He IS the X-men. JFC my eye is twitching at the juxtaposition of "I'm an X-Men fan" and "Who is Chris Claremont"
My main exposure to X-Men as a kid was X-Men Evolution, but never read those comics. Doesn't mean I don't want to or won't, just never had the opportunity to do so and wouldn't know where to find him. Maybe if there's an Omnibus out.

Ngl, I find it really weird that you're somehow able to talk about comics and X-Men WITHOUT KNOWING WHO CHRIS CLAREMONT IS.

He's the man who made the X-Men what they are today. He wrote the main comic, and most of its spin-offs, for 17 years running. If it wasn't for Claremont, X-Men would only be some half-remembered Silver Age relic, notable solely for the brief period in which the original 60s run was actually good just before it got unceremoniously cancelled.
My X-Men comics knowledge is fairly limited, just a little bit here and there as my main focus at least in regards to comics used to be Spider-Man and the Avengers. Never gave the X-Men much thought beyond the cartoons and first two movies, now that I'm a lot older things are different. Still a hardcore fan, despite my obvious gap in knowledge.

There's no omnibus, Chris Claremont's most famous run on the X-men was 17 years. His most famous storylines are, in no particular order:
- God Loves, Man Kills (an evangelical preacher attempts to launch a crusade to kill all mutants. The story opens with the killing of 2 children not unlike the lynchings of the Deep South0
- Days of Future Past
- Mutant Massacre (Mr Sinister organises the massacre of the Morlocks, a group of mutants who live in the sewers and subways of New York as their powers made it impossible for them to live in "normal" society. Several of the X-men were also severely injured in these attacks)
- The Dark Phoenix Saga.

To put it another way, Chris Claremont is one of the guys responsible for helping to turn the X-men into one of the premier lines for Marvel for nearly 3 decades, even if he was only writing for half of that time. Of the 9 X-men movies, 4 of them were based on his stories.

It's official: You're not allowed to be a mere casual X-Men fan anymore.
Be a casual all you like, but don't come out with pretentious nonsense like 'be faithful to the character' when you don't know the guy created Rogue. Also Emma. Did we mention he created Jubilee and Kitty too? Mystique is one of his. And although he didn't create Jean or Storm, he basically 'created' them in that Storm had no backstory and Jean was the 60's chick the guys had to rescue - he turned her into (Dark) Phoenix.

And now you are all slowly backing away from the crazy guy :p

Hey, I created my kids and they're unrecognizable to me because their bitch mom won't let me see them. So in the long run creating something doesnt mean shit. Does it Sarah? Does it? You'll get your child support when I get the DNA result you fucking whore.
Lad?

Selecting "Other options" and then either "Show her feet" or "Hide her feet" will change how her legs are positioned during front-facing sex. I think this is what's going on here.
Thanks for explaining this. I was a little bit confused
