The MRD have begun raiding locations and capturing mutants where they live and with Magneto turning his back on Quicksilver, the X-Men find themselves allied with the Brotherhood as they take on Trask's Sentinel plant.
Cyclops is Waiting for Me is our now bi-weekly podcast series where we are going back and watching EVERY-SINGLE-X-MEN-ANIMATED-EPISODE we can find. This podcast started with the original 1992 X-Men: The Animated Series building up to the release of X-Men ‘97. Along the way we’ve completed X-Men: Evolution and launched our companion interview show The Xavier Files!

Since season 2 of X-Men ‘97 isn’t announced yet for 2025, we are dedicating this year to all of Wolverine & The X-Men.

This one-off episode brings back a character who never made their way into X-Men: Evolution, the Silver Samurai. Giving another glimpse into the past of this version of Wolverine, Logan's love life causes some issues for the team (to say the least).

Another episode dedicated to future Xavier with wild hound-style sentinels and more trauma caused by Magneto's parenting? LFG!

Everyone's non-problematic TV exec who is actually the entire problem. Coming from deep within the reality era, this 2009 take on Mojo is one of this grossest incarnations yet with the Wolverine and The X-Men team really leaning in while he brings Nightcrawler, Scarlet Witch and a "Special Guest" into the mix.

After a war seemingly kicked off, Wolverine gets a call that sends him back up to Canada and dives back into the Weapon X program. JC and Rod chat about this take on Weapon X with some new members revealed as well as the WatX intro of Evolution's biggest contribution to X-Men lore.

Maybe because we didn't have much experience with it prior but JC and Rod didn't expect a series so filled with callbacks to earlier episodes and solid payoffs. At the halfway mark of the season/series, Magneto makes his big move and we get some awesome character moments and fight scenes with basically everyone. Totally understandable why this is one of the top rated episodes of the series.

Unhinged Cyclops along with the introduction of Mister Sinister, despite a cringeworthy use of the capital X in the title this episode has what we love about X-Men. Oh, and that voice of Sinister, definitely wasn't expecting that!Coincidentally, right before we recorded this JC got to meet the voice of Cyclops, Nolan North!

Per X-Men animation tradition, Wolverine needs some memory loss tied to flashbacks and a trip to Canada where he crosses paths with an old teammate and a fight breaks out. Unfortunately, this episode counters the (spoiler-y) director's canon we were following about Sabretooth being offed in Hulk vs. Wolverine being in this same timeline. But on the plus side, more Department H and, more importantly, we get a solid design on Sabretooth.
