Wolverine And The X-Men News

X-Men: The Animated Series,Marvel Animation,Marvel Comics

Pivoting away from Wolverine is only making the Disney+ revival better.

With only four episodes left to go until X-Men '97's season one finale, the Marvel Animation series is only continuing to earn more praise and attention. The show continues the narrative of X-Men: The Animated Series in some pretty unexpected ways, all while folding in some newer elements of Marvel continuity.

That fact is both a blessing and a curse going into X-Men '97, especially considering how much of X-Men: The Animated Series was already devoted to telling Wolverine's story. Across the show's initial run, we extensively covered Logan's origin, his time with Alpha Flight, his team-up with Captain America, his past with Lady Deathstrike, and countless escapades with the X-Men themselves.

We already know that Logan is a great character, both as a formidable fighter and a distinct personality. The handful of moments we have gotten with him — the impossibly cool combo with Gambit's powers, the comedy of errors of him helping deliver Madelyne and Scott's baby, his rapport with Morph, or his heart-to-heart with Jean — have still illustrated how great of a character he is, without needing to make him the focus in yet another X-Men storyline.
