Check out the latest clip from X-Men ’97, where Gladiator and the Shi’ar defeat Ronan and his army.
X-MEN ’97 has aired six thrilling episodes, leaving us with much to discuss. The show has revealed some big surprises, such as Jean Gray and The Goblin Queen’s identities, Mister Sinister’s evil plan, Storm losing her powers, and the Magneto/Rogue/Gambit love triangle. But this week, the series detours and heads into space after Gambit and Magneto’s tragic demise. This week, we reunite with Professor Charles Xavier as we explore his life with Lilandra. However, not everything is as it seems in true Marvel fashion.
RONAN DEFEATED!
Marvel Animation has recently unveiled a new clip from this week’s episode, showcasing Gladiator and the Shi’ar forces. The scene is a pivotal moment in the Marvel universe, depicting the defeat of Ronan, The Accuser, and the Kree armies. Deathbird will be shown to have emerged victorious, leaving the Kree at her mercy. (Don’t tell the Guardians!). Watch the clip below.
