Description Jonothon Evan Starsmore ("Jono" to his friends) is a native of London and a mutant who possesses a furnace of psionic energy in his chest. This power first manifested in an explosion during a party he was attending with his girlfriend. Its initial manifestation destroyed much of his chest and lower face and crippled Gayle. As a result of his disfiguration, Jono could only speak via telepathy. He did not eat, drink, or breathe; it was believed that either the psionic energy sustained him without needing his vital organs, or that his body was merely a shell, and he was actually made up of psionic energy. The primary manifestation of his abilities is his ability to fire powerful blasts of psychokinetic force. It had been implied at numerous times that Jono was potentially one of the most powerful mutants to walk the earth.

Jono was a student of the X-men Massachusetts Academy that was run by Emma Frost, the White Queen and Banshee. At that time he served as a member of the team, Generation X. When the school closed down, he was accepted as a member of the main X-Men squad.
Jono was among many mutants depowered by the decimation during the House of M storyline by the Scarlet Witch. Jono was completely healed afterwards by the Clan Akkaba, restoring his body but he took on the pigmentation and appearance of a younger version of Apocalypse.

Jono has yet again resurfaced, and is now using the codename Decibel as a member of the New Warriors led by Night Thrasher and his former GenX teammate, Jubilee.

The blast of energy is well done and you made a good job drawing whatΒ΄s left of his face. Dos his face look normal again, now that he is healed?

Yeah, I don't really like the Apocalypse Extreme Makeover Edition. That was one thing about GENX, although you had your "pretty" kids, you still had the mutant freakiness of Jono, Angelo, and Penny!

Not to forget Paige, she could get pretty freaky with that power of hers, I if I were drawing comics, she would be one of the characters I would LOVE to work with. I could really get creative with that power of hers. I also liked Artie and Leech. A lot of GenX fans hated them, but they were great for comic relief. Skin was the bomb, too. He essentially had a stupid power but he made it cool! I honestly liked everything about that series, they were the most original group of people in a looong time.

Jono's story is so sad. Poor guy.
Really nice work though. The effects are really cool.

Aww, no man! Jono's not shitty! I believe Marvel has overlooked him. He's a complex character that unfortunately hasn't had very good stories.

Chamber rocks. Always has. Excellent work, man. You really captured the effect of what poor Jono's own power did to him. Faved

You are definitely right, Jono does indeed rock. Him and Skin put the cool in GenX. I know he's still around in the NWs as Decibel, but it's not the same! The gave angel back the metal wings, why not give Jono back the psionic furnace?

Really good piece, like it very much and Chamber has always been one of my fav characters from Generation X to X-Men to Weapon X and finally the New Warriors, he's a great character.

StevenVnDoom In reply to ThornedVenom [2008-07-27 20:04:21 +0000 UTC]

Tell me about it. The best comic I ever read with him was a Gen X comic where he meets a deaf and dumb goth girl in a record store. They connect and spend the day together. At the end of the day she gives him her number and kisses his face covering. As he is driving back to the institute he talks about her with his teammate, M. He said that she was perfect, the kind of girl he always dreamed about meeting, but that the life he leads as a mutant would never work with their relationship and he throws the girls number out the window. I found that issue very interesting because it contained almost no action so the reader really got to know him as a character.
