X-MANIC MONDAY: JUBILATION LEE


This is what Jubilee might look like if Xavier actually ran a School for Gifted Youngsters instead of a Front for his Morally Questionable Secret Paramilitary Strike Force.

Seriously, why are those kids never in class?  And why don't they have AWESOME prep-school uniforms?

Between 1991 and 1998 most of my free time was spent trying to draw the X-Men like Jim Lee and waiting for my latent mutant powers to manifest themselves.

It was a disappointing childhood.

    I kind of had the hots for Jubilee back in the 90's. This Jubilee is way hotter.

    I'd love to see Wolverine in a prep school uni.
    Awesome sketch Jake.

    You've completely echoed my childhood. I'm still waiting around for this.

    But I think your powers for sketching constantly are pretty freakish, so you have that.

    I just was made to watch the wolverine movie, and all I could think was... I want to see the x-men movie that is like jake's prep scoop drawing. It was a thoroughly disappointing evening. Make this movie! (or comic book!)
