The X-Men animated series is what got me into comics. Saturday morning, turning the TV on to Fox. I had an awesome childhood.
Same!
It was a magical time 😌
I was busy getting laid.
I consider this the real golden era of comics. Bringing comic books to other mediums and exposing a whole generation to these heroes and stories was massive for comic properties.
Same here, then after X-men I believe it was spider-man and his amazing friends. But for sure kids today don’t really care about that all they want is phones or tablets. Our era was different and definitely better than now days. Take care fellow mutants
Lets not forget Apocalypse returns with a new body before the X-Men ended.
No he didn't. I haven't forgot anything lol
Yes I was saying the same thing so he's all ready back
That doesn’t make sense. Can you explain what you mean a little more?
@@greyjedi6430you may have forgotten the episode where he used Fabian Cortez’ body to return.
Season 5 episode 10
The main villain in SEASON 1 is M.sisinter
Damn I almost cried when he said it's been almost 3 decades since the animated series. Lolol we're getting old 90s babies 😭
How do you think we feel being born in the 80’s ? 😂🤣
I remember waking up every Saturday morning to watch X-Men the animated series and being so excited.I hope this show lives up to its potential
Same!
*FOX KIDS* will always have a special place in my heart.
😊
I'm going in with low expectations. They been letting us down alot recently
@@Gizmofuriouswhat do you think now?
@@APEXGAMING99 it’s great. Other than not liking some of the edits to the original song but that’s minor. I’m happy they didn’t jam that morph is non binary down our throat is great as well.
I've seen X-Men T.A.S at the end of my teenage years. I've taped every episodes on multiples V.H.S tapes.
Great memories!
Damn that's cool. Any tapes survive??
Wolverine: I go where I wanna go!
You forgot bub!!
I wish Colossus was a part of this show. He had an episode in the original
Saturday morning cartoon vibes, initiate!
To me, my X-men❤
If the first episode doesn't start with, "Previously on X-Men" its all downward from there!!
Lmao,i know
Agreed! I think they’re smarter than that.
Rather… I HOPE they are
That depends if that recap video is going to get a 21st Century Animation update since that's going to show scenes from episodes from that 90s Show
Forsho 😂
Is nightcrawler in it?
Lol the "they should just make jean Cables mother" line really aged well
Or didn't? 😮😊
Apocalypse has already left the astral plane, he is free. He took the body of Fabian Cortez at the end of Season 5 episode 5: The 5th Horseman.
It should be on "The Fifth Horseman" episode. Final Season. Fabian Cortez started the ceremony with Jubilee as the sacrifice but he was saved by Beast with Caliban's help and escaped. The ceremony continued with Fabian Cortez, apologizing to Apocalypse that he has no vessel for him. But Apocalypse said there is, and he merged with Fabian Cortez as his vessel.
I had to check before I commented because I felt I surely couldn't be the only person that knew that. Yes at the end of that episode Apocalypse clearly possessed Fabian Cortez and used him as the vessel for his return. Thank you.
core memory: jumping over and around the couches on Saturday morning imitating each x-men during the intro
did you ever claw the couch with knives in between your knuckles ?
Omg yes
I always did the signature x slash myself Wolverine was my favourite but I think cyclops is my favourite after the years
Mr. Sinister in the alley used to scare the bejezus out of me. Was the coolest
That really scared you that bad? Wow that’s crazy
@@JD-hu9sg he was prob a child bro
PLEASE DISNEY! Don’t screw this up!
Do not fear Disney will mess it up with it's DEI agenda.
They already are messing it up making Morph nonbionary and making that part of the issues for the show and that had nothing to do with the show
@@kingzrjaygaming8536 reactions for the first three episodes are starting to show up and everyone who has seen them agrees that X-Men 97 is amazing and even better than the original show. So, yeah... all the Morph haters are going to have to swallow their hate pretty soon. 🤷
They are on it. Already fired the showrunner/series creator
Trrrust me as someone who went to the premiere they didn’t this show is straight heat you’ll see
apocalypse isn't trapped in the astral plane anymore. in the fifth season episode, the fifth horseman, he took over fabian cortez's body and banished him to the astral plane in his place.
