So, according to the showrunner and writers, that Peter and MJ scene was to serve as confirmation that Peter found the real MJ after his show ended. I dont know of anyone remembers, but the 90s Spider-Man ended on a cliffhanger. That was their way of saying like, "Hey, Peter found her, we're all good." They also expressed extreme interest in doing this for the 90s Spider-Man show, so hopefully we do get that

I loved despite Xavier destroying Magneto’s mind that he spent the time rebuilding it and declaring he would never abandon him. For me that showed the merits to Xavier’s ways. It is not perfect and there are flaws to it, but by showing empathy is what saved the day. Cyclops who was having doubts about Xavier’s way chose to embrace it when it became obvious the X-Men weren’t going to physically beat Bastion. It was showing to work. Xavier risking himself to save Magneto touched Magneto so much that he turned around and stopped the Asteroid M from crashing into the Earth. This was a great season. Cyclops got a lot of focus and the series showed wider audiences that he can be more than Fox X-Men movies character. It was a joy to see so many people turn around and actually begin to like Cyclops. Jean was given more to do and her powers were allowed to be more effective than the original 90s series. While not everyone got as much focus and screen time as others I think it was the right choice to focus on key characters this season to keep the story flowing. Trying to give everyone equal focus in the first season probably wouldn’t have worked. It is smarter to give characters who were more in the background this season more focus in the next season. The story was well crafted. This was one of Marvel’s best series. It shows that if Marvel slowed down, refined and revise the writing to its properties, and get people who love the product that they can make great movies and shows again.

23:10 Nathan has always known about his psychic powers. The problem is that he's constantly using them to keep the Techno-Organic Virus at from further spread. I assume, in his younger years, the Virus isn't as strong. Thus, he's able to use his powers more freely. Also, with them talking about favorite moments, it has to be "The name's Gambit. Remember it." In a show full to the brim with fantastic moments, none of them touch it IMO. That whole episode ending had me in complete shock.

For the Morph scene, I definitely believe it was them confessing their feelings. In the original series, Morph had "died" and was resurrected as an agent for Mr. Sinister. Logan was the one out of all the Xmen who fought tooth and nail for Morph's sake until Morph was brought back to the team. Knowing that, it makes so much sense to me that Morph would fall in love with Logan afterward. However, Morph also knows that Logan is in love with Jean and may never actually reciprocate Morph's feelings. So, as a result, Morph feels like they have to hide their feelings most of the time out of fear that sharing those feelings would drive Logan away. And them transforming into Jean at that moment is probably just their way of finally saying those feelings out loud, if only once, in a way that would be more palatable to Logan. It definitely helps that Logan is drifting in and out of consciousness at the time and thus might not remember it. It's that common story of an LGBT person loving a straight person and the pain of knowing that the latter won't ever love them back. I think it's so beautiful and so tragic. As much as I'd love to believe that something could happen between Morph and Logan in the future, I'm not holding my breath, unfortunately. 😔 Still, I'm very excited to see all the things to come! Season 2 can't get here soon enough!

RE: Black Panther The one with the grey costume who was speaking to President Kelly was King T'CHAKA. The one in the black costume fighting the Prime Sentinels (and who did not speak a single word) was Prince T'CHALLA. The show likely did it this way to abide by Kevin Feige's decision to not recast the role of T'Challa after Chadwick Boseman's death. The decision to depict T'Chaka as the reigning Wakandan king in "X-Men '97" is actually a change in previous TV continuity. The "Fantastic Four" series from the 1990s established that T'Chaka was already dead and T'Challa was king. Various crossover episodes from this era made it clear that "Fantastic Four," X-Men: TAS," "Spider-Man: TAS," "Iron Man" and "Avengers United They Stand" all share the same continuity.

