About the Author

Writer Jason Aaron’s early collaboration with artist Cameron Stewart on DC/Vertigo’s The Other Side was named one of the Washington Post’s Best Comics of 2007. His next project, Scalped, garnered industry-wide praise and led to a guest spot on Wolverine, beginning Aaron’s long association with Logan on various titles, as well as the rest of Marvel’s merry mutants on books including X-Men: Schism, Wolverine & the X-Men and Amazing X-Men. Aaron rocked the Marvel Universe with Original Sin and unfolded a status-quo-shattering Asgardian epic across multiple Thor titles. He was the ideal choice to steer the Rebel crew of Star Wars into new adventures on the series’ return to Marvel, and he ushered in a new era for the publisher with Marvel Legacy. In the wake of that one-shot, he took on Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in Avengers and welcomed another iconic property back to the House of Ideas with Conan the Barbarian.

Artist Mike Mayhew is known for his photo-realistic and painterly renderings. Mayhew began his career at DC, and soon made a name for himself penciling Topps’ Zorro and Lady Rawhide. In 2000, he helped relaunch Vampirella with fully rendered pencils. Mayhew soon brought his art to Marvel, becoming a prolific cover artist on such titles as Elektra, Mystique, She-Hulk and Storm, and providing illustrations for two Mary Jane prose novels. X-Men Origins: Jean Grey was Mayhew’s first fully painted comic; his work has been featured in major titles including Avengers and Justice League. He illustrated The Star Wars for Dark Horse, an adaptation of George Lucas’ original rough screenplay.

A copy of How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way sparked Leinil Francis Yu’s interest in comics when he was 11. Whilce Portacio’s tutelage helped him land his first mainstream comics work on Wolverine in 1997. Following a successful run, Yu took on such titles as Uncanny X-Men, X-Men, Superman: Birthright and Ultimate Wolverine vs. Hulk. After an extended period laying the groundwork in New Avengers, he and writer Brian Michael Bendis turned the Marvel Universe upside down with Secret Invasion, and the Marvel mainstay has subsequently worked on event comics including Avengers & X-Men: Axis and IVX, and such blockbuster titles as Star Wars.

Artist Jorge Molina’s Marvel credits include Captain America: Man Out of Time, Avengers: The Initiative, and both the initial A-Force limited series and the first four issues of the ongoing book. Molina has shown great affinity for Marvel’s mutants in the pages of X-Men, Wolverine & the X-Men and X-Men Blue.
