GENERATION X UNDERGROUND SPECIAL (1998)

Jim Mahfood gets a shot at a Marvel book.

Who?

The creator of the very indie, very underground “Stupid Comics.”

From here, he eventually went on to work in Marvel’s Ultimate line.

This comic is bonkers, not canon (I’m assuming), and full of crazy stories. Bishop is a pimp. The team star in a version of Charlie’s Angels. Jubilee is a Cibo Matto fan. There are black-and-white trading cards. Gen X fight off time travelers Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, and William S Burroughs who are trying to destroy the future.

Very fun, and much needed in the ultra-serious late ’90s.
