From rewriting the rules with Birds of Prey to redefining Red Sonja, Gail Simone has long been one of comics’ most fearless voices. Now, she brings that same energy to The Uncanny X-Men as the first solo female writer to take on Marvel’s flagship mutant title.
In this candid conversation—moderated by Gary Scott—Gail reflects on her trailblazing career, the characters who shaped her, and what it means to finally write the X-Men on her own terms. Expect behind-the-scenes insight, writerly wisdom, and maybe a few unexpected surprises along the way.
Whether you’re a lifelong fan or new to her Uncanny run, this is a rare chance to hear directly from one of the most influential storytellers in comics.
