It would make sense that this is an episode with at least one guest character. There's another I'd love to see as well.

Dang, Rogue is mad and busting up everything in sight .

The irony being she assumes (justifiably) that the American government was behind the Sentinel attack instead of Sinister .

Also...Rider Kick !

Spoiler

I'm guessing Captain America shows up trying to stop her at the base after this one .

The boot in the original promo clip seems to suggest that’s the case.

My dream is the show reviving the Marvel Animated Universe for a good ten years and THEN spawning off into movies. Like in a couple years Spider-Man '98 debuts and then relaunches for Iron Man TAS, Fantastic Four TAS, and Incredible Hulk TAS (that don't suck for once). And finally some animated series for heroes in that Universe that need them like Captain America, Thor, and the Avengers, as well as perhaps a Marvel Universe show spotlighting everything else. And after these shows have run their course THEN to bring them to the big screen for a Marvel Animated Cinematic Universe.

I thought that you wanted a revival of Wolverine and the X-Men only? I believe that's what you posted a few weeks ago. Mind you, you're entitled to change your mind!

Not quite sure where to put this, but anyway...

From the front page of AnimeSuperhero.com:

"XBox Meets X-Men In Animated Tribute You Can’t Buy"​

"Someone high up at XBox is a fan of X-Men 97. The Disney+ revival of the 90s animated series (which has been excellent so far) is getting a tie-in from an unlikely place: Microsoft.

Behold the Marvel Animation’s X-Men ‘97 Custom Comic Xbox Series X. It’s a variant of the current XBox console wrapped in comic panels, and not recycled ones either: Marvel writer Rich Douek and artist Paco Diaz created two pages of story and art featuring the X-Men 97 cast fighting the Sentinels and Master Mold, just to decorate this machine.

If that wasn’t cool on its own, the console comes with ELEVEN separate controllers, each created in honor of a member of the team and decorated in their colors: Wolverine, Storm, Rogue, Morph, Magneto, Jubilee, Gambit, Jean Grey, Cyclops, Beast and Bishop are all represented. It all sounds great, so where can you get it? ….Nowhere."

Despite my problems with it, 97 sort of has me thinking big.

I'm not happy with a handful of the VA choices in this show: Jean Grey, Bastion and President Kelly all sound very off to me. Mind you, at least it's just a handful of VA's.

Beau DeMayo suggests re-watching "One Man's Worth" from the original series, before the next episode of X-Men '97 drops.

I figured they included a scene in the intro for a reason.

Spoiler

I wonder if Bastion's origin will tie into it. Maybe some Nimrod tech left behind in the 50s (?).

When Rogue absorbed Gyrich's memories it looked like Nimrod had popped up for a second .

It's all very Terminator 2.

Were Bishop and Shard prominent characters in that one? Interesting...
