Marvel Versus Marvel

Rob and Will take an unexpected deep-dive into the smash-hit new Marvel animated series X-Men 97 and ask the question - is this the greatest X-Men project of all time? Should the MCU learn lessons from this cartoon show?! We take you behind the scenes on the making of this series, how and why a revival of the classic X-Men cartoon from the 90’s was needed, and what this series does BETTER than the X-Men movies! We’ll explore the history and trivia behind Magneto leading the X-Men, the relationship between Rogue and Gambit, just how overlooked Cyclops has been as a character and leader, the Sinister story of Jean Grey and her clone The Goblin Queen, and what the heck is going on with Morph!
