X-Men Cartoon on Fox
Just posted about this in the Casual and felt like making a thread on it in here
![]() I remember as soon as I saw the 1st episode of Season 1, Morph was my favorite right away. And then what happens in the next episode? He gets fricken killed. WTF? Way to bring me down as I start my Saturday morning as an eleven or so year old kid. I couldn't believe it, when Jean said he didn't make it. I had never watched a cartoon before that where one of the good guys dies off like that. Of course he comes back though ![]() ![]() Ok, Rambling on here. So what were some of your memories of the show? Good or Bad Last edited by Loose Cannon; 08-31-2004 at 09:29 PM. |

Great show. Along with the 90s Spiderman and Batman. Batman just started coming out on DVD so now all I need is Xmen and Spidey.

And what was everyone's Fav. Episode or Saga?
Mine was the two Part "Reunion" episodes when Sinister captures like all the X-MEN (minus Wolverine) Prof X and Magneto. Then Wolverine comes in as Sinister's about to complete whatever he was doing and gets the X-Men unlocked and gets them back their powers. Then the X-Men just completely murder Sinister and his goons. Great Line from Gambit here. Right after he gets unlocked and gets his power back, he just walks up to this one dude all pissed and shit and goes "The name is Gambit...Remember it." BOOM He flings a couple of cards and kills the dude. Nice. Last edited by Loose Cannon; 09-01-2004 at 11:34 AM. |

Yeah, the Sinister saga sweet.
I also liked the whole Phalanx (sp?) episode arc. They had a ton of characters like X-Factor's Quicksilver and Forge and Havok. Plus Magneto and Sinister both helped the X-Men in that one. I think Bishop and Cable were in it too. Towards the end of the show I think that aired. |

^^Yep, that shit was great. See, that's exactly why I loved the show because you had so many characters just appearing in episodes. Yeah, Sinister was actually a good guy in that episode.

Haha yeah I used to watch that all the time. It was on some channel @ 9pm or something. Perect for us older 'kids'.
![]() It was like wrestling, you watched it and didn't tell anybody, but then when someone found out you watched it or vice-versa, you'd get all excited and talk about it. |

I've got some of the last episodes downloaded somewhere, the one I watched (Rogue went to give support to some southern kid who'd developed mutant abilities) was terrible, completely dire compared to the earlier stuff.
Personally I liked the first eps with Juggernaut and Omega Red ![]() ![]() |

Yeah I hated the ones that just focused on one person. Like I remember one where Storm was in Africa or something and there was some kid that could run fast, but he was possesed by the Shadow King. Ugh, so boring.
Plus, I've always hated Storm. |

Same here with Storm. That "power of" speech she did whenever she used her powers got on my nerves. As for fav. episodes, I liked the 2-Part "Sanctuary," Where Magneto invited all mutants to Asteroid M, the 4-Part "Beyond Good and Evil," where Apocalypse kidnapped all mutant psychics in order to break the balance of good and evil, and "Cold Comfort," which featured my all-time favorite mutant, Bobby "Iceman" Drake, looking for his girlfriend, Lorna "Polaris" Dane. He butted heads with Xavier, Cyclops, and Wolverine, but his friendship with Beast remained, and Jubilee had a crush on him. This episode also guest-starred X-Factor and Forge. |

And whomever mentioned Beyond Good and Evil. Oh man, that ruled all as well. So many different characters in that 4 part episodes. (Cable, Bishop, Archangel, Sabertooth, Magneto, Psylocke etc... ) I think even Spiderman made a real quick appearence. Remember Magneto and Mystique turned good in Part 4 and started helping the X-men. Hot Shit. I think the best bad guy was Apocalypse. He dominated the good guys a lot of the time. |

I liked it a lot. Especially the first season. The whole Morph-dying thing was almost unheard of, and it made you feel for the characters right away.

Good cartoon but they butchered just about every story arc that they used from the comics. Days of Future Past especially.

My favorite Saga of all time on that show was the one where Apocalypse had ever psychic abducted, it was pretty sweet cause you never knew who was showing up next. I'll never forget the part where Wolverine and Sabre-Tooth were in the middle of a fight and outta nowhere Magneto appeared and finished the job that Sabre-Tooth and Mystique were in the middle of (kidnapping Psylocke).

Speaking of Morlocks... (I understand that she wasn't part of the TV show, but I have to ask.) what does everyone think about Marrow? Personally I thought she was awesome. Way cooler than Gambit. Worthy of making it into one of the movies to fight Wolverine.

I watched it so much it pissed off my parents. When they started re-airing them when I was in college, oh, you know I was there.
Favorites: The Beyond Good and Evil saga cause let's face it, Apocalypse is the s>hit and it was a sweet story. Anything with Gambit. The Phoenix Saga One Man's Worth 2 part series cause that was the first time they dared venturing a little bit into the Age of Apocalypse storyline in the comic books. |

The Phoenix Saga
Or Apocolypse and The Four Horseman Angel (or Archangel) is one of my favourite characters and I liked teh battle between good and evil within his head. Oh and Gambit does and always will rule. |

I will give them credit though for making Cyclops and Jean Gray as boring and cardboardish in the cartoon as they are in the comics. Especially Cyke.

oh god, Evolution was shit when it started. There was really nothing happening. It was if I was watching one of those teen drama's on the WB. Then when Magneto brought in Pyro, Collosus (sp) and Gambit, the show picked up. Then the whole 4 Horsemen deal was great, even though that was an odd group of Horsemen.

What I liked about Evolution is that it did it's own thing, it took the characters and made it's own universe mostly independant from the comics. The Fox cartoon took COmic Book storylines and fucked them up 6 ways from Sunday. It's a good cartoon but a terrible adaptation.
