Chris Claremont Quotes

'X-Men' or 'Avengers!' I want to be a mutant or an Avenger.

I'm a lifer for the 'X-Men' movies.

'X-Men 1' - I did a cameo.

Of course, everyone would like to play a superhero, but this is by no means me saying I would like to go play Cyclops.

Back in 1982, when there were still only a manageable number of 'X-Men' titles on the racks (by which I mean just one), Marvel quite reasonably figured the world could stand another team of beleaguered mutant superheroes. And so were born 'The New Mutants,' junior X-Men whose powers had just begun to manifest at the onset of puberty.

We love Cyclops and as you know, we love James. It's a great team and we'll continue the team, obviously.

X-Men is massive, like nothing I've ever experienced. But great in its own way.

I'm a fan of X-men.

I never read any of the comics, but I grew up on the animated series when I was a little kid - I guess it came out in 1992. So I've always been an 'X-Men' fan.

The agents of S.M.A.S.H. are the most powerful team in the Marvel universe in terms of muscle power.

All of the 'X-Men' characters really intrigue me. Wolverine is my favorite character.

If you don't know, 'The New Mutants' is like an 'X-Men' spin-off. It was a comic book; Bill Sienkiewicz did it and it was an 'X-Men' comic. It's basically like a separate bunch of mutants.

The mutants I like - Wolverine. The action heroes I like, they have weapons; they are more visceral. So I filled the comic with characters like that, and we got big results.

When it comes to X-Men, Ice Man is my favorite.

Dave Cockrum's work at Marvel and DC defined my childhood and inspired me to be a comic book creator. Without Dave, there is no New 'X-Men' resurgence, there is no Colossus, Storm, Nightcrawler, Lilandra, Star Jammers, or the Imperial Guard. His influence on generations of fans cannot be measured.

As you have two more huge characters as Cable and Domino, 'Deadpool' is growing, and it's making 'X-Force' franchise bigger and bigger.

I would love to play a superhero. I sometimes walk around thinking, 'If I were a superhero, what would my superpower be?'

In the Marvel world, some characters have similar powers. Initially some people might bump up against it, but if they really looked into the X-Men world they would see that characters do share similar powers.

I had never come across the 'X-Men' comics till I was asked to play Magneto, so I just jumped into that job.

Everything I do with my day is related to Superwoman. I'm either doing conference calls or writing a script or reading a script, editing a video, shooting a video.

Today's action hero, his skills are through technology. He can fly, he can throw a bolt of lightning, he can freeze people.

Prior to 'Action' and 'Justice League 1,' there was no label 'superhero' for a superpowered being. It's really the emergence of Superman and the Justice League that gets the public comfortable with the idea of people amongst us who have extraordinary power and that they've agreed to be our champions.

I don't have a superpower.
