- Before the X-Men became a wildly popular film franchise, they found early success in the 90s as an animated TV series. This ragtag cast of mutants would rock the airwaves for 5 season, countless storylines, and the occasional crossover, and paved the way for other successful cartoon adaptations for years to come. Think you know everything about Professor X, Wolverine, Jean Grey, and the rest of Xavier's students? Well think again! We're counting down the 107 facts YOU should know about X-Men: The Animated Series.

Channel Frederator is cartoon central on the Internet.
Remember: Frederator loves you.
Thanks to Margaret Loesche and the entire cast and crew of one of the greatest shows that was ever on television. Cathal Dodd will always be the voice of Wolverine to me.
amen
Agreed.
Let’s go bub
Rogue was always my favorite. Her strength and vulnerability juxtaposed, a truly deep character. And I loved her little sassy personality.
And then she was boring in the movies 😕
@@Sirinaheart
Not gonna lie.
Until the hair color change in the end of the movie.
I never realised, that she was Rogue.
LightningLover that’s funny, going into those movies I had no idea who anyone was I later learned that was her after watching the movies a bunch 🙄 they did a bad job lol
Easily my favorite cartoon as a kid growing up. I had no idea how hard Margaret Loesch had to fight so hard to get it... And the fact that she did makes her awesome as hell to me!
"Inspired by Stan Lee's artwork"... Uh... No. Stan Lee was Never an artist. He was a writer and creator.
The original X-Men were designed by Jack Kirby. The Animated Series owed its design style more to John Byrne, And maybe a bit to Jim Lee.
Yes, exactly. This video said that "Stan Lee's artwork" inspired the cartoon.
Yeah they meant Jim Lee
Um, either way artist are creators so Stan Lee is an artist.
Hail to the KING.... KING KIRBY that is.
Hugh Jackman is not Australian doing a fake American accent. He's an Australian doing a fake canadian accent.
!!! Thank you !!! we aren't often on patriotism patrol, but when we are, it's comic book based, lol :)
Lumpy Hippo Canada is America
Patrick Lee Canada is near America but is a totally different country
america the continent not country
Yes , thank you , I'm a canuck and I have Logan pride here ! 😆🖤
"Nightcrawler happened to be my all-time favourite episode of that series... because it had Nightcrawler in it. The show was great, but they should have had more Nightcrawler.
'Nuff said!
Total die-hard fan. X-Men was the title that solidified my love for comics as a whole and was the first title I collected monthly. Loved the old cartoon. Hell. Even bought the VHS tapes of the first four episodes sold via Pizza Hut. Who remembers THAT?
My mom had bought me those first 4 episodes at Sam Goody's back when they originally came out in 92
I still have them. They can't play but still,amazing. Also the interview with Stan Lee and,company is amazing .
reaverofsouls I did the same thing I got all of them and watch them while eating the Pizza Hut which my mother hated she despised Pizza Hut but I begged her just so I can get those X-Men VHS tapes ahh the memories of childhood such a simpler time no having to pay rent when you're only worried was finishing playing your Super Nintendo game or your Genesis game in time to get to school without being late and getting detention I must have played that X-Men Genesis game from Friday after school straight till Monday before school and don't even ask me about Final Fantasy 3 for the Super Nintendo I got a lot detention cuz of that game
reaverofsouls do you remember how the original Phoenix Saga episodes aired during the week at like 3 I had to set my VCR to record cuz I would ride my bike home from school at that time and it took me about 45 minutes and I didn't want to miss a single second of it those were the only X-Men episodes I taped with commercials the rest I taped on VHS and would pause during the commercials I still have all those tapes of every single episode
Still own my pizza hut copies baby! I always wondered why there were animation discrepancies between the pizza hut vids and the original cartoon, this vid seems to have answered that, (PH version is probably the non-fixed version)
I would like to thank Margaret Loesch for her amazing fight to make the X-Men the Animated Series so amazing.
I didn't know about this until this list. Thank you, Margaret Loesch. So much.
Kelsey Grammar playing Beast in the movies was brilliant.
