Michael Kaluta reflects on his journey of creating Madame Xanadu, a mystical fortune-teller introduced in 1977 by Joe Orlando. Initially inspired by an unnamed hostess, Kaluta captures her essence through art, feeling like an observer from a distance. As Madame Xanadu evolved, she became more complex and elusive, challenging him to portray her as a deeper character. Michael also highlights collaborators Matt Wagner and Amy Reeder Hadley, who are expanding on Madame Xanadu's history in this new series.
