Coming Up: 'Uncanny X-Men: The Chris Claremont Era: An Exploration (Marvel Age of Comics)' by Alex Segura

Out May 13, 2027.

Details:

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.