Morph was the only one in the team that could make wolverine laugh.
Variant Comics wirh the clutch video at the perfect time. Thanks a bunch fellas!
This is the recap video i needed! Thank you, it saves me watching 76 episodes in a row
Same, but also low-key makes me wanna watch 76 episodes in a row too 😅
currently re-watching all seasons @@tomjohns2208
But where can I watch the original series
Disney+
@@tomjohns2208 not in India's Disney+.. perhaps its region specific
I knew I couldn't be the only one going back to watch all the original episodes in order, to re-familiarize myself with everything & the order it happened in. I started a few days ago watching as many episodes as I can each night before bed & I'm just getting done with season 2
PS: I'm so stoked for X-Men '97!!
I just wish they had chosen to emulate the earlier style, and not the last season a bit more. But looks awesome anyway.
I always remember X-men because I always felt the type of connection between Wolverine and Jubilee with my youngest sister it’s stupid I know. Also that intro music 🔥
as someone who hasn’t seen the original one in FULL i was a bit confused about some parts in this new series. But i’m living for this show ❤
4:58 you can’t tell me this is not a shot from *Captain Planet.* 😂
All the info I needed to start ‘97. Thank you! Very stoked for this new show.
Watching this after Watching all 3 episodes of X-men 97' so far. So dope that Nathan is cable
It was awesome. Just watched the first two episodes. Magneto taking the high road.... is a nice sentiment
it was legit shocking. He had ever reason to go full villain mode again, but he does well. He’s still very much magneto, and a villain through and through, but he is, for the sake of Charles his equal, trying to change.
Happy to see a happy, cheerful Rogue again.
It's been decades of her being portrayed as a sad character.
I want to see more of Storm, Jubilee, other mutants who weren't part of the animated series.
Wdym? Storm & Jubilee had huge parts in the animated series.
Absolutely excited about it! Out of all the animated comic cartoons from then like Batman, Superman, Spiderman, etc., X-Men was my favorite. Ready for this!
Thank you for this amazing recap. while I'm going to be quite new to this and i do not have time for the whole show of the old one it's great to know a bit before. I'm going to watch 97 right now!!! can't wait to be apart of this community.
The video I needed! Thank you!
Apocalypse escaped the astral plane and possessed Fabian Cortez as his vessel.
I just need to see Jean randomly fainting again.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 precisely
I always loved the frienship between Charles and Magneto
Tomorrow would be the premier. After watching the original series 2 years ago, along with Evolution & Wolverine & the X-Men. I’m really can’t tell how excited I am.
I needed this. I definitely watched this but that was like so long ago. I’m old. I have bad memories
I can't wait to see this. I loved the first series and recorded every episode on VHS. It started coming on while I was stationed in Germany, I never missed watching it.
Love the epic intro to these videos.
How did you know this was just what i needed😊
i love yall for this!!!!!
So excited🤯!
Thank you for this..was hard to follow the series because we only have 1 tv before..and the people at my house wants to watch basketball than this..and this was showed in a 7pm time slot not in the morning
more nightcrawler PLEASE
Yes I'm EXCITED!!!!
And if the series go well, I just wish they give sequels to X Men Evolution and Wolverine and the X Men
As a late 90s kid who grew up watching recorded VHS tapes of all the X-Men and Spider-Man cartoons from my older brothers collection, thank you for this quick refresher! I hope they do bring back the 90s Spider-Man cartoon and maybe have another crossover like they did with the episode of The Beyonder.
Omg I was literally in my pajama pants eating cereal when I put this video on... now I feel called out
Thank god for this, bc no way was I going back to watch 76 episodes to get caught up.
