    A moment of silence.

    That was the annual where The Wedding took place, right? Also, it's kind of a shame the only Paul Ryan I know is the one who's the current Speaker of the House of Representatives.

    RIP.

    Yes, ASM Annual 21 was the wedding.

    Here's what I could find, at least as far as his time drawing Spidey, both in Spider books and other Marvel comics featuring Spidey.

    Thanks. It's heartening to know that his work will live on, even if it's work certain people at Marvel are hell-bent on disavowing.

    Any rumors of Marvel higher-ups mean-spiritedly celebrating his passing because the story he did artwork for no longer "exists"?

    Not making the Marriage fans look good, dude.

    Unless you are taking the piss out of us... in which case, also tasteless.

    Let's please leave the marriage talk out of this; it is silly and also very disrespectful at a moment when a talented creator has sadly left us.

    Back on topic, it's too bad---and a bit surprising---that Paul didn't do more with Spidey. With multiple titles being published for most of the time he was at Marvel, I would have thought he would have had more opportunity but I guess his schedule and Marvel's didn't quite sync up. He had a very nice and traditional style that perhaps didn't fit with the edgier style Marvel began assigning to Spidey in the 1990's

    Yeah, his softer, cleaner and pretty style did not mesh with the gritty and busy 90's aesthetics. Too bad because I really think he could have done wonders with many of the Peter/MJ downtime moments.
