  <about><![CDATA[Chris Claremont is a writer of American comic books, best known for his 16-year (1975-1991) stint on &lt;i&gt;Uncanny X-Men&lt;/i&gt;, during which the series became one of the comic book industry's most successful properties.

Claremont has written many stories for other publishers including the &lt;i&gt;Star Trek Debt of Honor&lt;/i&gt; graphic novel, his creator-owned &lt;i&gt;Sovereign Seven&lt;/i&gt; for DC Comics and &lt;i&gt;Aliens vs Predator&lt;/i&gt; for Dark Horse Comics. He also wrote a few issues of the series &lt;i&gt;WildC.A.T.s&lt;/i&gt; (volume 1, issues #10-13) at Image Comics, which introduced his creator-owned character, Huntsman.

Outside of comics, Claremont co-wrote the &lt;i&gt;Chronicles of the Shadow War&lt;/i&gt; trilogy, &lt;i&gt;Shadow Moon&lt;/i&gt; (1995), &lt;i&gt;Shadow Dawn&lt;/i&gt; (1996), and &lt;i&gt;Shadow Star&lt;/i&gt; (1999), with George Lucas. This trilogy continues the story of Elora Danan from the movie &lt;i&gt;Willow&lt;/i&gt;. In the 1980s, he also wrote a science fiction trilogy about female starship pilot Nicole Shea, consisting of &lt;i&gt;First Flight&lt;/i&gt; (1987), &lt;i&gt;Grounded!&lt;/i&gt; (1991), and &lt;i&gt;Sundowner&lt;/i&gt; (1994). Claremont was also a contributor to the &lt;i&gt;Wild Cards&lt;/i&gt; anthology series.
