I have a lot of good memories watching TAS, but I have to admit that I slept hard on X-men Evolution. It's a solid show from the end of the 2nd season onward.

TAS stayed close to the comics, but there were certain things Evolution did better.
Cyclops was shown to be a real leader, and not a chump.
Nightcrawler and Kitty Pryde were given more focus. (I still maintain that Nightcrawler should have been a main character in TAS.)
Wolverine wasn't shoved in our faces 24/7 at the expense of everyone else.

I've never seen Wolverine and the X-men. The animation looks great, but I'm a little put off at the thought of Wolverine being pushed as the leader of Cyclops or Storm. That's like making Raphael the leader of the Ninja Turtles to me.
Logan is dope, but I get tired of the writers nerfing everyone just to only focus on him. I've also heard that Cyclops is depicted as a punk (yet again) just to make Wolverine look better. What are your thoughts? Is the show still worth watching?

Can't cosign on the fact that the Phoenix Saga on TAS was one of the best multi-part episode run in Television History.

But Season 2 of W&TXmen would've been lit if they really got to explore the AOA timeline. :wow:
Favorite Comic Book Arc/ storyline ever :whew:


aoa = the worst shyt in xmen history.

What was so bad about AoA? Everyone else here swears by that story from what I've seen.

Not arguing with you, since I haven't read it.
You've mentioned before that X-men in general fell off after Claremont and Jim Lee quit, so I'm just curious to why you're not a fan of AoA.

My biggest issue with Wolverine and the X-men is the same issue the franchise always has, which is dikkriding Wolverine at the expense of other characters. Now Wolverine is the leader of the team? :beli:


Wolverine has lead the X-Men before though so I don't see the big deal.

Wolverine and The X-Men was cool but X-Men Evolution is my favorite of the X-shows.

And regardless of when it aired I have always hated X-Men The Animated Series.
The animation was janky as fukk and all of the voice acting was horrific.
