I love the juxtaposition of one person cringing in horror at what is happening to Wolverine and the other grinning from ear to ear at realizing it's happening was everything

It's a pleasure when you watch people who's really into comics.

"Tell you're over 30, without telling me you're over 30." 🤣💀Love her

I don't think I've ever seen a Marvel show with such fidelity to the original source material.

Ive been waiting for this moment since the first movie, when Magneto asked " that Adamantium doest run through you entire body, does it?"

I like how she’s traumatized and he’s just excited 😂😂 gotta love the comic book nerds 😭

The adamantium getting ripped out of Logan was so gross and unsettling, but damn was it done extremely well!!

i've watched several reaction videos and this is the only one i've seen so far where someone is actually excited to see magneto rip the adamantium out of wolverine rather that stressed or shocked it happened LOL

1:1 exact replica as the comics.. Beau De Mayo is absolutely magnificent.

I have a theory for episode 10. It might not be magneto ending up reversing the EMP. He is dead set on his mind. However, there is Storm. The comic says her powers are not just psionic weather manipulation but also energy. She shares a bond with the Earth. She sees the universe in terms of energy patterns. She can sense the dying of the earth electromagnetic field. I think given her omega status she can channel her energy wielding ability to restore the Earth EMP.

Magneto as headmaster was a smooth transition. No issues came out of it. He was holding up his end. At least three mentions this episode blaming him as leader of the school for what happened

They did it, guys! Dammit they did it! We are now on the road to ONSLAUGHT....

out of all the reactors, only you and Montyverse actually know your shit. I would love to see some XMen collab between you guys. You're great, got a new sub!

I think Kurt's scene with Jean from episode 8 is why she still connected with Storm. Does it matter if you heard it if you know how it felt? Jean and Storm felt the previous convos and love for each other as sisters.

The storm and jean😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

I love your informed analysis. I'm watching too many other reactors shouting about Fatal Attractions and this one starts with you having the set of comics over your shoulders, even opening one to show the page you know! Loved the insight of Rogue playing Colossus' role. Speaking of Rogue, with her additional role in this, I was thinking she might be the one to absorb Magneto and Charles' powers to take out Bastion and fix the planet, and then use THAT mixing of their minds to create Onslaught for next season. Too much of a change? Can't wait for next week's reaction. Thank you!

Yeah, Rogue is in her old outfit, but she's also wearing Remy's trenchcoat. 😢

Jean and Storms' omega level interactions always gets me!!!!!!

1:01 Oh I just realized that that's Bastion's mom, that's why he's crying

Let's be honest: Professor X f***** up big time!

What happened to Logan was some straight up Mortal Kombat type 💩 Luckily he's survived worse. We're undoubtedly getting wild and feral Logan in the future.

Let's go. I was waiting for you guys to drop your reaction. My favourite react channel here for X-Men 97!

This episode is truly remarkable, and the action is masterful! THAT ENDING WAS INSANE! While I do understand Charles's reasoning for giving Magneto the mansion, the man still neglected his students and pupils and he still willinly gave his mansion and the X-Men to his greatest enemy just so Scott and Jean could take a break which is pretty silly. Look where they are now: on the brink of war, he's lost two team members to Magneto (Rogue quite literally went rogue)and Magneto's line: "God's abandon those who believe in them" is such a powerful line. I love how Storm and Jean see each other as sisters, and their bond together is really wholesome. That line: “Make them mind your weather, sister. And them weather your mind" is such a good line! I find it interesting that Bastion still loves his mother despite what he did to her and turned her into a sentinel zombie, which makes me think he's not as emotionless and robotic as we were made to believe since he is part human. It's scary how powerful Bastion is, considering he's essentially a one-man Sentinel factory. I like how the show also explains to us a lot of plot holes without feeling like exposition. Nah, the animation in this show is PHENOMENAL AND GIVES ME MAJOR ANIME VIBES, I LOVE IT! Magneto has wanted to say "SHUT THE F*** UP" to Charles for a while, and that alone is hilarious! MAGNETO STRAIGHT-UP PULLING OUT LOGAN'S ADAMANTIUM, JUST LIKE IN THE COMICS, WAS BRUTAL ASF!!!

