I was just talking about this run earlier today. It stays strong in my mind, the John Romita Jr/Chris Claremont run on Uncanny X-Men. Rachel as Phoenix, techno organic virus, the Trial Of Magneto, Sir James Jaspers… some of my favourites. And now I have an excuse to buy them all over again. That is if Thomas Mason's recently recoloured page is anything to go by.

Will We Get A Claremont/John Romita Jr Hardcover X-Men Omnibus? (Sadly Not)

The colourist for Marvel collected editions posted on his Facebook page a recolored cover of Uncanny X-Men #199, and confirmed it's for publication.

He was the same fellow who recoloured the covers for Jim Lee's X-Men Omnibus, the Mutant Genesis 2.0 oversized hardcover and several others. So I guess it's safe to say we'll get a Claremont/JRJR hardcover collection soon…

UPDATE: Sadly not. Editor Mark Beazley tweets;

Sorry, Rich, keep fishing…
