He was the Penciler on Uncanny when I became a monthy reader. His stroytelling was pretty solid, and his stylized darkness worked well for the tone of the book during the outback era. Artists during the post-Byrne era tended to burn out (no pun intended) fairly quickly, what with a massive cast that Claremont continued to expand. Silvestri stayed on for the better part of 3 years. I'm sure he was quite happy to take the Wolverine job. He always seemed to have fun with the character.

There were some years we had to do fifteen issues instead of twelve and I had enough trouble doing twelve. Fifteen was a lot of work. The thought of moving over to </i>Wolverine<i> - a single character book featuring one of my favorite characters - was a relief! I was like, 'I'm ready to go.' That turned out to be a great switch for me. I'm happy it happened."</i>Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14580725636327122073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-69948372505501936992016-10-23T15:23:32.644-05:002016-10-23T15:23:32.644-05:00I believe it was Silvester's choice.I believe it was Silvester's choice.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13298753675007196538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-76054654813310434432016-10-23T15:23:12.652-05:002016-10-23T15:23:12.652-05:00Silvestri, that is.
