"Bringing David’s amazing scripts to life with my drawings has been an adventure! I love these characters so much and often I feel as though I’m living the journey with them" - Federico Mele

The Ghost Rider/Wolverine 'Weapons of Vengeance' storyline was a monstrous hit, in part because Geoff Shaw and I introduced the Hellverine, a version of Logan with a flaming skull and flaming claws...here's more mayhem and occultism and hellfire on the horizon...I'm joining forces with powerhouse artist Raffaele Ienco, and we've got huge, horrifying plans for the Hellverine" - Benjamin Percy