I really enjoyed this portrayal of Wolverine and Morph's relationship. In the original first season run of X-Men 92', Morph was fully intended to die, and only got revived due to studio meddling. From that, Wolverine was the only one who was genuinely hurt by Morph's loss, and the show spent a lot of time showing how Logan dealt with that grief. Unfortunately, once Morph came back, they sidelined themselves due to their ongoing mental health recovery, so we never got to see how the two characters would have hung out in the classic 90's setting. Morph in the original's first two episodes was seen snickering/cackling to themself in a comedic way, so it can be implied that Morph is a trickster who uses their abilities to play jokes on the other characters; and we see exactly that in his first scene in 97', using the form of the Professor for some really dark humor, considering the circumstances. Transposing that behavior to Wolverine, I think Morph might have helped Logan in the past with his personal traumas. Logan has outlived so many people, and I can imagine that Morph, in an attempt to console their friend, would morph into those from Wolverine's past and tell him the hard truths others don't/can't tell him. Thus, when Morph is presumed dead in the original series, Wolverine would have lost someone who helped center him. We can see both sides to this in 97' when Morph turned into Jean in the club and rubbed the situation in Logan's face, just for him to finally get say what has been on his mind all day. Same with later when Morph offered the chips and beer, reading the situation, and knowing that Logan would respond better to the tough love of a quick fight to get him to let those emotions out. This is most clearly/awkwardly shown in the Goblin Queen episode in the shower scene, where Madelyne, having already read Morph's mind in this situation, exposits some revealing commentary on their personal thoughts. Morph can only ever joke about those things, because if they admit their feelings to themself, it could ruin their friendship with Logan. And once Morph meets up with the rest of the gang, they immediately compare the situation to Hell, even before the Dante's Inferno stuff starts happening, suggesting that Logan finding out is the last thing Morph would ever want to happen. Finally, there's the last line of dialogue for the season, Morph finally admitting their true feelings, but still framing it in a way where they can back if confronted poorly, excusing it as for Logan's benefit more than their own inner desires. Morph is a complex character, and I hope they continue with their plot despite what some might say. I personally loved the subtle story telling this season.

It’s interesting too since it’s the 90s and Morph recently came out as non binary and reverted to their mutant face instead of hiding with their human one. In a sense like a dead name for trans ppl.

At this point, I don't want X-MEN in the MCU-- keep it animated. Thanks for the reactions, fingers crossed for season two to drop soon

Speaking to that feeling we get from movies, that feeling of wonder and adulation, for me that will always be the Christopher Reeves Superman film. I still get chills from that movie, I still get happy when he flies, I still believe a man can fly when that theme music kicks in and that has never lessened for me, even now 46 years later.

Now we need spiderman 97 😂 like they just gonna show Peter & MJ like it’s nothing . Love this show ugh that whole Bastion fight was sick loved seeing Scott fight him & Rogue is so damn cool & powerful she may have been manipulated into taking Captain marvels powers by her mom but it paid off. Id love to see other heroes animated series in this universe

I’ve wondered about the conversations amongst the creative team with regards about that “I love you.” near the end of the episode. And damn, ancient Egypt En Sabah Nur is hot. Then there’s that significant look between Rogue & Magneto when he said his name.

Am I the only one who thought the Goblin Queen episode was pretty damn explicit - in more than one way - about Morph carrying a torch for Logan? What other interpretation do people have of naked-halucination-Logan appearing , Morph cracking a VERY suggestive joke, and hallucination-Logan saying something like: "Always with the jokes. You think we don't know? Everybody knows, Morph." What else would that be about? 😂

Re: Morph. I believe it’s how Morph feels but using the face of Jean as it’s who they think Logan would want to hear it from and comfort him and to mask their feelings. I believe Beau basically confirmed Morph’s feelings on twitter.

I mean. Everyone else got hurled through time and space. What time shenanigans do we know that would absolutely make sense for them. If Immortus or whoever sent them back to the timeline where Logan and Storm where married. In would dive into the relationship stuff between the three and could open stuff up for a possible breakup between Forge and Storm, if they want to make her and T‘Challa a thing later on for an AvX arc. Also we saw a shot of that arc in one of the intros in one of the last episodes.

