Werner Roth (January 27 1921 –June 1973) was an American comic book artist perhaps best known for immediately succeeding Jack Kirby on Marvel Comics’ The X-Men.Roth’s work began appearing in Marvel Comics then known as Atlas Comics in 1953. Atlas editor Stan Lee has described being impressed with Roth’s portfolio particularly his drawings of women So I took his samples to show [then-publisher] Martin Goodman. I suggested we should use Werner even create a comic for him.
