Aug 10, 2024 8:39 PM

Marvel Animation showcased exciting new details about upcoming animated series during D23 2024. Fans can expect unique art styles for each show, as the company aims to highlight different visual approaches rather than a unified “Marvel house style.” Upcoming titles include "What If...? Season 3," which retains its beloved cell-shaded look while exploring fresh narratives featuring popular characters, and "Eyes of Wakanda," debuting later this year, which will employ 3D animation to delve into the rich lore of Wakanda. The "X-Men '97" series continues to inspire fans with new character developments and will build on the momentum of its first season.

What can we expect from the upcoming Marvel animated shows?

Fans can anticipate a variety of art styles, intriguing storylines featuring beloved characters, and potential expansions to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, notably with new elements and characters introduced through "Eyes of Wakanda." "What If...? Season 3" promises to continue its whimsical approach to reimagining iconic Marvel narratives.

"What If...?" is a unique animated anthology series that reinterprets pivotal moments in the Marvel Comics universe, allowing for creative exploration of character stories that fans love. Meanwhile, "Eyes of Wakanda" aims to deepen the lore established in the "Black Panther" film, providing viewers with a comprehensive background on the advanced African nation and its complex characters. Marvel's legacy in animation is robust, with many fans excited about these innovative new entries in their canon. "X-Men '97," a revival of the classic series, continues to resonate with audiences, showcasing the lasting impact of Marvel's storytelling in animation.

I'm really digging the idea of Marvel experimenting with different artistic styles for their animated series; it's about time they break free from that uniform look It’s awesome to see shows like *Eyes of Wakanda* and *X-Men ‘97* not just revisiting beloved characters but doing so in ways that push creative boundaries.
