X-Men \u201997<\/a> ended its first season by blowing the whole board apart. The team was split across different eras, Asteroid M was gone, Apocalypse (Ross Marquand) was looming, and Marvel left fans with the kind of finale that practically demanded a quick follow-up. That\u2019s a big reason these new images matter. Even without a full trailer or exact release date yet, Marvel has finally given fans a real first look<\/a> at what comes next.<\/p>\n

Newly surfaced officially licensed promo art for X-Men \u201997 Season 2 via an Amazon listing<\/a> has revealed the clearest look yet at the next chapter of Marvel Animation\u2019s hit revival. The posters, which appeared through a licensed retail listing, bring back the core team from Season 1 while also confirming the presence of one major new player: Polaris. That\u2019s the detail fans are zeroing in on, and for good reason. As Magneto\u2019s (Matthew Waterson) daughter and one of Marvel\u2019s most popular mutant characters, her arrival could have a huge impact on where the series goes next<\/a>. The artwork also keeps the spotlight on the main names viewers would expect, including Cyclops (Ray Chase), Jean Grey (Jennifer Hale), Wolverine (Cal Dodd), Storm (Alison Sealy-Smith), and more.<\/a><\/p>\n

Season 1 ended with part of the team stranded in Ancient Egypt in 3000 B.C., where they encountered a young En Sabah Nur (AKA Apocalypse), while others were sent to a dystopian future in 3960 A.D. Marvel hasn\u2019t released a full plot synopsis for Season 2 yet, but the finale made it pretty obvious that time displacement, Apocalypse, and the fallout from Asteroid M<\/a> are going to drive the next batch of episodes.<\/p>\n

How Good Is ‘X-Men ’97’?<\/p>\n

Ross Bonaime’s<\/a> review<\/a> for Collider stated that X-Men \u201997 does exactly what a revival should do. It keeps everything that made X-Men: The Animated Series<\/a> so special, but improves it in ways the original show could not. The result is a continuation that feels respectful, exciting, and surprisingly emotional.<\/p>\n

“Since 2000, there have been thirteen X-Men movies<\/a>, be it prequels<\/a>, individual character spin-offs,<\/a> or entire reboots<\/a>, and none of them have quite been able to capture this team quite like The Animated Series. But X-Men \u201997 takes what worked so well in that first series and develops it into one of the greatest X-Men projects so far, quite possibly the best animated series to come from Marvel. It took nearly three decades to return to this world, but X-Men \u201997 makes the wait well worth it.”<\/p>\n

X-Men ’97 Season 1 is streaming now on Disney+. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.<\/p>\n
