Right? What I love about those '90s animated series: X-Men, Spider-Man, The Fantastic Four, Iron Man, and The Incredible Hulk, and Silver Surfer - all of those are the MCU before the MCU. The cameos and cross-over episodes in those series were great and as a kid back then, it blew my mind to see many of my favorite heroes share the same screen at the same time.

I still like the Statue of Liberty mission with the team in the first film. It was about the most they gave Cyclops to do out of that whole original trilogy before having to quickly write him off right at the beginning of Last Stand. Even in the 2000s I think Sam Raimi's Spider-Man met more of the fan expectations of having a "comic booky" look compared to what Fox was wanting to go for with X-Men at the time. Though I did always feel like Raimi dropped the ball when it came to Venom in SM3, but as the story goes it wasn't his initial plan to have to feature him in that one anyway.

I loved Age of Apocalypse but I gotta say my favorite comic crossover was a street level event Spider-Man's Maximum Carnage! They were the first comic books I ever read (so I'm probably a little biased) and I only had 3 or 4 parts of the 14 issue story and I had to hunt down the rest which turned me into a huge comic book nerd for the rest of my life 😂❤ Venom and Carnage were and still are personal favorites. Doppelganger, Carrion and DemoGoblin along with Mommy (Shriek) and Daddy (Carnage) together made the perfectly demented supervillain family.... And I believe they slaughtered a good percentage of the Manhattan population if I remember correctly! 😂☠️

I appreciate this deep dive as an awesome refresher... BUT-- you got a bunch of important names very wrong. Victor is GRAYDON CREED, and Victor is Sabretooth's first name... (although, for some reason, they call him a different name in this episode). Lady Deathstrike's name is YURIKO. Her origin is changed slightly to be somewhat in line with Mariko, but they are completely different people

Seasons 1-3 of the Animated Series live rent free in my mind and are INCREDIBLE. I don't recall ever watching the 4th season as a kid but really liked the 4 part showdown with Apocalypse. I didn't know that was supposed to be the end of the series. It definitely felt final so I found it odd when the show came back and looked completely different. Loving X-Men 97' so far!

Thank you Ryan. The memories and flashbacks to Sunday mornings were fantastic. That’s exactly what I needed to jumpstart into the new season.

Just want to thank you for this video. The editing was done so nicely in a funny, informative, and nostalgic concise manner. Sooo cool to relive this epic series and recap everything that went down. I remembered so much but also forgot plenty. God I love the X-Men! Kudos to you!

I can already feel the nostalgia even though I never existed in the 90’s

“You were born” damn. Still bone chilling and the most streamlined articulation of this bigotry and hatred that persists to this day for countless groups of people. Sadly people don’t learn or even see themselves in this.

oh wow I had completely forgotten most of this and just now realized I had watched all the episodes. Thanks for the reminder screencrush.

I appreciate the time consuming work you put into this to get us ready for '97

@alucardxxz Ай бұрын

I remember watching this as a kid every day, every week and every time it came on in syndication. Along with the comics, this was and still is the best representation of the team outside comics and 97’ is definitely going to be watched while eating breakfast cereal lol

Thank you Ryan, Doug, & SC Team - I was really wanting a recap of the entire series before the new one launches on Disney Plus next week, as I certainly didn't want to rewatch everything, as who has time for that (besides you guys I guess, lol). So thank you so much for doing this recap of the entire series. I realize how much I have forgotten and how much I remembered after watching it. It was perfect and exactly what I was hoping for. Crushed it again y'all. 💥

I have been a fan of this series since it first aired, and saw all the episodes (some many times) but never in order as they were not broadcast in order on my local network tv. So thank you for making this video. A definitely appreciated refresher after almost 30 years
