X-Men ‘97 is an upcoming animated show from Disney, reviving the classic 1990’s animated series, even picking up where the show left off when it was cancelled in 1997. It reunites some of the original cast, including Cal Dodd as Wolverine, Lenore Zann as Rogue and George Buza as Beast.

There’s a lot going on with the X-Men right now. Not only were they teased in the recently released MCU outing The Marvels, but many think they could be the key to rebooting the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In the comic book world, The X-Men are currently running through two major storyline - The Fall of the House of X and The Rise of the House of X.

Variant covers are quite the thing at Marvel, as we've already seen a preview for the Wolverine variant covers that will release to celebrate 50 years of the hairy mutant, as well as new costumes released for the launch of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PS5.
