About the Author
Scott Lobdell wrote both Uncanny X-Men and X-Men during the 1990s. He also launched Generation X and Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix, and penned Alpha Flight and Fantastic Four. Elsewhere, he wrote Dark Horse's Buffy the Vampire Slayer with Fabian Nicieza, Wildstorm's Gen13, Top Cow's Darkness, and IDW's Ghostbusters: Displaced Aggression and Galaxy Quest. Lobdell scripted Stan Lee's animated film Mosaic and has performed as a stand-up comedian.

Since his start on the New Universe's Psi-Force and backup stories in Classic X-Men, Fabian Nicieza has written most of Marvel's major super-teams -- including Alpha Flight, the Avengers, the New Warriors, the Thunderbolts and the X-Men. Together with artist Rob Liefeld, Nicieza transformed New Mutants into the blockbuster X-Force. The writer also tackled solo heroes ranging from Cable and Deadpool (later combined in Cable & Deadpool) to Gambit and Nomad. He edited Marvel's Star imprint, contributed to multititle X-events like "X-Cutioner's Song" and "Phalanx Covenant," and wrote various "pre-modern" limited series such as Adventures of Captain America and Citizen V and the V-Battalion. Elsewhere, he has written both JLA and Justice League Adventures, The 99, Turok, X-Files, and others.

An industry veteran, artist Brandon Peterson got his big break penciling Uncanny X-Men. Following a stint at Top Cow, Peterson returned to Marvel -- illustrating such titles as Magneto Rex, Astonishing X-Men and X-Men. Since serving as CrossGen's lead artist, art director and vice president, Peterson's Marvel credits include such series as Ultimate X-Men, Ultimate Extinction and Strange.
