His writing has slipped in a lot of people's opinions; but I like X-Men Forever. I have, however, found some of his post-X-Men work a bit self-indulgent. Well, Sovereign Seven. While I liked it, it felt like he knew the characters, so why don't we?

"The title met with middling success and was cancelled after 36 issues, in June 1998, after which Claremont returned to Marvel." - Geez, I'd almost KILL somebody for 36 straight issues of Alpha Flight! And that was considered a 'middling success'?!? Geez, I guess that everything after Volume 1 has been just a speck in a gnat's eye, eh?


By the way, this story actually sounds interesting to me...thanks for the tip, I might check it out in the future (or in the past, depending upon which direction my radium-powered cuisinart-capacitor takes me!).

And i see it was 36 issues, plus two annuals! Sweet!

Well, things have changed. And it was a 90s title, though don't take that the wrong way... Oddly, I remember it being longer.
I had a letter published somewhere in all that, so if you get the floppies, look for it!