Am gonna miss this season so much I don't want it to end I'm gonna continue to watch it over and over love your reactions you guys are great

Saw this episode on my lunch break last week. Had a wide-eyed stare at that last scene and yelled out "Motherf...ers!" when it ended. This show is way too good for what it tries to achieve. My guess they will reveal Val Cooper being Mystique this week. Other than that...I have no idea how this will end. I'm only glad it's not over yet, with Season 2 coming.

There was no blood on the comic version of Wolverine getting his adamantium pulled. But there was a bunch of blood in the animated frame.

Cartoon Logan doesn't know he has bone claws so it'll be interesting to see how that playsout.

Ororo and jean sharing that moment was so beautiful and just was done so well : )

Hey Trent and Julia, great to see you! P. S. 1:01 That's Bastion's mom, that's why he's crying

This was full of fighting game references, but Morph doing Blanka rolling attack and Zangief double lariat as Hulk is crazy

Great reaction. Love the Dragon Ball Z references. I didn’t pick up on that the first time, but you guys are totally right. Can’t wait for the next episode!

I was waiting for this video! Love both of your reaction videos! Can’t wait for the finale! Keep up the great work! Hope you both have a great day!

I'm so glad "all bets are off" in this series.!

I can't believe they actually did the adamantium thing from the comics I just watched a lore video where they talked about it a few days before this episode came out

That blast Cable gave Jean was like a Phoenix power-up. That's all it was.

Love the comic issue choices in your background. Good job.

I'm most impressed with the amazing job Magneto did bringing his Asteroid M back up and getting it looking as good as new. He probably had Sunspot make all the glass windows for it with his power which looks incredible.

Loved watching this with you guys!

The tune at the beginning 1:23 reminds me of the score from American horror story New York City when Sam was getting chased by Big Daddy (manifestation of AIDS) in the post-mortem plain. Safe to say in X-Men 97 for the first season combining with the original this is the darkest season yet

It should be noted, if the Earth's magnetic field goes away, which is what Storm said was happening, it would mean the extinction of all life on the planet. Its what protects the Earth from solar winds and radiation that would bake the planet and strip away the atmosphere.

Yall have the best reactions cant wait for next week!!

I love your X-Men reactions

Her: 😱 Him: 🤩

Cool that you have the Fatal Attraction books on display.

"Hello..My name is Onslaught"

Omg you’re so hyped !!

Dude! I had that T Shirt in the 90s.

I still wish Magneto gave the same speech as he did in the comics during this scene. This actor could have pulled that off PERFECTLY. but oh well, it makes sense you can't think of an epic speech with three claws in your gut. if I'm not mistaken it was just a deep scratch in the comics.

The best reaction I've watched so far🎉

Just found you guys today and was bummed s1e9 react wasn't out yet. Happy I didn't have to wait long! 😂👌

Hey guys Great stuff. Keep it up much love from Sydney ✌️

They took the end of this Episode straight from the Comic and made it into Animation. Growing up I remember Wolverine being My Favorite X-Man and getting this Comic, now as a 44 year Old it still Hurts!

THANKS for this!!!!

According to Jean herself, she remembers everything Madeline did, she just has difficulty telling what is her memory and that someone else was present for.

Before I watch: I've been waiting for this one for 24 hours or more.... After watching: I think you hit all the marks needed. I have been saying in other videos "This season ends with an onslaught or an apocalypse." Trent seems to be pushing the Onslaught angle (and given the scenes, I can agree). My only issue is that I feel like they'd need to set up some characters to make the Onslaught angle work. It's possible they use all of season two to do so, but that feels off somehow. And a couple of those characters are from AoA, but I can't see a direct line to make AoA happen in the show (except for that the M'Kraan Crystal current resides at the heart of the Sun/Sol). And with all the previews/trailers scenes being shown, this last episode has no scenes shown for it. I'm really curious to see which angle they take here.

Yall are the best! Onslaught is coming!!

Magneto can manipulate the iron in his own blood so he can still survive.

Theory about Trish Tiby: she was likely trying to get a story and got in too deep. Got primed against her will.

