A link to The Comics Reporter and a quote:
Rosen's work managed to combine a certain hushed quality with routine clarity and even, one could say, a muscularity achieved through the crowded precision of the kerning. He enabled Miller's unique voice in a way that was quite unique, and the work would have been slightly but I think perceptibly different without him. The long-time letterer's work continues to be seen through Marvel's increasingly aggressive reprint programs.
