From Marvel to DC, Geeks explores the popular and independant comic titles in the geek universe.
X-Men '97
X-Men ‘97 has been praised for more than just its nostalgia factor. Its classic writing and impressive reflection of the source material made fans declare this one of the MCU’s best projects. They filled a desperate gap as fans have been asking for the X-Men for about a decade now. I do believe their only mistake was how short this season was. With the newest declaration of Marvel Animation being assigned its own division of the MCU (which is always how it's worked by the way. There is no world that exists where tv, film and animation were done by the same people. It was always separate; the declaration does nothing but prove the public’s lack of knowledge about the industry.) We will hopefully see some more X-Men in the coming years. So here we are with the X-Men ‘97 finale.

X-Men
When we last left our X-Men my sweet sweet Gambit was DEAD, somebody better fix that. Charles is alive and heading back to earth. I love that we are getting more Kurt. And my Storm has her powers back and she knows what happened to Genosha so theoretically she is headed back to the X-Men. The last couple of episodes were extremely emotional so I am hoping for a bit of a break but we now have to deal with the aftermath of Gambit’s death so we will see how that goes.

X-Men '97
When we last left X-Men ‘97 lots of shit went down. Genosha and therefore the mutants were admitted into the UN. They are trying to convince us that Rogue and Magneto are a thing (which is super gross by the way) and we are still missing Storm. This now marks the halfway point for the 10 episode season.

The Ascention of Tony Tony Chopper
In the vast and dynamic world of One Piece, strength is a pivotal aspect that often determines the fate of characters and nations alike. Among the myriad of formidable pirates and warriors, few stand as towering figures of power like Kaido, the feared Emperor of the Sea. However, amidst the tumultuous seas and epic battles, another character's journey towards strength captivates the imagination – Tony Tony Chopper, the endearing reindeer doctor turned fearsome pirate. Despite his humble beginnings, could Chopper truly ascend to the echelons of strength occupied by titans like Kaido? This article delves deep into Chopper's potential, exploring the factors that could shape his evolution and his chances of rivaling the might of Kaido.

Thank You, Makima
*Mild spoilers for Chainsaw Man, but nothing explicit!* I love anime and manga. I’ve loved it for a long time. But I’ll be the first to say it: anime and manga often lack good female characters. This especially goes for shonen anime, anime aimed at younger males, where the most important characters are almost always male. If there’s a female character, she’s usually there to be either a side character or the love interest. That’s the way it tends to go. Hey, I don’t make the rules.

Shang-Chi: The Legend of the Ten Rings
Okay we have now been watching Shang-Chi for a month and a half. There has been a drinking game that has been crafted and played and we have assessed the film’s comic book accuracy. We are doing our best to keep this journey interesting for ourselves. We are now doing a companion podcast where we are watching (or rewatching) all of the MCU movies. We will also have a guest soon and we’ve got a few other ideas that are going to keep everyone entertained for a while.
