Everybody knows that Chris Claremont's original run on Uncanny X-Men, lasting from 1975 to 1991, is the greatest comic book run of all time. But what about the second? Why, of course, that would be Claremont's triumphant return to the X-Men with Revolution in 2000, leading to the launch of X-Treme X-Men with Salvador Larroca.* Now, you can relive that epic story in omnibus form as Marvel releases the X-Treme X-Men by Chris Claremont Omnibus, expected to hit stores next July. Coinciding with the launch of Claremont's Gambit series with Sid Kotian sometime in 2022 as well, it looks like next year will be the year of Chris Claremont, and all we have to say is: it's about freaking time!
