[ Disney+"s X-Men Reboot Reviews: Critics Share Strong First Reactions ]
X-Men ‘97 Season 1 Episode List [img]http://i8.funpeer.com/5iCVLmV0ATJQ.png[/img]Marvel AnimationNew episodes of [i]X-Men "97[/i], Season 1 stream on Disney+ on Wednesdays starting at 12 a.m. PT/3 a.m. ET.
Episode 1: "To Me, My X-Men"[b]Airdate: March 20[/b]
As many viewers have already seen, the opening episode of the show highlights the re-emergence of [b]“new anti-mutant technology,”[/b] which fans learned connected back to the Sentinels:
[indent]“Cyclops races to find the source of new anti-mutant technology that threatens to upset mutant-human relations. His search leads them to an unexpected reunion with an old foe, even as the X-Men welcome a new addition to the team.”
[/indent]The episode"s title should also be familiar as it is a play on Cyclops’ classic catchphrase.
Episode 2: "Mutant Liberation Begins"[b]Airdate: March 20[/b]
The second episode focuses on the iconic villain Magneto as he stands trial for his crimes:
[indent]“When Magneto is forced by the UN to stand trial, a group of anti-mutant rioters test his resolve.”
[/indent]The show put Magneto’s character in an interesting spot: the former villain now leads the X-Men team thanks to Charles Xavier’s last will and testament.
Episode 3: "Fire Made Flesh"[b]Airdate: March 27[/b]
Episode 3 teases a visitor arriving at the mansion, one with[b] “a dangerous secret:”[/b]
[indent]“When a visitor arrives at the mansion with a dangerous secret that threatens Cyclops and Jean"s relationship, the team is propelled into a tragic confrontation with an immortal mad scientist.”
[/indent]Many fans have speculated that the [b]“fire”[/b] in the title is referring to the Phoenix Force, but details remain a mystery.
Episode 4: "Motendo/Lifedeath" (Part 1)[b]Airdate: April 3[/b]
The fourth installment, which is the first of two parts, will center on Jubilee as she is transported [b]“into a 16-bit video game:”[/b]
[indent]"On her birthday, a nostalgic Jubilee is forced to relive the X-Men"s greatest adventures when an entertainment system transports her into a 16-bit video game."
[/indent]The title holds two clues as to what the episode could be about. The “Motendo” seems like a cross between Mojo and Nintendo—could the ugly alternate entertainment dimension baddie come out to play? Then, the “Lifedeath” part could refer to a love story between Storm and Forge. Romance fans, get ready.
Episode 5: "Remember It"[b]Airdate: April 10[/b]
“Remember It,” Episode 5 of Season 1, continues the overarching storyline of Genosha joining the United Nations while also possibly[b] “airing the X-Men’s dirty laundry:”[/b]
[indent]"As Genosha prepares to join the UN, select members of the team head to the island nation to be honorees. Back at the mansion, a behind-the-scenes press event risks airing the X-Men"s dirty laundry."
[/indent]Episode 6: "Lifedeath" (Part 2)[b]Airdate: April 17[/b]
Episode 6 continues Storm’s (and presumably Forge’s) love story—provided it follows the storyline of the same name from the comics.
The tease for the installment is brief, but it paints a dire picture of Storm:
[indent]“Storm is forced to face her worst fears in order to free herself.”
[/indent]Episode 7: "Bright Eyes"[b]Airdate: April 24[/b]
“Bright Eyes” looks to be a Cyclops-centric episode, but there’s always the chance the title refers to something else.
Fans can expect the plot to revisit Bolivar Trask and his deadly mutant killing machines:
[indent]“Cyclops focuses the X-Men on finding Bolivar Trask. However, when the team locates the Sentinel inventor, they realize that they all have been played by a mastermind.”
[/indent]Episode 8: "Tolerance is Extinction" (Part 1)[b]Airdate: May 1[/b]
“Tolerance is Extinction” is the first of an epic three-part storyline for [i]X-Men ‘97[/i].
The only tease is that the team must [b]“unite to face a new threat.”[/b]
Episode 9: "Tolerance is Extinction" (Part 2)[b]Airdate: May 8[/b]
Episode 9 is part 2 of a trilogy in which [b]“the X-Men work to settle the score before it is too late.”[/b]
Episode 10: "Tolerance is Extinction" (Part 3)[b]Airdate: May 15[/b]
The final episode of [i]X-Men ‘97[/i] Season 1 sees[b] “the X-Men"s dream put to the test as mutant-human relations reach a tipping point.”[/b]
[i]X-Men "97[/i] is now streaming on Disney+.
