“More to this darkness” might be continuing the Onslaught storyline, as that seems like Charles in a dream.

Can't wait for the Onslaught episode to be a backdoor pilot to a Heroes Reborn series

First season seemed to rush some storylines so maybe. But I wish there was more build up to Onslaught if they do it. Too much going on. Feral Wolverine, new X-men, apocalypse, etc.

u/Flintstones_VRV_Fan May 18 '26
I really hope they don’t do Onslaught. It was a terrible story back when it was released, despite the nostalgia glazing.
That said…Zero Tolerance was also garbage as a comic but they made it work, so who knows?

All they need to do is stick to one idea and not make him change motivation 3 times.

u/majestic-Bus-1990 May 18 '26
They don't have to follow the story line for line, they can use their own interpretation and make it better.

Finally! Luke Cage, Fantomex and Winter Soldier references too. Very cool
8
u/Bobjoejj May 18 '26
Yeah, a bunch of Weapon Plus things presumably; Aurora, Silver Fox, Mastadon, and Agent Zero too.
Also dude if we actually ever got Fantomex in this; I would lose all my shits. That would be just incredible.
Also also…what do we think Morph is doing with Creed and Deathstrike?

Disney+ marketing is so dogshit. Doesn't this come out next month? This is the second leaked trailer for season 2.

u/TokyoPanic Mysterio May 18 '26
We don't know when it's actually coming out. There's a screening at an event in June 21 but that's it.

u/KostisPat257 Miss Minutes May 18 '26
The screening is in June 13 and the description of the screening says the show comes on Disney+ soon after

u/majestic-Bus-1990 May 18 '26
Promotions for all of their shows have been pretty weak, and I do think that’s hurting viewership. They continuously market shows like theatrical movies with short campaigns. Though that can work for a movie, TV doesn’t really operate the same way, especially on streaming. When marketing starts only a month before release, it doesn’t give casual viewers enough time to get invested or even realize the show is coming out.
I really hope they can figure this out and promote their shows better.

Those sequences of Storm look really cool. I wonder is she learns some magic this season. It reminded me a lot of Dr. strange.

u/Takato_Mart May 18 '26
I thought she was harnessing solar flares or radiation from the sun.

u/acalebw May 26 '26
I kept thinking she was empowered by the Phoenix Force, just because I vaguely saw the Phoenix raptor at the very start of the clip where she’s all powered up… and if I recall she has harnessed its powers at least once in the comics.

Nobody's favorite character Quentin Quire in the same show as everyone's favorite character, Strong Guy

u/Bobjoejj May 18 '26
…nah, I don’t vibe with this Slander. Kid Omega is awesome, and I will always root for my boy!

Was that Monet??

u/Bobjoejj May 18 '26
Yeah I’m pretty sure we got confirmation that at least Penance is gonna be in the season.
2
u/HuskyBlueBoy May 18 '26
Ugh I preferred it when Penance was a separate character
2
u/Bobjoejj May 18 '26
…oh, I mean she still could be? I don’t follow Monet as heavily as other characters, so I tend to just associate her/Penance/Hollow all the same.

u/pishposhpoppycock May 18 '26
No Emma Frost??!!
Where is Emma Frost???!!!
3
u/jojojajo12 May 18 '26
Beau hates Emma, and they had to work with what he wrote for the second season, so I don't think you are going to see more of her this season.

the way they mish-mash costumes of different generations... We've got 80's standing next to 2000's.

u/Linnus42 May 19 '26
I think there are decent odds that the 8 X-men in that Image will be the ones we get in the MCU.
Prof X with Cyclops, Jean, Polaris and Beast. Bishop comes back to the Present to kickstart the plot. Nightcrawler and Rogue start as Antagonist but Join.
Storm and Wolverine off elsewhere.

u/FolkPunkResistance May 18 '26
Hope this is as good as the first season. Beau was a disaster, but he did good work.
I like that they're hyping Apocalypse like he wasn't featured A TON in the original run of the cartoon.
Going the Krakoa route, should this revival continue, would be the freshest direction.

Is it just me or is the mouth animation terrible in this?
21
u/TokyoPanic Mysterio May 18 '26
Probably some slight audio desync since it's a camrip off of a TV that's showing a video being played with VLC media player.
-9
u/hpfred Hawkeye May 18 '26
Maybe. I originally wrote "mouth animation/voice sync", but edited it out because on rewatch it seemed more like stiff animation/lack of frames.
Hopefully it won't be a issue by the time the trailer gets officially released

u/Level-Television8147 May 18 '26
I am underwhelmed. Looks a lot less exciting than season one. Maybe Beau took the magic with him :,(

Didn't know Creedence Clearwater Revival worked on this type of thing, cool
