Knowing his full story upto present date in the comics, I’d say Charles’s greatest power is his conniving deceit, manipulation and gaslighting. :P

@Smokey1419 Yup. He's also done Ultron in Multiverse of Madness and in What If, and has done some voice work for Invincibles as well. I happened to come across him way early on in his career when he was doing impressions on his KZread channel, and also had his acting reel on there. I remember telling people I knew at the time to check him out, and that I knew he was going to go on to bigger things. Also met him a couple of times and chatted with him for a bit - once before he got his role on the Walking Dead and again a few years after. Really down-to-earth dude.

Three corrections on the Summers. 1) Yes, Vulcan is the youngest brother. Therefore, however, he's not the _third_ Summers brother. But rather, he is the *fourth* one. 2) We are missing still *A LOT* of Summers characters, not just Rachel. 3) If they know what they're doing, they will not add Rachel Summers to this, since she's meant to be unique in all of the multiverse.

Bro....you are right! The other younger half-brother is Adam-X aka "X-Treme" aka Adam Neramani/Summers....genetically engineered from the DNA of Emperor D'ken of the Shi'ar Empire and Katherine Summers from Earth. Rachel Summers is daughter of Cyclops and Jean Grey from another alternative universe. I love you for pointing that out...Cuz even I didn't catch that about the brothers of Summers.

24:53 Don't forget that Deathbird is a mutant among her people too. So that Shi'ar councilwoman that agreed with her had no right to call Charles lowly.

Storm was so very cool in this episode and it was great seeing Charles return.

It was interesting that they asked Charles to give up his memories, and how they touched on memories helping define us. Madelyne Pryor told Jean, "we are our memories!" it was cool to call back on that theme.

I think the whole sentinel situation was what sinister meant when he told Madelyn “ your house is on fire.”

Love that you gave Dave Cockrum a shout out! He designed absolutely iconic costumes, including the Shi’ar Imperial Guard!

I LOVE seeing Storm looking all proper :D 🎉🎉🎉

i love seeing your excitement for kurt! he’s my favorite so it makes me happy when others show him lots of love haha

You mentioned second mutations maybe being hinted at. I felt with Storm regaining her powers and being able to manipulate her costume and going into space, her powers are even stronger than they were before. Later on in the comics we find out she can control the atmosphere on any planet! Hell, she could even kill someone by condensing the air pressure in their bodies.; the black of the costume hints at her forging (no pun intended) her darkness to her whole self. Such good stuff. And the line, "You are an echo of who I am. So let them thunder for I am lightning!" We all know there would be no thunder without the lightning... just like there is no power when we believe lies. So powerful. I love my Storm!

I wanted Lifedeath to be one ep. I hate having to wait another week for Remy's funeral, 'cause I'm still not over it. Also, I hope she speaks at his funeral, since she brought him into the X-Men.

LifeDeath is also split up in the comics. Here in XM97, it served as breathing space between episodes 3 & 5, and now for 5& 7.

Did you see Nimrod inside Master Mold in the intro? Seems to indicate that Bastion is coming because he was the merging of both. While Sinister is revealed as a mastermind here, I doubt that he is the one Cable was referring to when he said "he is coming."

I'm glad you mentioned how interesting it was that Gambit was in Charles' vision and not Erik. I was just talking to my wife about that last night and that i'd not seen anyone mention it.

"milkway ghetto" has become a meme and pop culture history already, trending everywhere xD Funny enough the writer of this show has been fired by Disney, the rumors are because he's got a gay onlyfans page (or that he's difficult to work with).

Storms moment was incredible but The Adversary was an awesome character 👏

The fact that he saw Gambit but not Magneto truly intrigues me. This is honestly the one show in years that as soon as the credits roll, I am hyped for the next episode and cannot wait for the following week. I think maturing the series has done wonders, keeping the idea that, "The fans of the original are adults now." The writers and showrunners clearly are fans, and having so much of the original cast and crew come back shows that. The classic Storm costume made me legitimately squeal in excitement. I just cannot express how much I am loving this show, and getting to see your reactions has been so fun.

I think that the "Gambit" vision is foreshadowing that Gambit's going to become Apocalypses Horseman "Death" he was Death at one point. Could be the cliff hanger, season 2 is how do you save him and get him back?

I love the chibi xwoman shirt

Another exciting episode! The dialogs was WILD! Seeing Forge doing MCU "Kamar-Taj" magic was awesome!!! lots of throwbacks and easter eggs! OG STORM is back baby! every time her theme music plays, I get goosebumps and chills. Professor X is back baby! YEAH! bring on the endgame!

Deathbird and Gladiator were two of my favorites from the comics. Hope we see more of them. Happy to see Storm get her powers back, but I’m bummed they’re not doing the story where she challenges Scott for leadership of the X-Men and wins without her powers.

I really thought they were gonna give us Cassandra Nova, but staying with Sinister and making him the big bad for the whole season makes more sense cohesively.

I think it was Nimrod/Bastion who shot Trask in the back. Somehow, the Sentinels, through Numrod/Bastion, and Mr. Ssinister's plans are aligned. I've been out of the comics games since 2000 (Wolverine #100 was my last purchase).. I know the comics have some stuff I'm only catching up on now. (Krakoa/Hellfire/Sins, etc) and the show like the 90's one isn't a parallel re-telling. So the arrangement of events can be out of order or key players changed (or whole arcs ignored). Given what the previous show has done, I can't help but look for my favorite to show up: Apocalypse. His alliance with Sinister, Deathbird, and ruling the future in the 90's show only helps point toward him. Also, I'm glad I found this channel (thanks to episode 5). I enjoy the deeper lore recalls made. I can get pretty nerdy with X-men up to Fetal Attractions. Sort of fell off after that.

