I consider this the real golden era of comics. Bringing comic books to other mediums and exposing a whole generation to these heroes and stories was massive for comic properties.
Same here, then after X-men I believe it was spider-man and his amazing friends. But for sure kids today don’t really care about that all they want is phones or tablets. Our era was different and definitely better than now days. Take care fellow mutants
apocalypse isn't trapped in the astral plane anymore. in the fifth season episode, the fifth horseman, he took over fabian cortez's body and banished him to the astral plane in his place.
I knew I couldn't be the only one going back to watch all the original episodes in order, to re-familiarize myself with everything & the order it happened in. I started a few days ago watching as many episodes as I can each night before bed & I'm just getting done with season 2 PS: I'm so stoked for X-Men '97!!
@@kingzrjaygaming8536 reactions for the first three episodes are starting to show up and everyone who has seen them agrees that X-Men 97 is amazing and even better than the original show. So, yeah... all the Morph haters are going to have to swallow their hate pretty soon. 🤷
I always remember X-men because I always felt the type of connection between Wolverine and Jubilee with my youngest sister it’s stupid I know. Also that intro music 🔥
Tomorrow would be the premier. After watching the original series 2 years ago, along with Evolution & Wolverine & the X-Men. I’m really can’t tell how excited I am.
As a late 90s kid who grew up watching recorded VHS tapes of all the X-Men and Spider-Man cartoons from my older brothers collection, thank you for this quick refresher! I hope they do bring back the 90s Spider-Man cartoon and maybe have another crossover like they did with the episode of The Beyonder.
I can't wait to see this. I loved the first series and recorded every episode on VHS. It started coming on while I was stationed in Germany, I never missed watching it.
After watching episode 3 of X-men ‘97, I don’t think they could’ve handled the Madelyn Pryor situation any better. It was very easy to follow and didn’t screw up any characters relationships in me eyes
In Season 5, Apocalypse returned by taking Fabian Cortez's body (Season 5, Episode 9 or 10). This transpired in the 90's cartoon, I'm not sure how Apocalypse returns in the comics, but it's probably the same way.
Here's my X-Men checklist as preparation for X-Men 97: X-Men shirt: ✔️ X-Men comics: ✔️ X-Men Marvel Legends figures: ✔️ Only thing not checked: X-Men Epic Collections and Collected Edition Volumes Also, I'm excited to see what's going to happen in X-Men 97 especially since Madelyne Pryor is going to be one of the villains in the show alongside Mr. Sinister. I hope they'll adapt the story arcs from the X-Men comics such as Inferno, Mutant Massacre, Fall of the Mutants, Fatal Attractions, and Project Zero Tolerance. And Remember: Apocalypse did escape the astra plane by possessing the body of Fabian Cortez.
Thank you for this..was hard to follow the series because we only have 1 tv before..and the people at my house wants to watch basketball than this..and this was showed in a 7pm time slot not in the morning
The goblin queen a.k.a. Madeline Pryor is confirmed to be an XMen 97 because of toys that have come out with characters like nightcrawler and the executioner and Madeline Pryor, a.k.a. goblin cream so they will make cable the son of Madeline prior
I dont mind the cable thing...the x-men change their timeline so many times that jean being his mom is the gist of it...i am sure, she still see him as his kid regardless❤
Thank you for this amazing recap. while I'm going to be quite new to this and i do not have time for the whole show of the old one it's great to know a bit before. I'm going to watch 97 right now!!! can't wait to be apart of this community.
Can’t wait for the series. Itching to see another throw-down between Wolverine and Sabertooth. I wonder how the opening credit’s gonna end now that Magneto’s on the other side. Cue the music… ta-na-na-na-naa-na-na, ta-na-na-na-naa-na-na…
I haven’t grown up with anything X-men beyond the Brian Singer films, but I’m hoping they let Storm be a badass in show like before as I heard she’s been pretty much nerfed outside of the comics now a days
What they did to Storm in the movies is a damn tragedy. Storm was one of the best characters in Marvel Comics period. What they did in the movies was NOT Storm.
I was a teenager and a huge X-Men fan when this cartoon came out. My friends and I absolutely hated Morph since he was created for the cartoon, and he felt shoehorned into the story. We felt that since they were doing comic stories where Morph never existed, they didn't need to create any new characters. I know a lot of fans like him. I'm curious to know; How old is the average Morph fan? And how many Morph fans read the comics BEFORE the TV show?
just me guessing but it looks like they rally around Scott. "to me my X-men" felt like something Xavier would say. I wouldn't be surprised if he was actually projecting through Scott
Well is this is a preview you had no idea how perfect the show would be and I assume you watched it and saw how perfectly they did the gene Madeline cable situation
Okay, so should this work out be excited because Charles might come back walking and we might get the animated version of the most recent Hickman run which is the best XMen comics ever made.
Great recap, THANK YOU!! But everyone assumes Jean is pregnant with Cable. It could instead be Rachel. Or an alternate Nathan like X-Man. They could even go the Mutant Messiah route and make it Hope. Or they could throw us a curveball and make it a completely new character.
I cannot wait I also can't wait to see if they'll do a Ghost Rider Blade and reboot of Spiderman and one without a kid Peter Parker I would also like to see a remake of Hulk and Fantastic 4 but not so much in series but go more towards a Marvel's Animated Cinematic Universe because DC is killing Marvel in the cartoon movies
I'm looking forward to this so much. But I don't see why Bishop is a core member. It doesn't feel organic at all. Dude isn't from this timeline. A 2-4 episodes with him, sure.. why not. But a core member? huh? He just gave up his timeline? uh.. ok. I also couldn't care less about Morph. He was there to die and served his purpose. No need to bring him back, but whatever. My excitement level is a 10/10, but my concern is also a 10/10. They need to do this right. In fact Marvel needs to do all things X-Men, right. This cartoon as well as live action MCU stuff. I really hope they mess this up like the MCU has done with almost everything post Endgame.
Damn I almost cried when he said it's been almost 3 decades since the animated series. Lolol we're getting old 90s babies 😭
How do you think we feel being born in the 80’s ? 😂🤣
The X-Men animated series is what got me into comics. Saturday morning, turning the TV on to Fox. I had an awesome childhood.
Same!
It was a magical time 😌
I was busy getting laid.

