  2. X-Men ’97 – Season 2 | TV Review

    It’s always easy to remember how much the X-Men rule whenever you’re watching X-Men ’97. Season 2 has come and gone, and I can’t wait for season 3. What a fantastic show.

    I know a lot of people are down on season two for whatever reason, and I of course agree that it didn’t have the same that moments in season one had. But, you should always expect the first season to be better than the second season of shows.

    I really liked the stuff of Apocalypse, and I’m interested to see where he pops up next now that he’s essentially trapped. He is and always will be the ultimate villain after humanity.

    Magneto’s death scene was wild. I wasn’t expecting it at all and just assumed that they would be rescued at the last possible second. My assumption will be that he will make his return in season three (similar to Gambit this season)

    One of the great things about this show is how they made Polaris a big deal. She feels like a main member of the X-Men now, and they worked hard to get that across. It wasn’t just a “Well, she’s here now.” It was well earned.

    My big complaint is going to be a big one for everyone in that it sure felt like Gambit’s return was rushed. It didn’t feel like they let you sit with it at all.

    I don’t think this season had the highs of Season 1, but it certainly didn’t have the lows for me. Yes, I’m looking at you Mojo. I never need to see you again.

    Bring on season three!

    ¿Sabían que la serie X-Men 97 trajo de vuelta a los actores de voz originales de los años 90 pero cambió las reglas del juego para el actor del Profesor X?

    El estreno de esta continuación animada en el año 2024 significó un enorme esfuerzo de producción para mantener la continuidad histórica con la serie clásica. Los creadores lograron reunir a las voces originales en inglés más icónicas de la infancia de muchos, como Cal Dodd en el papel de Wolverine y Lenore Zann como Rogue. Sin embargo, el cambio más drástico en el elenco principal ocurrió con el personaje de Charles Xavier, el Profesor X, debido al fallecimiento del actor original Cedric Smith.

    Para cubrir esta sensible ausencia con el debido respeto profesional, la producción contrató al actor Ross Marquand para asumir el rol del líder de los mutantes en la temporada de 2024. Lo verdaderamente curioso del asunto es que Marquand ya tenía un historial interpretando a variantes de Charles Xavier dentro del Universo Cinematográfico de Marvel en proyectos previos. Además, para mantener el lazo con la vieja escuela de los años 90, los productores decidieron no dejar fuera a otros veteranos del elenco original cuyos personajes ya no encajaban en la trama principal, reubicándolos en papeles completamente nuevos, como la actriz Catherine Disher, quien pasó de ser la voz original de Jean Grey a interpretar de manera magistral a la abogada Valerie Cooper en los micrófonos.

  10. On the one hand, the X-Men '97 S2 finale showcases a creative team doing their best to overcome structural limitations outside their control.

    On the other hand, Gambpocalypse is really dumb.

    Check out my full review of the finale!

  15. From the ComicsXF archives: as X-Men '97 Season 2 comes to a close, here's a story about the impact two episodes of the original animated series had on the X-Men's comic book history. #XMen #XMen97 #XMen97Season2

    comicsxf.com/2025/11/28/one-ep

  16. #XMen97: I didn’t like the last episode and the whole season 2 is low quality. In the last episode they made the Celestial a dummy doorman. Watered down Gambit’s “death” which essentially made the season 1 episode trash. I still consider the Ace of Base part a peak though. Very fitting and done beautifully. These people also can’t handle Apocalypse either. It was a mess in the movie and it is a mess in this cartoon as well. Lousy scripters as usual. All 9 episodes were a bunch of ‘mehs.

  17. CW: X-Men '97 S2E09

    #xmen97 doesn't have the most plot but it really makes up for it in vibes and action. The battles give everyone something cool to do with their powers. Rogue's celestial armor was a neat design, especially with the constellation trails in animation. I didn't think Apocalypse would go down so easily!

    Short season. Glad there's more planned!

  18. #XMen97 S2 ended in a very sad way, but one that worked in my favor, so I'm sad, but not THAT sad.

    Ahem.

    Anyway, great second season! Though, like the first Xmen97 season, it does quite often suffer a bit from feeling like storylines are being condensed quite a bit to fit into 9 episodes. Crazy stuff happens, but then -- poof -- it's resolved either in the same episode, or the next.

    I'm not sure if that's better or worse than struggling to fill 20+ episode seasons... 🤔

    Just needs a little more time to breathe, I guess.

    Still, though: quite enjoyable as it is, and we're fortunate to have it.

  19. Best single moment of the season is still Jubilee's jailbreak.

    Best ongoing theme? Jubilee CONSTANTLY trash talking Havok.
