That's the show that got me into comics 🥰 Still has a special place in my heart because of that!!
The Evo adaptation of Rogue is sooooooooooo goooooooooood. I really came to appreciate TAS version of her, too, when I watched it for the first time last year. She's done SO well in X-Men '97 as well. You're in for such a treat!
OKAY LISTEN Evo is where I fell in love with X-Men and with Kurt!!! I will talk about my silly high school AU X-Men all day long. (I was just a tad too young for the original series; the animation creeped me out as a kid.)
It's such a fucking bummer because Kurt is the heart of the X-Men! I get why they didn't really use him in live action because that's a difficult physicality to adapt, but that doesn't excuse the animated series. And plus they adapt all these storylines he featured in pretty prominently. WHATEVER.
So Nightcrawler is in only like three episodes of the original series, and they commit what I personally regard as the cardinal sin of adapting him, e.g. they make religion his entire personality instead of just one small part of it. HOWEVER. X-Men '97 does him soooo right and he's in half of that.
It's so unfair 😭
I've been here the whole time, dude!!!!
THE baddest bitch, the original Disney GOAT
Yes!!!!! Exactly! You have to get so creative to beat them at their own game without tipping them off. In this case, I found a thing he definitely won't buy for himself but now every site I visit throws a huge ad for it in my face and I am SWEATING. It's hard enough to keep it on the DL as it is!!
