Chris Claremont is a legendary writer who defined “X-Men” for over 15 years, co-creating characters like Phoenix, Mystique, and Rogue. His tenure introduced soap opera dynamics, long-term subplots, and character-driven arcs that reshaped superhero storytelling. With collaborators like John Byrne and Paul Smith, Claremont brought emotional complexity, feminist undertones, and literary ambition to mainstream comics. His voice helped elevate serialized storytelling and turned the X-Men into cultural icons.

Published in June 1983, this issue of Epic Illustrated exemplifies Marvel’s commitment to creator-driven, genre-defying comics. Highlights include “Marada the She-Wolf” by Chris Claremont and John Bolton, “The Sacred and the Profane” by Dean Motter and Ken Steacy, and a standout contribution by Japanese mangaka Kaze Shinobu, whose fusion of manga and Western cartooning adds a radical cross-cultural note. A testament to the magazine’s expansive vision, this issue captures the spirit of experimentation that defined early ’80s speculative comics.
