You know who Maddy and Ryan forgot about? Omega Red. The communist tentacle cyborg has returned to remind us that people used to spend a lot of time thinking about Soviet Union submarines armed with nuclear weapons. The prospect of nuclear war is still scary even now, but this episode isn't. Omega Red and Wolverine tie each other up in bondage, and in the background, Storm and Rogue have to do all the work. Beast recites poetry as usual, and Professor X tells everybody that if they have to die to save the world, that's fine with him. Just another episode of X-Men: The Animated Series!
