One of my favorite things about this episode is Xavier's most powerful gift. It isn't his telepathy. It's his gift as a teacher. I think that is so awesome.
@@nicholasgarrick8855 he’s. It originally because magneto was originally a straight up villian hee been rewritten several times and while that’s the relationship that’s developed it’s not the one originally intended at all despite the X-men overall always being an allegory for civil rights
Honestly Storm’s VA did an amazing job with the Adversary! I didn’t even do they were the same voice actor until I looked at the credits but looking back on it it’s just obvious enough for it to make sense story wise while also being a fantastic performance in its own right!
While Vestigial Wings mostly disappeared in modern Shi'ar, some were genetic throwbacks, such as Deathbird.[12] For that throwback, Deathbird was considered a mutant.[13]
I don't think Xavier was "sent" a message by anyone, or "watching" everyone from afar. I think he just felt the massive psychic reverb of a million lives getting burnt out of existence. With that came echoes of what they were doing preceding their deaths.
After watching all original 5 seasons before watching this series, I can say confidently thou although with no blood or deaths, the original series was really mature.
After finding out the Shi'ar are descended from birds, I think thier "goofy hair" is because its not hair but made out of feathers. I think that would also explain why the phoenix symbol has the indents in it as welll.

24:16 a part of this line is straight from the comics, from the E is Extinction storyline. This is actually said during the Wild Sentinel Attack to Genosha.
I think the reason Charles sees Gambit and not Magneto is because he has more of a paternal relationship with Gambit. Sure, Magneto is his friend, but he views Gambit as one of his children, someone he feels need to protect.
15:15 ish. Charles is referring to Shi'ar beliefs, he says: "I thought the Shi'ar considered art a form of insanity." He's not making "a dig" at them. He's referencing what the Shi'ar themselves have said about art in their texts. Gladiator then clarifies that this statue is the one exception to it all basically. Face your demons head on and you'll catch them off guard.
Kinda cool how you guys and Rob from Comics Explained are catching me up on the history of everything. I learned from Rob that Charles saying "They were dancing. Drinking wine. Making love." was a direct quote from the comic.
@joe5923 Their comics only feature the Royal Guard and the spinoff books of each member. Their collectors are like "Oh this month's Gladiator is out. You saw how he hit that mutie Colossus last issue? He went flying." 😂
Charles Xavier's walking armor is a 90s throwback. He wore a Shi'ar exoskeleton that he had previously gotten from Lilandra during Kubert and Nicieza's run of the X-Men comics (Fatal Attractions crossover), but wearing it actually exhausted his mental energy so he didn't use it that much except in outer space.
i feel like the reason Charles saw gambit instead of magneto is probably since magnus isn't dead (maybe) but also his just a friend as gambit is like a son to him so he loves gambit more
This episode was a blast. And what I love about your channel is that you put a focus on the topics of society, racism, equality when they appear in episodes as such and moreover care to elaborate on them 😊
Nightcrawler being added to the intro: Ballin' but at what cost? Also, Forge's mystical abilities (at least based in the comics) are rooted in him being a Native American shaman
The shiar cutting other planets down while offering to save them is a direct parallel to Forge talking about how the colonists set themselves up on native land just to genocide them.
Storm's speech about embracing your inner demons and accepting them reminded me a lot of the video game Celeste, and The Adversary is basically Badeline.
The statue of Sharra and K'ythri that Xavier and Gladiator are standing in front of is from the 1995 miniseries "Starjammers" illustrated by the late great Carlos Pacheco. The animators even presented it in his distinct art style. Making me choke up two episodes in a row? Thanks, Marvel.
i see the Advisary as the Shadow, as described by Carl Gustov Yung that we ALL have. It is our darker side, our doubts, and fears that can limit us, and through facing that Shadow aka Shadow work, we can find strength and grow by facing that Shadow.. I butchered the premise, it is something I have read over the years and really helped me through my own demons and Shadow. Hands down some of the best writing i have sen in years and Emmy worthy, in my opinion
I love watching these after having seen the whole series because I can see how you can be completely on point and completely off point at the same time
16:12 Uhhh I don't think Rudyard Kipling's poem 'The White Man's Burden' critiqued western imperialism but instead was promoting it. Hence why Charles describes Kipling as "one possessed of many burdens. None real". An important difference I think.
And the whole point of Charles saying “How Rudyard Kipling of YOU” in reply to Gladiator’s assertion that oneness and sameness brings about peace. He’s equating the two.
i def planned to watch this episode again love when the experts make connections i didn't think about before this series will def be a part of my rewatch list - it's REALLY giving us the Xmen we deserve
In the news report that Storm and Forge see, they name drop "The Evolutionary War," one of the huge crossover events of the 80s that hit a bunch of the Marvel line annuals... except here it is a very different context.
As much as my fave childhood hero is Wolverine, i'm glad that they are focusing on other mutants backstory or forestory after the original series. Great Job Marvel!
I think the "vision" of Charles was him reaching for Earth with his mind and feeling suddenly all the death at Genosha. He did say something about "giving an example" to the Shiar, as the camera pans to Earth.
There was so much stuff in this episode but it really did feel like the palate cleanser from Remember It. This next episode, is going to be, awesome. At least, that’s what I believe.
In the comics, the Skrulls, Kree, Shiar and Xandarians were in different galaxies. Gunn said that Xandar was in the Andromeda galaxy like in the comics. The Marvels established that the Skrulls and the Kree are in the Magellanic galaxy" which in the comics were the "Magellanic clouds" which is a reference to what Magellan thought they were. The Shiar galaxy is fictional.
I loved the parallels in this episode between Forge's reference to colonists deceiving the Native American people and the ideals of the Shiar being imposed on the conquered civilizations.
The fight isn’t against humans but to win over hearts and minds. Magnetos salvation is ultimate victory for Xavier. It’s not that Xavier over values humans. It’s that killing humans is bad for magneto. He shouldn’t have to.
They could be laying the groundwork down for a Krokoa adaptation. They mention Egg, most of the Quiet Council was on Genosha, cameos of both Darwin in episode with Mojo, and Volcan who both faught against Krokoa. Just me piecing everything together with my wall and red strings connecting things lol
the “dancing, drinking wine, making love” line from charles is a play off the line he gives after the Genosha massacre in the second issue of E is for Extinction by Morrison, although they exchange tea for wine.
i think charles's parelises is linked to his mental powers,since when he was in the savage land he gained his ability to walk once he lost his mutant abilities

