Since I know you genuinely want to get in touch with Scott McNeil I’m replying to this in hopes you’ll see it, there’s a mostly transformers focused KZfaqr named TJ Omega who has done several interviews with Scott for over a decade now I believe, if anyone could get you in contact with Scott, it’s him.

The Generation x comic is so good. It deserved so much better. The criticism about the school being so empty and Xavier not being around is explained by the Gen X comic having Emma and Sean mentor the kids at Emma's old school from the New Mutants days in Boston.

@samkaranja5709 2 ай бұрын

8:47 to be fair, that's how the Gen X comics were. An offshot of the Xavier Institute run by Banshee & Emma at the old Massachusetts Academy with just a small roster of mutants. The idea of the school being a large bustling academy has only really been around for the last 20 years. For most of X-History, the school has been pretty empty, barely a school. When it was the original five, it was just them and Prof X. When it was the New Mutants, there were no other students, just them and whatever X-Men roster was running around

I mean, the rooster (including Xavier's school being run by Emma frost and Banshee with no Xavier in sight) was from the comics.... They replaced Synth (who can copy any mutant powers) and Chamber (Who is constantly on fire with a gaping hole, which would have made him horrible to adapt even with a better budget, and was the telepath of the group..) with the Cyclops expy and Husk became the super-strong girl... Otherwise, that's the comics team, yes. It's mostly the lack of good plot and budget that is hurting, because the comics the show was "adapting" was popular for a few years, and people did learn to care about the group.

Yep. this was an attempt at adapting the Generation X comics, given the rooster (I think only pseudo-cyclops and maybe super-strong girl weren't main characters from the comics? Wait, Jubile was a main character in another X-book at the time...). Ironically, Skin/Angelo might be the one who stuck closer to the comics, and his powers were not portrayed that way.

There's another X-Men show that actually did get made, but is probably just as, if not, more obscure than this: Mutant X. It aired in 2001, lasted only 3 seasons, and I have heard absolutely no one talk about it. The only reason I've heard of it was because I was scrolling through Tubi and happened to find it; though, I haven't watched it yet. I don't know if you'd want to review it at the moment since Avi Arad was executive producer on it, but it is out there if you want to look at another obscure X-Men thing.

As a GenX’er, and a fan of Generation X (the comic) by Scott Lobdell and Chris Bachalo, you wouldn’t have wondered a lot of these things had you read it. Is it bad, oh hell yes, but the things you comment on like Skin and M are fleshed out (pun intended) in the comic and I’m sure was planned in the future after this back door pilot. Emma Frost and Sean Cassidy were given a place to start the new school in the Berkshire’s in MA. I get you are commenting on the bad made for TV movie, but you didn’t really go into the source material at all. Even less than the show did. And for the record; the shows these days can’t wrangle a 10th of the viewership of today because there are too many channels and streaming services. Something gets an 8 share now and it’s a miracle. An 8 when this aired would be cancelled faster than it aired.

Buff and Refrax are basically the dollar store version of Husk and Chamber. Main reason for the change was because their power would’ve been way too expensive for this for those. I don’t know those characters, husk can cheddar skin and become anything. Like a layer skin can become diamond, metal,stone, lava, or even uranium all underneath. Fun fact, husk had a pretty sweet relationship with Toad. Chamber has psionic abilities. When his powers first emerged, they destroyed his lower jaw, leaving a gaping hole down to his chest. Emitting flame like energy that he tries to control. He’s also a bit of a telepath, which is how he is able to talk now. Except his telepathy only works one way. Like he can talk to you telepathically but you can’t talk to him the same way, unless you’re an actual telepath.
