Greetings, sir!

I just discovered this board quite by accident (not sure exactly how, heh) and noticed you had a place set aside for you. I thought that was great!

I recently was reading an interview you did with Back Issue magazine a while back (I believe it was a Pro2Pro with Mike Grell) where you talked about your Legion work.

I guess my question is this - When you were working on the Legion, who would you say out of the characters was your most favorite to draw?

Also, have you heard about the Legion cartoon starting this weekend? If you have The CW in your area, you should check it out.

Oh, and Nightcrawler has always been my favorite X-Man. Easy choice when you've got a fuzzy blue elf :)

Phantom Girl was my favorite, with Shadow Lass a close second. No, I hadn't heard about a Legion cartoon. What's the CW? And thanks for your comments about Nightcrawler. He's my main man, and my alter ego.

The CW is basically a TV network combining the WB (the folks who did the Batman and Superman animated series) and the UPN network (home of shows like Veronica Mars).

Phantom Girl's one of the main characters in the version of Legion they're doing in the cartoon, as is Timber Wolf, Lightning Lad, Bouncing Boy, Brainiac 5 and Saturn Girl. I'm still a little miffed they left out Cosmic Boy out of the main group, but they're supposed to be bringing him in for cameos during a couple of the episodes.

I like Cham too, Paty. You couldn't have the Legion without him!
