Chris Claremont is a writer of American comic books, best known for his 16-year (1975-1991) stint on Uncanny X-Men, during which the series became one of the comic book industry's most successful properties.
Claremont has written many stories for other publishers including the Star Trek Debt of Honor graphic novel, his creator-owned Sovereign Seven for DC Comics and Aliens vs Predator for Dark Horse Comics. He also wrote a few issues of the series WildC.A.T.s (volume 1, issues #10-13) at Image Comics, which introduced his creator-owned character, Huntsman.
Outside of comics, Claremont co-wrote the Chronicles of the Shadow War trilogy, Shadow Moon (1995), Shadow Dawn (1996), and Shadow Star (1999), with George Lucas. This trilogy continues the story of Elora Danan from the movie Willow. In the 1980s, he also wrote a science fiction trilogy about female starship pilot Nicole Shea, consisting of First Flight (1987), Grounded! (1991), and Sundowner (1994). Claremont was also a contributor to the Wild Cards anthology series.
Gems include Magneto convincing Rachel to stand down, another Barry Windsor-Smith Storm issue, the Brotherhood becoming the Freedom Force, & the eponymous story
Un volum pe care îl trec la recuperări, chit că cele 5-6 numere adunate aici nu prea au multe în comun. Ba din contră, numărul 198 dedicat lui Storm e un fragment dintr-o poveste mai largă despre care nu știi cum a început și unde vrea să ajungă, așa că e cel puțin derutant ce se întâmplă aici. Câteva numere ok, ținta fiind cel dedicat judecării lui Magneto de către un tribunal uman internațional. Număr, la fel, mediu, ca mai toate de pe aici. Probabil e mult mai potrivit să citești un omnibus pentru a înțelege perioada și poveștile de context. Dar, așa mi-am luat volumașul, așa l-am citit :)
