Heroes/Warriors Rising got greenlit and that's a cartoon about mostly recent young heroes airing right now. I think the X-Men have a good chance to get a cartoon. If it will be any good, that's another thing entirely.
The newest Spider-man cartoon looks alright, but Ultimate was terrible. Earth's Mightiest Hero's was great but that was also ten years ago.
EMH was great, probably the best an Avengers cartoon could be, but yeah, that was another era, before the MCU really was the force it is now. The current Marvel cartoons are very weak.
Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!
I'm in desperate need for one but not until they get another animation crew. Their current toons are horrid and they either look flat and lifeless or too kiddie.

I think that they are doing so well on film, they know they can just phone it in for the cartoons. I mean, they are raking in billions at the box office, what's a little tv advertising cheddar on the side? The kids will already gobble it up no matter what it is, so why try harder? With the new Disney streaming network, though, they might actually step it up.

It's called Marvel Rising, and that's actually a series of shorts called Initiation and a TV movie subtitled Secret Warriors. It's not the same 26 episodes of 22 minutes format as Guardians, Avengers, or Spider-Man, instead it's essentially Marvel's answer to DC Superhero Girls, which is also released as shorts and movies.

Would Disney have made X-Men TAS and X-Men Evolution if they bought Marvel in the late 80s or late 90s. I don't have any hope for a new X-Men animation project either, though I think for young kids, it will be good for them.
That's what I'm hoping as well. The good news is, with a new X-Men cartoon expected not before 2021, who knows what the status of Marvel Animation will be by then. And if all possible Marvel content is to be moved to the new streaming service, there's no way they'll be going for low-quality productions.
