In the 1970s, X-Men was on the brink of cancellation, but Marvel decided to give the title one more shot. Young writer Chris Claremont was tasked with writing a new team of international X-Men. Five years later, it was the biggest title in comics, and Claremont one of comics’ biggest stars. This film tells the story of Chris and his small team of collaborators, who worked together to tell stories that inspired a generation of comics readers, and led directly to the creation of the blockbuster X-Men film franchise. The story of his groundbreaking seventeen year run on the title is also the story of a company in transition, of how Marvel moved from the free thinking “house of ideas” to a top down corporation, and how the success of the X-Men took away the very freedom that allowed Chris to create. The X-Men is a modern mythology, and this is the story of its creation, in the words of the people who made it happen. directed by: Patrick Meaney starring: Chris Claremont, Louise Simonson, Ann Nocenti, Len Wein 2018 / 71 min / 1.78:1 / English Dolby Digital 2.0 Additional info: Region Free Blu-ray Trailer Director Commentary 30 Minutes of Additional Interview Material with Chris Claremont and his collaborators English SDH subtitles
