Cool! Even though they're calling it X-Men '97, a lot of these designs and storylines are more like X-Men '88, which is bang up my alley. Can't wait! (though I guess I should finally get around to watching that shitty, shitty Fox cartoon (did I mention that I think it's shitty?)

@ClintThaHamster - X-Cutioner's Song, Inferno and that whole period Magneto was in charge. Love it. Right up my alley too.

I see a baby in that Madelyne Pryor figure. That's gotta be a little baby X-Man or Cable.

We really need Feige to just adapt the XMen and potentially Giant Size X Men. Don't add any nonsense that wasn't already in those comics. Stick closely to the source material and hire a writer who loves the XMen and crack a real story. Don't botch this. It might single handedly save your cinematic universe.

@McMurdo - I think an adaptation of Giant Sized X-Men could work for introducing the lion's share of X-Men characters. You focus on the new team (Cyclops, Wolverine, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Banshee and Thunderbird) sent into Krakoa to rescue the old team (Jean, Angel, Iceman, Havok and Polaris).

Basically like the first Ant-Man movie where they adapted Marvel Premiere #s 47-48 as a way to have both Ant-Men and tell a legacy story. Except once the old X-Men team are rescued you end up with a giant-sized team, but you oonly really have to focus on the new characters for the majority of the movie.

@ObserverIO - great idea man this would be epic.

I'm really excited for this show. Wish we had an official release date.

Not that excited for X-Cutioner, but definitely excited for Goblin Queen, especially since we see that she has little baby Nathan with her.

I wonder if we will get an adaptation of Inferno.

@mountainman - It'll be interesting to see if this new cartoon has the actual balls to adapt stories in the way the old one was famous for doing.

Cartoons just stopped doing that at some point and I don't know why. The last cartoon IA remember to just straight up adapt the comics was the 2003 TMNT cartoon.

@ObserverIO - I thought that Avengers EMH did a good job adapting the source material.

@mountainman - 💯 🎯

I'm still pissed that MARVEL chose to clip it, only to insert SuperHeroSquad 🦬💩!!!

@KennKathleen - They didn't cancel Avengers EMH for Super Hero Squad. They replaced it with a different Avengers cartoon that was no where near as good.

@mountainman - I always liked X-Cutioner. Don't know why, but I thought he was cool as a kid.

Also, notice his belt buckle has FoH on it? I guess they'll be making him an assassing for the Friends of Humanity in this show.

Magneto, Goblin Queen and Nightcrawler are the best ones.

I would love to see Cassandra Nova in this season or next season. The destruction of Genosha could be a great season finale.


It could be a chapter in mutant history that changes everything.

CorndogBurglar - 12/14/2023, 7:37 PM
@Repian - I agree that would be cool, but they would need to build toward it. The last time we saw Genosha in this series it was the old-school mutant hating country.

They would need to re-establish it as mutant utopia before having Nova send that giant cockroach Sentinel to destroy it.

As a child of the 90's, seeing this packaging unlocks a core memory. That and Johnny's Toys when Power Rangers first came out lol

Never like that costume for magneto always like him with helmet on

I love that X-Cutioner is here. I know he was a total product of the 90's, but ways thought he was cool.
CorndogBurglar
CorndogBurglar - 12/14/2023, 7:39 PM
Also, notice the FoH belt buckle on X-Cutioner. Looks like the Friends of Humanity will be sending him after the X-Men as an assassin.

Kind of disappointing Jean doesn't any power effects.

Ya know, I don’t normally buy Hasbro’s Marvel figs at full price (usually just wait for Target to mark them down), but the teenager in me is telling me to buy them on-sight. Oh, and he’s also telling me some other things about alcohol, drugs, and girls, but definitely going to ignore those things as my company doesn’t allow PTO for serving jail time 😉.

Magnetos new look, makes him look like granny goodness or some masculine woman. Not feeling it.
