When we last left X-Men ‘97 lots of shit went down. Genosha, and therefore the mutants were admitted into the UN. They are trying to convince us that Rogue and Magneto are a thing (which is super gross by the way) and we are still missing Storm. This now marks the halfway point for the 10 episode season. This is a wildly upsetting set of episodes. The show so far has been incredible I am truly impressed by how many comic book storylines they brought in, they really did their research and it really feels like these characters are right off the page. Incredibly honest reflections of their comic book counterparts.

Charles’ mind gets overtaken by Gambit’s death and what happened to Genosha and he decides that he has to return to earth. Sinister is back and oh boy do we have a lot to look forward to in the next few episodes. With 4 episodes left in this first season I can say that I have absolutely no idea where this is going or how we are getting there. I have a strong feeling that it isn’t going to be wrapped up all nice and neat by the end of the season which is actually a good thing because I know we are all hoping for season 2 of this. Honestly I do not need any live action X-Men if we keep going with the animation. Mutant powers show up better in animation and there is simply more that you can do with it so I really feel no need for the X-Men to hit the big screen anytime soon, if ever.
