WIZARD WORLD EAST: X-MEN PANEL

Marc Silvestri's New X-Men story begins in December and Salvador Larroca will become the new regular artist of Uncanny X-Men, it was revealed Saturday at the X-Men panel at Wizard World East in Philadelphia.

Silvestri is the one-time Uncanny X-Men artist who went on to found Top Cow Productions. He is teaming with writer Grant Morrison beginning with New X-Men #151.

"I'm having a great time," said Silvestri, who is already working on his second issue, after the panel at the Top Cow booth. "How can anybody not want to work with Grant Morrison. It's a lot of fun, and the second issue is turning out better than the first."

Details of the arc are sketchy, but Silvestri did confirm the story takes place in the future and that a Sentinel appears in his first issue.

Larroca is currently drawing Namor after two years on X-Treme X-Men. His first issue of Uncanny will be early next year.

A second 21 Down series by Jimmy Palmiotti, Justin Gray and Jesus Saiz will follow after #12, and the book will move into the Eye of the Storm mature readers imprint.

"It's not a mature book, but it is a mature book in a way," Palmiotti said at the WildStorm panel at Wizard World East in Philadelphia on Saturday. "We didn't write down. It's really a fine line with this book because we did push the envelope."
