J2

    (Marvel, 1998-1999)
™ and © Marvel Characters, Inc.

One of the more interesting characters to come from the unsuccessful Marvel2 universe, J2 is high-school nebbish Zane Marko, son of the X-Men villain Juggernaut (long since vanished from Zane’s life. In this story, he’s been exiled to another dimension). But poor Zane hardly seems his father’s son. He’s a skinny weakling and an easy mark for the school bullies. At least he is until one day, when he’s pushed too far and makes a startling transformation into a Gen-Y Juggernaut. In an origin that is lovingly reminiscent of the early Spider-Man stories, Zane chooses to use his powers for good, and thus dons the mantle of J2. Writer Tom DeFalco brings a good deal of charm to this series, with great art by Ron Lim.