Batman-the animated series rightfully gets a lot of praise. But I think the people overlook this X-men series. I enjoyed it just a much and I think it's criminally underrated by many people.
Jean Grey. She will always be my favorite. With Storm as a close second. I must have watched the Dark Phoenix arc in the show a million times.
Gambit and Rogue best comic couple!
They just got married this month in the comics.
They replaced it with iceman lol.
Iona Morris, was the first actress two play Storm. She was Storms voice through season 1 and most of season two. She also did Storm on Spiderman. She was my favorite voice for Storm.
Both the actresses did incredible jobs. However, I think Sealy-Smith wasn't given as much to work with, as shortly after she was brought on board, Storm sort of faded into the background.
#NickCulton I agree!!! She’s more believable as the voice for Storm, especially when she yells at Wolverine and Gambit. Or in Spider Man: “Boys, boys! Can’t we settle this quietly?”
Man I remember being A teen comic nerd watching this show on UHF and being thrilled that even with all the static and snow that the X-Men were on TV.
Gambit was always my favorite, but I also liked the feud between Cyclops and Wolverine.
It makes sense. Stan Lee always believed in letting his teams have creative freedom, only stepping in either to help world grow, or then step in if something was going horribly wrong.
Gambit and Beast will always be my favorite mutants
Send Bishop back to the past to stop Bryan Singer.
Couldn't have planned it better myself.
But Rush Hour?
Evidence
HAHA! Too funny yet too true!
Why? He made great X-Men movies and helped get the superhero wave rolling. If you didn't like X-Men: The Last Stand, he didn't direct it. The only X-Men movie that he made that's considered bad is Apocalypse, other than that, he has a great track record.
I loved it!!! Thanks for this! I'm a really big X-Men fan and this 90's series actually takes me back to my childhood all the time! So, to me, there is no cartoon like this one, not even Wolverine and the X-Men.
Stan Lee's artwork? Stan Lee never drew a single issue of Xmen. You might have meant 90s artist Jim Lee
I paused the video as soon as I heard that to see if anyone else caught that error.
+Leslie “Hap” Hapablap yeah me too... Should be Jim Lee's artwork (pertaining to the 90s X-Men look)
I thought about that too, they didnt give a single shoutout to Jim Lee
i was so upset when i heard that i paused and said to my girlfriend "i'm so mad right now"
It's just that Stan Lee is much more recognizable then Jim Lee. It's sad. But true.
For me nothing beats
" The Uncanny X-men"
and the thrill it brought me during my childhood. Not even the movies...not even 2019 Avengers.
You mean the Chris Claremont run,right?
XMEN was one of my all time favorite cartoons. I went from he-man, to tmnt, to xmen.. I used to rent Pryde of the Xmen over and over agin wondering why there was no further episodes.. It even had an arcade game based off it. I too hated wolverines voice in it but that was an easy fix to what couldve been a great show.. I used to cut holes in my gloves and put knives in there to swipe at stuff like wolverine lol.
Also find it kind of interesting that Catherine Disher who played Jean and Alyson Court who played Jubilee respectively played roles in back to back Resident Evil video games. Catherine as Jill Valentine in Resident Evil 3 (as noted) and Alyson playing Claire Redfield in Resident Evil 2 and all other Resident Evil related games and movies involving Claire all the way up until Revelations 2, which for whatever ridiculous reason, they didn't include Alyson Court to reprise her role as Claire. I asked Alyson on her twitter and they said they didn't even contact her about it. What a dick move.
107 X-Men:Evolution facts if you please. :)
Mini That would be cool
Mini nobody saw that series
yes yes YES!!!
Jack O Brien I did
@@conormctapoutaka0-1aka0tit5 That was my childhood. Just cuz you didn't see it doesn't mean that nobody did.
wish they extended it beyond season 5 :( really loved this cartoon
Boy, I've got some news
Loved the intro to this show
That theme song will be forever stuck in my head
Da na na na naaaa na na da na na na naaa ne ne
I always loved Jubilee.. I wish they had of used her storyline in the 2000 movie instead of Rogue.. and have Rogue as an established X men who comes back to help with the battle with magneto... and introduce Gambit somewhere in the movies as her love interest
To each their own. But my favorite from the Animated Series would be Storm. Love manipulation of weather and it's 10x better than the movies. Storm in the movies was more of a weakling. But if I had to choose one above Storm it'd be Rogue. From the accent and Miss Marvel's power, she was just great.
