To celebrate our 5th Anniversary we asked listeners to vote for the five best episodes we’ve done in the last five years, so throughout April we’re releasing The Year 5 Top 5! Rob and Will take a deep-dive into the smash-hit Marvel animated series X-Men 97 and ask the question - is this the greatest X-Men project of all time? Should the MCU learn lessons from this cartoon show?! We take you behind the scenes on the making of this series, how and why a revival of the classic X-Men cartoon from the 90’s was needed, and what this series does BETTER than the X-Men movies! We’ll explore the history and trivia behind Magneto leading the X-Men, the relationship between Rogue and Gambit, just how overlooked Cyclops has been as a character and leader, the Sinister story of Jean Grey and her clone The Goblin Queen, the origins of Morph, Storm, Forge, Mojo, Jubilee, Bastion, and so much more!
In part two we explore the episodes;
To Me, My X-Men
Mutant Liberation Begins
Fire Made Flesh
Motendo / Lifedeath – Part 1

This week we look at 2024’s Kraven The Hunter movie, and what turned out to be the final film for the Sony Spider-Man Universe! Rob and Will explore what went so wrong with Sony’s Spider-Man franchise and WHY this is the end of the SSU! We’ll guide you through the comic book history of Kraven, his intense relationship with Spider-Man, Kraven’s Last Hunt, and why he’s a character that’s better off dead! We’ll take you behind the scenes on the making of this movie, and then we’ll deliver our scene-by-scene deep-dive into the movie itself to find out what this movie got wrong and why Russel Crowe would make a much better Kraven The Hunter!
