Gen-Nixed

In follow-up to last week's rumor regarding a relaunch, we caught up with Scott Lobdell to check out if a reteaming with Chris Bachalo was still on the cards. He told ATR, "Dude, I would team up with Chris Bachalo on filling out a crossword puzzle! Is there any writer alive who wouldn't?! But the truth is we're both incredibly busy guys! Between ALL NEW ALL DIFFERENT ALPHA FLIGHT and the spin-off books I am pushing -- not to mention my chaotic feature film and tv pilot writing career (look at this space for future announcements!), I couldn't possibly commit myself to a GENERATION X relaunch, no matter how appealing it is!"

Once you get Scott started, he doesn't stop... The scribe continued, "And anyone who has seen Chris's latest work on CAPTAIN AMERICA (and who hasn't?!) knows not only is he pencilling and inking the book, he's coloring it as well! Heck, give the man a stapler and he'll be a one man comic factory!"

Lobdell wrapped up by saying, "In all seriousness, from the very first issue of GENERATION X it was clear to me that I was fortunate to work with a master storyteller -- and I only became a better writer for the experience of working together! But Chris Bachalo needs me putting words over his art like the Mona Lisa needs a beard, mustache and eye patch! Whatever his post-CAPTAIN AMERICA project is, you can bet I'll be the first in line to buy it!"

This Has A "Backing Bachalo" Factor Of Nine Out Of Ten
