The Claremont Runさんのイラストまとめ

The story begins in media res, with Wolverine already badly wounded by a sneak attack from Lady Deathstrike and the Reavers. He begins the story as an animal, incapable of reason or speech, every bit his namesake. 2/7

In “Wounded Wolf” from UXM #205, Claremont uses his most complex and detailed symbolic vocabulary in order to tell a story that illuminates Logan’s constant inner turmoil and ultimate inner desire, defining the character more concretely than ever. #xmen @wolversteve 1/7

Claremont had never wanted to expand the X-line, but Marvel’s business model needed spin-offs. Claremont, already overworked, accepted the spin-offs so long as he could write them, to at least maintain some creative direction over his beloved franchise. 2/4

“One unexpected side benefit of showing females as leaders is how their less impassive demeanour makes it okay for men to show emotional warmth, doubt, vulnerability and other qualities that might otherwise be considered unproductively effeminate.” (Cooper 197) 2/4

Revisiting Dark Phoenix holds the potential to diminish the impact of the original story, but in UXM 175, Claremont was able to use the shadow of the Phoenix to craft a compelling, character-advancing follow-up to the X-Men’s most iconic storyline #xmen #DarkPhoenix 1/7

Also of interest, comparatively, is the fact that where Stoker’s Mina is very much controlled and manipulated by the men surrounding her, it’s actually Storm who gets all the agency in Claremont’s version of the story. She decides. She takes care of their Dracula problem. 5/6

This reading is actually quite consistent with the ways in which the X-Men restrain Storm’s primal nature throughout the entirety of the run - most notably in channeling her Goddess-like powers toward a socially acceptable mission in a sort of metaphorical sublimation. 4/6

Stoker’s “Dracula” is a story of repressed feminine sexual desire (not unlike Dark Phoenix) in which Mina Harker must choose between her passionate, sinful attraction to the Count and a more practical relationship with her dull fiancée Jonathan (so Logan/Jean/Scott, kind of). 2/6

Their paths would cross again in 1985, when Moore was lured to write a 3 page Magneto story in “Heroes for Hope,” a charity X-Men comic designed to raise funds for famine relief in Africa. Moore had sworn never to “work” for Marvel, so he did it for free. 3/5