I wish Colossus was a part of this show. He had an episode in the original
If the first episode doesn't start with, "Previously on X-Men" its all downward from there!!
Lmao,i know
Agreed! I think they’re smarter than that.
Rather… I HOPE they are
That depends if that recap video is going to get a 21st Century Animation update since that's going to show scenes from episodes from that 90s Show
Forsho 😂
Is nightcrawler in it?
apocalypse isn't trapped in the astral plane anymore. in the fifth season episode, the fifth horseman, he took over fabian cortez's body and banished him to the astral plane in his place.
Variant Comics wirh the clutch video at the perfect time. Thanks a bunch fellas!

PS: I'm so stoked for X-Men '97!!
I just wish they had chosen to emulate the earlier style, and not the last season a bit more. But looks awesome anyway.
PLEASE DISNEY! Don’t screw this up!
Do not fear Disney will mess it up with it's DEI agenda.
They already are messing it up making Morph nonbionary and making that part of the issues for the show and that had nothing to do with the show

They are on it. Already fired the showrunner/series creator
Trrrust me as someone who went to the premiere they didn’t this show is straight heat you’ll see
Lol the "they should just make jean Cables mother" line really aged well
Or didn't? 😮😊
4:58 you can’t tell me this is not a shot from *Captain Planet.* 😂
I always remember X-men because I always felt the type of connection between Wolverine and Jubilee with my youngest sister it’s stupid I know. Also that intro music 🔥
Tomorrow would be the premier. After watching the original series 2 years ago, along with Evolution & Wolverine & the X-Men. I’m really can’t tell how excited I am.
I just need to see Jean randomly fainting again.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 precisely
I always loved the frienship between Charles and Magneto
Watching this after Watching all 3 episodes of X-men 97' so far. So dope that Nathan is cable
Thank god for this, bc no way was I going back to watch 76 episodes to get caught up.
As a late 90s kid who grew up watching recorded VHS tapes of all the X-Men and Spider-Man cartoons from my older brothers collection, thank you for this quick refresher! I hope they do bring back the 90s Spider-Man cartoon and maybe have another crossover like they did with the episode of The Beyonder.

