Yes, Nightcrawler fights with three swords. It’s awesome.

The relationship between Cable, Jean and Scott is complicated in the comics and in this episode as well.

I can’t tell you all the cameos I saw in this episode. Dr. Doom. Baron Zemo. Omega Red. Spider-man. There was a lot.

The show is very smartly written, discussing modern issues that we are dealing with in real life.

We’re coming closer and closer to the season finale. We finally know who the Big Bad is. Captain America shows up? Rogue shows off? And Cable shows up. Just another day with our dysfunctional mutant family on this episode of Super Sideshow podcast.

Bastion is complicated. Basically, he’s the merging of Nimrod, a super sentinel from the future, and Mother Mold, a sentinel that gives birth to other sentinels. Hey, you asked!

Rogue got her powers from Carol Danvers, by the way.

And Rogue and Nightcrawler are brother and sister. Kind of. And Mystique is their mother. Sort of.

Is this all setting up for Avengers vs. X-men? I hope so!

After the amazing X-Men '97 episode last week, this one wasn’t as insane, but we get great character development for Storm and the re-introduction of Professor X! What will his return mean for the X-Men? Find out in this episode of the Super SideShow podcast!

Yes, Storm is claustrophobic, which this episode did a good job of highlighting. 

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Ororo_Munroe_(Earth-616)



The Adversary is from the comics! 

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Adversary_(Earth-616)



Looks like we are going to get Charles Xavier back! 

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Charles_Xavier_(Earth-616)



The Shi’ar and the Kree were a big part of this episode, and contributed more to the history of the Marvel universe. Nice that this show is showing all angles from the comics, especially the Cosmic ones. 

https://www.cbr.com/marvel-comics-largest-empires/ 



From the title montage, we got some hints that Nimrod could be coming, which will be real bad for the X-men. 

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Nimrod_(Earth-811)



The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy is Sagittarius A*. It deserves a better name.

Julia Garner is going to be the new Silver Surfer in the new Fantastic Four movie. Lots of people are assuming Garner will play Shella Bal, but it could be more complex, or more simple, than that.

Goblin Queen?! This has to do with an old X-men story when the Hellfire Club tried to brainwash Jean Grey (or was it Madelyne Pryor?)

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Madelyne_Pryor_(Earth-616)



Mister Sinister! He’s a whole thing, and loves to clone! Some ties to Apocalypse and the House of X story line here. 

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Nathaniel_Essex_(Mister_Sinister)_(Earth-616)



Why does Bishop have an M on the side of his face? Bishop was marked in the future, to signify that he’s a mutant.
