Marvel X-Men ’97: Character Guide

2024.05.14

The 90's style returns. The iconic 1990s setting and mutant team are scheduled to return in the reboot of Marvel Animation's . This team, which includes Cyclops, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Storm, Jubilee, Beast, Bishop, Rogue, Gambit, Moff, Nightcrawler, and Magneto, uses their special abilities to protect the world that hates and fears mutants. This new work (scheduled to premiere on Disney+ on March 20th) generally continues the story from 1997, when the popular Saturday morning animation "X-Men" ended. At the end of the original animation, the X-Men were faced with the challenge of facing a dangerous and unpredictable new future in which their leader, Professor Charles Xavier, was no longer there.



Therefore, in the new work, the Everything has been changed, including the new but modern animation style (which is faithful to the original work) introduced by Studio Mir (producer of > etc.).

 


 

 

Regarding continuing the X-Men animation in 2D, Vidal added: “In 2D, the simpler the design, the easier it is to animate. However, in order to be similar to the original work and comics, the look couldn't be simplified too much. I wanted to retain the design essence of the original work. So, while keeping the same costumes and using complex hairstyles like in the original work, we wanted to make sure there were no problems with the human body and make it as suitable for animation as possible. To do so, I practiced a lot on how to draw the human body, how to divide the hair into large chunks and subdivide them into smaller hairlines, and to emphasize shapes that give volume.