Correction on Fact 21... Stan Lee's artwork is credited as influencing the show but Stan's no artist, he's an idea man and writer. Jack Kirby created the art for the first X-Men comic.
Thank you!!
+MalnourishedGoat My thoughts exactly! Stan was more of a writer than an artist (though even his writing credits are a source of some dispute)
I was introduced to X-men because of Pizza Hut. Order Pizza, get a X-men TAS VHS
This show really pounded the idea of multi-part episodes into the dirt... Twelve 2-part episodes, two 4-part episodes, and one 5-part episode, making for 37 out of the show's 78 episodes, a staggering 47% of the total run!
The words were so often repeated in the series due to it having so many multi-episode-spanning storylines, that even years later, many fans say they can merely just READ the words "Previously, on X-Men..." and hear them spoken in Cyclops' voice.
...you just heard it too, didn't you?
When the animation team AKOM turned in the first episode, it contained hundreds of animation errors, which AKOM refused to fix. Because of time constraints, the episode was aired in an unfinished form. The second episode was turned in just before deadline, with 50 scenes missing and only a single day reserved for editing. Really good job Akom. exactly what i expected when i heard in this video that they outsourced the animation to a different country 8000 kms away and in the nineties no less, where i would imagine the finished tapes or digital medial would have to be physically transported across the nation.
107 facts about Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes! God I miss that show.
same ☹️
Additional factors I would like to add is that the X-Men animated series did add other non X-Men characters such as Dr. Strange during the Phoenix saga, Miss Marvel to explain how Rouge got her flight and strength, and Captain America during an episode when both he and wolverine teamed up during WW2.
for #22 you said "the art was heavily influenced by Stan Lee's artwork for Xmen Issue #1" and then showed the old team from the 60s, which was probably drawn by Jack Kirby and looks nothing like the show... but the art was inspired by artist Jim Lee's designs in the new 'Xmen' series from the 90s....
Long live Margaret Loesch!
The japanese opening and ending are really cool it makes me wish that the actual X-men anime had been produced in a similar style.
Yeah I wish that would have happened but I only would add a bit more of rogue in the intro
54 gave us probably the most Shakespearian line ever spoke on the home screen.
"This one's for you, Morph!"
-Wolverine
That was great, thank you very much! X-Men: TAS is one of my favorite shows of all times. Margaret Loesch is my new hero.
Fact 29 just proves once again that if the network thinks it's a bad idea than go full steam ahead because it's going to be a success!
Storm is amazing
⛅❄☔⛄☃🌀
I can't really say I've decided who my favorite X MEN is but I do remember the cross over between this show and Spiderman. I also remember that Spiderman had a cross over with Fantastic Four and I actually thought it was a real interesting twist to actually see Victor Von Doom as a good guy rather than a bad guy.
Who is the best character from X-Men?
Hard to choose
I've never watched so sorry no answer
nightcrawler
+amaris lott I never heard it because it was made way before I was part of existence, my brothers watched it though. So did my friends... I sometimes feel dum when I'm the only one who never heard heard of a video game/anime/cartoon.
+ChannelFrederator Deadpool
107 facts x-men evolution, that show is so underrated!
Honestly that one Cyclops episode that aired two years after the Phoenix ones really messed with me as a kid. I got so confused when I saw it the first time. Was it a new episode? Had my geeky little self somehow MISSED an episode of my favorite show? It was so perplexing. And it was before everyone had the internet so there was no way to figure out what was going on!
Nightcrawler was always my favorite. I remember being so hype when I saw the preview for his episode when I was a kid. Think it was around when Venom was going to be in Spidey as well. Was an exciting Saturday morning for sure. Still one of my favorite episodes to this day.
+Zyx Whitewind we must be around the same age...it was so awesome, wasn't it?
