There’s also Bastion pulling strings for Xavier returning. Him releasing the news of Xavier being alive will divide humans & mutants ever further. His “death” brought people together. The fact Xavier is alive & allegedly has a alien empire at his beck & call can leave severe implications

You def called this one! Only that the divide is also caused by the ploy of Xavier's death and now the murder of Gyrich.

A controlled ‘crazed’ magneto is likely who Bastion will use to kick OZT off. With his Prime Sentinels saving Kelly after revealing Xavier is alive (and allied with aliens) to increase the possible threat.
After watching this last episode, I think when Cable mentions that "he is coming", I think he's referring to Apokolypse and not Bastion. Magneto might become weaponized by Bastion. Xavier will return, try to stop Magneto and we'll get Onslaught by the end of Season 2.

Rogue has been infected by Bastion. Rewatch the episode where Rogue was reading the mind of that individual and saw Nimrod and then she’s in Mexico. Something is missing there and we will see the results in one of next three episodes.

9:39 To be honest Bastion doesn't even need to do all that. He just need to get the footages of Rogue attacking Gen. Ross' base/prison and that would look like the mutants are attacking humans to the general public.
I really love the fact that X-Men 97 is covering Operation Zero Tolerance because the original comic run was in 97 right after the original X-Men Animated series ended. Too much of a coincidence and I love that kind of detail.

Your take on setting up for Gambit being a Horseman is a good one!! Super high hopes for season 2, but trying to keep em in check w Beau being out...🙄
You’ve been spot on so far to the point I wonder if you helped write the script for X-Men ‘97. I really do hope they bring Gambit back though. I thought it could be as a horseman too.
I knew Magneto wasn't actually dead! I hope the Apocalypse and Gambit deal actually happens. (Totally not because Gambit is my favorite and I want more of him) I also saw a comment about Rogue and I also wonder what happened between the events of Rogue seeing Nimrod and her being in Mexico. I'm also glad Nightcrawler is playing a bigger role now. I also agree with some others that this new episode could be a prelude to Avengers Vs. X-Men.

I also believe that the "sentinel prime" was only possible because of morph. Kinda the same plot from "days of future past" while mystique was the key for the sentinel program. Sinister studies about morph allowed this men/machine hybrid.

Bastion. I kept trying to place the name when I saw him at the end of the episode. All my brain went to was literally just a fusion of Mastermould and Nimrod. Great video as always! I genuinely love and appreciate you for going over the comics and most storylines that evene I wasn't aware of even though I've been trying to do that deep dive myself. Can only read so many books and it's harder to learn more about the older stories without you or someone similar.
My bro rob always got the real details 💯👍🏾👍🏾
Waited all day for this!!!
The fact that he captured magneto instead of killing him makes me a little worried he'll use him as the "catalyst"
So Good to see Carlos Pacheco art! RIP
