Marvel’s Stormbreaker artist Lucas Werneck joins the show to discuss the ultimate influential issue on his artistic career: New X-Men #121 by Grant Morrison and Frank Quietly. What an amazing issue that stands the test of time and even got its own homage duplicate in Giant-Size Jean Grey and Emma Frost in the Krakoan era, drawn by Russell Dauterman. Lucas debuted in the comic book industry in 2016, with works published by DC Comics and BOOM! Studios, and is currently a Marvel exclusive artist, acting both as a penciller and cover artist. Main credits include X-Men: Hellfire Gala, Immortal X-Men, The Trial of Magneto, and Marauders.
Plus, we have new theme music now by Grammy-nominated, BAFTA-winning composer Austin Wintory (Journey). We’re so humbled to have original work by this iconic composer!
New X-Men #121 was published in February 2002. In that same month:
- The top film at the time: John Q
- The top song at the time: “How You Remind Me” by Nickelback
- The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring wins the BAFTA for Best Picture
