About the Author

Industry legend Chris Claremont is best known for his epic sixteen-year run on Uncanny X-Men. Claremont's focus on the themes of prejudice and tolerance struck at the hearts of comics fans, and he built an unparalleled following during the next three decades. Under his pen, the X-Men franchise spawned a vast array of spin-offs, many of them written by Claremont himself. His other credits include Iron Fist, Ms. Marvel, Power Man and Spider-Woman. Claremont has returned to the X-Men universe in New Exiles, GeNext, X-Men Forever, Chaos War: X-Men and Nightcrawler.

Artist Mary Wilshire's career at Marvel Comics is perhaps defined by her portrayal of three very different redheaded heroines: Red Sonja, Firestar and -- in a movie adaptation -- the Little Mermaid. Her further credits include work with such diverse characters as Ka-Zar, Power Pack, Spider-Man, Barbie and Conan, while the many accomplishments of her wider career in illustration including designing the Blues Brothers logo.

Three different incarnations of Cloak and Dagger were only a few of Rick Leonardi's artistic achievements for Marvel. His other credits include Uncanny X-Men, New Mutants and Spider-Man 2099. At DC, he drew Batman family titles Batgirl and Nightwing, as well as comic/film crossover Green Lantern vs. Aliens. At Event Comics, he penciled Painkiller Jane.
