Is bishop played by a voice actor that did someone elses voice? His seems familiar yet off for him
I just watched the first 2 episodes of X-Men '97!
It's VERY good. The tone,dialogue, action scenes are all great. It respects the Claremont era comics while also doing new twists.
I love that the episodes are longer.
28 minutes without end credits.
Most of the voice acting is great, both old and new.
After 20 years of being treated like unwanted garbage in the live action films, Cyclops and Storm shine brightly in these 2 episodes.
Negatives
Bishop's actor does a very different sort of performance that doesn't suit him.
Morph's powers have him assuming the abilities of those he changes into.
I will give an overall score after the season is done.
I normally wait till a whole season is uploaded to a streaming service,but this show is so good that it is worth watching piecemeal.
If you have any hesitation about watching,don't.
Bishop is definitely different, but I’d say we haven’t really seen anything of his character yet. In the old series he had the mullet and a goofy guitar riff played every time he appeared; not a bad thing though - Scott doing a genuine 90s “still down with the kids” Wayne’s World reference was absolute gold, so I could live with Bishop being a bit “ZZ Top on the set of Terminator 2”.
First two eps were so good, particularly ep 2. Magneto, Storm, Cyclops, and ‘Jean’ were all MVPs.
So excited.
Couldn't stop myself from creating this.
Sorry not sorry!
ALso the way Mags told spoilers:end of spoilers.
about his mind connection with Xavier, prepare yourself for Onslaught as big bad of season 2

Just finished the first two episodes. Really interesting to have Magneto just come waltzing in and taking over the school. Did Chuck think so little of Scott?!
Also, I hope Storm doesn't stay depowered too long. I know they're kinda following the comics by doing this, but she's my fave and was looking forward to seeing her do her thing!
My opinion is that anyone who doesn't stand in awe of Ororo's power has never truly been at nature's mercy. If you've lived through a flood, a tropical storm, a tornado, etc., you understand what this lady can do, and tremble at the thought.
