@Ha1frican - Its definately not on the same level as Legion, but they are very different in tone and execution of similar concepts and source material.

@Ha1frican - I think it's really good. I'm the same way with approaching anything xmen but I was suprised at how much i like this.

@Ha1frican - It's the best CBM show out at the moment IMO, but you should check it out for yourself

I thought the kids were just TV versions on Fenris, so this is a pleasant surprise. I hope they continue to introduce and cameo lesser known mutants from the comics. So far the show is enjoyable for the most part.

So that was the reason Baron Von Strucker was used like a turd in Age Of Ultron? :/

Let the sons of the Bolívar Trask of this universe appear. If this is about mutant brothers and "sentinela" services, who better than them?.

I've really been enjoying the slow buildup in this show to a much larger X-Universe of characters. It's made for a fun watch.
