I can dig it, a little reminiscent of that Spot guy being in Spider-Man stuff lately. Gotta throw a recent (-ish) goofball in.



Onomatopoeia gimmick is that he only speaks in Onomatopoeias generally before one of the sounds would actually happen. He's a serial killer who targets street level heroes and vigilantes with no powers.

I always assumed the blue/black thing was the same as it is with Venom, where it was always meant to be black but ended up blue due to 1) The choice of colors used for highlights due to a mix of aesthetics and printing tech at the time 2) People assuming the inverse as a result (blue with black shadows instead of black with blue highlights)

I heard Kev Smith and Ralph Garman read/act out that comic on a podcast once. Could work.

I'm definitely rooting for this show.

Kevin Smith has to be loving stoked a character he co-created is going to be in an animated Batman show.

Days of Future Past pt 2 and the Brotherhood of Mutants attacks the Capitol and Prof X needs the X-Men there. So of course he gives his catchphrase "X-Men, come to my location."

No he didn't. He killed people in some of his earliest stories in like the first year, but after that the bad guys always died by their own hand or hubris.

It’s explicitly based on Golden Age Batman, yes (except they also threw Harley in)

Curious if they’re going to announce an actual release date soon, this has been in development for at least a few years now if I recall correctly

Storm: I shall stop him as gently as the falling snow.

*causes the road to ice over and the car drives directly into a tree*

Also kind of wild how Beast spends the entirety of the first season in jail.

Much like Big Hero 6, the cartoon is actually a big improvement over the original comic from what I understand (I’ve only seen the cartoon however)

Speaking of Moon Girl, there’s 10 more episodes left apparently but it doesn’t seem like they have a release date yet (and a third season is being planned but not confirmed as of now)

Moon Girl's comic appearances kind of suck. She's more of a know-it-all instead of actually being smart like in the show. When she was in the same comic as the Fantastic Four, they dumbed Reed down HARD just to make her look smarter than him.

Basically, you are missing absolutely nothing by skipping the comics as cartoon Lunella is a much better character.

there were at least 3 couples on screen at once during the dance and then 2 (or 3?) more shown separately during the rest of the episode. pretty good for a disney property. also i noticed indya moore and asia kate dillon in the voice credits in a couple earlier episodes, so that was neat

Taking Scott's visor to make him less dangerous only makes sense if you do something like surround him with puppies like Madeline did in Dark Web. Him in a room with two assholes and no visor just means those guys are going to have a bad day.

I don't have a problem with the scene, it's just like the dumbest thing to do. Like asking Wolverine what is the best at doing and how nice is it?

Uhhh, I meant the average goon in universe in case that wasn't clear, can't tell if you thought I meant you.

The average person in the animated universe wouldn't know who Wolverine is either probably.

X-Men '97 showrunner has been fired by Marvel and will no longer be involved in future seasons, or in any promotion for S1. Something pretty significant must have gone down behind the scenes for this to happen just before the show premieres; wonder what.

Well whatever happened, hope this doesn’t cloud people’s perceptions of the show when it comes out. Otherwise it’s probably not going to last very long knowing Disney’s track record with recent animated shows
