This Marvel series impresses everyone

A few months ago, the big names of Marvel have announced that they want to reduce the pace in terms of production to focus on qualitative and not quantitative projects, making the release of superhero series and films much less frequent. This decision was undoubtedly not taken lightly, especially given the mixed reception of the productions of phases 4 and 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and she finally seems to be paying off. Indeed, a series which began its broadcast on Disney+ March 20, 2024 seems to tick all the boxes…

This is of course X-Men 97, an animated series that follows the one from the 90s, and which seems to win over more fans every week. The first three episodes had already convinced the press, but the rest of the first season left more than one viewer speechless, especially the fifth episode which marked a real turning point in storytelling. Since then, social networks have been flooded every week with reactions from fans, and this was again true after the broadcast of the eighth episode Wednesday May 1, 2024…

Don't miss X-Men 97 for this reason!

While all that remains is 2 episodes before the end of the first season of X-Men 97the conclusion of the eighth episode shook up the community, notably thanks to its many cameos. We won't go into detail to spare people who haven't started the series yet, but if one tweet sums up the series well X-Men 97it is indeed that of MarvelStory :

As can be seen in the replies to the tweet from MarvelStoryeven if the vast majority of Internet users seem to share his opinion, others regret that X-Men 97 is a sequel and not an original idea. For some, having to watch the series dating from the 90s to understand certain references seems prohibitive, even if this formula is applicable to most series and films from the MCU since its first phase.

However, you should know that it is not at all necessary to have seen the X-Men animated series to enjoy X-Men 97, as the pilot episode of the new series puts the characters into context from the perspective of a mutant who meets them for the first time, much like viewers who have not seen the original series. This same method was used for the pilot of the original series, so if this is the argument that stopped you from watching X-Men 97, forget it and start the first episode straight away!