Hopefully, you, the members of Variant Comics, can make a history of Colossus and/or Rockslide soon. Thanks
X-Men 97 with Spiderman 94 cameo 🙏
They already put out a Goblin Queen toy. The clone Jean is happening. True to Canon and I love it.
I still have every season of X-men on dvd , I’m excited but I’m worried Disney is going to mess it up
After watching episode 3 of X-men ‘97, I don’t think they could’ve handled the Madelyn Pryor situation any better. It was very easy to follow and didn’t screw up any characters relationships in me eyes
So the professor took a medical leave
😂
Can't wait 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Can’t wait for the series. Itching to see another throw-down between Wolverine and Sabertooth. I wonder how the opening credit’s gonna end now that Magneto’s on the other side. Cue the music… ta-na-na-na-naa-na-na, ta-na-na-na-naa-na-na…
Things I'm looking for in the new show. The writers remember Rogue, Nightcrawler, and Graydon Creed are related in one form or another. Nightcrawler is Catholic.
And I'm focusing on the new voice actors for Cyclops, Magneto, and Gambit. THEY BETTER MEASURE UP! RIP Norm Spencer and David Hemblen.
I'm a month late and watching this before i binge it all.. Let's get it!
I know its not marvel but I hope Disney brings back Gargoyles
We been told ....The fight scenes in 97 are outstanding... With X-Men using their skills wisely and kicking ass..
Age of apocalypse would be such a great storyline to explore since the absence of charles and magneto in charge of the xmen….
Thank you, I did not want to have rewatch the old one😭🙏
THANK YOU!!!
My brother ❤😃
Best you seen them trailers absolute cinema
The thing about madalin Prior (hope I spelled correctly) is they already made her toy figure (Goblin Queen) so I am sure they are doing it that way.
Yesss... I love old super hero cartoons. Thank u.
I dont mind the cable thing...the x-men change their timeline so many times that jean being his mom is the gist of it...i am sure, she still see him as his kid regardless❤
*sees
Legit needed this cuz it’s been YEARS….I don’t remember shit 😂
They did release an X-men 97 Goblin Queen figure, so we will have to wait and see.
"it would fix a lot of continuity issue and be way less confusing" LMAO. watching this just after having finished episode 3 :P
Are there any information regarding the lawsuit for the theme tune? It was filed by people behind Linda the Police Woman, a Polish TV show. It sounds like Marvel is still using the tune?
It’s funny watching this after watching those first two episodes …especially the baby mama stuff lol
I really hope they pump up the framerate. The animation looks like the low quality later part of the series. Jerky movements make it look like a Flash animation on Newgrounds.
I dunno if you have seen the new x-men 97 action figures but the Madelyn prior figure comes with a baby cable accessory so it looks like they are going the comic route.
Since you did the origin of Sonic the Hedgehog characters Tails and Knuckles in your previous video, when are you going to do history of Sonic the Hedgehog himself?
When are you going to do history of JSA member Cyclone along with DC Sabbac since he's the main Villain of the Black_Adam movie?
Annoying continuity incoming 😂
Love morph. Recently been catching up on exiles and hoping to see plenty of morph on this show. Especially since he's taking on a more AoA/exiles look.
Can you do history of Alfred Pennyworth, Batwing, Flame Bird, Batwoman, Azrael, Signal(Duke Thomas), Bluebird, Stephanie Brown and Carrie Kelly?
Damn it, he doesn't die. He leaves to go to the Shi'ar homeworld where Lilandra says that she can cure him.
Watch the whole video.
Nothing to do with the video love you're content, appreciate you Arris your a country man, you even look like a childhood friend of mine.
LOVED this show... Think they'll make (or remake) an X-Men game set in this universe?
I would love a continuation of Spider-Man The Animated Series. I want them to continue where the series left off.
I too want to see a continuation of Spider-Man!