@notimportant25083 ай бұрын
In terms of the Morph/Wolverine question, the answer is both. Morph is saying it to Logan for real, and they're doing it as Jean for Logan's comfort. There are other hints that morph is into Logan. Like the weird Goblin Queen episode, when the nightmare sequences are just starting morph sees Logan in the showers and Morph jokingly/flirtily offers to help and the hallucination of Logan replies, "you think I don't know, that we all don't know??" That's Goblin Queen mocking them for loving a man who can never love them back.

Aaron, Cyclops fires concussive blasts, not lasers, there is no heat to his blasts unless he’s firing against something that causes friction. He converts cosmic radiation he absorbs naturally into force blasts out of his eyes and he’s awesome. When Cable’s arm is absorbed, his time tech was in that arm so when he teleports behind Rogue, that’s Cable’s body slide tech, so we don’t know if he’s dead, Sabastion could of time jumped somewhere. Polaris:Magneto’s other daughter, Dust:was a new mutant then an Xman, she is an Arabic mutant that turns into sand, Shadow Cat: was Kitty Pride’s first name when she first joined the X-Men, she went and got ninja training and adopted the name Shadow Cat. The Phoenix never leaves whoever it inhabits, it always leaves a portion of itself in that person, that’s what Jean manifested and it’s also why Jean never stays dead, that’s portion of power always resurrect her because she is the Phoenix in part, it’s also how her daughter Rachel from another time line manifests the Phoenix force because the entity Phoenix encountered Rachel in the time stream when she traveled back in time from her timeline and thought she was Jean, it realized she wasn’t Jean and left her but also left a portion of itself in Rachel, so she also is the Phoenix. Rachel ends up getting split into two versions, one goes forward in time, one comes to current time, in this episode we met who Rachel becomes, Askani. She helps raise Nathan until Scott and Jean show up (spoilers Stryfe) In the books they don’t tell Nathan who they are out of fear of changing the time line but here they tell Askani and she had to know as soon as she saw them, they are her parents in her timeline. Look at the dome, if you read comics you know who that belongs to, the X-men aren’t there to fight Apocalypse, they are there to stop the owner of the dome with Apocalypse. Someone has been training Apocalypse to take over for them but Apocalypse isn’t much of a follower, good stuff coming there. So much comics goodness in this, two major storylines introduced in this episode.

Since this is a largely a family thing. Aaron recognized Havok from First Class. But he was also in one or two episodes of the original series. Leader of X-Factor, dated Polaris. And is Scott's brother. Same cosmic energy power, but with blasts from his hands/body. Scott and Alex are immune to each other's power.

Funny enough in some continuity, the watcher has a base on the moon and you can actually go meet/see him. He has a personal arsenal full of weapons and gizmos. and when you ask if you can take/use any of them he just says "all I can do is watch"

Yes, Morph is attracted to Wolverine in the show X-Men '97. The show's creator, Beau DeMayo, confirmed that Morph has a crush on Wolverine throughout the series, and in the finale, Morph confesses his true love for Wolverine. Hints of Morph's attraction to Wolverine are also present in the third episode of the show.

Wolverine losing his metal coating caused him to go feral in the comics. Unhinged, brutal, and dangerous. Wolverine will undoubtedly become the horsemen “War”. Apocalypse saying death while revealing Gambit’s playing card undoubtedly signifies his resurrection as the horsemen “Death”. Season 2 is gonna be crazy. I have to agree, this is definitely the best thing Disney-Marvel has done. This show was amazing. Animation, writing, direction, voice acting, delivery, was all fantastic. Can’t wait for next season. Edit: Shadow Cat is Kitty Pride. Depicted in live action by Ellen(Elliot) Page. Edit 2: My favorite moment was “MAGNETO LIVES!” or Gambit’s gambit (defending Genosha and sacrificing himself).

Its hard not to notice how fast some things move and that it feels less impactful when theres 40 easter eggs and a dozen giant pivotal moments per episode but it's all so good its hard to knock it. It takes time to breathe when it needs it but isnt afraid to go ridiculous and grandious. Only slight issue is the animation style kinds funks up when its slower pace. Like an old flash animated or archer esque show where its stiff but only because its designed to flourish in the extravagant and emotional scenes where faces and action shine so god damned good. Its so god damned good
