6 Thoughts on the Second Season of X-Men ’97
The second season of X-Men ’97 was not the masterpiece of the first season, probably for a lot of reasons. Original showrunner Beau DeMayo was let go for very good reasons, and this season is apparently a mish mash of his original ideas and the new showrunner making some changes. The mish mash nature shows. But just because season two is not as good as season one doesn’t mean I didn’t have a very good time enjoying my X-Men cartoon!
TV Show Rating: 8/10 – Very Good
X-Men ’97 has already been confirmed for a third and, I think, fourth season. There’s going to be a lot of this show. And I can’t wait to watch more! Nine episodes in a single season is just not enough. I want more X-Men adventures. I want more character-focused episodes. I want more cameos out the wazoo! I want more alternate takes on the opening theme song! That was a real hoot! We’re several years away from getting new X-Men movies in the MCU, so I’ll gladly take the X-Men ’97 world any day of the week.
Join me after the jump for my full thoughts and review. Expect FULL SPOILERS for the first and second seasons of X-Men ’97. And feel free to share your own thoughts in the comments below!

A new episode of Deep Space Discounts came out last week and I’m sharing! Because I want to!
Another hoot! If you’re not familiar, Deep Space Discounts is the original cartoon by YouTube animator DeepBlueInk. I love his work —mostly because he does animatics of Dropout, Drawfee and My Brother, My Brother and Me content, all of which I watch and enjoy. And I’m all in on support Deep Blue Ink’s series! And I hope you like it too.
Until next episode!

Deep Space Discounts is Back!
I mostly watch garbage on YouTube. It fills my time and hopefully that emptiness in my soul. But sometimes I watch good stuff, like the work of DeepBlueInk. And while he mostly does animatics of YouTubers I like, he’s also got his own original cartoon: Deep Space Discounts! And the second season has arrived!
Good times. Man, if I could afford animation, there’d be so many Gamer Girl & Vixen cartoons…
Anyway, this is a fun show. I posted the first season when it came out last year. But you can obviously find the previous episodes on DeepBlueInk’s YouTube. I’m gonna keep posting the episodes when they come out because I should post some good, quality stuff on this blog occasionally.

New Coyote vs. Acme Trailer!
We’re in the middle of San Diego Comic-Con and, once again, I’m not there. Maybe I’ll go someday. We’ll see how life and my health hold up. But we’re getting a ton of trailers and reveals and announcements. I can’t post them all, but I’m saving some of my favorites, like this new trailer for Coyote vs. Acme!
Wile E. Coyote is my favorite of the Looney Tunes, since I was a kid. So that he’s getting his own movie, and it seems to have nothing but heart for the dude, is super fun! And the movie looks funny. That bit with John Cena and Tweety Bird? Golden! I’m definitely gonna see this one in theaters, if it comes near me.
Coyote vs. Acme comes to theaters on Aug. 28.

Tell It Animated: Bowser and Punisher
One of my favorite little channels on YouTube is Tell It Animated, where a dude draws character evolutions from over the years/decades. He’s a cool dude with a great gimmick. And I like sharing what he’s made, even if I’m rather late with at least one of these.
First up is Bowser, or King Koopa for those of us who grew up in the 1980s.
And then we’ve got the Punisher, ahead of his upcoming appearance in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
Good videos, both! Hopefully they brighten somebody’s Monday. I gotta get some work in today and then I’m going to see The Odyssey, so hopefully it’ll be a good day for yours truly.
