Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Wolverine and the X-Men is an Animated Adaptation of the X-Men franchise. It premiered in America in 2009 and everywhere else in the world in 2008.The show begins with the destruction of the Xavier Institute and Professor Xavier and Jean Grey missing due to being apparently dead. A distraught Cyclops disbands the team, and everyone heads in their own directions. After a run-in with some token anti-mutant villains, Wolverine decides the X-Men must be reassembled, and begins locating the missing members.As the title may have told you, this show heavily focuses on Wolverine, even becoming the leader of the X-Men. That said, there were more than enough A Day in the Limelight episodes to prevent things from being too repetitive, and the show explores the "Days of Future Past" storyline and "Genosha as Mutant Refuge" concept in more depth than any other adaptation. Forge and Emma Frost are made part of the main cast for the first time.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Despite early reports of plans for Season 2, it was canceled after just one season, joining The Spectacular Spider Man, which was cancelled not too long before.While the show itself didn't last very long, its legacy did live on in a very unusual way. Two years after the series' cancellation, Marvel launched a new comic series of the same name, which again focused on Wolverine re-building the school and reluctantly assuming the leadership role of to a group of X-Men (albeit under different circumstances). While some character have been know to make the jump from an adaptation to its source material before, this is one of the few time a source material has come to mirror the premise of its adaptation.This series has multiple character pages that are under construction (help is needed please).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Comic-Book Fantasy Casting | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_11bc87bc | comment |
Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: Jim Ward's voice as Professor Xavier and Tom Kane's voice as Magneto were inspired by the live-action versions played by, respectively, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. Likewise, Fred Tatasciore's Beast seems patterned on Kelsey Grammer's Beast from X3, Jennifer Hale as Jean Grey evokes the sound of her film actress counterpart Famke Janssen while Nolan North as Cyclops vaguely evokes his film counterpart James Marsden, Kieren van den Blink as Rogue evokes film actress Anna Paquin, Liam O'Brien's Nightcrawler was partially inspired by Alan Cumming's portrayal from X2. On a non-X-Men Film Series note, Kevin Michael Richardson's Shadow King sounds exactly like Frank Welker's voice for Dr. Claw, and Soundwave, and Darkseid. | |

Brainwashed and Crazy: Mojo does this to Wolverine in an episode. Sinister does this to Angel in order to make him into Archangel. Although, it's not made clear if this is entirely the case at first certainly by the end of the series, he seems to be a mindless puppet of Sinister's. | |

The Worf Effect | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_178ca149 | comment |
The Worf Effect: Juggernaut only makes two appearances in the series. In the first he was clobbered to demonstrate how powerful another character was. His second sequence is barely a cameo, where he escapes entirely off-screen. He doesn't even get to say a word. Commented upon in his first appearance when he gets launched halfway across a city and knocked out cold. Wolverine, despite having his name in the title, is not slacking on his indestructible punching bag duties. Against anyone with a name he either loses, stalemates, or gets a beatdown before winning. The hazards of having blades as your main offense when you aren't allowed to cut anyone. The entire X-Men team gets kidnapped by ninjas just so Wolverine can rescue them. Our heroes, ladies and gentlemen... | |

Not as You Know Them: Not as prevalent as one would expect. Besides Cyclops and Wolverine's role swap, and Storm's Demoted to Extra, the rest of the cast is pretty much spot-on. Depending on which media you were introduced to them. Rogue and Kitty seem to be movie versions, Emma is the comics version, Forge is no version we've ever seen, Polaris is a Daddy's Girl, etc. Angel is apparently good friends with Wolverine in the series, whereas the comic book Angel couldn't stand Wolverine and once quit the team because of it. | |

