Of all the artists that have drawn Beast's new look, I think your interpretation is my favorite by far. Thanks for posting this!

So will this be the natural successor to Wolverine & The X-Men? The artwork looks fun as hell.

why are there "x"s everywhere? Is it so the inker can know to put pitch black or something?

Terrific drawing. I love your work.
Wolverine's mask has always bothered me. It's too Batman. I like the way Frank Quitely draws Wolvie with no mask and a simpler costume. Somebody who has lived as long as he has would have dropped the Halloween costume long ago. Do you have to adhere to published style sheets from Marvel when it comes to costume? or can you dress the characters any way you want?
I like your tall Warbird. She needs to be more Amazon than she's been drawn in the past. 7-feet tall, more physically imposing, maybe slightly irritated with the puny humans around her.
And, while I'm ranting, Storm's look has always fallen a bit short in my opinion. She has never looked African to me. With her almond-shaped eyes, thin nose and lips, and white hair, she lacks any clear racial identity. It's almost a Michael Jackson racial-denial thing. Is this look an unintentional racist choice? Are Marvel's readers afraid of African facial features? Why not draw her with darker skin, a broad nose, fuller lips and an afro? I bet the X-Men fans would love it. Pluralism is the way!
Sorry about the rant. I had some things to get off my chest, I guess.
Carry on. I love your work. I'm a big fan.

100% agree about Storm. I can't get over how absolutely European some artist draw her. My favorite Storm is done by David Yardin (and Ed did a very respectable job here). Sexy but powerful (looks like a Goddess) and actually looks African lol.

Yes. David Yardin's drawings are incredible. I really like his version of Storm.
This is a good one too:

I love the subtle details he added like the lightning earrings and the thick electrically insulated shoes. And she looks African! I would love to see Mooncalfe draw an entire X-men comic.

Yea I really like Mooncalfes work. He definitely did Storm justice. I think he'd have to age her a little for the regular series as she looks like a teenager in his rendition but great nonetheless.

I like a tall Warbird too and I agree about a more ethnic Storm....thanx for the input!

Fabulous work on the expressions -- you can just hear poor Firestar thinking, "What did I just sign on for?"
And that is a damn fine piece of work on Northstar, if I may go all fan-thing for a moment.

Ugh I love this! It makes me want to break out the inking brush so badly. Awesome pencils!

The expression on Beast is priceless and makes it for me
