Peter David's extended run on Hulk is another one memorable for its length.
PAD does one issue more than Gru's Cap on the old Claremont/X-Men scale.
Tonight's issue of X-Factor opens, quite hilariously, with a mandate to clean up the mess left by X-Factor; and given everything that brought this book together–that's no small task!
In what certainly amounts to a great deal of bias and preference towards Claremont and his...
As UXM grew ever darker and deeper, Kurt Wagner stood out as a rare joyous character in an often bleak series, someone who relished the role of showman, and though Claremont at times punished him for this, he also found spaces to let Kurt thrive. #xmen @GoshGollyWow 1/8
My submission for #SolarEmbraceVol2 hope it's worthy of the volume.

1 week before the deadline, working on something for #SolarEmbraceVol2 lmaoo
Most encounters with Ororo are met with awe, but Claremont's willingness to allow this awe to exist beyond the confines of heterosexual attraction is part of what shades the connection between M'Rinn and Ororo even when it's contextualized by maternal connection.
The second...
Hey there friends, let's talk about a backup story!
Tonight, we're reading the backup to Classic X-Men #22, 'Solace', starring the Wind-Rider herself, Ororo.
As we quickly approach the last of Claremont's consistent entries to these reprints, a form of his storytelling that...

In terms of the romance, Claremont leaves it open, simply explaining that the pair spent some wonderful time together as teens. He only reveals that this time was profound, joyous, and spurred a romantic interest. 8/9
The story is framed around a generic white colonizer (safari hat and all) who holds a lifelong grudge against the pair. Claremont does, however, incorporate some interesting symbolism on the futility of racially-based hatred. 7/9
The punk movement emphasized androgyny as a rejection of gender norms. We see this quite clearly in Storm’s transformation, which comes directly after a pair of life-changing encounters with two of Claremont’s most androgynous characters at the time: Callisto and Yukio. 4/8

...time with any consistency, we'll be reading books outside of the purview of Claremont's stewardship–and the resentment baked into X-Factor means little effort is made to recapture the voices established for these characters.
It was something faced recently with Cockrum's...
If Phoenix was Jean, rather than Jean the Phoenix, it does mean that her development under Claremont can be hand-waved away.
Jean's capacity for rage is present in the story from the moment she's ripped from the safety of her Jamaica Bay cocoon, but her immediate fall...
Claremont's hatred for Scott is terrifying. All I see on these panels is a confused young man who should have been prevented from marrying his dead girlfriend's lookalike, because clearly Maddie didn't like Scott and he didn't like her. +
...when one of his student's most inner desires was just a nod of his approval.
Erik's grief–and turn to alcohol–are seriously gut-wrenching to read, a testament to how believably Claremont paints his hoped-for redemption in the Trial alone.
There's a real tenuous sense to...
