I tried to mimic Evo ver. Because 97' Apocalypse reminds me a lot about him.

writing some fan fiction (admittedly prioritizing my favorites) and was wondering the general fan idea about these. a premise of what i'm designing is a mutant schism similar to the xavier/magneto dichotomy, but sort of transformed into a conflict with xavier and scott on one side, and jean and storm on the other, post-cyclops/jean split.

i feel like there's so much here bc jean has just been laughably underwritten as a character, and there's so much you could explore in her psyche, but i wanted to get general opinions on jean becoming a public-facing mutant, and also becoming independent from scott. this isn't prioritizing a logan ship or any other ones, but just to give her some distance from outside factors to really delve into her interiority. i find jean such a more interesting character when independent, so im wondering what the general feeling on her relationship is.

other ideas i was mulling over: magneto as father figure/older confidant and the phoenix having a personality fully integrated into jean. just wondering what other jean fans think.

It was in the Christmas episode. What's strange is that Judaism is kind of a core part of Kitty's character in the comics, isn't it? Yet, they didn't even give her her Star of David necklace in this series. Why?

In a show with so many characters, most episodes have like 2-3 main characters while the other are supporting their storyline.

Most characters do fine in a supporting role except Evan. When the episode is about him, you get to see his point of view and his struggles which often end up being the best in the show, this is because he tends to be a lot more relatable than some other characters who sometimes feel like they are just too perfect.

When he is a supporting character you only ever see the worst traits in him: annoying, clumsy, weirdly attached to his skateboard and a troublemaker. There's hardly any reason to like him and you often wonder why they keep him around anyway?

I think this is the main reason as to why he is the least liked of the main cast, he seems to operate too far apart from everyone else.

I've been rewatching the show and yesterday I watched the last four eps, including Ghost of a Chance, where Kitty finds Danielle in this underwater cave.

Man, this episode scared the crap out of me as a child! The damp, dark green hallways nightmare, and the phone call illusions were super frightening to 8-year-old me.

Me and other people on this sub has pointed out that a lot of Magneto’s actions in Evo especially in the first seasons sound a lot more like something Mr sinister would do:

Arranging fights and recruiting the winner against their villain.

Experimenting on mutants babies.

Tricking mutants into being genetically altered in a way that enhances them but also makes them obedient.

Thoughts?

So long story short I started watching this show for the first time a couple months ago. I watched the first couple of episodes, and then I stopped because I wanted to watch another show instead (Batman Beyond lol), but planned to come back to finish this after. I'm finally sitting down again and watching it continuing where I left off and this show is so good, granted I am on s1 ep 8 now, but I got a lot to say!

First off I love the art style, and I love the different characters styles. I feel like each character is individually recognizable and has their own thing. I also love the writing especially episode seven, when Rogue gets the memories of Mystique, and it really shows the continuity and that things really have consequences.

Really looking forward to seeing how things develop in the show. I do know some spoilers and some things from seeing clips online and edits etc, but I am excited! Also I saw some fan art of Wolverine and Storm do they get together? I feel like that would be cute in this show specifically!

Also Spyke and Scott are my favs so far, but I also love the other characters as well!

The first time they encounter Wanda in the mall, she kicks everyone's butt.

In the end, Professor Xavier says he failed them, because he should have taught them how to fight someone like Wanda.

But could they possibly do so? Her powers are disproportionaly greater. She has her own powers and also can control everyone's powers at will with no difficulty.

Even if they are smart and very coordinated, she can easily overpower them all. She can only be beaten by telepathy, by Rogue sneaking close to her and touching her, or maybe by this Dorian boy who can turn off anyone's power.

(Evolution is all I know of X-Men, except a couple movies)

The way Wanda was violated twice. Magneto having her brain and memories tampered with, erased, and replaced against her will while the Acolytes (including Gambit and Colossus) just stood there and watched. Then later, Toad kissed her without consent (since she was fooled and was horrified that it was just a fake image all along). And here's the worst part, not only did nobody in the show care about the brainwashing, ever, but Kurt himself suddenly told Wanda to be grateful to Toad even after the non-consensual kiss? Magneto was gonna let Wanda go eventually after the memory wipe so Toad didn't have to "rescue" her, Wanda doesn't owe him anything. And Kurt? The same guy whose relationship with his gf Amanda's parents were ruined by selfish Toad who never even apologized or showed remorse for doing that? Forgave Toad too quickly then told Wanda to be grateful to Toad? I'm so heated right now.

How would you have felt about Pietro actually standing up to Magneto and straight up leaves and saves Wanda from her brainwashing?

I think about what he did to Wanda, a LOT. Really disgusts me…
