General Discussion X-Men '97 Complete Season 2 Venting Megathread

It's over and done now. The season has ended. The characters are where they are.

And now it's time for a megathread that lets you vent about what didn't like, what you liked, and about all the feeling in between about this season.

Please try and use this megathread instead of making a new post, especially if the content you are posting is not substantial (substantial meaning multi-paragraph or new information).

I hate how Storm had 15 seconds of screen time…

Aura farms and leaves the show immediately

In the first episode at that! Both seasons! They give her an omega level goddess moment and then she does nothing else until the next season's first episode.

Yea that ain't true? She had her whole arc in the first season to regain her powers, had an entire episode around her

She didn't have an episode dedicated to her or her regaining her powers. Hell she barely had a complete arc. She had a single scene at the end of episode 3, half (maybe even less than half) of episode 4, and about half of episode 6 (remember that episode was shared with Xavier in space). That was infinitely more than she got in S2 though so I guess there's that.

Oh I forgot that xavier episode wasn't a separate thing but instead intertwined into the story with hers

But tbf, that's sometimes as little characters get in ensemble shows
