Explore the Stories Behind the Legends
Beginning in the mid-1970s, Chris Claremont's run on X-Men – including the storylines "Dark Phoenix Saga," "Days of Future Past," "Inferno," "Mutant Massacre," "Fall of the Mutants," and "X-Tinction Agenda" – catapulted the mutant heroes to the top of the sales chart and to endless critical acclaim.
Spurred by sweeping, soap-operatic plots, Uncanny X-Men introduced readers to a complicated, character-driven saga about people who happen to have powers. Claremont's work on the comic was a great example of the craft and a genre-defying and progressive style of storytelling that pushed the medium forward.
Beautifully illustrated with full-color artwork, this entry into MARVEL AGE OF COMICS digs into Chris Claremont's historic 16-year run as writer of Marvel's flagship title.
