Part of me is excited for it, the other part wants to shoot the producers in the face (not that I would -- or know how) because there's about a 95% chance of them screwing this up, given Marvel's recent track record, although the X-Men anime wasn't horrible, IMO.

Honestly, I just hope it doesn't turn out to be another motion-comic like Astonishing X-Men. The animation in that really freaked me out for some reason.

Me too. To be honest, I really wanted Astonishing X-Men to be fully animated and not a motion comic. Sometimes the animation of the motion comics just doesn't sit too well with me.

Yeah, I was really excited when I found Astonishing X-Men on Netflix livestream. I thought it was some X-Men animated movie that had gone straight to DVD, but then when I started to watch it, I thought I was going to have nightmares. The eyes moving especially freaked me out.

Roster--

Professor Xavier (obviously), Jean Grey, Scott Summers, Hank McCoy, Bobby Drake, and eventually (meaning by the end of the first season) Logan, Ororo Munroe, Kitty Pryde, Kurt Wagner, Rogue, and Warren Worthington III.

PilotPlot--

The episode will open with a letter from Professor Xavier. The letter states that he's know of the existence of the mutants, which is currently quiet but not unheard of, and that he is inviting them to attend his school. The letter is held by a sixteen-yr-old Jean Grey, who is depressed and attempting to cope with the death of her best friend. Her powers have only just started to develop recently.

When Professor Xavier does not receive an answer from Jean's parents, he decides to go and visit her himself. His only student, at the moment, is Scott Summers. He brings Scott with him. When they arrive, they are immediately turned away by Jean's parents as they have no idea who Scott or the professor. They have never seen the letter regarding Xavier's school and know little about Jean's developing powers, which they have witnessed once thus far. They had assumed it to be nothing.

The next day, there is a shooting at Jean's school. The shooter is a senior boy, who was the school's star quarterback until he suffered an in-game injury and lost his college scholarship. He now has no way of getting into college and his father views him as worthless. He targets Jean as one of his victims, and she unknowingly uses her telepathy to cry out for help.

Scott and the Professor arrive on the scene.

Scott enters the building as back-up, while the Professor remains outside and uses his telepathy to help Jean talk the boy out of shooting her.

Jean uses her telekinesis to get the gun away from him and Scott stuns him with his optic lasers as the police arrive.

Jean then agrees to go the professor's school after talking it over with her parents.

The series is told mostly from Jean's POV and will be in the same vein as X-Men: Evolution and X-Men Misfits with the X-Men as teenagers, and with Professor Xavier giving us an ending monologue at the end of every episode. The first season will focus on the introduction and recruitment of the X-Men with subtle side-plot that will hint that at the first big battle with Magneto and The Brother of Evil Mutants at the end of season.By the end of the season, the existence of mutants will have been made public knowledge and Angel will have run away from his father, having received a letter from Xavier himself in the beginning of the series, and joined the X-Men in time for their first big confrontation with Magneto.

New mutants and villains will be introduced in the second season, although Senator Kelly will be a villain from the get-go as he assists with funding a lab run by Warren Worthington II, who is exploring the cause of his son's mutation and attempting to find out if there is a way to reverse it.

Loved this show and would love to see a continuation of it, but I don't think it's going to happen. From what I heard, the show was cancelled because of a lack of funding and I don't any amount of fan love is going to help with that 9 years later unless someone wants to donate the money.

Hi, I'm vampy -- b/c I'm superstitious about giving out my actual name on the interweb unless it's FB or Twitter. I'm 22, I live in FL, studying to be a teacher.

Um, I don't really have a huge comic book collection, but I love Marvel Comics -- and some DC -- and my favorite series include in the 1992 Batman cartoon, 1994 Spider-Man, the 1998 Silver Surfer cartoon, X-Men: Evolution, Wolverine and the X-Men, and Teen Titans. X-Men is by far my favorite series, although I haven't watched the entire '92 cartoon series yet, but I also like Marvel's The Runaways, and I make a habit of seeing all Marvel movies on opening day -- except for the X-Men movies. I kinda gave up on those after The Last Stand.
