Fan Reviews Pour In Following the premiere of the first two episodes, fans took to social media to share their excitement and rave reviews about “X-Men ’97.” One fan on X, formerly known as Twitter, exclaimed, “X-Men 97 is already a banger. Every character has at least one incredible moment, but the biggest win is that it accomplished the one thing no adaptation ever has: it made Cyclops cool. (Insufferable, yes. But cool.)”
Another fan remarked, “This show is perfection, I wish Marvel would do more things like this. Magneto surprised me a lot in this scene, I thought he would end lives.” Yet another fan praised the authenticity of the animation, saying, “Okay #XMen97 is PERFECT. The animation is so authentically 90s, but enhanced. The dialogue is still corny but so classic. Me every time Storm talks.”
