X-Men ‘97 X-Men ‘97 News and Discussion Thread (TAG SPOILERS!!!!)

Shard isn't an essential character.

Bishop being an regular addition to the team is nice. But I also wish they added another female to the team (preferably Psylocke).

 

[squeekness]

I loved Wild Child's crush on Shard in the comics.

 

[Silvermoth]

People are inevitably going to be disappointed that it’s too nostalgic or not nostalgic enough but I hope everyone remembers to have fun and love the characters

Except didn't Shard and Bishop both return to the 1990s with the X-Men? I assume that's why Bishop is on the team now. So what happened to Shard?

 

[psylockolussus]

I don't really remember what happened to Bishop in the show. So I'm curious if there's an eXplanation why he's suddenly living with the X-Men. Aside from Bishop, these Mutants would be great additions as regulars

Iceman
Colossus
Psylocke
Nightcrawler
Angel/Archangel

Especially if they want to keep that 90s X-Men vibes.

Already ruining one storyline. That really doesn't need to be adapted. Removing Maddie just pisses me off.

Nightcrawler wasn't a really in the X books in the 90s....

Quasi-related

He helped the telepaths beat Apocalypse in the Nexus. Presumably, he was brought back to the 1990s from the Nexus. We never saw what happened to him after that.

I'm cautious if they are going to have an intro like Tas, or if they removed it, or if they just pasted the original intro with no changes.

I feel like if they're reviving a cartoon series known for its intro and that instrumental music. Having an intro is a must, but it also needs to be updated.

My guess is they will use the same music but have an updated intro that evokes the original but with changes, since we have an updated cast of characters.

They could fill a new intro with nothing but references to the original series, and it would easily be as dense and varied as the original

Shard was in X-Factor, iirc.

 

[Sithborg]

I do not see them departing with the new western standard of mayber 30 secs for intro, and half of that is going to be the stupid Marvel Studios bit.

 

[Zant]

Hope they stick with characters/storylines created up till the 90s

Hope the lame Gala stuff , Dust and other newer mutants stay as easter eggs. They have to comit to the era....a character like X 23 will feel out of place here, unless she time traveled from the future to the 90s

 

[Lily Adler]

Idk guys maybe we should breakup Gambit and Rogue.

 

[squeekness]

Yes she was. That's where Wild Child had his crush on her.

Nothing would please me more.

 

[BoredGuy]

Pssh
Gambit+Rogue > Cyclops+Jean

When did that happen?

 

[TheVileOne]

Yes she was. That's where Wild Child had his crush on her.

When did this happen in the animated series?

 

[squeekness]

Sorry. I meant the X-Factor comics.

 

[TheVileOne]

I'm asking about Shard's whereabouts after we lost saw her in the Animated Series along with Bishop joining the team.
