A copy of How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way sparked Leinil Francis
Yu's interest in comics when he was 11. Whilce Portacio's tutelage

1997. Following a successful run, Yu took on such titles as Uncanny
X-Men, X-Men, Superman- Birthright and Ultimate Wolverine vs. Hulk.

worked on event comics including Avengers & X-Men- Axis and IVX,
and such blockbuster titles as Star Wars.
