Original Series: X-Men '97

Comments

Space Charles: Surprise twist. Charles Xavier didn’t actually die in the original series! The show ended on a cliffhanger, with Charles being whisked away into space by Lilandra, the Empress of the Shi’ar Empire, in hopes of using their advanced technology to heal him. Before Lilandra's arrival Charles did give a final goodbye to his X-Men and Magneto on his deathbed. Though only a small number of people actually watched Season 5, even fewer saw Graduation Day, the final episode of the series. As a result, many believed Charles was truly dead, especially since X-Men '97 was advertising it that way. And if you look up "Charles Death" on youtube it will show his final goodbye. Who the Flark is Lidandra?: Well, during the original series, Lilandra came to Earth seeking the help of Charles and the X-Men to defeat her tyrannical brother, D'Ken. Over time, Charles and Lilandra developed a deep bond, falling in love as they fought together to bring down D'Ken. After their victory, Lilandra offered Charles a place in her empire, but he turned it down, choosing to stay with the X-Men instead. It’s like House of the Dragon, but with cosmic battles, alien empires, and superpowers. (Haven't Seen HOTD) Lilandra also played a crucial role in both the Phoenix Saga (a five-episode arc) and the Dark Phoenix Saga (a four-episode arc), both Earth based and cosmic storylines centered around the immense power of the Phoenix and its potential threat to the universe. The X-Men had to deal with both D'Ken’s tyranny and the emergence of the Phoenix, busy time for the X-Men. This all applies to the comics as well, naturally a few differences like any adaptation. The Kree: Another key element is the appearance of the Kree, who you’ll recognize from the Captain Marvel films and Guardians of the Galaxy. You’ll remember Ronan the Accuser as the main villain in Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), the one who had that infamous dance-off with Star-Lord during the invasion of Xandar. And in Captain Marvel (2019), Ronan was the one who launched missiles at Earth, only for Captain Marvel to swoop in and stop him. In X-Men '97, Ronan’s appearance is pulled straight from the comics, along with the Kree soldiers themselves. The Kree didn't make any appearances in the X-Men animated series (1992–1997), but they did show up in Silver Surfer (1998), sporting the same comic designs you see in X-Men '97. Whiplash: This episode is definitely the most whiplash-inducing, thanks to the sudden jump into space. Especially for fans only familiar with the more grounded X-Men films. But surprisingly, the X-Men have deep ties to Marvel's cosmic side. I'm sure plenty of people will point out fun details, but I’ve already written so much at this point, so I’ll leave that to them :D The MCU has really expanded people's understanding of how vast the Marvel universe is beyond Earth. By introducing concepts like magic and the multiverse, it's made it easier for audiences to accept these shifts. So, if you've primarily followed the MCU, you're likely more comfortable with the transition to cosmic settings. Even with a focus on the X-Men, it emphasizes that these stories exist within the larger Marvel universe, unlike the X-Men films, which were confined to just X-Men due to legal rights. This isolation caused mainstream audiences to not even realize that the X-Men or Fantastic Four were part of Marvel. It just shows how disconnected the films were, giving non-comic readers the impression that the X-Men have no connections to Marvel. Thankfully many will be surprised when they watch X-Men '97 and realise that X-Men are part of a greater Marvel Universe. Storm's Outfit Change: Storm's new look is actually her original outfit from Giant-Size X-Men (1975) #1, which marked her first appearance. In that issue, she also had her signature long white hair. For X-Men '97, however, she's wearing the iconic white suit introduced in X-Men (1991) #1 by Chris Claremont and Jim Lee. For many fans, this look has become Storm's most iconic, thanks to both the X-Men Animated Series and Jim Lee's unforgettable artwork. Storm having a mohawk in X-Men '97 was a fun throwback to her 80s punk look, but paired with her 90s suit. In the original X-Men animated series, she sported long white hair throughout. I suppose at some point between the two shows, she decided to go back to the mohawk style. I loved seeing Storm revert back to her first appearance look. There are some amazing modernized versions of that classic suit, but it's always great when we get to see those early designs again. It really emphasizes that the X-Men have been active for years, and naturally, they’d have a range of outfits reflecting their long history. It adds depth to the characters, showing how they've evolved while honouring their roots.

Notice Gambit is replaced by Nightcrawler also Magneto was not in the beginning.

Rey

Your instincts were right becuae the owl and storm both were the same voice actor And as for the xmen , they all know Charles is still alive, he was dying when they sent help for lilandra and her people , and once she took him everyone was under the belief that Charles would never be able to return due to the care he would need

The tolerance is extinction line is also used by the oppressor... tolerating a group we fear/hate will lead to them overtaking and the extinction of our group. It's the logic of a racist idea called the great replacement theory. In this show it's "if we tolerate mutants than normal people will be obsolete." Which seems reasonable, why hire a forty person demolition crew when you could hire one mutant like Blob to tear down a building? But it is in fact missing the point... who is doing that hiring? Who is actually in charge of how society operates? But people who fear change will certainly fear changing who is in charge, even it would be ultimately for their own benefit.

Also... sorry to get kinda heavy. I know it's on brand for X-Men, but comment sections tend not to be able to hold the nuance required for real discussion.

An excellent movie for next month's Natmare would be Altered States from 1980 book and screenplay written by the very talented Paddy Chayefsky. In its day its genre was sci fi/horror. I hope others agree and help to vote this one in.

LionBro

Have you ever seen Jason and the Argonauts?

Josh R

I would say second weakest episode of the season but the next few episodes are the absolute best (apart from ep 5)

Josh R

also nat you were correct the demon is voiced by the same voice actress as storm. As its a reflection of her fears

Yeah 6 was way better than 4 to me but I agree the second weakest. But 7,8,9,10. Is where the game of each episode trying to top the previous one starts. No more filler episodes everything’s setup it’s on now. Can’t wait for 7 .
