“John Byrne (Comic book writer/artist): The famous comic creator (known for his work on X-Men and Fantastic Four) was raised Catholic. When co-plotting X-Men, he notably discussed the religious background of the character Nightcrawler with writer Chris Claremont, debating whether the character should be Jewish or Catholic.”

Lapsed Canadian…..

Roger Stern (the editor) and I pointed out that there were very few German Jews of what was then Kurt’s generation.

So Chris ultimately made him Catholic. And very devout.
