#ClaremontRun
Diving back into the #ClaremontRun read through tonight, following a short break.

After reading 160 issues, I’m kind of sad there are only 27 left to go. Although the Outback Era reread has been as fun as I’d hoped.

And a GSX1 homage cover starts it off!

Diving back into the #claremontrun read through today, since I finished a book book and caught up on the current pull.

And this is the first time I feel like the end (of the read through) isn’t really that far off.

#ClaremontRun read through, only 11 Uncanny X-Men issues left!

Since we are at the X-Tinction Agenda event, it’s only 9 issues, and I have them all figured I’d read the whole event.

I’ll put any fun stuff I run across below.

Finally finished single issue reread of the #ClaremontRun !
Chris Claremont wrote Uncanny X-Men #94 to #279 - not a typo

So much X-canon, how we think of the X-Men is directly from these pages

Finished the Muir Island Saga. Read X-Men (1991) #1 to #3, since Claremont wrote them after UXM279

Ad for Inferno in Uncanny X-Men #236 (1988).

Looking forward to getting to the Inferno story in my #ClaremontRun read through. Feels like it’s prob worth reading all the other Inferno issues, like I did with Mutant Massacre.

Happy #mutantmonday here’s a panel that shouts out Forbidden Planet in NYC during Inferno in Excalibur #7 (1989).

So many pop culture references in the #ClaremontRun - were also Freddy Krueger and Rambo-ish plots this issue. Prob more Star Wars references in the Claremont run than anything else.

Who doesn’t like receiving some mail? X-Men #96. In decent shape too. 98 and 99 should arrive later this week #ClaremontRun

Know I’m posting a lot abt #ClaremontRun lately - I’m just sad it’s ending (6 issues left).

Had to shout out #JimLee work in X-Men #275. He’s finding another gear.

Just look at this beautiful start to the issue! Fold out 3-page cover, first page, splash/title page. The sheer effort…

Visiting my parents in St. Pete, FL and you know I had to go to a comic shop. They took me to #EmeraldCityComics. Found this #xmen issue for a good price to further complete my #claremontrun. Good selection, friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Inferno story time in the #ClaremontRun read through.

Figured I’d read all the Inferno singles, but didn’t realize 17 of the 39 issues are non-X books (that I don’t have). This is a big jump up from Mutant Massacre and Fall of the Mutants. These’ll have to do.

Reading these right now. I am ridiculously happy when I get to read the Brood issues in the #claremontrun read through.

Anyone else very excited that we should def see some Broodsign when the X-MCU kicks off?!

The hits keep coming in the #ClaremontRun read through. For #248 we see Jim Lee’s first work on the X-Men (though he did previously work on Alpha Flight). What a gift that ended up being.

And we get Nanny and Orphan Maker!

Couldn't sleep last night, so I did late night comic hunting on eBay. Submitted an offer for a copy of X-Men #96 thinking it wouldn't be accepted. It was. Didn't realize it until this morning. Whoops! Now I'll have X-Men #96. First appearance of Moira MacTaggert #ClaremontRun

More #ClaremontRun read through

Decided this last page of UXM #269 drawn by Jim Lee is one of my fav Magneto panels/pages ever

And look, X-Tinction Agenda is up next. Ad came right after the Magneto page. If that doesn’t bring you back next month, don’t know what will.

#ClaremontRun read through

Lots of people talk about UXM #266 and #268, for good reasons.

But here’s a shout-out to #267:
- Gambit first charges a card
- Orphan Maker and Nanny (cont.)
- Storm mentions the X-Men to Gambit

Great paragraph by @ClaremontRun
(from amazon.co.uk/Claremont-Ru...) summing up the appeal of Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler and dropping some truth about self-acceptance into the bargain.
