FAQs
Is X-Men 97 part of the MCU?
X-Men 97 is a rare revival that continues the story established by X-Men: The Animated Series, which ran from 1992 to 1997. It has direct continuity with that series, including returning voice actors. However, while it wouldn't be airing on Disney Plus without the X-Men joining Marvel after Disney acquired Fox in 2019, it will not form part of the MCU.
Continuity fans will have to wait a bit longer to see the mutant team join the main universe. However, Professor X's appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness looked a lot like Xavier from the animated series.
What was the first Marvel LEGO set?
The first wave of Marvel Superhero LEGO arrived in 2012. that comprised Wolverine's Chopper Showdown, inspired by the X-Men comics, and Spider-Man's Doc Ock Ambush, inspired by Ultimate Spider-Man. Of course, it was a big year in the MCU, and those two were joined by four sets based on The Avengers. That was the first LEGO inspired by Marvel as we know it today, a series that has now passed 200 sets. However, LEGO had made kits based on Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy a decade before.
