X-Men: The Animated Series ended Season 2 with a two-part finale called “Reunion,” and somehow TWO episodes managed to feel about six episodes too long. 😬
In this episode of XXL Men, we're reviewing “Reunion, Part 1” and “Reunion, Part 2” from the classic 1990s X-Men cartoon. Professor Xavier and Magneto are trapped in the Savage Land, Mister Sinister is up to his usual nonsense, and our favorite mutants are dragged into a finale that should have been exciting. Unfortunately, we think it's absolutely TERRIBLE.
We're talking about the frustrating storytelling, the questionable choices, the endless patience this two-parter demands, and whether there is ANYTHING worth rescuing from this mutant-sized mess.
We love X-Men: The Animated Series. That doesn't mean we're going to pretend every episode is a winner.
⚠️ SPOILER WARNING: We discuss both episodes in detail.
💬 YOUR TURN: Do you think “Reunion” is an underrated Season 2 finale, or are these among the weakest episodes of the entire series? Tell us in the comments. We genuinely want to know if anyone is willing to defend this thing.
