2 issues in one week? Yep, the guys give their full spoiler thoughts on the X-Men '97 finale but they're not alone. They're joined by Ashley Saunders of the Geek Girls Universe podcast to breakdown the season finale. The group discus how X-Men '97 was able to stick the proverbial landing in it's first season, whether Bastion won, the easter eggs, what some of the plot threads dangling could mean, the cliffhanger ending, what happened to Wolverine/Storm/Morph, predictions on next season, whether Onslaught could be a villain for season 3, and much more!
