''X-Men (Chris Claremont)'' consisted of mostly the entire Franchise/XMen line [[LongRunners beginning in 1975 and ending in 1991]]. What is astonishing about this it was almost entirely architected and written by one man-Creator/ChrisClaremont. He took charge of the X-Men [[YoungAndInCharge when he was 25]] and completely revamped from [[Creator/StanLee Stan]] [[Creator/JackKirby and Jack’s]] odd bunch to Marvel’s most financially successful franchise and wrote the best-selling comic of all time.

What Claremont did was completely revolutionary - both for the X-Men and comics as a whole. He introduced hundreds of characters and revamped pre-existing ones. Claremont very made the X-Men a GenreBusting series- it went from classic superhero stories to ScienceFiction to SoapOpera to social commentary and [[GenreRoulette many others usually at the same time]].
