John Francis Rosenberger (1918 – 1977), also credited as John Diehl or simply John R., was an American comic book artist from after the Second World War until the mid-70s. Educated at the Pratt Institute, he worked primarily in the romance genre of comics, with some forays into superhero, crime, and science fiction. Some of his work appears in Fawcett Comics.

Notable superhero work included:

Cartoonist Fred Hembeck has noted that Rosenberger's superhero work showed his background in the romance genre, with "luscious babes" and a unique proficiency in rendering "expressions of impotent bewildered befuddlement" on the faces of male protagonists.
