X Men ‘97 is the best TV show Marvel has ever made.

Live action, animated, Netflix, Disney+ all of it. X-Men ‘97 is as near perfect as a TV show can be. I was already a fan, but this show turned me into a super fan, and got me deep into the comics. Not many shows have that kind of power. I just finished my 3rd rewatch of the show and just had to get it out there, if you haven’t seen it yet or have just been putting it off for whatever reason, please go watch it.

Agreed

rubyschnees2025-11-21 20:07

wish people could understand the difference between "best" and "favorite"

Golbeza2025-11-21 20:09

I have seen every single Marvel television show and consider is the “best.” Opinions are subjective. Just because you don’t consider it the best thing they’ve made, doesn’t mean that I do? And tbh Daredevil might be my favorite, but that’s just because it’s had multiple seasons, once X-Men 97’s run is done it will probably be mine.

You kinda completely missed their point.

No like that guy was agreeing with you

crazyguyunderthedesk2025-11-21 20:45

I didn't think you understood the statement you were responding to. Now I'm even more convinced you didn't understand.

unconventional-doom2025-11-22 08:51

You clearly haven't seen Daredevil

Alleggsander2025-11-21 20:15

Best is an opinion that OP is completely in their right to have.

I happen to share this opinion as well.

nashty20042025-11-21 20:28

Nah it’s the best

urgasmic2025-11-22 08:16

yeah like, it's got a single season and a fired showrunner. let's relax.

brycifer6662025-11-21 20:09

I prefer Earth's Mightiest heroes but 97 is great

Golbeza2025-11-21 20:11

Funny I am just now watching this! Im really liking it so far, im only like 5 episodes in. I was a big fan of DC’s animated shows, especially BTAS and JL/JLU it kinda gives me those vibes.

Daicess2025-11-21 20:16

I liked the first season and the first half of the second season. It was sooo good. Second half of the second season felt rushed or something. I don't remember it too well, but something was off.

AloyAlphaprime20742025-11-21 20:12

I think some episodes of X-Men 97' were better than any other tv-show episode they've done. Specifically episode 5, *Remember It*. But as a whole? I think they've done better.

igby12025-11-22 23:47

Does that Episode 5 work on its own or helps to have watched the rest of the season to really enjoy E5?

AloyAlphaprime20742025-11-23 00:22

You could probably skip episode 4, but I'd recommend watching the whole show

koolaidkirby2025-11-23 14:08

Episodes 2 and 5 were the best imo.

Grayx_28872025-11-21 20:16

Well, it still isn't as good as X-Men: Evolution, Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, or the 2011 X-Men anime series. But as far as X-Men related media goes so far, I say it's a million times better than the vast majority of the 20th Century Fox X-Men movies, with the exception of X-Men: First Class (2011), Logan (2017) and the Deadpool trilogy. Legion and the Gifted are different in their own categories.

Golbeza2025-11-21 20:22

I wouldn’t put X men Evolution or EMH anywhere near 97, and I havent seen the 2011 anime, I’ll have to check it out. But I respect your opinion, everyone’s different. I also didn’t watch any of those older shows when they came out so i don’t have any nostalgia for them

Grayx_28872025-11-21 22:16

That's fine. But you should definitely check out the 1994 Fantastic Four animated series and the 1995 Incredible Hulk animated series. They are both very underrated.

Actual_Ad_66782025-11-22 08:32

Since you only saw 5 episodes of EMH I think you can't have a valid opinion on it just yet. I also would put EMH on top of anything animited Marvel has ever put out. X-Men '97 doesn't come close to that.

RihoSucks2025-11-21 20:19

You didnt mention fox era shows but I would put the first season of legion above x-men 97 but there isnt much more I can think of off the top of my head.

Golbeza2025-11-21 20:20

Point taken. I’ve only watched the first season of Legion, does it fall off after that?

RihoSucks2025-11-21 20:22

No i think its still good but I dont think its as tightly written as s1 was.

Wtygrrr2025-11-22 17:34

Yes, it falls off hard in the second half of season 2.

Nemesis_1712025-11-21 20:22

I agree. Love the show and have watched it 3 times now

Unlimited_Man2025-11-21 20:27

Loki

nashty20042025-11-21 20:28

Water is wet

Vashishth_322025-11-21 20:30

I personally feel daredevil, punisher S01 and Jessica Jones S01 were better. But hey, all shows are great

0LoveAnonymous02025-11-21 20:48

It’s a great show, but calling it Marvel’s best is subjective. It hit hard because it respects the original, delivers emotional stakes, and actually moves the story forward, which a lot of Marvel TV hasn’t done in years.

Golbeza2025-11-21 21:42

Yep totally subjective, just my opinion :)

marvelcomics222025-11-22 03:17

I prefer Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., but X-Men '97 is really good.

Golbeza2025-11-22 03:28

Im also working on Agents of SHIELD now, just got to the second season, so when I finish my opinion may be totally different. I put it off for so long, but I’m watching it and taking breaks to watch the MCU movies as they tie in and it’s been a great experience.

unconventional-doom2025-11-22 08:48

Animated is not really my thing, and I think Daredevil on Netflix has been the best show marvel has put out imho

Toshimoko292025-11-25 09:00

This is my issue, animation isn’t for me. It’s so visually boring compared to watching actual people on screen.

DavidZ28442025-11-22 09:53

lol the pedestal that people put animated shows on is just absolutely ridiculous, just because it’s animated doesn’t mean it’s the greatest thing ever made, and I’m tired of pretending that’s true

Troile2025-11-22 15:56

I'm tired of people pretending that it being animated means it can't be good.

DavidZ28442025-11-22 20:58

lol no one is ever pretending that, that’s literally the point of my comment and you know I’m right

Anyone who downvotes this further proves my point on how animation fans have their heads so far up their asses

ContrarionesMerchant2025-11-22 17:04

Insane that this is so downvoted it’s not even really close.

Wtygrrr2025-11-22 17:36

True. It’s not really even close to being the best.

ContrarionesMerchant2025-11-22 17:55

What’s better

Wtygrrr2025-11-22 18:49

Jessica Jones, Daredevil, Wandavision, Loki, Agatha, Punisher.

Midnite_Blank2025-11-23 01:09

Daredevil has an argument but those other shows were rather forgettable for me personally.

superkick2252025-11-22 17:31

No I’m giving that title to Daredevil.

Wtygrrr2025-11-22 17:32

Putting it ahead of season 1 of Jessica Jones is insane.

BerserkerRed2025-11-23 23:44

Season 1 of Jessica Jones doesn’t get enough credit. It’s legit good TV. David Tenant as Purple Man is probably one of the best villain performances. Like I feel it was very true to what a person who had to at power would probably end up doing.

IshyMoose2025-11-23 01:59

I would say most fun.

Dismal_View_51212025-11-23 02:00

X-men 97 is great, but have you seen Earth's Mightiest Heroes?

Abraham_Issus2025-11-23 11:37

Can’t be the best with weak ass villain.

The_Orgin2025-11-25 16:04

*Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has left the chat*

Golbeza2025-11-25 16:23

Def wouldn’t put AOS anywhere near 97, it’s a bit too corny

Space-Dern2025-11-26 03:53

ms marvel

Golbeza2025-11-26 05:36

That’s a wild take lol
