Chris Claremont, born in London in 1950, is an English comic books and novels writer. He has been working for Marvel for 50 years and has had an unparalleled success: his “Uncanny X-Men” series is legendary.
He first used mutants as a metaphor for all those who are discriminated against by the majority: his stories have established trends in the comics industry and allowed a general reinterpretation of superheroes. Rounding down, it is estimated that he sold more than 750 million comics worldwide.
Chris Claremont will be a Lucca Comics & Games guest in collaboration with Panini Comics and will be present every day of the festival.