Wrong Genre Savvy: Cyclops is so certain that Sinister had something to do with Jean's disappearance, which is reasonable given the backstory, but he's actually innocent. It gets deconstructed, as Cyclops becomes so obsessed that he nearly gets himself killed. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: For some odd reason, the series is FULL of these (possibly some of these characters would have returned as heroes had the second season been made): Domino is a member of the X-Force and the X-Men in the comics, but she is depicted as a terrorist and member of the Brotherhood of Mutants in the adaptation, which results in her basically being similar role to Mystique in all but her name, appearance, personality, and powers as Mystique herself is The Dragon to Magneto in some adaptations. Multiple Man is depicted in this adaptation as a member of Mr. Sinister's Marauders despite being a main character in X-Factor since the 90's. Likewise, the Stepford Cuckoos are shown in this series as villainous members of the Inner Circle Club despite being students at the Xavier Institute in the comics. Psylocke is a heroic member of the X-Men in the comics. In this adaptation, she assists the Brotherhood in one episode (although she's shown to be a reluctant recruit who only helps out the group because she owes Quicksilver a favor). Blink was associated with Generation X and was a member of the New Mutants. Her better-known alternate version rose from Age of Apocalypse mainstay to leader and main hero of the Exiles. In this adaptation, she is a member of Magneto's Acolytes. Mercury was a member of the New X-Men in the comics. In this adaptation, she is a member of Magneto's Acolytes. In the comics, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were former members of the Brotherhood of Mutants who abandoned Magneto very quickly and joined The Avengers. In this adaptation, Quicksilver is still a member of the Brotherhood while Scarlet Witch is loyal to her dad (although it isn't until the finale that she finally realizes what a monster Magneto is and turns against him). Zig-zagged with Magneto himself. While he wasn't a villain in the comics at the time the show was released, there are over 3 decades (60's, 70's and 90's) of comics where he was the villain meaning the show wasn't exactly pulling its villainous portrayal of him out of its ass. Emma Frost. Just like Magneto, she used to be one hell of a foe (even being Big Bad of New Mutants for a time) but comic fans know that that was a long time ago, at least in the main Marvel Universe. In this show, she's The Mole and still the White Queen of the Hellfire Club. However, she does sacrifice her life to contain the Phoenix in the series finale. The Phoenix. This is far from the first adaptation to do so, but it's worth mentioning that in the comics, Jean as Phoenix was good but Anti-Hero-ish, had to resist darker impulses but stayed in control (she was actually Phoenix for quite some time), and even saved the universe. It took the Hellfire/Inner Circle Club's interference to cause her to become Dark Phoenix. This adaptation uses The Theme Park Version where the Phoenix is a 100% Bad Thing. Of course, the Inner Circle Club was trying to control the Phoenix in this version, but it wasn't quite the same as Jason Wyngarde and Emma Frost putting her under More Than Mind Control and pretty much breaking down her self-control bit by bit until we get a monster. Gambit isn't even an X-man and all and seems to just be some kind of amoral mercenary type. Too be fair, we only see him for all of two episodes, so there could be more to him. | |

Aborted Arc | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: A significant amount of plot points and storylines have not been resolved due to the show’s cancellation. The Age of Apocalypse storyline, which was going to be the main arc for the scrapped second season. Professor Xavier is still in a coma. Colossus never got the chance to rejoin the X-Men. Angel is currently under Mister Sinister's control. Master Mold is still out there, trapped in the body of a Sentinel. X-23 is still in Weapon X's custody. The MRD continue to pose a threat, even by the series' end. The X-Men are still rebuilding themselves, even after the X-Mansion incident. Due to the fact that the series was canceled, Cyclops had never received the opportunity of rising up and redeeming himself and becoming the hero we all know him to be. However, due to that the cliffhanger showed Cyclops would have spent half the season working for the bad guys, it seems highly unlikely that Cyclops would have became the leader again had the series continued. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: A lot of background mutants are cult favourites such as Dazzler. The number of mutant cameos is frankly ridiculous(ly awesome). Seriously, there was a whole action sequence in one episode that was just dealing with Fever Pitch. And when the Marauders Blockbuster and Vertigo are first seen, they're harassing the Morlock Berserker, in reference to their part in the infamous Morlock Massacre storyline. Wolverine wearing his silly original costume in the flashback in the episode "Wolverine vs The Hulk". Kavita Rao appears for one scene, watching over Tildie Smoans. In the comics, Kavita used her Mutant Cure to permanently depower Tildie when her powers went out of control. Rover the Sentinel and his Pokémon Speak comes from the final arc of Grant Morrison's run, though with Tom Skylark replaced with Marrow. | |

The Complainer Is Always Wrong: Because Logan is a perfectly level-headed leader that makes infallible decisions and always wins his fights and never puts the team at unacceptable risk, the dissenting troubled anti-hero Cyclops must always be wrong. Comes up again in the following episode where Cyclops doubts Rogue's sincerity in coming to warn the X-Men of the Brotherhood's antics. | |

