

I don't know if ASM #145/146 counts but it might be the only time he touched scorpion. http://www.comicbookdb.com/character_chron.php?ID=444
Romita is listed as an inker along with 3 others on that book, but I don't see him listed as a penciller.  He is also given a cover credit for 145/146, but again sharing it with other artists.
