Great first episode, it had me 5 minutes in with the justice for Cyclops moment. Hearing them call Storm an Omega level mutant was icing on the cake.

It’s not that Cyclops isn’t a mess, it’s that most adaptations the past quarter-century *focus* on that; he’s composed on the surface but if he’s not like that 90% of the time then the angst doesn’t hit like it should and he comes off as pathetic… He’s such a phenomenal and somehow underrated character who deserves to be done justice. Which is one reason I hope the MCU doesn’t do the Phoenix Saga, at least not until they’ve done a trilogy or so…

@borjankosarac36456 ай бұрын
I will say a couple of things, guys. First, I’m glad that Morph actually gets to be a complete character now; he/they were created for the show (albeit based loosely off a 60s mutant called Chameleon, who died before the decade was up) and meant to die in the opener just to set the tone. But because the creators and fans liked him, they retconned his death by hastily putting his voiceover in the Season 1 finale (the bit where Sinister is monitoring Scott and Jean) and made him a recurring victim; now that they’re a full part of the story though, Morph can actually have a dynamic role. Which includes showing them and Logan in downtime (Morph was the “only one who made him laugh” but we couldn’t really see it). Secondly, I had forgotten that Roberto de Costa is from a wealthy family, and actually leaning into that makes him a great contrast to former newcomer Jubilee. That said, it still irks me that even this adaptation opts to change his ethnicity- he was originally designed to be Afro-Brazilian, and the insistence to make him lighter-skinned that the comics and elsewhere indulge feels wasteful (especially when you don’t need to cast a perfect ethnically accurate actor for voiceover; he could be any Latino plus black and it would work).
@LegendsofPodcasting6 ай бұрын
Yeah I listened to that interview about morph was interesting. Really cool way to cameo other characters as well. Already had him do 5 characters. Yeah I hope he comes back in the season and joins the team.

I didn't watch the original series, but am tuning in for this. So far, I think its fine. I'm not a huge fan of the CG animation and some of the 90s cheesiness. But overall, its fun. Marvel Studios already made an X-Men animated series when they produced Wolverine and the X-Men. I really liked the tone of that show.

Season 5 was definitely the weakest, although I don’t blame them for that; they didn’t expect to be renewed and had put the characters in a shaken status quo. So it felt… not bad, but off. However at least the finale was excellent and really sent it off perfectly.

You may not know this, but despite being released after the comic “Age of Apocalypse”, the two-part animated story “One Man’s Worth” was actually conceived of *first* and the comics writers decided to copy them. Because the comics don’t have that production time it came out first, but it’s actually the comics imitating something they knew was good. And why wouldn’t they, especially as they did their own stuff with it.
