Here is my fellow Berndt Toast Gang member and great comic book artist (and former Marvel Comics Art Director) John Romita talking about his career with David Armstrong. Thanks to Comic Book Historians for releasing this 2001 interview.
"David Armstrong interviewed Silver & Bronze Age great, John Romita Sr. in 2001 on set at San Diego Comic Con about his entry into comic books with Les Zakarin, first meeting Stan Lee at Timely, his suspense science fiction stories like IT!, working for Famous Funnies, his relationship with Stan Lee in the 1950s, and again in the 1960s, getting inking advice from Joe Maneely, why he joined DC Comics to work on Romance Comics with Zena Brody and Robert Kanigher, discussing Alex Toth, the editorial culture at DC compared to Marvel, Jack Kirby, Martin Goodman, terrible distribution through Independent News, and DC Comics' achilles heel.
"Interview conducted, recorded and copyrighted to David Armstrong. Remastered, edited and postproduction by Alex Grand."