My jaw dropped when gladiator appeared ,and he was so OP as faithful to the comics cant wait to see more of him.
Yeah, he was badass. His fighting style is animated so uniquely from other characters with similar skill sets, Rouge specifically.
well he took out juggernaut with one hit in the original series
I loved his exchange with Xavier
I mean he is literally a pastache of superman/Lar Grand/superboy
Storms transformation was amazing. The build up for the future episodes was amazing and looking forward to what comes next!
I love the fact that mutants other than Wolverine are the main focus

Yeah... but how can he without using Cerebro? If he is so powerful, he wouldn't need Cerebro and I guess that is not the case 😌
@@AlessioAlessi It's probably because his consciousness is in the Astral Plane rather than in his body, thereby amplifying his receptiveness.
Bishop was also gone from the opening credits after he returned to the future!

Good catch.

I dont think that Magneto is dead... Thats why Gambit showed up instead of Magento...
Oh shit. That makes sense!
Maybe his son (Quicksilver) saved him like in X-Men Evolution.
Apparently Rogue's voice actress did confirmed that Magneto survived
Charles would've definitely felt Magneto's loss. I think they're setting it up for Magneto's vengeful return.
@@vic8422this! I literally said “uh-oh,” regarding magneto. He was proven right in his mind once again.

So from what I can tell, gladiator is just purple Superman with a mow hawk.
Gladiator is one of a handful of Marvel versions of superman. Him and Hyperion come the closest. Gladiator's actual name is Kallark ie Kal-El + Clark.
@sliferxxxx true, but his actual personality and loyalties are nothing like Superman though.
I'm good with it.
@user-xp3mn9we3m I know that but his powers are based on superman. Ditto Hyperion
like Sentry , Hyperion and Blue Marvel
That piegon diss was one of the best disses marvel has given us 😂😭 killed me
The goddess has returned to form!
I think the reason Charles sees Gambit and not Magneto is because he has more of a paternal relationship with Gambit. Sure, Magneto is his friend, but he views Gambit as one of his children, someone he feels need to protect.
Or because Magneto didn’t actually die
That or it's foreshadowing Gambit becoming Death for Apocalypse
@teerex1376 I think this is definitely a possibility. IMO, Gambit's too popular of a character to fully kill off.
It's Professor X. And here he is doing what his nickname is supposed to mean: teaching and schooling. Love it.
Gambit is coming back as death from the four Horseman
does he come back to life after that? or does he die once again?

With them introducing Vulcan I need to see Emperor Vulcan and Kingbreaker. We as well should see Scott, Alex, and Corsair interact with him.
Been waiting patiently

@@FantasticExplorers I just meant in the context of this episode's script
I am not sure if anyone else noticed, but at the very beginning there is an outline of the Watcher that is focused on before the battle starts.
I believe Apocalypse is the mastermind of this attack. Bastion, Mr Sinister and Mystique are his henchmen
i've been waiting for this video all day!! 💖 i LOVED the episode
I went back multiple times to hear Deathbird call our galaxy…..Le Ghetto 😂😂😂😂
I think Roberto will get his own title card when he is named "Sunspot"
Rewatched episode 2 and noticed the Adversary through the skylight whenever Storm was reaching towards the sky
When Charles walks in for his first appearance, I literally thought it was Voldemort. 10:12

He would've had to put on his best Deadpool act but he's far too classy for that.
Not too classy to bark though

The origin of the name “Satan” is from the Biblical Hebrew word “Hasatan” which literally translates as “The Adversary”
