Claremont and Byrne's industry-defining runs

Collects Uncanny X-Men (1963) #129-143, Uncanny X-Men Annual (1970) #4, Marvel Treasury Edition (1974) #26-27, Phoenix: The Untold Story (1984), material from Marvel Team-Up (1972) #100. Chris Claremont and John Byrne's collaboration ranks among the greatest comics has ever known. But of their many iconic X-MEN stories, none was more epic or influential than the "Dark Phoenix Saga"! The X-Men have fought many battles, set out on galaxy-spanning adventures and grappled with enemies of limitless might, but nothing could prepare them for their most shocking fight: One of their own teammates, Jean Grey, has gained power beyond all comprehension, corrupting her into the Dark Phoenix! Now the X-Men must fight the woman they cherish, or her unquenchable fire will consume the universe itself! Also featuring Wolverine vs. Wendigo, the dystopian "Days of Future Past" and more!

About the authors

John Byrne

Born in England and raised in Canada, John Byrne discovered superheroes through The Adventures of Superman on television. After studying at the Alberta College of Art and Design, he broke into comics first with Skywald and then at Charlton, where he created the character Rog-2000. Following his tenure at Charlton, Byrne moved to Marvel, where his acclaimed runs on The Uncanny X-Men and The Fantastic Four soon made him one of the most popular artists in the industry. In 1986 he came to DC to revamp Superman from the ground up, and since then he has gone on to draw and/or write every major character at both DC and Marvel.
