A legend within the comics industry, John Byrne shot to fame after his celebrated run with Chris Claremont on Uncanny X-Men, which took a flagging title and turned it into one of the greatest success stories of all time. Since then Byrne has worked as an artist and writer on nearly every title in Marvel's pantheon of superheroes in a career that has spanned nearly 40 years.
