Gray’s marvellous mutants

New Zealand comic book writer and editor of the Marvel Collectors’ Edition line of magazines Scott Gray is interviewed by Comic Book Resources about “his take on the second generation of X-Men, the villains he’ll be pulling in and the fan favorite artist who joins him on the series, ‘Uncanny X-Men: First Class’, which is out in June. Gray says he grew up in New Zealand in the 1970s “when absolutely every Marvel title was available.” Gray told CBR: “I’ve been living in England since the early ’90s, working in the comics industry in a number of guises I wrote the ‘Doctor Who’ comic strip for eight or nine years, and have edited a line of Marvel reprint titles for Panini Comics UK. I even got to resurrect ‘The Mighty World of Marvel!’ Writing an X-Men comic is literally a childhood dream come true for me. EVERYTHING about this is exciting – heck, I can’t wait to see the staples!” Gray has also worked with fellow New Zealander and London-based comic book writer Roger Langridge to produce ‘Fin Fang Four’.
