by

As a long-time fan of the X-Men franchise, I must say that the announcement of new teams joining the cast in Season 2 of X-Men ’97 has me buzzing with excitement! Growing up with the original series and seeing it resurrected in such an incredible way, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgia mixed with anticipation.

The cartoon series X-Men ’97 proved to be a significant triumph for Marvel despite its challenges and alterations to the established comic book continuity. Remarkably similar to the original series in animation style, it boasted an engaging plot that sparked nostalgia in viewers who watched the first season.

The initial season was incredibly successful, with the controversy surrounding Beau DeMayo’s dismissal and accusations of inappropriate actions failing to diminish its popularity. It earned an Emmy nomination and is widely praised by both fans and critics as one of Disney’s standout Marvel productions during this era.

Absolutely, there’s good news for fans! Not only is another season in development, but the creators are also exploring possibilities for seasons three and a possible full-length animated film. While the second season is certain to introduce fresh aspects, recent confirmations hint at some exciting additions that should delight viewers!

The information we have comes from a Collider article that focuses on an X-Men ’97 Q&A that was held recently. Namely, after an X-Men ‘97 screening of the first season, ComicBook’s Jamie Jirak moderated a Q&A with executive producer Brad Winderbaum, supervising producer Jake Casterona, and director Emi/Emmett Yonemura. Numerous questions were asked, but one in particular caught our attention, as Winderbaum was asked about the new characters we are going to see in Season 2. Here is what he said:

In Marvel’s universe, there are multiple teams whose names start with “X” followed by a dash. Let me clarify for you – there are actually two more X-teams that appear in Season 2.

We’re eagerly awaiting to see how these new elements unfold in the series as it progresses!
