Cyclops is Waiting for Me - An X-Men: The Animated Series Weekly Recap

For the penultimate episode of the series (and our pod for this year), Magneto presses the attack and the Inner Circle keeps trying to unlock the Phoenix. And Emma is just trying to keep it all together without letting the world fall apart.

With only 3 episodes left, JC and Rod leap into the 3 part season / series finale of Wolverine & The X-Men. Almost every major character and plot point begins tying into each other as the Inner Circle reveals their plans for Jean Grey and Magneto attempts to start a war.

Rounding the curve as we get ever closer to the finale, Gambit gets called stupid as he takes a paycheck to go after Magneto and Genosha (despite it being kind of abandoned) and nearly kicks off mutually assured destruction.

Possibly the least SEO friendly of Wolverine and The X-Men, we follow future Xavier after he learns about Jean's involvement in the event that brought the world to its knees. With a somehow still active Sentinel named Rover at their side, Xavier, Bishop, Hellion and Marrow head to Master Mold's servers to find out how much time Wolverine has left.

We prayed that we would find out what caused the big explosion in episode 1 before the inevitable series ending cliffhanger and at least we got the payoff here! Rod's first recording from his new place brings some huge moments in the ramp up to the season finale kicking off here. Also, the Juggernaut is in the episode too.

A new take on a classic X-Men sorta-origin story. Instead of Apocalypse, a new sinister benefactor offers his services to an injured Angel after a fight with his father turns into an actual battle with the MRD and his wings are broken and battered.

This one-off episode brings back a character who never made their way into X-Men: Evolution, the Silver Samurai. Giving another glimpse into the past of this version of Wolverine, Logan's love life causes some issues for the team (to say the least).

Everyone's non-problematic TV exec who is actually the entire problem. Coming from deep within the reality era, this 2009 take on Mojo is one of this grossest incarnations yet with the Wolverine and The X-Men team really leaning in while he brings Nightcrawler, Scarlet Witch and a "Special Guest" into the mix.

After a war seemingly kicked off, Wolverine gets a call that sends him back up to Canada and dives back into the Weapon X program. JC and Rod chat about this take on Weapon X with some new members revealed as well as the WatX intro of Evolution's biggest contribution to X-Men lore.

Maybe because we didn't have much experience with it prior but JC and Rod didn't expect a series so filled with callbacks to earlier episodes and solid payoffs. At the halfway mark of the season/series, Magneto makes his big move and we get some awesome character moments and fight scenes with basically everyone. Totally understandable why this is one of the top rated episodes of the series.

Unhinged Cyclops along with the introduction of Mister Sinister, despite a cringeworthy use of the capital X in the title this episode has what we love about X-Men. Oh, and that voice of Sinister, definitely wasn't expecting that!Coincidentally, right before we recorded this JC got to meet the voice of Cyclops, Nolan North!

Per X-Men animation tradition, Wolverine needs some memory loss tied to flashbacks and a trip to Canada where he crosses paths with an old teammate and a fight breaks out. Unfortunately, this episode counters the (spoiler-y) director's canon we were following about Sabretooth being offed in Hulk vs. Wolverine being in this same timeline. But on the plus side, more Department H and, more importantly, we get a solid design on Sabretooth.

A voice that needs no introduction, Lenore Zann is the voice that many of us hear in our heads when reading Rogue in comics to this day. As the first member of both the original X-Men: The Animated Series and X-Men '97 casts to join us, JC and Rod get to hear some amazing tales about her career, the journey after becoming one of Marvel's most identifiable voices and even finding out how impactful the show was decades after the original broadcast. We spend some time chatting about Lenore's recently released memoir and what comes next for her in...

After a LONG voyage at sea, Nightcrawler arrives with refugees to Genosha as the X-Men find someone has infiltrated the institute. Joining us for this episode is LA's Nightcrawler Alain Diaz to discuss his favorite episode of Wolverine & The X-Men starring his favorite mutant!

Some people aren't good parents. Like Magneto. But some kids are the problem. Like Quicksilver. We get X-Men and Brotherhood on this globehopping episode along with the introductions of Nitro (the guy who causes the first heroic Civil War in the comics) and Psylocke!

Despite what IMDb told us that last week's bonus episode for the Hulk vs. Wolverine movie being inspired by Incredible Hulk Issue 181, this episode actually more closely follows Wolverine's debut issue. While it definitely takes some creative license, this encounter between Logan, Banner and the Wendigo hits that classic vibe for us (and has a more satisfying ending than the straight to home video movie did).

So this is a fun one because it is semi-canon to Wolverine & The X-Men but it isn't available "anywhere". Maybe some light Googling will help you find this mini movie where this animated version of Logan encounters The Hulk for the first time with some members of a Department H run team of mercs. Friend of the Pod Pablo joins us to help fill in some gaps in the comic lore in a not-safe for Nickelodeon animated romp. Pablo on Deeper Issues:

So our "mission of the week" framing theory goes out the window as no Professor X drops in from the future. Instead, our favorite swamp rat Gambit breaks into the mansion to steal a power inhibitor (which proves to be a massive issue for every version of Forge ever).

