Mike Zagari never stopped chasing the story. What started as a childhood comic book obsession grew into a career working with Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Lucasfilm, before he walked away to build something entirely his own. @mikezagari.bsky.social www.originsofcreativitypodcast.com/e/mike-zagari/

The energy around the Knicks here in NY (with the fact that I don’t follow Basketball) and the energy around Masters of the Universe again at the same time is great to experience.

In September, we “trained at the X-Mansion” and it was absolutely one of the best experiences of our lives. 🌈 @mikezagari.bsky.social

I finally got a chance to ink my recreation of Marvel’s Classic X-Men #1! I learned from the penciling phase and did this one at 17” x 22”.

Mike Zagari @mikezagari.bsky.social · 12/01/2024

I recreated one of my favorite comic covers of all time, Classic X-Men #1. I challenged myself with no computer, iPad, tracing, or any shortcuts. Inspired by The Art of Arthur Adams book, who shared his final art was based on a John Romita sketch, then later discovered was actually by Tom Morgan.
