                | "Here's
                        the deal. Jim laid out the entire issue in simple block
                        figures. Not much detail at all. Whilce then tightened
                        up all the pencils over Jim's layouts with detail and
                        texture. I then inked all the figure work. Finally, Jim
                        went in and loosely penciled backgrounds and he then
                        inked all the backgrounds. That's it! We did the whole
                        issue in about 8 or 9 days."

                | I asked Whilce
                  about Uncanny X-Men 267 at SDCC 2004. 
                        He mentioned that there was
                        actually another art team in place originally but they
                        were unable to do it  --that's when Jim, Whilce and
                        Scott were asked to do the issue pretty much at the last
                        minute, in a very short amount of time. 
 In conversation, I mentioned that I especially loved the
                        moody and dark storytelling of this issue (as compared
                        to other Uncanny X-Men issues) and he felt that due to
                        the fact this issue was done so quickly, editors seemed
                        to really have less say on how the issue would be done,
                        and it seemed Jim, Whilce and Scott opted for the more
                        creative and interesting approach.