2024 was quite a year for mutants. This year, 2025 will be dedicated for Cyclops is Waiting for Me to Wolverine and the X-Men. Much like X-Men: Evolution, Rod and JC missed this one during it's original airing but we are already hooked with the show's mystery and the big super hero feel of it. In Hindsight, we missed out.

Thank you for joining JC and Rod on this X-Men: Evolution journey. While we were fully prepared for a full on cliffhanger, we were pleasantly surprised with how the series wrapped up. Sadly, we would have loved to see more of this.

It all comes down to this. The two part series finale of X-Men: Evolution brings most of the stories to a head with Apocalypse and a scheme to activate all the world's dormant X-genes.

You can't have an X-Men cartoon series that doesn't dedicate at least one episode to the relationship between Rogue and Gambit.

With Professor X's son David debuting here, this is one of the episodes that hurts when you know a fifth season never happened. Diving deeper into Xavier's past is always fun and knowing about the potential of his son compared to comics and other media, it's a little bit of a kick to the shins. Oh, and Professor X in all media continues the trend of being awful with exes.

Getting our Wolverine-focused episode of the season, we get to see X23 in action again along with the debut of Evolution's versions of Omega Red and Madam Hydra (a.k.a. Viper) and the only ever appearance of Gauntlet. As Rod points out, this is full fledge super hero action and (mostly) a full move away from the high school drama of the early seasons. And we are pretty sure X23 takes out full squads of Hydra soldiers.

When the biggest villain in the series has been unleashed, let's not address it beyond the cold open. Makes sense to JC and Rod. Instead the X-Men get the cold shoulder from Bayville as the Brotherhood become unlikely heroes (despite being the cause for the original disaster) paired up with the mention of an election.

No teen drama here as the X-Men and Acolytes search the Sphinx as they try to stop Apocalypse from returning.

X-Cutioner's origin is revealed in a flashback while three separate teams of X-Men are throwing down with the bad guys. And we see why the prequel comic didn't finish up before the series aired (or concluded).

What a wild ride it has been. Nearly 25 years after the final episode aired, we got word about the story continuing from X-Men: TAS and JC and Rod have spent another 2 years getting ready for its launch... and now Season 1 has already wrapped up in amazing fashion. Listen up as we wrap up the 3 part season finale here.

They really did it. We got full on Fatal Attractions in the penultimate episode of Season 1 and it is a doozy. MT of Guardians of the Palaxy & Heavy Spoilers joins us as the X-Men need to split up and fight on two fronts. Gold Team needs to stop Bastion who hasn't been taken down by Magneto's EMP blast that has shut down the globe and Blue Team heads into space to convince Magneto to prevent a full on Armageddon. And it ends on the biggest cliffhanger of the season (somehow, even bigger than all the rest).

This is one we have been excited to make happen as A.J. LoCascio hops on to talk to JC and Rod about his portrayal of one of the most talked about characters of the entire season, Gambit. We talk about A.J.'s audition process, his relationship with the X-Men community and finding out about Gambit's fate.

The Xavier Files is our offshoot interview show focused on conversations with members of the cast or production team about any X-Men Animated Series.

In this special bonus episode, we have Matt Raub returning for our spot on the Podcast Showcase at Golden Apple Comics in Los Angeles during Free Comic Book Day (#Maythe4th too) to chat about what's happened thus far and what we are hoping from for what's to come next with X-Men 97. Along the way, we do some trivia with our first live audience to give away hordes of steelbook blu rays.

If this episode sounds a little funny, it's because we were in an outdoor area with our live audio feeding into nearby speakers. But shoutout...

Kind of wild to think that after more than 2 and a half years of waiting, we are in the thick of the season finale already! Though the big bad wasn't a huge shock, Bastion's actions this episode continue to raise the stakes and look like they are leading to more iconic moments. But at this point, who knows? This team has continued to delight and surprise JC and as Rod says, he has no idea what's coming next (and neither does JC).

In the penultimate story before the 3-part finale, you'd think this week may lighten things up for us but instead it just keeps building.

JC & Rod react to Nightcrawler joining the time while Rogue is running through the globe and America's Top Cop in search of Bolivar Trask. If you're going to hit something, Rogue isn't pulling her punches. Especially now.

After the emotions of "Remember It", Chris Riley of X-Reads and the Uncanny Experience joined us for what we were hoping would be a little bit of a more lighthearted week. Thankfully, alongside some dramatic moments this week also gave us the sassiest character on this side of the gallery with Deathbird. With a surprise return for Xavier to the series and the story of Storm taking on The Adversary, LifeDeath Part 2 gave us (but especially Rod) some moments to shout in excitement as the second half of the season kicked off.

It's the night of the Genoshan Gala. With the Watcher overlooking the event, we know this was going to be a huge moment but we don't think anyone was prepared for this.

JC, Rod and our guest Cosmoe of the Cosmoe Show react to one of the biggest moments in mutant history (with the likes of the Phoenix and Dark Phoenix sagas). We can't emphasize enough the emotion contained in this episode and all the respect we have for the team who put it together. The cast and crew gave us something special here.