I can't wait for him to reveal himself to be nonbinary too! Mary Jane can become Marty and Eddie Brock can finally remove the mask that society forced him to wear all these years to reveal that he's actually been black and in a wheelchair all along. Oh, and he's the real hero, Peter was just using his white privilege to steal Eddie's glory.
Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it.
Is Jean working at a Foot Locker?
Waiting for the premiere of x-men ‘97 lmao 2 and a half hours left
The goblin queen a.k.a. Madeline Pryor is confirmed to be an XMen 97 because of toys that have come out with characters like nightcrawler and the executioner and Madeline Pryor, a.k.a. goblin cream so they will make cable the son of Madeline prior
“Goblin cream”
😂😂
Sorry I meant goblin queen
Welp Scott will have a kid with the real Jean one day
Maybe
Excited to see most of the characters I fell in love with as a kid in the 90's. Would rather they stick to the comics as much as possible as the MCU takes enough creative liberties!
Since you did the history of Conrad Carapax, Are you going to do history of OMAC, Overthrow, Dr Polaris, Posse and the Brotherhood of Evil who are all Blue_Beetle villains without a Scarab?
Can you please do origin of DC the Reach who are the aliens who created the Scarab of the Blue_Beetle since no one else has done an origin video of them?
Since you did the comic book origin Dan Garett, Ted Kord and Jamie Reyes the Blue Beetle, can you do comic book origin of DC Black_Beetle, Red Beetle, Green Beetle, Yellow Beetle and the Silver_Scarab?
Can you do history of the villains of the Stargirl TV show like Mr_Bones, Dragon king, Brainwave and Icicle? When are you going to do history of the Flash Villains Mirror Master and Top since the second half of season 6 of the Flash has finished?
Can you do history of the Atom, Major_Force, Captain Atom, Plastique, the Blackhawks, Rocket Red Brigade, Maxima, El-Dorado, Element Woman, Metamorpho, Mr Terrific and Plastic Man along with the history of the Villains Dr Alchemy and Abracadabra?
I'm halfway through Season 5
I can't wait to see the Xmen 97 next week it's going to be epic I hope that sequel shows more Scarlet Witch this time and Apocalypse did came back from the dead in season 5 thanks to Fabian Cortez
Thank youuuuu
In Season 5, Apocalypse returned by taking Fabian Cortez's body (Season 5, Episode 9 or 10). This transpired in the 90's cartoon, I'm not sure how Apocalypse returns in the comics, but it's probably the same way.
Anymore podcasts coming soon???
I wouldn't mind they finish spiderman to they left us with the cliff hanger with searching for mary jane that i forgot spiderman unlimited too
Jean = Madelyn Pryor. We haven't seen the original Jean since the Pheonix Saga.
Here's my X-Men checklist as preparation for X-Men 97:
X-Men shirt: ✔️
X-Men comics: ✔️
X-Men Marvel Legends figures: ✔️
Only thing not checked:
X-Men Epic Collections and Collected Edition Volumes
Also, I'm excited to see what's going to happen in X-Men 97 especially since Madelyne Pryor is going to be one of the villains in the show alongside Mr. Sinister. I hope they'll adapt the story arcs from the X-Men comics such as Inferno, Mutant Massacre, Fall of the Mutants, Fatal Attractions, and Project Zero Tolerance.
And Remember: Apocalypse did escape the astra plane by possessing the body of Fabian Cortez.
One cool fun fact about morph is that he was specifically made for the show.
My favorite character in 97 honestly
This was the best animated comic book show ever and I love Batman the animated series was great but I feel like the fight senses and audio is way better on x men
"FOR THE FUTURE!!!!"
I hope this goes well and they revive the spiderman show as well bc they eneded on a cliff hanger, i wanna see it come to a conclusive end 👀
One of the clips looked as if blink will be in one of the episodes, age of apocalypse?
Them bringing spiderman searching for MJ would be great but I'm conflicted since they also added Stan lee