All the info I needed to start ‘97. Thank you! Very stoked for this new show.

In Season 5, Apocalypse returned by taking Fabian Cortez's body (Season 5, Episode 9 or 10). This transpired in the 90's cartoon, I'm not sure how Apocalypse returns in the comics, but it's probably the same way.
Here's my X-Men checklist as preparation for X-Men 97:
X-Men shirt: ✔️
X-Men comics: ✔️
X-Men Marvel Legends figures: ✔️
Only thing not checked:
X-Men Epic Collections and Collected Edition Volumes
Also, I'm excited to see what's going to happen in X-Men 97 especially since Madelyne Pryor is going to be one of the villains in the show alongside Mr. Sinister. I hope they'll adapt the story arcs from the X-Men comics such as Inferno, Mutant Massacre, Fall of the Mutants, Fatal Attractions, and Project Zero Tolerance.
And Remember: Apocalypse did escape the astra plane by possessing the body of Fabian Cortez.
I still have every season of X-men on dvd , I’m excited but I’m worried Disney is going to mess it up
i love yall for this!!!!!
X-Men 97 with Spiderman 94 cameo 🙏
Can you do history of Alfred Pennyworth, Batwing, Flame Bird, Batwoman, Azrael, Signal(Duke Thomas), Bluebird, Stephanie Brown and Carrie Kelly?
Age of apocalypse would be such a great storyline to explore since the absence of charles and magneto in charge of the xmen….
So excited🤯!
Thank you for this..was hard to follow the series because we only have 1 tv before..and the people at my house wants to watch basketball than this..and this was showed in a 7pm time slot not in the morning
The goblin queen a.k.a. Madeline Pryor is confirmed to be an XMen 97 because of toys that have come out with characters like nightcrawler and the executioner and Madeline Pryor, a.k.a. goblin cream so they will make cable the son of Madeline prior
“Goblin cream”
😂😂
Sorry I meant goblin queen
Welp Scott will have a kid with the real Jean one day
Maybe
Damn it, he doesn't die. He leaves to go to the Shi'ar homeworld where Lilandra says that she can cure him.
Watch the whole video.
more nightcrawler PLEASE
Can't wait 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I dont mind the cable thing...the x-men change their timeline so many times that jean being his mom is the gist of it...i am sure, she still see him as his kid regardless❤
*sees
Didn't they already touch on Cable having the techno(mutant plague)virus in the original? Even if she has Cable he has to be sent to the future.
Jean = Madelyn Pryor. We haven't seen the original Jean since the Pheonix Saga.

Them bringing spiderman searching for MJ would be great but I'm conflicted since they also added Stan lee
It’s funny watching this after watching those first two episodes …especially the baby mama stuff lol
Apocalypse escaped the Astral Plane in Season 5.
I was a teenager and a huge X-Men fan when this cartoon came out. My friends and I absolutely hated Morph since he was created for the cartoon, and he felt shoehorned into the story.

