UNCANNY

The Uncanny X-Men, say, circa 1983.

Aka my childhood. I knew these characters better than most friends and family growing up, and sitting down to draw them was certainly a great trip down memory lane.  The X-Men franchise today is an empire, an army of mutants and students and villains and villains that become headmasters and such.

But back then, they were just... family.
