Back on the Marvel Anime train, JC and Rod hop in on Wolverine which is done by the same studio as our previously covered Marvel's X-Men. For some reason, this one follows the same design as Marvel's Iron Man with a very skinny Logan voiced by Peter Petrelli from Heroes. This is our first time watching so no spoilers please.

We're excited to be joined by Nikole Zivalich (host of PBS's Won't You Be My Gamer?) and Matt Raub (comedian) for our first ever X-Draft! They joined JC and Rod as everyone tried to put together the most entertaining mutant team to take on a surprise encounter. This episode, they got the Magneto battle from 1963's X-Men #1 !

Make sure to vote in the comments or on our socials who you think put together a winning combo. And, we wouldn't take this too seriously.

No clever intro. This is the comic that Apocalypse bangs. What else do you need to know?

As quickly as it came, Season 2 of X-Men '97 ended with lot of our favorite "big ole' fight" scenes as the X-Men defend Gambit from both X-Force and X-Factor. We say it a lot here but we mean it, we can't believe it is already over. Share your thoughts with us as we discuss the episode, the season as a whole and mentally prep ourselves for the wait for season 3. Oh, and with regard to Val Cooper, just remember that JC WAS RIGHT.