Violently Protective Girlfriend: Teen Jean Grey going toe to toe with Magneto to save teen Cyclops may count, but probably even more so as an adult when she (justifiably)violently throws Emma Frost up against a wall and binds her there with pipes for kissing an unconscious Cyclops. And in between that briefly going into Phoenix mode when Cyclops almost gets knifed by Archangel. | |

| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_34889673 | comment |
Gender Flip: Arclight was changed from a woman into a man for the show. According to the commentary for "eXcessive Force", this was done because the crew was uncomfortable with having Cyclops attacking a woman while looking for Mister Sinister. This show's version of Master Mold is found to be female. Her design resembles Danger from the comics. | |

Turns out the helmet was just misdirection so that he could cripple their infastructure with a few well-placed explosives. | |

At the end of the episode, Nightcrawler has to flee Genosha, but he has no transport, so he has to teleport back to the mainland across the sea, rapidly enough to avoid falling into the sea. He eventually ends up at Prof Xavier's Institute, exhausted. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: In the comics, Nitro is a killer for hire in addition to the fact that he caused both the deaths of the Kree Captain Marvel and the Stamford Incident that killed about 700-ish people. In this adaptation, Nitro releases giant explosions of energy whenever he's stressed, or just when enough energy is stored up. He willingly submits to confinement so he doesn't harm others, and is used by the villains as a blunt instrument against his will. Emma Frost is portrayed in a more sympathetic light, completely turning her into a straight hero rather than a byronic one. That said, this version of Frost also has Adaptational Villainy, as she's The Mole and still the White Queen of the Inner Circle (and even kicks off the events of the series as it's revealed she is the one who attacked Jean and Professor Xavier, which in turn ended up destroying the mansion—albeit with the intention of taking out the Phoenix before she could be a threat). | |

Broken Aesop | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_401d4116 | comment |
Broken Aesop: The series showcased Cyclops grieving over the disappearance of his beloved Jean Grey (who was actually introduced giving him a hard time about sucker-punching Wolverine in a fit of jealousy and then blows a kiss to his rival) and being annoyed at Professor Xavier demoting him while promoting Wolverine to leader. The series seemed to initially pitch the idea that Cyclops had to learn to let go of his resentments and move on with his life, including but no limited to hooking up with his then comic current girlfriend Emma Frost. 26 episodes later... he ended up back together with Jean anyway after waiting for the odds to change in his favor. Great moral for the kids - You shouldn't learn to move on from the loss of your loved ones. Instead, you should just sit around being depressed in the hopes that they'll eventually come back to you. Not only that, but if someone you know who is kind of a friend or perhaps even practically family is clearly suffering severe emotional trauma, it's perfectly okay to ignore them and abandon them to their turmoil because they're inconveniencing you. | |

Humans Are the Real Monsters: As much as normal humans like Senator Kelly claim to fear mutants, he and the MRD are the real oppressors and the ones causing more harm than the Mutant villains. It's Lampshaded when a non-mutant family is arrested and tortured by the MRD for harboring Wolverine even after he saved them; they tell them that that they're the ones people should watch out for, not the mutants. Furthermore, things like Project Wideawake are the equivalent of holocaust and genocide for Mutants. | |

Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_5663a595 | comment |
Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole: The series features a Plot Hole during a Whole Episode Flashback which shows the Silver Age X-Men battling Magneto. Iceman is a teenager and significantly younger than the founding X-Men in the show, so it makes no sense for him to have been part of the team when they were all teens themselves. He'd have to have been a child when Xavier recruited him for any of that to make a lick of sense. What's worse, in the flashback he actually looked older. Theoretically, it could be that this Iceman is an entirely separate character, explaining the "snowman" look and age discrepancy - after all, it's incredibly common for mutants to have similar powers/themes across all X-Men media. This, however, raises the question of why we never learn what happened to the original Iceman and no one ever mentions him. | |

Enemy Mine: Senator Kelly and Magneto had a deal in which the MRD would deport all their captives to Genosha. The deal ended when Magneto learned that Kelly was secretly keeping the most powerful mutants under lock and key. The Brotherhood and the X-Men had this once, on Quicksilver's suggestion. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: This adaptation drew from many of the elements of the X-Men lore, particularly from both of the original (mainly through elements like the formation of the X-Men, the members of the original X-Men team that was founded by Professor Xavier had consisted of Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast without fur, Angel and Iceman, etc) and modern (mainly through elements like most of the character designs, the disbanding of the X-Men, Genosha, etc) versions of the X-Men that are from the mainstream Marvel Universe as well as from the Ultimate (mainly through elements like Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver being raised by Magneto, Both Magneto and Quicksilver leading the Brotherhood of Mutants, Toad's design, Wolverine being taller, the event of a fleet of Sentinels being sent to Genosha to attack Magneto and the mutants living there, etc) version of the X-Men. The series also uses elements that were from the live action film series (mainly through elements like the use of the movie version of Warren Worthington II, the designs of Cerebro and the Xavier institute, the Father-Daughter relationship that was between Wolverine and Rogue, the fact that the voices of many of the characters such as Professor Xavier and Magneto appear to be inspired by the voices of the actors and actresses that portray the characters in the film series, etc). | |

