With only four episodes left to go until X-Men '97's season one finale, the Marvel Animation series is only continuing to earn more praise and attention. The show continues the narrative of X-Men: The Animated Seriesin some pretty unexpected ways, all while folding in some newer elements of Marvel continuity. Thus far, there are a lot of elements to X-Men '97 that have been refreshing to witness, from the show's various reinterpretations of comic storylines, to its newer sensibility towards visual spectacle. While we still have a few weeks left until Season 1 of X-Men '97 is in the books, an argument can be made that the show is feeling so refreshing, in part, because one of the show's team members isn't a main focus: Logan Howlett / Wolverine.
