In December 1993,
Image Comics came out with "The Art of Homage
Studios", a 50 page comic book featuring
pinups, commentary and tons of info on Homage Studios
including this blurb on Uncanny X-Men 267 as it relates to their
studio's history.
"...Then a desperate call came from Marvel. An issue
of The Uncanny X-Men was running late --could these guys pencil
and ink it in fourteen days? The three went to work.
Each man played to his strengths, with Jim doing the layouts,
Whilce rendering, Scott inking, and Jim going back in to add
effects and finishes. The book was done in just nine
days. Working together made them a powerful force, the
three artists realized..."
The book also featured some cool early 90s style art including
pinups from Jim and Whilce, as well as art from Marc Silvestri,
Joe Chiodo, J. Scott Campbell, Joe Madureira, Aron Wisenfeld,
Ryan Benjamin, Brandon Peterson, Scott Clark, Brett Booth, Alex
Garner... even a pinup of the White Wolf by super-inker Scott Williams.