You guys need to do a 107 facts on the Thundercats reboot... and then find the Cartoon Network exec who thought it was a good idea to cancel it, and whip him with a wet towel covered in shards of glass for the next sixteen hours....
Agreed!
OMG I didn't know that the voice of Jean Grey had also voiced Mimette from Sailor Moon!!She was one of my favorite bad guys of the series!
107 facts on yu yu Hakusho!
Yes
+Keemano I second the motion!
definitely
+Keemano I wanna see this
Yes! That show is fantastic!
The only cartoon I watched after work.I kick every part of my house when I miss an episode.
My favorite mutant from the show was omega red! He seemed so unstoppable. Until he was, ahem, stopped... Was awesome though. And the arch with rogue, nightcrawler and mystique was touching. And mystique and sabertooth and their mutant hating son... Mystique was busy!
Yes! Omega Red was my guy! I was so excited when my mom had got me his action figure for Christmas in the mid 90s
Batman:The Animated series got several mentions in the video, which is cool because it and XMEN were probably the greatest comic-to-cartoon adaptations of all time.
Seeing the premiere of the 1992 X-Men as a little kid was like a comic book nerd's version of the Apollo 11 moon-landing.
In the 90s I was way more into X-Men than Batman TAS. I was even wearing a Wolverine shirt in elementary school. I'm so glad to hear that the first X-Men movie took so much inspiration from the show because it was great. And its great to see the X-Men still going strong to this day! To all the people who worked on this show in the past, thank you so much. You really helped shape my formative years and gave me some great animated television!
PsP😊😂
😊p

PpPpp😊
Gambit was my favorite character because he was so cool. My second favorite was Nightcrawler--even though he was not a main character in the series. I liked him because he was a kind but tragic figure.
"PREVIOUSLY...on X-MEN..."
Best stuff ever.
This was amazing! I've been looking for more info and production facts about this series. It was clear there was so much care and passion put into this show that I thought there had to be some interesting tales behind it and this totally delivered that story. Thank you!
I had a really dark childhood but this was one of the highlight of many Saturday mornings for me...thanks margaret Porsche and ofcourse Stan The Man Lee, I might not even know how to read if not for comic books, I spent countless hours escaping and building a moral compass from comics. much love and respect, always.
That people keep thinking that its only boys that likes comic books/animated series/Films are idiotic and needs to stop. I love comucs and used to watch every episode of x-men similary i loved avengers and used to watch that too. spiderman the same

107 Wolverine and the X-Men Facts YOU Should Know
Loush seems like an absolutely incredible person.
I was kinda hoping there would be a fact explaining why the theme song sounds like Whitney Houston's song "I'm your baby tonight"
Frank Bernard uhhhhh. what?
I've been wondering this for YEARS.
tlessmo same here but I can see it now! lol
omg- I thought I was the only one that thought that
Lol agree lol I thought i was the only one.
#98 - "The series was also responsible for its fair share of video games, including X-Men (NES)..."
Uh, X-Men on the NES was released late 1989, while X-Men the animated series debuted late 1992. The two aren't even close!
one of many reasons the game is so terrible...
Lol! I remember renting X-Men NES when I was a kid and being utterly disappointed with how terrible it was. Other than the box art, I don't think it did anything right.
107 FACTS ABOUT SPECTACULAR SPIDER MAN!!!!!!!!!!
I really thought they were going to touch on the recasting of Storm after the first season aired, and how they went back and redubbed her lines for the DVD release.
That unnecessary break is why I'm not subscribing to this channel. It interrupts the whole thing to tell us something that could be said at the end or even the beginning. If you really need to be annoying to self advertise, don't do it in between facts. Especially when the following fact was continued from the one right before the interruption.
5:50 Characters' looks were inspired by Stan Lee's artwork? Ok.
My favourite is Storm
Now we’re getting Xmen 97, crazy after all these years we’re getting the reboot
I think you mean " based on Jack Kirby's art" -_-
+JayFChthulu I second that. . . . .it's a shame how much jack kirby is underappreciated.
+Daycow417 It's even funnier when you consider that Stan tried to give him recognition several times during the Marvel age of comics and has been doing it ever since.
