Ignoring the ‘original character’ comment as either a misunderstanding or a red herring, because I don’t think they’d waste Esposito on a newly invented character, I think he’d make an okay Doom, provided he hammed it up appropriately and didn’t play the same version of the same character he’s been playing since breaking bad

X-men ep 8 - Yaknow, it took a second pass for me to realise that none of the people at Roberto's mother's party were part of the Sentinel Prime Legion for the simple reason that they too rich to care about any (imagined) mutant threat. They had no reason to submit to the process.

I wonder how many unrelated super villain plans got ruined by Magneto's big EMP attack? Awful lot of useless death lasers out there right now. Green Goblin would he dead if he was flying around New York when this happened.

logger posted:Forget the villains. They now need to get to work on holding the funeral for Tony Stark. Wow I totally forgot about that. I remember now in Spiderman TAS for some reason his suit stops working and he's basically crippled and helplEss without it. At least that's my memory of the big arc with Spidey and Stark and Cap and The Beyonder. (Maybe this is always the case, I have no knowledge of Iron Man. But Charles Xavier periodically can walk again in the comics so I assume Stark also varies) P.S. Related, I know that stuff with the Beyonder is based on a comic. In the comic when Doom takes his power, is he eventually thwarted by his own weaknesses? In Spiderman TAS Doom's mind just can't handle having so much power, his every neurosis and simple human weakness does him in. I'm just curious now cuz I was told the whole "Symbiote drives you crazy idea" originated with TAS and I'm now curious what else it might have invented.

By this point I'd imagine Tony's invented tech that is shielded/immune to EMP fuckery, he's probably fine and/or drunk.

Stark can generally move out of his armour fine. Though if his armour shut down while he was in it, he probably wouldn’t be able to move. Still I agree he would probably have EMP protection.

I’m assuming when he got upgraded to the Extremis armor he was probably immune to EMP stuff

I presume people are forgetting that the various Marvel cartoons in the mid 90s had a loose shared universe, meaning that it's not the MCU Stark in 97, it'd be this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y63i2NR9-LE And he had a whole chest plate thing that kept his damaged heart going, so an EMP might gently caress him up, IIRC

God that intro sequence is awesome. Hulk is actually like a threat, a monster, you don't know if he's going to be a hero or he's going to just rampage through it all. Not that I don't enjoy the MCU version but I'd love to have a more horror-based Hulk film.

Was the president ever brought up in the Spider-Man series? It seems like the series that’s most clearly connected to X-men from what I gather.

My favourite little tidbit about that Hulk series: Neal McDonough voiced Banner. Yes, that Neal McDonough. Hulk, Fantastic Four and Iron Man all got retooled in their second seasons. The latter two resulting in much better animation and writing (Iron Man dropped the short lived Force Works team and instead adapted Armor Wars, and FF just tweaked it's tone to be a bit more kind of retro), and Hulk... well... I hesitate to say it was a downgrade, as I dearly love that they brought in She-Hulk and Cree Summer does a great job as Jen, but it was a marked shift in tone from the more traditional Hulk on the run stories the first season stuck to.

It definitely wasn't thought out even to the extent that the DCAU was in the early days (and even that didn't really get codified until Justice League, see the appearances of Green Lantern and Flash in Superman TAS), it was more that if Iron Man or Storm appeared in Spider-Man, then they'd be voiced by the same actors as in their shows, have the same designs and same personalities, broadly.

Yvonmukluk posted:I think you could do Immortal Hulk as a series. You could definitely do a Hulk series with body horror, existential dread, the green door etc, but the thing that made Immortal Hulk truly special was that it drew on over 600 issues of history and brought pretty much every member of the gamma family back into a single shared story. An adaptation would necessarily need to cut a lot of that - although X Men 97 is rattling through plots about as fast as Ewing did in Hulk, so maybe I'm wrong.

I see, thank you both for the information. I don't know anything about Doom or the F4, really. What I do know is from Spiderman TAS and conversations about this last episode. Some people online are expressing incredulity Doom would ever work with a guy like Bastion. He's apparently of Roma descent and would be as opposed to working with him as Magneto has been wih Red Skull in the comics is the argument I've read. Basically, fans insist that, while he's a villain, he's not a super evil one, but more of a Magneto type. And in Spiderman TAS, he changes Thing back into normal human looking Ben Grimm and then promises Ben not to kill any of the heroes, just teleports them away with the Beyonder's power. So he seemed like a decent enough guy so far as these things go. Of course Beyonder will recruited him for Team Evil so I dunno.
