Stan did love to retcon his own history, most of what we love about X-Men comes from Claremont anyway.

VERY well said, and another addition to the “creators don’t always make the definitive versions of characters:” Liefeld created Deadpool, but other writers MADE him deadpool

Stan 100% played his part. Buuuuut X Men was not his child.

I would agree that Stan Lee did not intend to make the X-Men but Chris Claremont certainly did so I guess that makes it since 1979 or 80 that’s long enough

thanks for sharing this. it caused gears in my head to turn about the thing that Stan Lee hated the idea of having the Marvel universe rewritten, which happens so often in X-men, Spider-Man, Avengers

Stan Lee might have created the X-Men, but Chris Claremont made them what they are.

100% true, and it falls into the philosophy of "once you put it out there, it's not yours. it belongs to the audience." and that's something I love about x-men

I learned my lesson with Bob Kane, certain "creators" liked writing their own personal lore. Stan was just more charismatic.

yeah something I think people don't understand is that Stanley set the bedrock that others built upon that doesn't dismiss the importance of the bedrock but you don't need to overstate it ether

Stan did not make the X-Men woke. And his version basically failed. Sales, as far as I've been able to find put, didn't kick up until after the team changed.
