Former X-Man Polaris returns to Xavier’s mansion just as a new threat emerges on the campus.
Take a look at all images released from the episode below:
In our four star review of the episode Michael said “Some might argue this is a slightly filler episode, but I’d say it’s saved by a magnetic (yes, I went there) Polaris showcase and some genuinely gutting Charles material. With such a small number of episodes in a season, I can see the critique, and I’d prefer the show not waste precious time. That said, X-Men ’97 continues to be a testament to the power of animation. It’s so ambitious with what it’s trying to achieve, you can’t help but be impressed. Season 2 continues to deliver against its lofty expectations, and I am seated and ready for everything it is about to throw our way.”
