The Thunderbolts Special! A Deep-Dive Into Marvel’s Original Thunderbolts! Part Two

Because we had to handle the TERRIBLE X-Men Last Stand movie and the way it RUINED the Dark Phoenix Saga, we’re re-releasing our EPIC Phoenix episodes from 2021 so we can all experience how it SHOULD be done! Join Rob and Will as they head back to the 90’s and deep-dive into X-Men The Animated Series and the 9 episodes that faithfully adapted the best Marvel story of all time - The Dark Phoenix Saga! In Part One we go behind the scenes on the making of the classic 90’s cartoon, how it became one of the best Marvel projects of all time, and how they managed to adapt something as mature and complex as the Dark Phoenix! We go behind the page to look at the origins of the X-Men, how Marvel Comics CANCELLED the series, and how the entire mutant franchise was saved by the Dark Phoenix Saga! Plus there’s tons of trivia about Wolverine, Gambit, Professor Xavier’s dark side, and the aliens that can’t stay away from the X-Men!