There was even an instance when a newspaper interviewed Stan Lee and he brought in Jack Kirby and made an emphasis on how important Jack was for the company, only for the newspaper to completely gloss over this fact in the interview they published.
Arturo Casab Not true there were also times that he didn't give credit and marvel passed off jacks work as stan's. No one is blaming stan for everything there's decades of work between the two and others. It is difficult to ascertain who did exactly what during those times. So to say anything with absolute certainty is ludicrous . . . .and yes ill say it again for a multitude of reasons Jack Kirby is underappreciated
How about 107 facts about Xmen Evolution ❤️
'' Stan Lee's artwork '' ? BULLSHIT! Stan was just the writer. Give some credit to Jack Kirby! Get your facts right!
Ahh! Because of number 78 I would love to see 107 facts about Redwall!
The greatest animated series, only Justice League comes close to its quality
what about Batman? they should bring justice league back... Spider-Man was great too
Tara Strong also voiced Princess Ariels daughter, Melody, in the movie The Little Mermaid 2: Return to the Sea
I prefer the x-men animated series that looked way better, and was basically just the days of future past and Phoenix arcs. It also included kitty pride
I like what I saw, but I was hoping to see more facts about the artist(s). The quality of style and detail are both legendary. Some episodes looked less detailed.
107 facts about Dan Vs.
Yas
Yep
YESYESYES
Yesssssss
yeah dude
My FAVORITE show of All Time, I wish it would make a comeback. Every Saturday Morning I was in front of the Tv ,refused to miss an episode. This should be MANDATORY source material for Xmen movie writers and DIRECTORS.
I am a die hard fan of everything X MEN.
I can’t believe we’re actually getting a xmen 97 revival!!! On Disney Plus LETS GOOOO!!!!
I... Im sorry.... Stan Lee's Artwork?...
+Afonso Lucas it's so weird how many people credit him as the artist. sad because kirby was such a legend
Just finding this channel and enjoying it. Loved the X-Men Animated series when first aired; worked the night shift and would watch before work. One point in this 107 however re: Beast and his blind GF. DC did that with Ben Grimm (the Thing) and Alicia Masters (a blind sculptor) in Fantastic Four in the comics years before.
Do 107 Facts about Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
Teddy Riggs yes yes oh my god
Swear this was the best X men show ever. I wish Beast was big like this in the movies. I can't watch to get my opportunity to work on something like this
Definitely the best X-Men ANYTHING.
The movies SUCK.
koshej613 Yea they're not for fan more more people that want to see action.
beast is a huge character in apocalypse and first class
Same. I wish I was rich so I could fund a reboot.
Pryde of the X-Men is very good. I suggest you check it out sometime.
Wolverine's Australian dialect, though, was a major mistake.
shophet125 Shadowcat wouldn't show up till evolution and wolverine and the X-men
It's got some good animation and a neat roster (the one used in the classic arcade game, in fact), but it is INCREDIBLY corny, even more so than the 90s series.
Thanks heaps guys! Great video - loved this series as a kid. Favourite character though will always be Wolverine.
107 facts about about spider man and his amazing friends
I am not sure if Stan Lee actually drew any of the pannels for Xmen. I believe that Kilby was the artist while Stan came out with the Ideas.
107 Facts about Invader Zim! It got revived as a comic recently, so why not celebrate that?
though I was born the year this show ended, I love this show. I discovered it later and started binge watching it. It is one of my top 3 favourite shows, the others being 1. Avatar the Last Airbender, and other being Justice League.
107 Facts about Megas XLR
I didn't know how much I wanted to watch that until I did. Thanks for all the hard work.
Actually not to sound like that nit picker person saying you guys are wrong but more so a fun fact instead that the person who voices Wolverine actually came back for the EA fighting game in 2005. That was the last appearance of Catheral Dodd as Wolverine. Just the game is forgettable and I don't remember what it was called which is why I don't blame you guys for forgetting it. But when I played it it was quite nice to hear the best Wolverine back at it again.
Great job! Got more information watching this then I have from looking all around the internet the last year
107 facts about Danny Phantom
