It's awesome to see X-Men '97 coming back and capturing that 90s nostalgia, but good things take time, especially in the world of animation. While the wait until 2026 might feel like a long one, there are plenty of other Marvel projects to keep us entertained in the meantime – I'm definitely looking forward to Deadpool and Wolverine