"it would fix a lot of continuity issue and be way less confusing" LMAO. watching this just after having finished episode 3 :P
They did this show good. 97 is amazing
I hope Blade makes a cameo. or T'challa is mentioned
Umm... Why exactly?
In a sense Jean Grey is Cables mom
Another cartoon series for old kids in their 30s. I can't wait to see another sequel to this when we are all grandpas and grandmas in our deathbed.
Legit needed this cuz it’s been YEARS….I don’t remember shit 😂
8:32 no spoilers for X-Men 97🤫🤯
I'm still mixed on one of the new writers who decided to make Morph Bi. In the original show, there is nothing that proves he is.
Never got into this show but I’ll give it a chance. I hope they bring back Avengers EMH too.
WHEN!!!!!!!!!!!!🤯🤯🤯
I hope this goes well and they revive the spiderman show as well bc they eneded on a cliff hanger, i wanna see it come to a conclusive end 👀
We love you
Madaline Pryor is in the new ' 97 action figure line. So i assumed that the pregnant one is madaline Pryor.
I haven’t been this excited since Cap America Civil War
just me guessing but it looks like they rally around Scott. "to me my X-men" felt like something Xavier would say. I wouldn't be surprised if he was actually projecting through Scott
8:21 Just make the baby Rachel Summers? She’s an awesome character!
Well is this is a preview you had no idea how perfect the show would be and I assume you watched it and saw how perfectly they did the gene Madeline cable situation
Okay, so should this work out be excited because Charles might come back walking and we might get the animated version of the most recent Hickman run which is the best XMen comics ever made.
They did said they're doing more late 80s early 90s stories in here, no modern stuff.
I’m rewatching now. I forgot what went down.
Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?
Great recap, THANK YOU!! But everyone assumes Jean is pregnant with Cable. It could instead be Rachel. Or an alternate Nathan like X-Man. They could even go the Mutant Messiah route and make it Hope. Or they could throw us a curveball and make it a completely new character.
The Goblin Queen action figure part of X-Men '97 merch includes a baby boy as an accessory...
You should do a season by season recap
Magneto looks like David Coverdale from Whitesnake.
C'mon, gotta bring Back the one and only....The Apocalypse....
I remember the episode graduation day. He didn’t die. Lilandra took him to her home world to heal him. At least that is what the assumption was.
Age of Apocalypse should be a nice few episodes, now that Xavier is "dead" and Magneto leading the team.
The mutant world was my view of how the whole marvel universe felt growing up,
I based all my characters living in that world
“Nearly 3 decades” oof fkn hell man i’m old
I've been waiting to know what happens to MJ at the end of the spiderman series and im ready to find out after more than 2 decades!
In the Age of Apocalypse comics, Magneto lead the X-men against Apocalypse. This could be that.
The ONLY thing I need to know: does it open with "Previously...on X-Men..."?
Hmmm…I wonder if we’ll get to see a certain merc with a mouth? Inquiring minds want to know 😂😂😂
They should keep the iconic opening theme.
Last time i saw the first show was when i was a little kid its been way to long since i saw it lol
Is the sharper footage AI upscaled? It shows.
I hope they continue the 90s spiderman series... MJ is still missing... that always pissed me off that they never finished that arc off
Leave it to Variant comics to hook us up with a Good recap
Also a goblin queen/madelyne pryer toy leaked so it’s probably gonna be akin to the comic story with Jean not being cables mom
Thank youuuuu
Sinister!
I want another series of the old silver surfer show
I’m hoping they’ll find a way to introduce onslaught
So who is the final boss of this series apocalypse or sinister?
Whatttt Jean is the mother of Cable 😮
Drinking game: take a shot every time the narrator repeats a premise. 3 minute video, tops
They should get Micheal Jai White to play Bishop in the live movie’s 👌
Jubilee leading the kids from Captain Planet.
Coming back after episode 2: So about cables mom....
They just went with the comic book origin 😂
I am sure they will get along
If we don't get at least one Juggernaut appearance with him exclaiming "who he is, b$#@h!" it's not worth it.
It wouldn't make sense for jean and Cyclops to be the parents, because he is from the year 3999. It would make sense if they were his ancestor.
Hello, may you please talk about COFFIN COMICS/ Lady Death
Apocalypse escaped the astral plane in S5 so he's out there somewhere.
I cannot wait I also can't wait to see if they'll do a Ghost Rider Blade and reboot of Spiderman and one without a kid Peter Parker I would also like to see a remake of Hulk and Fantastic 4 but not so much in series but go more towards a Marvel's Animated Cinematic Universe because DC is killing Marvel in the cartoon movies
I forgot how much the animation took a dive in the later seasons
The Truth that if they had Taken Martin before Taking Malcolm this is the exact scenario America would have been facing
I'm looking forward to this so much. But I don't see why Bishop is a core member. It doesn't feel organic at all. Dude isn't from this timeline. A 2-4 episodes with him, sure.. why not.
