Future X (spoiler)

In Future X you get to see more of what you saw in the end of Hindsight part 3(click to see the video). The Sentinels are in full force in this post apocalyptic future. They capture Professor X along with Cerebro and are taken to a mutant prison. There he meets up with Bishop, Hellion and Marrow, and together they stage a plan to escape.


Finally an episode about the future X-men. I thought action in this episode was great especially with Bishop. It was good to see the different ways he exhibited his powers. Second place for power usage goes to Kamal, he kicked some serious Sentinel ass with his metal from. The plot was great and I hope to see more episodes of the future X-men. The only complaint I have is no Cable. Where the hell is he? I mean this is a future episode and he is isn't anywhere in it. Maybe they'll put him in another future X-men episode along with more Master Mold. This episode takes second place for action in the series next to the Magneto battle (click to see video) in the pilot. To sum this up Future X gets a 10.

Time Bomb (review)

In 'Time Bomb' Logan and the X-men try to save mutant-kind after the brotherhood kidnaps Nitro(living bomb) and attempts to send him to Genosha but are thwarted by the X-men. This episode was pretty good, not as good as the others but still fun to watch. They seemed to have a new take on Nitro in this series instead of being a villain he is more of a sympathetic character. In addition to Nitro we have another mutant cameo, Psylocke. I liked how she looked in the series and her powers were portrayed nicely(with the exception of them not showing her forge weapons with her mind ). Although she did get owned by Emma Frost; I expected a way better fight between the two of them. Speaking of fights Cylclops, Shadowcat, and Iceman win for creative use of their powers, especially Kitty when she phased into the brotherhood plane with her "hi Rogue " moment. Personally, the best part of this episode when we get a glimpse of the father-son relationship between Pietro and Magneto. All in all good episode but not great.