Also another great reaction and commentary from both of you.🙌🏽

I ❤️ that Beau DaMayo (writer for X-Men 97) confirmed that he gave Zack Man Of Steel first flight scene with Superman flying a nod when Storm got her powers back when she was flying again.😭

TWILIGHT OF THE THUNDER GOD! 🤘🖤🖤🤘 Anyway, now that’s out the way, I’ve really enjoyed this series so far. I think Mister Sinister is a red herring, I’m thinking Apocalypse is the person who is really pulling the strings, I’m only saying this mind because where there’s Cable there’s Apocalypse

The Adversary may be gone for now, but I'm still holding to the hope that there's a non-zero chance that we get some version of the Outback-era X-Men.

Lilandra called earth a Milky Way Ghetto. Very funny but true 😂😂😂

Magnetos Anger und Charles Grieving, do you expect an Onslaught appearance?

Listen, I know Kurt and Rogue don’t have any kind of sibling relationship established in this show beyond Mystique telling them, but I still want to see them like siblings in upcoming episodes. Does it make sense? No, but I still like it.

@arc7375

2 ай бұрын

I totally agree. In X-Men Evolution, Rogue and Kurt were always squabbling like siblings, and Rogue eventually made the comment “He like an annoying little brother” referring to Kurt. And it’s later revealed that Mystique raised Rogue and gave birth to Kurt. And the two actually do develop a sibling relationship. They even both stand upto her together for being a bad mother to them both. I really hope we get this sort of relationship or at least acknowledgement in 97. If memory serves me right, XTAS did indeed confirm that Mystique is Kurt’s biological mother and Rogue’s adopted mother (separately). But they (Rogue & Kurt) didn’t have much screen time together, so their relationship, if any, wasn’t explored.

In XME they even tried to make her a more sympathetic mother, by having Kurt stolen from her and her losing him, rather than casually yeeting him into a river like in the comics. XTAS and XME came out in the 90s and 2000s. Having Mystique being his Father would be too problematic and controversial to present to children. And as a gay man, even today, I’d agree it’d be too much to put in a kid’s show. Edit: In short - in the original cartoon and X-Men Evolution, Mystique is/was confirmed to be Kurt’s _mother._

I’m hoping next season we get Emperor Vulcan and Kingbreaker. The only one who could defeat him would be Gladiator but he’d have the Imperial Guard with him if he’s emperor. We also need a reunion between him, Scott, and Alex.

I'm thinking we get more Summers'ing later with that and Hope (and her 🧸) and Rachel! Maybe we get it in the Bright Eyes aka Cable episode to learn about the Summers lineage?

That’s totally correct. I was just being literal, seeing that giant, bright-red lasers come out of Scott’s eyes. Just as an alternative in case they do a switch-up. Much like how “Fire incarnate” is a direct reference to Phoenix, yet episode 3 was about Maddie and the Inferno arc. Cable would be the vastly preferred choice for next week. While it was bittersweet that in her final moments of life, Maddie got to re-unite with her son, it must be so harrowing for Cable who’s probably tried multiple times to stop the Genosha attack and has had to witness the death of his mother many times…

My first thought was when Magneto told Leech not to have any fear, is that Magneto contained all the mutants around him in his magnetic field, and burrowed deep underground. I immediately thought was that Magneto would appear to die for narrative purposes, but knowing him and the setup with Leech, he’d have survived with all of them. I agree that Xavier would have been psychically alerted of Magneto truly died. And he should have appeared with Gambit in the vision. And it seemed very telegraphed to me that Xavier said of all of his memories, he wishes specifically to remember Erik/Magnus, and then only Gambit appeared in his vision, communicating to me that Magneto survived.

Leech what? Leech depowers mutants so he would be no help.

I didn’t like that Lifedeath feels like second fiddle to Motendo by giving it a shorter screen time and then Part II turned out almost the same with the Shi’ar story. I don’t like that Storm’s love affairs are often sudden and rushed with little to no progression and they don’t often lasts. Her relationship with Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Black Panther and Forge in the comics seems short lived. That’s what it feels like with Storm and Forge in ‘97. Had Lifedeath been a whole 32 minute episode by itself maybe we could have seen how Storm and Forge’s love story progressed. I wished that for the first two episodes she still had her long hair and after losing her powers she left the mansion, went motel hopping in Texas, went into depression, cut her hair a lá Ultimate X-Men grieving for the loss of her boyfriend Beast but this time grieving for the loss of her powers, met Forge at a bar wearing a hoodie to cover her messed up hair, then Forge takes her in, Forge helps Storm fix her hair and gave her a mohawk, help her in her misery, help her get out of bed, feed her, bathe her etc. and in her struggle Forge then becomes more drawn to her and her to him. Like I wanted to see her struggle, be depressed, be combative, hopeless so we can feel her pain and her agony and see how Forge dealt with her, fall in love with her in the process and then enters the Adversary feeding on her agony which is the part we saw on Lifedeath Part I. Like there’s so much stuff I wanted to see, like some director’s cut type of sh*t with Lifedeath. I mean I love her storyline and the lesson I got from it but at the same time I’m kinda bummed that her struggle seems so short and then she got her powers back right away.
