Summary

In Episode 95 of CEREBRO, Connor and Marvel writer/artist Jason Loo ring in the New Year with the jocular Jubilation Lee! Created by Chris Claremont and Marc Silvestri, teenage orphan Jubilee used her firework powers to become Wolverine's sidekick, a member of the X-Men, and then the anchor of the book Generation X. Wildly popular with younger readers in the 90s, the character has struggled to maintain her place in the franchise since her heyday, but her iconic status has prevented her from disappearing.

The CEREBRO character file on Jubilee begins at 1:23:30.

(Content Advisory: Jubilee's story includes racism, torture, and brainwashing.)

1:14.7	the birthday celebration for the character we are here to talk about today. Jubilation Lee,
1:22.1	better known as Jubilee, sometimes Jubes, although that's always sounded gross to me, so I don't say it very often.

1:33.6	Oh, I'm ecstatic to be here.
1:36.0	To be on the episode, to talk about, like, one of my, what, top three favorite Marvel characters,

1:48.1	not pass up.
1:49.4	I got to be on this episode.
