X-Men 1x07
Same, Sugah
The faces during that scene. The animation here is brilliant.
Not a fan of the portrayal of the new villain so far though

latest x-men 97 was great. can't work out if bastian's back story is simpler in this or the comics. i think a few mcu fans will be pleased they finally used doom

Much Simplier. His explanation in OZT storyline was famously vague and only got more cumbersone as it went on.
They streamlined/simplified Bastions origin for the better.
They’ve changed prime sentinels somewhat. Originally when activated they all transformed entirely into a standardized form and didn’t retained their individual appearance
Looks like their taking elements of E is for Extinction as well, and Fatal Attractions.
It's amazing how many story lines they're taking, combining and things don't feel rushed or haphazard. Everything feels perfectly placed for the story it's telling.

The only character I haven't really liked was Morph, mostly because his powers seem to be a handy way for the writers to get around problems. But then he gives Wolverine the absolute sass so it kind of redeems him.

Rpisode 9 of X-Men
Didn't love that though. So great action scenes but pedestrian off repeated story, that seems boring after some of the big swings earlier in the season.
Charles just comes as niave and simplistic given recent events. Charles vs Erik is just done by now
Trying to get OZT and Fatal Attractions into play is just rushed. Magento's actions this week don't even seem to address Bastion (beyond EMPing).he's forgotten him to go on a murder rampage. Asteriod m - a haven for mutants in the comics, has Rogue and Sunspot.
OZT in comes had a famously bad ending (they were winning conclusive victory after victory win then Shield stepped in and said "Actually not on US soil", basically)
I just wish there was an satisfying end (probably not based on comics) to Bastion/Genosha/Magneto was Right" without also trying to do Fatal Attactions.
