The Wolverine Fails To Credit Chris Claremont And Frank Miller

"The Wolverine" creators fails to credit the most important pair Chris Claremont and Frank Miller whose 1982 title formed the basis for the 20th Century Fox film's script - are not mentioned in the credits.

"Chris Claremont and I went to Times Square and watched The Wolverine, which was based on the miniseries he did with Frank Miller," wrote Marvel Comics: The Untold Story writer Sean Howe on his Facebook page.

"Unfortunately, he didn't get a credit, not even a 'special thanks' in the film. Nor, as far as I could tell, did any comics writer or artist, including Len Wein and John Romita, who created the character."

Mark Waid, who recently spoke about the policy of crediting creators for their movie contributions. He didn't receive any acknowledgment in "Man of Steel," which was inspired from his limited series Superman: Birthright.

Claremont was mainly positive about The Wolverine in a recent interview with Vulture. The creators were not credited in The Wolverine promotional material but the cast and crew frequently mentioned them in the run-up to the movie.
