Oh boy talk about your episode's with a history. No Mutant is an Island is a troubled episode of X-Men: The Animated Series infamous for it's let's say.... unique animation style haha and it's delayed 2 year release date which put it's completely out of sync with the rest of the season but we're reviewing it in original script order for all of you to enjoy. Cyclops finds himself outta the X-Men having lost faith in losing Jean to the Phoenix.What's really neat about this episode is that it's...

"Hahahahaha...ahh hehe hahahaha -- You foolish fools; your foolishness amuses me." Intergalactic philsopher - D'Ken. What a crazy episode and the classic finale of The Phoenix Saga. With the M'Kraan Crystal fractured D'Ken absorbs the power and drags everything inside. He goes full Freddy Krueger, Thanos, in this absolute classic of X-Men: The Animated series.PLUS Marvel Movie News we discuss Spider-Man: Not Far From Home/European Vaction/Euro Trip. Also my tiny and berated review of Aquaman...

The Starjammers my new favourite space team. You know you're getting old when you call something the wrong name and your mate doesn't even notice -- I musta called them the Spacejammers 5 times during the pod and Brooksey never said s**t haha either way we both feel this episode is the first one to start feeling like "The Phoenix Saga" and there's only one left. Dunno why, must be because we're finally in space and Phoenix is doing stuff.Bit late but we discuss the 2 big trailer drops --...

Cry of the Banshee? He's barely in it? But hey I'm only allowed to title my own episodes. Got my favourite recurring character in this episode of the podcast CROWTHER. That's right he's back to talk Juggernaut -- we touch on the infamous "I'm the Juggernaut bitch" internet video and in Marvel Movie News we talk Venom's record shaking opening gross in China!- Bender

IT BEGINS! Phoenix saga kicking it off with everyone's favourite S&M Daredevil -- Erik The Red? What was 4 issues in the comics the animated series thankfully condenses it in one tight fit episode. Brooksey and I break it down along with tally time and our callback segment "What sort of alcoholic drinks do the X-Men order"PLUS we finally reveal our favourite episodes of each season thus far.- Bender

Ooo Yeah; The Reavers! Aussie Mercs in an underrated episode of X-Men: The Animated Series. Kicking of season 3 with a winner here in Out of the Past Part 1. I confused it with part 2 on the last podcast and was plesantly surprised at how awesome this was. New animation studio and a more rich and high contrast colour palette makes for a really visually distinct style of animated action here. Really ambitious action scenes too. Breakdown, X-Quiz, Tally Time, Claw Draw and Marvel Movie News...

The Boys are back in town whic means the shows back and we've got Reunion Part 2. The thrilling conclusion to the Savage Land saga. Wrapping up all things Mutates and Nasty Boyz; talking He-Man and Battlecat... sorry Kazaar and Zabu and Kazaar's awful plans and body odour.

Reunion Part 1 -- Big bounce back from the terror of Mojovision. We're back in the Savage Land and we're staying there for a little longer now. Also a SURPRISE location for Wolverine, Cyclops and Jean in their hunt for Morph. Also a debut of He-Man... I mean Kazar and his noble stead Zabu. The Nasty Boys return as we discuss what we want from our Nasty Boys spin-off as well as breaking down the rest of the episode.- Bender

Did I say the last episode was wacky? Well Beauty and The Beast has nothing on this cluster: Mojovision! What were they on and do they have any left to share? This is Beetlejuice, Running Man, Grandmaster and Jabba the Hutt all rolled into one, with more Marvel cameos and TV show spoofs where everyone dies. Sounds crazy? It is, really bloody crazy. That's why Brooksey and I recruited one of our good mates from primary school: Crowtherl to help us burndown the Mojoverse and bury the ashes. (I...

We're back with Beauty and Beast. No more X-Men: Origins stories unfortunately. Would've loved to have seen a Beast Orgins over this little sad love story about descrimination, love and loss -- is this a kids cartoon or what? Either way we're breaking it down, making tallies and giving you our thoughts on this weird little episode. ALSO be sure to check out our Marvel Movie News and thoughts on Avengers in our other podcast.

INFINITY WAR! We have thoughts on it too vast to fit into the regular podcast so this is Marvel Movie News and Avenger Infinity War MINI Review. What we liked and what I didn't (brooksey didn't not like anything -- loved it) Tune and to find out what I thought was missing.- Bender

X-Men Origins: Rogue or The Fall of Ms Marvel. Regardless of who's side you take this is one of the most tragic stories of X-Men: The Animated Series so far. I don't see anything else coming close to being this side. Appart from being a demise of a superhero story like the death of Superman or Batman Breaks His Back; A Rogue's Tale is also a super creepy story of possession with Rogue being tormented by hallucinations and voices in her head. Just what Saturday morning cartoons should be...

