Whelp, we figured the showdown between Professor X and Magneto would be bad, but not THIS BAD! The penultimate episode of X-Men ’97 was the craziest one yet. Will the show be able to stick the landing next week? Find out what we think on this episode of the Super Sideshow podcast!

Magneto rips out Wolverine’s adamantium, and it was almost exactly like it happened in the comics.

All this takes place in the Fatal Attractions story line, back in 1993.

We’re sort of over Mr. Sinister.

Do you want to see Wolverine and Nightcrawler slash up a bunch of Prime Sentinels? How about Cable, Jean Grey, and Cyclops jump out a plane in a Porsche and then plow through a mountain? What about social commentary about immigration and birth rates? We got that all here and more in this episode of the Super Sideshow podcast! Plus Jay uses the wrong microphone for recording!

Yes, Nightcrawler fights with three swords. It’s awesome.

The relationship between Cable, Jean and Scott is complicated in the comics and in this episode as well.

I can’t tell you all the cameos I saw in this episode. Dr. Doom. Baron Zemo. Omega Red. Spider-man. There was a lot.
The show is very smartly written, discussing modern issues that we are dealing with in real life.

Bastion is complicated. Basically, he’s the merging of Nimrod, a super sentinel from the future, and Mother Mold, a sentinel that gives birth to other sentinels. Hey, you asked!

Rogue got her powers from Carol Danvers, by the way.

And Rogue and Nightcrawler are brother and sister. Kind of. And Mystique is their mother. Sort of.

Is this all setting up for Avengers vs. X-men? I hope so!

After the amazing X-Men '97 episode last week, this one wasn’t as insane, but we get great character development for Storm and the re-introduction of Professor X! What will his return mean for the X-Men? Find out in this episode of the Super SideShow podcast!

Yes, Storm is claustrophobic, which this episode did a good job of highlighting.
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Ororo_Munroe_(Earth-616)
The Adversary is from the comics!

Looks like we are going to get Charles Xavier back!

The Shi’ar and the Kree were a big part of this episode, and contributed more to the history of the Marvel universe. Nice that this show is showing all angles from the comics, especially the Cosmic ones.
https://www.cbr.com/marvel-comics-largest-empires/
From the title montage, we got some hints that Nimrod could be coming, which will be real bad for the X-men.

The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy is Sagittarius A*. It deserves a better name.
