And the tales he imparts in interviews and at conventions, like the recent Phoenix Comicon, are larger than life, dynamic, and filled with action, drama, and humor.Ĭlaremont may not have invented the X-Men (that was Stan Lee's doing) or its most iconic character Wolverine (credit: Len Wein and Roy Thomas), but he did help give Marvel's fabled mutants more depth, grandeur, gravitas, and - most importantly - a second lease on life after re-igniting interest in anything X-related after a rather fallow period in the early '70s when cancellation loomed.
His contributions as a writer for Marvel Comics are the stuff of legend, specifically to the X-Men canon. Chris Claremont has a yen for spinning epic yarns, either in comic book form or when talking with fans.
