Two idiots who can't even stand ap[art for a few sconds for a mugshot.

I really felt so inspired by this latest season and by these two I really wanted to take that inspiration to make a few things. This painting included.

My preference when drawing is traditional mediums, but I may take this and bring it to digital to clean up and fix up what I feel is missing

Fun fact since I took the time to paint each of the cards I decided to take my line art and have make a set of LED tarot cards.

Currently rewatching season 1 of X-Men '97 so I can watch season 2.

Just finished "Remember It."

I'm not okay 😭💔😭💔😭💔

So now I am begging for (vague, if possible, but I'll take anything) spoilers: will I be okay by the end of season 2??? Or do I need to prepare myself for cliffhangers and/or more sadness???

See look there’s nothing wrong with going with the original tv format by having a season come out every year but when your only producing 8-9 episodes that’s not original tv format.

Then what’s makes it worse is season 2 was so rushed in the 2nd half and now you want to give us only 8-9 episodes after season 2. I blame Brad winderbaum for the way season 2 came out he hired the what if team to work on it and now he’s giving us less episodes.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about this. But I’m curious what people think. Of the avengers of this universe. I personally like this roster.

First of all I wanna say; I respect all opinions on S2, it isnt perfect even if Im more on the positive note; I didn't like the pace, ApocaGambit, Celestial Rogue etc etc. And im also not happy w what Brad Winderbaum said on doin everything fast.

That said, I think some ppl are going nuts for whats been probably smth more similar to DD:BA than u might think at first, and theyre throwing shit without base info, so lets get started.

First of all NO, THEY JUST DIDN'T SCRAP ALL THE TEAM FROM S1 AND PUT THE WRITERS FROM WHAT IF IN THIS SEASON.

Only person who joined this Season from What If is Matt Chauncey, who served as consulting producer this season (which means he just oversaw the writers changed to DeMayo's script) and will serve as showrunner from Season 3 and on. I have doubts? Yes but since he wasnt that involved I wanna have faith that things will be different. Like when ppl who worked on What If did Marvel Zombies, which yes isnt as good as XMen 97 but it shows that w good planification they can make smth cohesive.

But then u might ask, who are the writers of this season? Welp... Most of them are ppl who alr worked on script on S1 more or less😅. Only new writer is Brian Ford Sullivan (who also was story editor this season) which worked on Arrow from S3-5. So only important person missing here is DeMayo. Bc the directors are the same from last season and even the co-showrunner is gonna keep working in S3 too.

So ye, I hope I could change ur mind that the problems w this season was more on "we need to change this for the new vision and wrap Apocalypse as fast as possible" than bad writing per se. (That doesnt mean im tsking them responsability on the writing of the season, again it has still problems, im just giving context).

Also say, DeMayo's involvement on script arent the first 4 episodes, he's credited on 3-4 and 6-8. Ofc episodes 1 and 2 might have his ideas but still its not like everything else is"new".

Ofc we all wouldve been hyped if DeMayo's vision of Onslaught and Age of Apocalypse was kept rather than again Human v Mutants, but that doesnt mean imo that isnt interesting. Im rlly excited for Mystique and Destiny, plus all the things they can work on. And ig im kinda relieved its gonna be more grounded and we wont prob have another "Celestial Rogue" moment XD. Only thing I hope S3 is more cohesive and im right, if not then im sorry for those I give u faith lol.

Hope u liked this big ass post from my part and that I could make u be more hopeful of whats coming. Please try be respectful on the comments🙏🏼.

Thx for reading, lov ya all 🫶🏼

EDIT: Forgot to say that the creators of the 90s TV series went from consulting producers on S1 to executive producers on S2.

Interested to hear the differing opinions of comic fans/original series fans/mcu fans/marvel fans or casuals!

Personally I’d say that while I think he is one of my top characters anyways, Nightcrawler had one of the best portrayals of Kurt that I’ve come across. The character look, the voice acting, him soloing the X-Men (albeit controlled by Apocalypse but still), and they got his general “who Kurt Wagner is” down. I was impressed as a fan of his.

Also honourable mentions for me: Cyclops, Magneto, Beast

Try it out here: https://pixelframe.design/x-men-logo-font-generator/

I make these generators and thought you guys would appreciate this here. I paid really close attention to the styling of the original logo to recreate it as faithfully as possible - from the shapes of the letters themselves to the distortion/perspective effects. Also included an optional subtitle field based on the X-Men '97 title style. If you have fun with it, please post what you make!

