You got it right. Fishboy's first arc or two were actually okay. Chuck Austen's first story arcs in X-Men weren't bad at all, I liked that he made Husk a member of the X-Men, then he wrote the Draco and it all went to hell.

Yeah, I read the Dominant Species arc and thought it was quite good. I actually enjoy Juggernaut as a good guy now and I really really hope he remains that way.

As far as I'm concerned, that's the only positive thing Austin did during his run.

If only they could get Hugh Jackman to do the voice of Wolverine in the new series. If he could do a great job portraying Logan/Wolverine in the X-Men movies, he could do the same thing, providing the voice for the character. And in the past, he actually has voiced characters in movies. He actually voiced Roddy in Flushed Away, and Memphis in Happy Feet, so yeah, he could probably do well for the show.

*ToTheNines* · 04-11-2007, 09:45 PM

What channel is this show gonna be on?

Ra · 04-15-2007, 06:37 AM

*skids in* I just got back from an anime convention where I got to see a Voice Actor's panel featuring Tara Platt (Temari) and Yuri Lowenthal (Sasuke) from Naurto. I don't have any hard-core evidence, but Platt said that Lowenthal was doing a role on "Wolverine and the X-Men" as a character...I'm sure she said "Iceman". So, yes. Aparently Sasuke = Iceman for now. I can't be certain on this, but I'm sure he's got a role in there... *goes back to watch Yuri Lowenthal's IMDB page like a hawk*

*Tinuvielsdreams* · 04-16-2007, 05:30 PM

Another X men series...Sure why not... I guess now that the trilogy has been done they wanna bring it back to tv...I just wish they would play the 90s one sometimes

*Raph's Girl* · 04-20-2007, 06:44 PM

Well it's here! The first Promo image for Wolverine and the X-Men! It's a promo poster and many people have commented that it reminds em of Evolution. Either way me likey.

On the poster u can see Wolverine (duh), Colossus, Rogue, Nightcrawler, and 3 I don't recognize (one looks like Xavier but he's standing up. ô,0)

http://www.omelete.com.br/imagens/di...andthexmen.jpg

Casting update:
Kieren van den Blink - Rogue
Danielle Judovits - Shadowcat
Steven Blum - Wolverine
Nolan North - Cyclops/Scott Summers
Liam O'Brien - Nightcrawler, Angel
Tamara Bernier - Mystique
Dominic Janes - Sammy Paré/Squidboy
Richard Doyle - Sen. Kelly

*Mecha Cow* · 04-20-2007, 07:25 PM

The big guy looks like Beast. The bald dude might be Darwin (Why do I know this character? I don't even read the damn comics. Curse you Wikipedia and curse you boredom).

*ZariusTwo* · 04-20-2007, 07:31 PM

That IS Xavier, he's using special cybernetic harnasses to sustain his legs, obviously for the occasional fight scenes.

Looks like a hybrid of Evolution, and Whedon's X-Men.

*Mr._Mutant_Man* · 04-20-2007, 09:54 PM

This looks like it might be alright, although Shadowcat and Rogue look like they could stand to put on a few.

*Raph's Girl* · 04-20-2007, 10:36 PM

Confirmed characters to be in the series:
Angel
Beast (the really big dude in the poster)
Wolverine
Xavier (yes that's him standing up)
Rogue
Kitty Pryde (she's next to Rogue in the poster)
Colossus
Nightcrawler
Squidboy
Mystique
Sen Kelly

Beast will be voiced by Fred Tatasciore (Hulk in Ultimate Avengers, Gen Gato in TMNT 2007 movie).

So that's 2 people from the new TMNT movie to be cast in Wolverine and the X-men. It's interesting to note tho that Fred Tatasciore is the voice of Magneto in 2 of the X-Men games.

I agree it does.

As far as someone mentioning the 90's Xmen series airing, that actually had it showing on ToonDisney up until last fall i believe.

I too would have like McNiel to have done Wolvie's voice in this one, he did a great job i think in Evolution.
Ok, just checked out Blum's imdb, and i guess i can hear him playing Wolvie(recalling on his FF7:Advent Children performance as Vincent)

Also, is it just me, or does Nightcrawler look a little too tall in that poster preview?

*Mr._Mutant_Man* · 04-21-2007, 11:17 PM

If it features plenty of Shadowcat I'll be interested. She's always been my favorite female X-Man. Her powers don't seem all that great at first but there are so many uses for it.

*Raph's Girl* · 06-04-2007, 11:30 PM

*Vicky82* · 06-05-2007, 05:48 AM

I'm glad Jean Grey is in it, At first I thought she wasn't gonna be in it.

Catherine Disher played Jean Grey from the X-men in the 90s now she's playing Psylocke.

That's weird...they should have just re-cast her as Jean. It would have made more sense.

Now when I see the series I'll be confused cuz I'll be hearing Jean's voice coming out of Psylocke!

Time Mistress · 06-05-2007, 12:37 PM

Yeah, that is weird. Catherine should be Jean again. Anyway, I'm looking forward to this series. It's nice to see Psylocke and Angel listed as part of the main cast for once, they always get overlooked as characters too often.

*Raph's Girl* · 09-23-2007, 07:19 PM

After months of hearing no news about Wolverine and the X-Men it seems more casting is coming out:

http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stori...9/23/index.htm

Quote:

Tam Evans (aka Tamara Bernier) has announced on her website that she is providing the voice of Mystique in the upcoming Wolverine and the X-Men animated series.

Marvel Studios has yet to comment on any voice roles for the series.

Scripts have been completed for the 26 episodes of the first season of the series, which currently does not have an announced network attachment.

The show is being produced by Marvel and First Serve Toonz, an India- and London-based animation and distribution company.

Jason Netter of Kickstart Entertainment is producing, and Greg Johnson and Boyd Kirkland are returning from X-Men: Evolution to work on the new series.

*ZariusTwo* · 09-23-2007, 08:01 PM

Actually, the series will be premiering in the UK on BBC ONE in 2008.

...And yep, I'm expecting a "The Batman" version of X-Men Evolution here, no real change in style, writers, or anything in paticular. Makes one wonder why they cancelled Evo AT ALL...
