Okay... while I don't share everyone's enthusiasm i must say that this version of the mythos is just good enough to keep me entertained. Great stories, great voice work, and great action sequences.
Wolverine did lead the team on occasion in the books and he is the oldest in the house... makes sense for him to be the leader here. The other thing is that cool is the other characters' personalities. I love the way they portrayed Mr. Sinister, he's absolutely perfect. One of my favorite villains that I've yet to learn everything about. It's like they took both Evo and TAS and mixed them in for a better series. Not perfect in my book, it still leaves me wanting an upbeat soundtrack and brighter style. The whole "we're making it darker" thing doesn't work for me. Every individual X-man is dark and tortured enough. Through some happiness on these characters.
When I first saw the ads I got sick to my stomach. The way they designed wolverine's arms and torso is like something out of Fist of the north star... just way to big. Did Rob Liefeld draw this? X-men Evo is a little exaggerated as well but not as much as this one. But I digress, it's very entertaining when you just need another hit of X-men in your veins.
Anyway, until Bruce Wayne buys the X-mansion and evicts all the muties to the morlock tunnels... make mine Marvel. :P