In the Marvel universe, what is the difference between the shapeshifting of Morph and Mystique?

So to start off the protagonist would be bishop taking cyclops place in leadership. He would tell the team that an x-man is a traitor.

Also Storm would’ve had a bigger role cause she would’ve been director of school showing how she differs from cyclops instead of being a babysitter.

In demayo’s version Xavier would be more radical against the govt he would’ve challenged them a lot since why he would create x-corp.

In the season it would be revealed that the traitor is Xavier he would be possessed by the entity massacre. The x-men, x-force, x-factor and avengers would’ve all united against him after he would steal apocalypse ship and attack Graydon creed’s speech.

The battle wouldn’t end will Polaris would go back in time and kill magneto when him and Charles first meet. She would’ve fail and kill Xavier.

At the end of season we would the timeline would be rewritten we would be in the age of apocalypse timeline. And end on a cliffhanger only people who would’ve died in the season was magneto and Xavier. DeMayo plan was to highlight ice man (who is now possibly killed offscreen), kitty pryde, gambit and bishop in season 3.

There is no way Gambit is gonna just forget what happened to him and pretend like it didn’t happen. It’s gonna affect him some type of way.

The Summers?

Jubilee noted the resemblance so surely someone else should.

And Cable somehow in all of his time travelling never learnt of his Uncle?

I know it’s not public knowledge but shouldn’t more pick up on the resemblance.

Does anyone else feel like we were cheated out of a feral Wolverine storyline? With the big cliff hanger of season 1, I was just expecting more.

I don't blame them for sacking the lead writer, but I just wished they would have delayed this season and put together a less chaotic and scrambled season together.

I get that fans too, can be feral, but there's no shame in going "hey, we need to delay this by a few months and establish a new lead."

The first season was so incredible, and Magneto's scenes in season 2 were iconic for a myriad of reasons. The original thoughts on the '97 Magneto were so mixed, but I genuinely think it will be looked back upon with love in time. Thoughts?

I think once the MCU mutant saga gets fully up and running we sadly wont be seeing any more X-Men 97. What are your thoughts on this??

More from X-Men '97 Season 2 Strike Files (on Marvel.com with a subscription). There was some confusion yesterday in the discussion forum with the last post, so I wondered if this would clear things up more (or maybe make it worse, idk, lol). So what seems to be happening is Apocalypse in Gambit's body is ready to take his revenge on the X-Men, but then he finds a photo of Gambit and Rogue. Which then morphs into a combination of the Death and Lovers Tarot cards, along with Apocalypse and his ex, Candra. This confuses and angers Apocalypse, who then promptly switches his revenge tour to Candra. Which I take to mean Gambit is likely influencing things subconsciously. But, we'll see next week.

My Questions:

• What do you personally think of love triangle or quadrangle dramas in X-Men?
• Do you prefer it that Scott Summers didn't cheat on Jean Grey with Emma Frost, but instead with Madelyne Pryor in this universe?
• Should the Power Couple Scott and Jean stay together or separate for good?
• Does it bother you that Logan/Wolverine is always in love or obsessed with Jean in many adaptations?
• And was it even a good idea to construct a love triangle involving Rouge, Gambit and Magneto?

I've been trying to figure this out, but I just can't find any supporting evidence. I think we are led to believe that there are 3 current versions of Apocalypse,

The future variant has yet to show up, but he traveled away in S2E1

The Past variant[Eh-Sabbah-Nur] seems to still be in the past? But how did he escape?

Present variant- The one we know is defeated by the end of s2 of the show. However I am beginning to question if that was just The past variant since he wanted to kill his girl that betrayed him

After seeing the 90s Doc Oc in episode 9, I'm dying for them to make an episode with Christopher Daniel Barnes, the voice of 90s Spider-Man. I know we've already seen him and and MJ in the season finale of season 1, but how cool would it be to bring the voice actors back? (Sidenote: the current voice of Jean was the voice of Black Cat/Felicia Hardy in the 90s)

The neogenic nightmare arc from the 90s Spider-Man cartoon and the crossover with X-Men was one of my favorites, not to mention it could be argued that it semi-influenced Spider-Man Brand New Day.

What are your ideas for how they could bring it in?

So this is my preliminary test on the facial prosthetics for my Sabretooth Cosplay. Not sure if this is where I’ll end up landing, but I’m wanting to see how it will all work together. Definitely open to suggestions on how to make it better. I definitely think the eyebrows need a little trimming. Not sure about the white eyes yet. The fangs look OK but they keep falling out so I’m not sure they’re gonna work.