Just as a note, for all those saying that Magneto is right and Xavier is wrong, Magneto is killing all life on earth other than him, Rogue, and Roberto. We don't see anyone else on Avalon/Asteroid M. I think they said that there was only an hour left when the Blue Team got there and Magneto doesn't seem to be going to get any other mutants. Seems like he's willing to kill all remaining mutants along with humans. Not to mention animals and plant life. Xavier's path is the right one but it's a hell of a lot harder and it means that people will be sacrificed to get there. He's got his own issues and problems (though I honestly think there's a lot of character assassination that's been done on him due to lots of people having daddy issues_ but in the end, his way means as many people make it as possible. Magneto's path is a lot easier and it's a lot more self-satisfying. But it also means everyone dies.

Storm isn't a Goddess, but a mutant like the rest of them. The difference is she has a God complex (and everyone feeds it)

So how are we liking the main course. I mean the appetizer (E 1x5} was tasty but this will stick to our bones.😁

19:41 _maniacal laugh..._ 19:48 *_MANIACAL LAUGH!!_*

Bro!! I have the same T-shirt!! Let’s go!!!

Forge's "electromagnetic reflector" kind of looks like "Kamar-Taj" protection spell...that Supreme Strange used on the Guardians of the Multiverse in "What If..."....he did perform their magic when fighting against the Adversary.

As long as Storm can swim, she should be okay. If not, then maybe a NAMOR (cameo) will save her. Jean will turn into the Phoenix proven that she not her clone was the Phoenix. Wolverine will heal himself and be left with bone claws and an even more feral attitude. Forge will simply eject from the plane.

Wouldnt it be awesome if episode 10 was an hour long?! We can only wish!

That is a sick X-men shirt

I think Charles unconscious that of Onslaught will be released. Wolverine becomes Feral. Jean becomes the Phoenix. Storm is going to unleash beyond her Omega Level

Do you have the Excalibur part of Fatal Attractions, couldn't see it in the background.

To think you have an Onslaught comic right behind you.

Charles doesn't see the field of combat like Scott does...pretty much no one does though, Cyclops is simply the best tactical/battlefield leader in comics(arguably). That said, I think it's entirely likely he was simply trying to save his wife & son in the moment Of course, the teams were foolishly selected given the tasks at hand...Wolverine had no business in space vs magneto, nor really did cyclops. Swap them both for Jean & Cable & see how it goes instead...I think the psionic might of Professor X, Marvel Girl, & Cable would have simply overwhelmed Magneto. Foolish to give Sinister his shot. Cyclops's optic blasts are Sinister's kryptonite. Wolverine can chop up robots all day, sneak in, sneak up. It's a painful degree of contrivance, and it's interesting Scott sort of calls it out, saying he doesn't want to be on the space mission (and come on, a missed/deflected full power optic blast in space will end up costing the atmosphere). The teams were terribly chosen for the tasks

Best show on television, bar none!!!

There is still a lot that either needs closure or needs to be set up to be carried over into the next season. I feel like the next episode will be longer since it is the big finale, and I also feel like there will be a cliffhanger or two to prepare us for the next season. I don't think the conflict will end just yet, and the whole situation between Charles and Magneto will also carry over. It'll be interesting to see what happens with Sinister and what President Kelly does.

Considering you've already got the storyline lined up in order behind you in all those comics. My guess is you already knew what was coming in this episode and what's lined up for Season 2

I have everyone of those comics in the background other than x force. Never was a fan of x force but I love characters on that team.

Episódio ficou top demais

Xavier, while not a typical “villain” is certainly the biggest _antagonist_ in the X-Men. He’s a deeply conniving, conceited, manipulative, arrogant and self-centred, megalomaniacal narcissist - pretending to be “nice.” I found the show very enjoyable in his absence. The moment his down-and-out arse comes back, the show goes back to the same speeches between him and Magneto and their clash of ideals. The X-Men have outgrown him, and it was _immensely_ satisfying to see Magneto tell him to shut up. To clarify: I love the show. Love the comics. Hate Xavier’s character in both for the reasons stated above.

Reações muito boas

Notice Rogue was wearing Remy/Gambits coat with her old outfit..

The fact that X-Men #25 is in the background...