There was so much to talk about with "Remember It" that we needed to separate our own episode into 2 parts. In the highest rated piece of non-comic X-Men media, Remember It welcomes Genosha into the UN as the X-Men are represented on the island nation by Magneto, Rogue and Gambit.

Cosmoe Tayson, one of LA's Gambit superfans joins us for this emotional episode where this love triangle comes to a head and we see Astonishing X-Men storytelling.

Moments after Sinister reveals their replacements to the Nasty Boys, he welcomes his Sinister Seven of the Mutant Menace to the team and sends them out to wreak havoc on the X-Men. Most notably, he actually has them attack Wolverine AT A BAR. He didn't think it through.

We NEED a new sidescrolling X-Men Beat 'em Up video game. This episode proves it.

In this interesting presentation with 2/3 of the episode being 1 story and the latter 1/3 being part 1 of the classic LifeDeath story.

Kinda Funny's Tim Gettys joins Rod and JC to gush about his love of the series so far and to deep dive on the relevant as ever Motendo episode as Mojo looks to move to the most dominant form of media (video games) and then to the incredibly serious and heartfelt tale of Storm, Forge and their quest to help...

JC and Rod are humbled as we are joined by Isaac Robinson-Smith, a.k.a. the Voice of Bishop. We aren't going for spoilers or a big scoop here. Instead, we are excited to share this amazing conversation as Isaac talks about the process of becoming an X-Men as a voice actor, his own personal connection to the character and what it's like having a character he is voicing show up on the shelf as an action figure. Make sure to enjoy this conversation with the voice of the Mutant Out of Time and sound off below.

"We're in hell!" Morph making sure we know that the Inferno has kicked off and kicked off hard. We get our first dose of "Secret Babies" as JC and Rod discuss what it means to have two Jeans (with one very obviously being the Goblin Queen, thanks Funko for the NYCC spoiler) in this surreal nightmare. And we get 97's first appearance of Sinister. Literally the only thing we can say is we wish this could have been more than one episode for such an epic story. And shoutout to friend of the pod, Charley Feldman for their writing...

With a two episode launch, we are posting up a second day in a row to not leave you hanging like Episode 1 attempted to leave all of us with the revelation that Charles Xavier has left everything (including the X-Men) to Magneto. Already a highlight for the series, JC and Rod talk about the speech given by Magneto at the UN, the seismic change in the team's dynamics with Storm and this week's Jean Grey cliffhanger. X-Men 97 is coming out of the gates swinging on its debut week.

To say we have been waiting for this for a while is an understatement. Mirroring the debut of X-Men: The Animated Series, the X-Men 97' lineup finds themselves rescuing a young mutant and go toe to toe with the sentinels. This is what we've wanted and been waiting for.

"Going Woke" before it was Mainstream. (Yes, we had to.) Even though they aren't outlawed, the X-Men are losing students at the institute and may not be allowed back to Bayville. And let's be honest. It is REAL hard not to see similarities to real life historical moments. And we are here for it.

All the way back in 1989, a pilot was created for what could have been the first full X-Men animated series. In another universe, this series with Kitty Pryde as the eyes of the audience and an Australian Wolverine succeeded and shaped Marvel cartoons and cinema for the next three decades. But, as listeners of this show know, that wasn't the case.

Cyclops and Rogue find themselves investigating an "Angel" who has been spotted in Manhattan while the other students are traveling home for winter break.

As with CIWFM tradition, Rod is in the lead of a Storm episode with this one sharing a different perspective about Ororo's youth and her relationship with one of the tribes before coming to America. Some of the classic Ororo traits get explored like her claustrophobia while others like importance of her powers get a deeper dive. With this version of Storm having her nephew Evan at the Institute with her, we also get to check on her parenting style too and what it's like to disappoint the Wind Rider.

Sometimes the most dangerous enemy of the X-Men (or at least the Summers family now on multiple occasions) is the weather.

Despite being tricked by a few titles last season, this one delivers what we expect as Hank McCoy gets his formal introduction to the X-Men. While inspired by aspects of the character from the comics, we see a less than helpful Xavier leading Hank to take matters into his own hands and putting students at risk.

Fun and Games shows what happens at the Institute when the three adults are gone and a bunch of young mutants are left to their own devices. With Xavier off to see what's wrong with the prison holding his brother the Juggernaut, the students throw a bash that definitely violates the rules and puts everyone there at risk.

In an episode that could never work today in an age of IG Live and Facetime, Season 2 kicks off by asking "What can the X-Men do if someone decides to open up Pandora's Box and reveal mutants to the world?" Kicking off with the introduction of a bunch of new students, we also see what happens to the Brotherhood without any sort of leader guiding them. With the leash off, Lance and crew decide to let the cat out of the bag and potentially bring a lot of grief to Scott, Kitty and the rest of the X-Men.

As Rod would like JC to say, things really heat up here as Magneto's full plan is revealed and the mutants who got left behind need to figure out where everyone is and save the day. We also see the ill effects of performance enhancing procedures. Definitely defining their own path compared to existing stories, we wrap up Season 1 of X-Men: Evolution with a bang.
