Episode 72: Exclusive X-Men Writer Chris Claremont...
- Home
Excalibur by Chris Claremont . Working with Chris was really my first experience of 'the Marvel way'. It took a bit of getting used to because, with full scripts, you tend to think that the writer has everything nailed down and you can waste time figuring out what isn't working. Chris's stream of consciousness plotting is terrific to work from.

Before the Phoenix Saga: UXM 94-100: If you can find them, the way to read these is to find Classic X-Men #’s 1-44. These re-print Giant-Size X-Men #1 through UXM #138. The first 44 issues of Classic X-Men contain an extra 12 page story by Claremont. These stories are great! They are often more personal stories then you get in the main comic and he...
UXM Annual 4 UXM 139, 140 Days of Future Past. UXM 141 and 142. Fan favorite. One of my favorites. They really don’t make comics like this anymore. UXM 143-150.Issue 143 is Byrne’s last issue, also a great Kitty Pryde adventure. Issue 150 is a great Magneto issue. UXM Annual 5 Avenger’s Annual 10. Rogues first appearance. This is a must-read. You w...
Marvel Graphic Novel 4: The New Mutants.The beginning of a legend. Marvel Graphic Novel 5: God Loves Man kills. Technically this story occurs between UXM 167 and 168. A fan favorite. Read this for a better understanding of the Messiah War cross-over event. NM 1-7. Ya baby! The first UXM spin off. Jim Shooter commanded it, Claremont wrote it. You sh...
Mutant Massacre. The first mutant cross-over event! For the full event, check out Comic Book Herald’s Mutant Massacre reading order.
Fall of the mutants.More cross-over fun! X-Factor #24 to #25, Power Pack #35, Captain America #339, X-Factor #26, Uncanny X-Men #225 to #226, Incredible Hulk #340, Uncanny X-Men #227, New Mutants #59 to #61 – Daredevil 252, Fantastic Four #312 NM 61 XF 26 Excalibur Special Edition 1: The sword is drawn, Excalibur 1-5: Shadowcat, Nightcrawler, Rache...
Inferno: XF33-40, X-Terminators #1-4, UXM 239-243, NM 71-73, and XF Annual #4. Excalibur 6 and 7are also part of this event, but across the pond. Excalibur is fun, but not really essential reading.
Days of Future Present: A future Franklin Richards is at the center of this cross-over event. UXM Annual 14, Fantastic Four Annual 23, XF Annual 5, NM Annual 6. NM Summer Special 1:Ann Nocenti wrote this. Not essential. XF 52-59 Excalibur #31 to #41
Xtinction Agenda: Awesome art by Jim Lee. The trade paper-back includes some earlier UXM issues that set the stage for this cross-over event concerning the fate of Genosha. UXM 270, XF 60, NM 95, UXM 271, XF 61, NM 96, UXM 272, XF 62, NM 97. UXM 273-277 XF 63-68 New Mutants #98 to #100: End of the title (for now), and the debut of Deadpool.
Muir Island Saga: UXM 278-279, XF 69, UXM 280, XF 70. This is it! The conclusion to Claremont’s epic. Claremont actually stopped writing by UXM 280. X-Factor #71 to #75: Peter David’s time writing X-Factor begins, with an all-new all-different lineup of Madrox the Multiple Man, Strong Guy (Guido), Quicksilver, Havok, Wolfsbane, and Lorna Dane! X-Me...