Pulling metal doesn't take long for Magneto. When you're upset and IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIGHT you're not thinking about taking forever to inflict pain. It's going to be immediate, lol. Pain like that feels like an eternity. It's quick to us, slow to Wolverine.

I had that same issue of X-Men as well. It was done brilliantly. All hell is going to happen in the next episode, that’s for sure. Could Jean go full blown Omega/Phoenix again we’ll. But that was funny what Scott said to Cable bout the uniforms. It’s a call back to what Logan said in the X-Men Movie & what Scott said as well.

I feel bad for Logan, even though I know the comics and knew this was coming. I still feel so bad for him. I can’t imagine all of the painful things he’s endured only to survive them. It’s a dreadful burden. Onslaught is surely upon us now.

Sunspot going with Magneto is very meta because Magneto lead the New Mutants, which Sunspot is a part of.

Cyclops, Storm and Wolverine are wearing the same outfits they wore in the Pryde of the X-Men cartoon pilot.

I was pretty much taken out of it due to how rushed such an important story line was crammed in when there was more than enough meat on the bone from OZT. I feel like they wasted FA. I also HATE them switching their uniforms. I truly hope that doesn’t last! I need “X-Men ‘97”, NOT “X-Men ‘79”! And I truly hope Rogue won’t be in that boring green and white trashbag now. I hated it when she was a villain, I hated it when they trapped her in it in the late 90s/2000s and I still hate it now. And these were just some of the things that really discouraged me with this episode.

i feel like the likely members to leave the team is scott, rogue, jean, and maybe beast

There was blood all throughout X-Men '97, but yeah, the stabbing was a shock! I'm so happy this show has a more mature content rating. We get so much more.

mark my words the end game for Sinister is getting to capture the Phoenix dna!! Jean will active the Phoenix Force and raise Hell!!! Episode 10 is going to be awesome

I still can't believe they went there...

i must be the only person that way prefers the marvel girl outfit...to any other she ever had. second place is dark phoenix. ALL the old costumes were back this episode, hopefully to stay for some time!

Will feral Wolverine be a thing and end just as abruptly as it did in the comics? 😅

Roberto’s decision to join Magneto is understandable given that his own mother screwed him over, but also, he doesn’t know Magneto. He knows only what he’s been told which I don’t think is much. As for Rogue, her storyline is following the path Colossus did in the comics; he defected it Magneto out of grief and Rogue’s doing the same. However, Rogue knows exactly what Magneto is capable of and she’s now a party to all the damage he’s about to do and all the people he’s willing to kill. I hope she does see that she’s made a mistake, but how long it will take for the X-Men to forgive her for turning her back on them is the question.

I hope Namor shows up in X-Men 97

*thunder* *Beast and Forge* “Get over yourself we have to save the world.”

im pretty sure in the timeline that Wolverine loses his metal, jubilee becomes a vampire in that timeline. not 100% sure due to how long its been since I've read that timeline but god I hope we get that in season 2.

BRING ME ONSLAUGHT!!!

In the comic that scene had ink blood we got red blood.

Can't stand Cyclops telling at Xavier at the start, bc literally nothing of what's happening right now had anything to do with Magneto being left in charge, Magneto was actually doing a "good" job/acting as Charles would have, and the decision to stay or leave was still always Cyclops' no matter who was left in charge, and the fact they would have had to send Nathan into the future wasn't really Charles' fault nor was it something he could have reasonably foreseen. And while I get that Magneto has to be stopped, it feels like they all forgot that a) again, Magneto was acting like Charles and it still got them where they were b) Genosha was a fixed point and also not Magneto's fault and c) the very next thing Magneto did (the big EMP) saved all of them from being killed or enslaved by Bastion bc the X-Men were outmatched and Magneto was likely collared and imprisoned specifically so he couldn't interfere and Bastion's plan would have succeeded. Nobody else had any plan or idea of what to do period, much less one that had a chance of working. And then Charles attempts to mindwipe Magneto, and Wolverine tries to murder him, but they act like Magneto attacking them back in response is out of line. Which is not to say they were wrong for trying to stop Magneto, but what did they expect him to do after they both tried to incapacitate/murder him????

Your Fatal Attractions comics on screen…sort of. I have my own original holographic issues too!
