Just when it felt like the prequel comics had redeemed themselves, things take a hokey turn and miss the mark on the quality of the animated series. Maybe the final 5th issue will redeem it?A video version of this podcast is also available on YouTube and Facebook. It's the only way to see Rod's cat.

As quickly as it came, Season 2 of X-Men '97 ended with lot of our favorite "big ole' fight" scenes as the X-Men defend Gambit from both X-Force and X-Factor. We say it a lot here but we mean it, we can't believe it is already over. Share your thoughts with us as we discuss the episode, the season as a whole and mentally prep ourselves for the wait for season 3. Oh, and with regard to Val Cooper, just remember that JC WAS RIGHT.

Two of the most moral characters in X-Men history must weigh in on the fate of Graydon Creed and his crimes against mutants (since humanity *shockingly* didn't hold him accountable). We are still a little bit surprised how Magik was treated here, but that means something deeper is brewing. Right? RIGHT? A video version of this podcast is also available on YouTube and Facebook.

So the episode name was pretty obvious that Danger was going to be a big issue for the X-Men in this episode but what we didn't expect was for Polaris to steal the show with an awesome new take on her character compared to the more generic version from the original Animated series.

Logan hasn't always been the greatest guy. He is the best at what he does and (in this case) he's the best at putting the lives of people he doesn't really like that much, with one exception, at risk. JC and Rod dive into this horror and easter egg filled episode as the halfway point of Season 2 as Morph, Sabretooth, Lady Deathstrike and Maverick head to the Weapon X facility for two big surprises.

We've been waiting more than two years to say it... X-Men '97 Season 2 is here! Our fears are assuaged about their being a sophomore slump as Season 2 dives right in to Cyclops, Jean, Morph, Storm and Wolverine in the future alongside a young Nathan Dayspring and Mother Askani in a pivotal moment in his evolution to becoming Cable.

It wouldn't be a true X-Men series if we didn't get some classic Cyclops trauma moments (caused by Jean's death). With 2 episodes left, it was time to escalate and we have an electric kaiju and see this Wolverine go FULL berserker. And it's pretty damn entertaining.
