Like I said before, I actually like this show more than I like the 90’s X-Men cartoon, and while I really enjoy Wolverine and The X-Men, I think I like this show better than that one too. This show just has some of my favorite versions of these characters, like Cyclops, Toad, Rouge, Nightcrawler, and Avalanche.
As for Spyke, I can see where Chris is coming from as I’ve never really cared much for him, but I never really disliked him either. There just wasn’t much that made him stand out as a character until he joined the Morlocks in season 3. That said, I did like his role in the episode where Hank McCoy turned into Beast.
Magik was never in the show, but I thought the reason Colossus was working with Magneto was because he had abducted his family.
There’s not much more I can say in this comment that you guys didn’t say in the episode. Although I did notice one thing that was a bit off. Chris said that season 1 has a lot more of the prejudice toward mutants when that wasn’t the case at all (mutants weren’t even public knowledge in season 1). It was season 3 and 4 where they started to deal with humans prejudice toward mutants.
Also I’m surprised you guys didn’t mention that X-23 was basically the Harley Quinn of this show, in that she was created specifically for this show and then brought into the comics later.
One last thing, happy birthday Chris.
The Beast episode WAS fantastic!!
Wooh Hooh! Please do Rescue Heroes!
Will do!
