UNCANNY X-MEN By Chris Claremont | The Evolution of an Icon
#xmen #wolverine #marvel
I look back at the first chapter in Chris Claremont's titanic saga on UNCANNY X-MEN, and how the writer and his collaborators ushered in the evolution of the team, their stories, and the X-Men title itself.

    This sounds like a 21st century woke radical version of Swamp Thing. This video turned me off to trying it. I love the New 52 Swamp Thing series.

    I'm a huge fan of your videos, especially your X-Men videos, they have incredible editing and well discussed subjects! I was wondering, do you have plans on making a video for the last portion of the Krakoa Age, Fall of X in preparation for Rise from the Ashes?

    Wow, this really made me want to watch the series again. Seeing it for the first time when it originally aired at 19 years was an experience. Have seen it a couple of times after that, but have only seen the 3rd season once. I found that a bit hard to really get into, but maybe I need to give it another shot.

    Absolute peak X-Men, and I didn't really start reading until the Claremont / Lee / Silvestri years. It's taken me years to realize how incredible Byrne's art was, since by 1989 I already saw him as the 'boring', 'classic' style that Lee and Silvestri were revolutionizing.

    I never particularly followed Julie Cruise outside of tp, i love the music for the show but maybe even thought too arty or floaty or something and maybe not my kind of people to hang out with. but when i heard she passed, something inside me, my heart fluttered a moment. We lost one. We lost one. Knowing her she is on some other plane mystifying and being worderful.

    Hickman’s fantastic four run is potentially the greatest marvel run of all time. In fact, it’s not potentially, it just is.

  • @drewtheunspoken3988
    @drewtheunspoken3988 14 днів тому

    Reading Claremont's X-Men shows how much we've lost during the process of reducing comic book "vocabulary." Modern comics lost their way when they took on a more "cinematic" approach to storytelling. Which is to say, removing narration and thought balloons has taken away the opportunity for deeper storytelling. Modern comics can be entertaining but very few feel like they have any real meat on their bones.

    I do love when people complain about things like modern X-Men (and comics as a whole) by saying it's just a checklist of diversity, and that runs like Claremont suffered no such "faults." Claremont's relaunch was literally a checklist of diversity.

    • @ForEveryKindofGeek
      @ForEveryKindofGeek 17 днів тому

      Honestly Claremont’s time might be one of the greatest indicators of how impactful diversity can be on storytelling. I’d argue it’s the thing that made the X-Men feel more real and fluid than ever before.

    • @McSomething15

      @ForEveryKindofGeek without question. Having a group of people so glaringly different from one another allowed for such a vast array of storytelling.
