Copyright A.Kitaoka 2004 (March 23) For the Fans, By the Fans Instead of the usual bio section with hundreds of short bios that would need constant updating, Uncanny X-Men Net has decided to create this unique Spotlight On ... category. Each entry will put the focus on one X-related character with a very rich and confusing history, preferably those that are currently a team member in one of the monthly titles. Each character will be featured with a very detailed history, an issue checklist, a costume gallery and important events in the person‘s life will be illustrated with scanned pictures from the actual issues.
