I was worried X-Men 97 was just nostalgia bait but after reading reviews I'm excited to watch it.

I didn't realize this as a kid but Mystique framing Gambit for murder in the original animated series was just her way of trying to keep him from banging her daughter.

Gavok posted:Yeah, the first Magneto episode ended with Xavier blasting Holocaust PTSD into Magneto's head despite the helmet, so that never really happened on the show. I remember that issue! It was the first time i realized that Juggs was Xaviers brother. I probably had read that when I was a kid in the 80s but it just slipped my mind or I didn't register. Does anyone else hate that in a lot of media, Juggernaut is a mutant, and not the Avatar of Cyttorak? The early x men cartoon straight up has "I'm not a mutant, my powers are magical!" But then both X-men and Deadpool movies have him as just another mutant?

Defiance Industries posted:Sometimes they would also just say that he had done a thing that had the word magnet in it. His mind is magnetically shielded. His followers can't turn away from him because he has a magnetic personality. The very early X-Men comics even treated telepathy a lot like a electromagnetic phenomenon. Xavier's powers could be blocked by the same things that blocked radio signals, he could sense electronics and even had a plane he could remote-control with his telepathy, Magneto could use his magnetic powers to astrally project, etc. Fuckin' magnets, man.

Now I haven't watched for a couple of decades, but wasn't that a non-existent problem since they literally couldn't bang in the first place?

I was expecting to have it on as background noise with maybe a little nostalgia kick here and there, but hot drat this show fucks.Caros posted:I love it because there is a part of me that thinks 'No, that is dumb. He'd have to be supporting all those sudden movements with his drat neck muscles, which would cripple him almost instantly' It's the rad part. Not the jock rear end in a top hat in an 80s movie part that doensn't get what comic books are for.

Gravitas Shortfall posted:Gambit just needs to get really, really into latex The only option. They definitely haven’t introduced a tech that seems to painlessly and reversibly disable mutant powers via a wearable device. I wonder if Nightcrawler’s coming back to give Wolverine another hard-sell episode-long sermon about his Catholicism.

In “Spiderman and his Amazing Friends” or whatever it was called, there was an episode where ex-X-man Firestar goes to a reunion at the mansion which Juggernaut crashes. That iteration was strangely faithful, sticking to the mystical backstory as Xavier’s brother. Also Wolverine was Australian, which lol how prophetic considering Jackman.

Ahhh the Wolverine: Apex predator of the Outback. Growing up in Alberta we had to watch for the rampage of the Kiwi. Not really well known but the Kiwi eats at least a thousand kilo of Grizzly Bears and Moose daily. Only thing scarier is the Platypus. Saw a duckbill pull an entire Tim Horton’s into a river once. All of Beaver Creek was wet with tears as we heard its cries disappear into the depths. Man X-Men 97 hit my nostalgia button HARD. Also laughed at X-Cutioner appeared as I realised 8 year old Dog In Space would have shouted “finally!” I thought that character looked so cool as a kid.

Huh I just found out that cartoon is from the early 80s, and not the late 60s/early 70s like I thought.

In the comics have they ever done a wolverine in the outback in 19xx, because if they haven't they should imo. go all in on it, fighting kangeroos etc.. like his training in japan but cooler. could probably get a new villian out of it

DrBouvenstein posted:Is Leech a kid? I thought he was just short. Leech is usually a kid, yes. I don't know if the show itself ever said his age, and it's entirely possible he's just short, but the general idea in most media he's shown up in has always been implied that he's a kid.
