Jim Calafiore Checklist

Andy James · Jul 9, 2002, 12:00 pm

Hey just me again, can Jim or anyone else help me construct a list of book Jims artisitc talents have been seen in for marvel books?
the only one i know for definite is exiles but i recognise the name from many more marvel comics but i cant remeber at the mo what!! any help would be greatly appreciated from you Jim

Jim Calafiore · Jul 9, 2002, 07:25 pm

OK, I'll try and give you as much as I can remember; I can't recall all the issue #'s off hand, and there are a bunch of covers I did that I can't put an issue # to, like the Kazar cover and Angel vs Gambit cover, both done for issues of what if?
This is semi-chronological:
3 issues of Force Works
Century one-shot
Two issues of Iron Man (One was I think 325, with the young Tony Stark and a painted wrap cover I did)
What If? 94 (with Juggernaut)
X-Men 2099 Annual
Hybrid back-up story in one of the Venom minis
Two issues of X-Men Unlimited (one starred Nightcrawler; the other was a few pages in one with the Silver Surfer)
Covers painted for all six issues of FF Unplugged
A couple covers for War Machine
Wrap painted cover for the Spiderman and the X-Men trade
5 or six (maybe 7) issues of Deadpool
Two issues of Black Panther (with Manape as the villain)
Exiles 5,6,11 and 16&17 (not out yet)
Captain Marvel (32 I think)
Pin-ups in X-men millenial Visions (the first one & the second one) and in Marvel Knights millenial Visions.
That's it off the top of my head; sorry for the blatant lack of issue numbers; if you try to do any kind of search for my credits, check the spelling on my last name: Calafiore (Sometimes I don't even get it right)

briancaffrey · Jul 9, 2002, 08:24 pm

The issues of Black Panther were 34 and 35. Deadpool was 41-45, IIRC.

Benjamin Ong · Jul 9, 2002, 11:04 pm

Now, beam me up, Scotty

:p

*Brian Wilkinson* · Jul 10, 2002, 12:43 am

so, when is marvel going to realize they have a major talent on their hands and tie you down to a title as the full time artist?!?

Andy James · Jul 10, 2002, 06:37 am

Hands down, the absolute best issue of either What If series! I've lost count the number of times I've read that issue. You draw the best Juggernaut, Jim!

With a surname like mine, I can definitely relate!

Andy James · Jul 10, 2002, 03:35 pm

I'd sign it. It's scary how many titles have flashy artwork, but don't tell the story very well.

DeadmanWade · Jul 22, 2002, 10:37 am

Deadpool:Funeral For A Freak 1 and 4

KOBE27 · Jan 14, 2003, 05:09 pm

Too bad you didn't ask for a checklist on Jim's work outside the Big Two. I first saw it WAAY back when (must have been 91 or 92) I started buying his CAMELOT ETERNAL series from Caliber.
Those were the days.
Incidentally, a young chap by the name of Ed Brubaker was also publishing his LOWLIFE stories on Caliber.

The X-Men Millenial Visions 2000 was the Professor W pin-up

The Marvel Knights Millenial Visions 2001 he did a Man-Thing pin-up now that was an awsome, one of my personel favs

Jim Calafiore · Feb 11, 2003, 07:59 am

Kobe27: A Camelot Eternal fan?! Wow. (Or maybe just reader, you didn't say if you liked it.) Caliber were fun days; Independents can be more satisfying work, especially since I wrote everthing too. And I can give a full checklist for that very easily since it was not too much:
Progeny (graphic novel)
God's Hammer (3 issue mini)
Camelot Eternal
Mr. Trianglehead (3 issue mini which saw only one issue hit the stands, because I started getting regular work from Valiant which paid actual money!)
Shorts in a couple issues of Caliber Presents.
Caliber was a great starting ground for a bunch of creators.

Abyss: Thanx. That was one of my favorites too; it took a long time. (And like the Professor W piece, I also worte the text/concept.)
I also did the Exiles page for the second X-Men Millenial Visions book.

Sorry for the delay in posting; see the QUESTIONS FOR JIM posting.

KOBE27 · Feb 11, 2003, 09:43 pm

Hey, Jim
good to hear from you again. (I was seriously starting to get worried).
YES, I was most definitely a Camelot Eternal fan. I can't believe I didn't actually mention it. Way back then, I sent you a letter (it was handwritten, if you can believe it) and you were nice enough to sent me a letter back (also handwritten --nice touch). I'm pretty sure I still have it around somewhere. We talked about the storyline (certain divergences from the Arthurian myth). I'm trying to remember if you mentioned back then if the baby was Lancelot's.
I do remember those issues from Valiant. I guess that's when I got the fact we'd seen the end of Camelot.
(I KNEW I'd seen at least one issue of Mr. Trianglehead.)
Anyway, it's nice to know you're doing well.
Take care.

DCUnited · Jun 11, 2003, 11:17 pm

Anything else new coming out soon? Any more work on Exiles?

Jim Calafiore · Jun 19, 2003, 03:49 pm

OK, had some trouble logging in recently....
Coming out very soon, is the last two issues of Black Panther, and I mean the last two issues. I helped bury it.
I've a 2-issue arc on Exiles out soon, issues 31 & 32, to be followed by either 33 or 34 or both. I'm discussing it with the editor now.
Also a series solicited in the new Previews (I think) called Faction Paradox.
That's about it for now.

norgsnolan · Oct 6, 2003, 10:01 am

Jim, just wondering if happened to do some art for an action man coloring book? the reason i ask is that my little brother was coloring a picture that looked familar.

and what else have you worked on out side of comics.

Action Man? Not that I recall. I'd like to see it though if you can scan it.

Outside of comics: Not a whole bunch. Before getting into comics, I did design and illustration on a freelance basis, stuff you would not have seen. I've worked on some animation projects recently which are waiting to go to pitch phase soon.
Recently I did a bunch of spot illustrations for FACTION PARADOX; BOOK OF THE WAR for MadNorwegian press.
But I'm not sure there's much outside of comics you'd have seen, unless I'm forgetting something.

Rayeye · Mar 28, 2005, 11:12 am

Here's what I've found so far about Jim's work for Marvel:

Black Panther vol. III 34, 35, 55, 56, 61, 62
Captain Marvel vol. V 32
Century: Distant Sons
Deadpool vol. I 37, 42-45, 61, 64
Excalibur vol. I 119
Exiles 5, 6, 11, 16, 17, 20-22, 31, 32, 34, 38-45, 49, 52, 53, 55-57, 60, 61
Force Works 9-12
Iron Man vol. I 324, 325
Marvel Knights Millennial Visions (Man-Thing: Shattered nexus)
Venom: the Hunted (second stories)
What If …? vol. II 94
X-Men Millennial Visions 1 (Professor W’s X-Men)

Thanx; excellent list. The only other things I can think of off the top of my head are an X-Men 2099 annual, and I did at least one other cover for What If?; I can't remember the numbers. The two cover-onlys I did were Ka-Zar and Angel/Gambit.
Glad you like the designs in Exiles. I try to do as much as I can within the requirements of the story.

Captain America · Apr 3, 2005, 06:22 pm

Don't forget the painted cover to that Spider-Man / X-Men trade that I have

I think that was from '97...?

Yeah, a week ago I went to comic store and I found the X-Men 2099 Special. It contains 3 stories, the 3rd one is drawn by you. Very cool Special by the way.

Jen0608 · Jul 4, 2008, 10:03 pm
