This sparks a big round of moping before he saves some unknown royalty from Arcade's Murderworld to make himself feel better. (It's what passes for entertainment in the cosmic set, I guess.) But she has to augment her power with others' life forces, and we get a retelling of the original M'kraan Crystal storyline, with diminishing returns, as Rachel has to decide whether to sacrifice the universe to prevent the Beyonder from ruling over it all.Īt the same time, Nightcrawler is thrown into a crisis of faith after coming face to face with a being that's essentially god. A big part of the problem is that it gets pulled into the Secret Wars II crossover, which leads to a lot of ponderous stuff with the Beyonder.Īs part of trip to Earth to explore what it's like to be human, this god-like figure gives Rachel Summers enough power to potentially kill him. I'm a big fan of Chris Claremont's X-men run, but this collection is a mixed bag. Claremont was also a contributor to the Wild Cards anthology series. In the 1980s, he also wrote a science fiction trilogy about female starship pilot Nicole Shea, consisting of First Flight (1987), Grounded! (1991), and Sundowner (1994). This trilogy continues the story of Elora Danan from the movie Willow. Outside of comics, Claremont co-wrote the Chronicles of the Shadow War trilogy, Shadow Moon (1995), Shadow Dawn (1996), and Shadow Star (1999), with George Lucas.
He also wrote a few issues of the series WildC.A.T.s (volume 1, issues #10-13) at Image Comics, which introduced his creator-owned character, Huntsman. Chris Claremont is a writer of American comic books, best known for his 16-year (1975-1991) stint on Uncanny X-Men, during which the series became one of the comic book industry's most successful properties.Ĭlaremont has written many stories for other publishers including the Star Trek Debt of Honor graphic novel, his creator-owned Sovereign Seven for DC Comics and Aliens vs Predator for Dark Horse Comics.
