    Interesting to get these tidbits from the OG source. Loved this art. By far, my favorite work of his. Truly one of the best art teams of the 90's (Lee/Williams). I still look at those X-Men books and drool over them.
    Found out this book thanks to a video from the Cartoonist Kayfabe channel. Those guys love the art as much as anyone does and great to see two pros go into detail into the art.

    I have every issue Jim Lee ever did with Marvel and was at San Deigo back then. He was great and gave me some free advice on my artwork and he even had a laugh due to we both have the same name. So I got right at an hour of his time and he gave me a mammoth hill of information to fix everything in my art that was wrong. I will never forget that even after 30 years I still remember that. and I am so grateful for everything he told me.