We're back!!! After a few weeks off we return with Time Fugitives Part 2; the 2nd installment of our favourite time travellers Bishop and Cable and we definitely get an epic showdown between the two. The action is relentless, wall to wall thrills and rapid fire story telling. This is one of the fastest episodes to date so listen to us break it down, tally it up and rate this bad boy. PLUS we give you our thoughts on Black Panther and Infinity War in our new segment Marvel Movie News.- Bender

Gotta get back time Huey Lewis and The News style. It's Bishop, it's Cable, it's Terminator 2: Judgemen Day and Back To The Future.... well a few references to it anyway. The spiritual follow up to the Days of Future Past episodes whether we think it tops it or not you'll have to tune in and find out. Being that Bishop and Cable are on board is always gonna win a few bonus points with us, especially with Bishop's Harmonica heavy theme music. We got breakdown, tally time with a BRAND NEW name...

Tieves and Tassins, talking cajun talk in this episode of the podcast. X-Ternally Yours or X-Men Origins: Gambit is a really fun episode of X-Men: The Animated Series. We get a snapshot of Gambit's past where he deals with a clingy ex-fiancee, 300 year old gang war between the Thieves and the Assassins and their worship of a strange tithe seeking deity called the external. The lore established here is really quite interesting and it's a shame we didn't get to delve into more, unfortunately we...

We're back for 2018 and we got X-Men Origins: Wolverine or Repo Man depending on your preference. Talk Alpha Flight, the canadian Avengers and Vindicator's broken bromance with Wolverine. Twas interesting revisiting this ep as this was the first of many times where Wolverine's adamantium origins were referenced in the series. We got the usual breakdown, x-quiz and tally time with  RECORD BREAKING Claw Draw. ALSO in light of the release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi I kept a short bit about our...

A very special episode of the podcast today because we've got our first GUEST stars. If you didn't know Brooksey and I have younger simblings and they're coming on board to chat about Red Dawn. Kim and Mike share their thoughts on first watching X-Men whilst also breaking down Omega Red, russian accents, Storms pre-fight poetry and one-off stories vs main plot stories. Omega Red was always a favourite of mine and as I found out on this episode I was alone on this one. The podcast ran a little...

Whatever it takes for Brooksey to sit through this episode. He wasn't have a ton of fun watching Mjnari being chased by The Shadow King bu for me it was a nostalgia episode I used to watch a fair bit. On IMDB and the rest of the internet this episode is considered to be sub-par in comparison to the rest; whether that's true or not you'll have to listen and find out. We got X-Quiz, Breakdown and Tally Time as usual but we also discuss the Astral Plane and a HUGE missed opportunity...

Till Death Do Us Part Part 2 (still fun to say without a pause) We got a full blast of Mr Sinister doing sinster stuff as well as my new favourites The Nasty Boys! Morph's still up to no good and we get to see how he is the way he is with the whole Smeagol/Gollum, Rogues nod to Wonder Woman and Cyclops not making any sense because he's Booty Blinded by his one-eyed cyclops. Got the breakdown and claw draw PLUS a very special mailbag and shout out; LENORE ZANN the voice of Rogue dropped us a...

Till Death Do Us Part Part 1 (It's fun to say without the pause) New season which means a new disc in Brooksey's dvd box set of X-Men: The Animated Series. Morph's back and is wreacking havoc on the X-Men or Extreme Trolling, whatever you prefer. We're introduced to the FOH, talk about Wolverines undying obsession with Jean, Gambit's undying obsession to pash off with Rogue and what's really on Professor XXX's private video line. We also mention a controversial censorship cut made for the dvd...

The Final Decision and the final episode of season 1 of X-Men: The Animated Series. Going out with a bang with mass sentinel destruction in an action packed finale. I love me some sentinels and if you do too, this was a great send off. Hitting a personal milestone here at Generation X-Men because we're already ONE season down. With only 4 to go things seem to be moving crazy fast. Got the usual breakdown, tally time and clawdraw BUT we have a great mailbag segment in which Brooksey answers...

Days of Future Past Part 2; as good as part 1? Not really, but we're gonna talk about it any. The big follow up to one of our favourite episodes ever and the thrilling finale of the first Bishop time travel story. We talk about another spin off "The Tomfoolery of Bishop and Wolverine" a buddy comedy about an uncanny X-Odd Couple; I personally think it would be hilarious. Let's make it happen. Also got the usual X-Quiz, Breakdown and tally time - Bender
