Synopsis

This animated series goes to the roots of the classic comic book X-MEN, capturing the mutants in their youth. Much like the series SMALLVILLE, the teens who would become the heroes and villains of a comic book world are all attending the same high school, creating a mixed student body with otherworldly conflicts that go beyond the typical high school hijinx. This collection includes episodes 10-13 of the series. Included is the wild two-part episode "The Cauldron" pitting mutants against each other in a bout for supremacy. Additional episodes are "Shadowed Past" and "Grim Reminder."


Xcellent!

I remember buying this last year from Asda, as I was in the mood for the old 90s cartoon series , since the recent last film, X-Men 3: The Last Stand. However, I didn't see any of the 90s one so I got this instead - haven't seen any previous episodes and picked up this in the supermarket cause it was only one I saw.

I did eventually watch all 4 episodes after I remembered after the hectic summer I had and I really enjoyed it.
Depicting the X-Men as teens, is different from the 90s one I recall, but this one it does work. The voice acting is top-notch and the animation is impressive too.

Because this is a cartoon series, it allows for each character to be developed more substansially than the films, so that's a bonus.

The introductions before each episode and the interview with the voices behind their animated characters in 'The X-Men Unmasked' is really informative and fun to watch.

I loved it, and I'll be buying the remaining volumes.

This is the best volume of x-men evolution (in the uk anyway) to date this packs the last 4 episodes which bring you Magneto's evil plan together, he pits all of the x-men and the brotherhood against one another so whoever the survivor are they can join him on Asteroid M. their he mutates their mutant powers! an example is Cyclops, magneto puts him in the machine and Scott (cyclops) comes out wiv white hair and no eye protector because he can see normal again but he can put his solar powered blast back on any time he wants it gives him full control of his powers along with his new found brother Alex! In the future like on x-men the 90's series you will know him as Havok on the episode with Iceman 'Obsession'! Mutants rising is also an amazing x-men evolution dvd title I have the complete series which you can't buy anywhere but ebay! Mutants rising is the first couple of episodes from season 2!
