I dunno if this will actually happen but just wanted to say I think this is brilliant and interesting.

Only kina flaw I can see is Bastion seems to be from the far future? I dunno if we know Cable's or Bishop's time in this but I thought it was a good ways off.

Don't they make it explicit the Prime Sentinel and all that stuff is from the future? Beast's comment about how the tech they're seeing is way ahead of our time, and then Cable being the one who knows how to deal with Prime Sentinels.

And I thought all that came from Bastion.

I was (well, still am) very unfamiliar with Bastion, so when I saw the new bad guy was a purple dude messing with technology, I thought it was Feilong from the recent X-Men/Iron Man comics and thought "wow that's a pretty recent pull for this show". I guess little did I know of the X-Men's long history of purple bad guys (that aren't The Purple Man™)

I know with Marvel's Darkseid ripoff they generally forget about his origins on Saturn's moon Titan and his weird rapey brother.

I mean, yeah, probably. At the end of the episode "twilight" in Justice League Superman stays behind for the specific purpose of making absolutely sure that Darkseid dies along with Brainiac, and he basically succeeds.

The end of Superman TAS is a good Darkseid moment but before that there's some episodes where he's got that issue of just being the recurring baddie with some scheme the heroes stop while he grumbles and punishes an underling, in the Supergirl two-parter he's trying to drop a comet on Earth and after he's foiled gets mad and has Granny Goodness tortured because of it. I think Darkseid probably gets it worse in the DC Animated movies than the original DCAU, he just shows up too much to try and up the threat level for various movies, and it feels kind of lazy. Reign of the Supermen was bad for this since they use him to replace the role Mongul originally played in the comics alongside Hank Henshaw.

I need the operatic X-Men theme on all streaming services pronto.

Also there was a hint of homosexual tension between Xavier and Magneto. I kept expecting them to kiss the entire time.

There were, however, ZERO hints between Wolverine and Morph. Like it was right there in front of your face. haha Love it.

MAGNETO LIVES.
