Marvel E-I-C Axel Alonso on Wolverine & The X-Men writer Jason Aaron: "Jason is an extremely versatile writer. His run on "Wolverine" was dark and gritty, especially at first, but as the series moved along, it took on the madcap flavor of a B-movie -- especially the kung-fu arc. Very fun.
That said, somewhere toward the end of his runs on "Wolverine" and "Punisher MAX," Jason told me he was eager to skew in a different direction and flex a different set of creative muscles. When the opportunity to launch "Wolverine and the X-Men" emerged at an editorial summit, he immediately leapt on the opportunity to position it as the unique book it eventually became. It's much more lighthearted, fun and, well, bouncy -- and it's really connected with X-Men fans. When I'm at cons, people always come up to me and tell me it's their favorite book."
