Suggested order for X-Men animated series - A Man and a Woman Working for a Delivery Company

I would like to watch the X-Men animated series, from the beginning to end, to get to know it better. I mean, there are several series out there, but I don't know which one starts it all, to begin with.

It would be great if someone could help me with a list in order to start with.



Best Answer

X-Men are part of animated shows from 1966 but there are only three major X-men animated shows:

  1. X-Men (1992–1997) ( aka X-Men: The Animated Series): This one was the first successful launch of X-Men in an animated medium and ran for 5 seasons and 76 episodes. The show also had crossover episodes with Spider-Man (1994 TV series) and was quite successful commercially and also critically acclaimed.

  2. X-Men: Evolution (2000–2003): X-Men Evolution was pretty well received too, but they played with the age of characters a lot, and made most of them teenagers. It ran for 4 seasons with 52 episodes.

  3. Wolverine and the X-Men (2009) This one ran for only one season with 26 episodes and ended with a big cliffhanger which was never resolved.

All three shows work individually and have no impact on each other, so you can watch any one of the three or even all three.

There was one failed attempt at an animated show called X-Men: Pryde of the X-Men but it never made it, and only a pilot episode was created, so you can safely avoid it. The Marvel Super Heroes also has X-men in them but they never call them by that name, and their main leads are non X-men members.

Why is X-Men: The Animated Series out of order?

Why? Because the show had one script order created by the writers, another production order created by the network, and then didn't actually air in either of those orders (so there's a third airdate order), and has yet another order from some old Official Marvel Episode Guide, and possibly more.

  • How many X-Men animated series are there?

    To date, there are nine X-Men cartoons. The X-Men cartoons \u2013 which were produced between 1981 and 2011 \u2013 include: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends (1981 \u2013 1983)* Pryde of the X-Men (1989)

    Should I watch X-Men: Evolution before Wolverine and the X-Men?

    Yeah, at best Wolverine & the X-Men could be viewed as a spiritual successor to X-Men: Evolution, but there's no way it's a direct follow-up. Too much of Wolverine contradicts Evo for the 2 shows to be in the same continuity.
