Bring on the Brood

Bring on the Brood

or: Silent Thunder

This week, the Longbox-of-Mystery reveals X-Men 165, my first official X-Job. When I brought in the first few pages, the silence was deafening. No one said anything but the panic in the room was palpable. The next batch was received with much hemming and hawing. The third batch, where Storm nearly morphs into one of the brood, was the charm. With a sigh of relief Editor Weezie Jones admits she'd been wondering if she'd made a mistake.

Having dodged the bullet I finish up only to find next issue is double-sized! EEK!Welcome to the big leagues.

Happy Trails,

Smitty
