Hope the “Wild Man of Borneo” shows up in this series revival!

I'd put money on Cyclops being written out/dying by the end of the first season and Storm taking over as leader.

If you look at the politics of the writers/producers it lines up.

We can only hope so.

Bruh I hope they don't take Duggan into the fold for this Animated Series.

Oooo. I like this. We can also get an episode dedicated to Jean kicking Creed's ass.

I hope they would do that more often. I think there is a panel like that on the upcoming Sabretooth. Its ironic how he gets his own book but not Jean.

I wish they'll write Wolverine(the most annoying character ever created) out too and replace him with a reformed Sabretooth, that'll be glorious.

Yes! I'm so sick of Wolverine being forced down our throats

wolverine may not be that popular with this message board but generally speaking he is very popular with X-fans and should play a signifcant role and to be honest I thought they balanced his role on the series pretty well unlike evo where imo there was to little and then watxm where it was centralized around him completely which also should not be the case.

Quite the contrary actually. They like or hate him. They will still talk about him no matter what lol. It still counts. Its like an echo that open doors for new fans who will obviously be curious about him. I study web applications and I am pretty sure thats how our cognitive function works with social media.

And fingers crossed is swiftly followed by Jean being replaced with a character who actually has a personality like Emma.

No doubt the casuals would eat her up compared to Jean who's basically seen as a running gag at this point.

Oh, that's not happening. The executive producer of the show is a huge Jean fan (he has a tattoo of her as Phoenix on the inside of his forearm) who is fully aware of the **** she's received due to her inaccurate characterization on the show, so, expect a revamp of her character.

I am so glad they are keeping Jean! I cannot wait to see Jean being portrayed as the powerful, capable and loving character that we know and love!!

Me neither.

Yes, I am aware, seeing as you posted that tweet several times in various thread. It doesn't stop one from hoping though.

Personally having any "super fan" of an individual character In charge of a large cast of characters is a bad idea, but we shall see if bias is able to be kept in check I suppose.

Good. I hope it's seared into your brain.

Isn't that what we've had during this era? I mean, Hickman is a "super fan" of Emma, so...

[PolarIceFire]

I see this TAS revival/sequel much in the same way I do the comics' Krakoa revamp, as a giant What IF...
Marvel never sold the film rights to Fox?!

I'm also keeping in mind the role reversals Evo engaged in, like Colossus & Gambit being with the Brotherhood, and WatXM's dual, present/future storylines. I could see '97 utilizing either or both in their own way, in an effort to subvert expectations in a similar fashion, as it would allow for more creative freedom, via a wider variety of artistic interpretation.

In addition, two other things stand out to me from the original's final ep, 'Graduation Day':



GENOSHA & SUNFIRE!!

And of course, I have high hopes of seeing all my favorites & more...



in a NEW LIGHT, and BETTER THAN EVER, just like HoX, DoX, & RoX!!!