Heel–Face Turn: Semi-used. Mid-season, Rogue reveals that she only joined the Brotherhood in order to infiltrate them, because she learned some unpleasant things from Toad's mind. And while Emma may not have been working for the X-Men per-se, her goals were always good (stop the Phoenix). It's the Inner Circle who had a Face–Heel Turn when they decided to use the Phoenix as a tool for their own power. | |

Played straight with Marrow, if unintentionally. Hurling bone blades is pretty useless when you're fighting Giant Robots and smaller robots with a Healing Factor. She cracks a Sentinel's chest-laser lens in one episode and... that's about it. Even the one time one of her blades comes in handy, knocking Polaris' helmet off, it's Domino who uses it for that purpose and not Marrow herself. | |

Took a Level in Dumbass | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_6a4f3cf7 | comment |
Took a Level in Dumbass: Quicksilver; though much of it is Magneto's complaints, the whole near-disaster with Nitro, where he didn't stop to think that maybe bringing a mutant whose uncontrollable power is blowing up onto his dad's precious mutant haven isn't such a good idea. Especially when the best he can do to try and control said mutant's power is to have an inexperienced telepath — who even warns him she's never tried anything like this before — tinker with the mutant's brain. If the X-men hadn't intervened, Quicksilver would have been personally responsible for the deaths of half the mutants on the planet. Cyclops, who is so caught up in his despair over Jean's disappearance that he does things like go off to pick a fight with Mr. Sinister, which even Wolverine proclaims is a bad idea. Arguments about characterization aside, it's not so hard to consider why Professor Xavier might have considered Cyclops to not be in any shape to lead the team again. | |

Big Bad Ensemble: Mastermold is the Big Bad of the Bad Future Xavier is stuck in, while Magneto and Senator Robert Kelly largely take the role among several long-term villains Though the Inner Circle also has a pretty good claim on driving a lot of the plot. The Sequel Hook set up Apocalypse as the Big Bad for an aborted second season, although Sinister basically served as Dragon-in-Chief in this respect for the show. | |

Adaptational Badass: Zigzagged with Magneto. While Magneto in the comics is a very powerful mutant who has the ability to generate and control magnetic fields, he has the tendency of having his powers decreased in innumerable adaptations (both animated and live action) and is never as powerful as his comic book counterpart through being restricted to hurling around girders as well as being unable to resist telepathic attacks for long periods of time without his helmet. In this adaptation, Magneto is just as powerful as his comic book counterpart and possesses more resistance toward telepathic attacks. | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The show goes out of its way to avoid specifying where pretty much anything is. Along with the aforementioned generic "city", it's incredibly mum on the subject of where Genosha's supposed to be. The only thing specified is that it either requires a plane or a weeks-long boat-trip to reach, and it's evidently across an ocean of some kind. In the comics, Genosha is usually off the southern tip of Africa. Likewise, the future seems to be astoundingly void of identifiers. The caves the future X-Men huddle in, the Sentinel camps, Master Mold's location... all in a generic futuristic wasteland which is probably North America. | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: Colossus appeared in the first episode as a team member, but never returned after the rest of the team was reunited. He was supposed to in Season 2, however. Later on, Gambit - we don't know what happened to him after Polaris sank the boat in which he was leaving Genosha. X-23. She had a voiceless cameo in 'Stolen Lives', body-guarding Professor Thorton as he made his escape, and four of her helped Wolverine in the future in the final episodes. Future Logan states that he found them in a Weapon X facility in stasis, but given that that future won't happen, four of her seems unlikely now. So, what happened to her? | |

Reed Richards Is Useless: Zig-zagged. After leaving the X-Men, Storm goes off to Africa, using her mutant powers to transform vast swathes of the country into working farmland. And then the minute the Shadow King attacks she drops all this and goes back to the X-Men, to be of no more use whatsoever. | |

Derailing Love Interests | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_8dc8a02d | comment |
Derailing Love Interests: This happens to both Jean Grey and Emma Frost. Jean actually gets derailed right from the pilot when she's shown berating her boyfriend Cyclops for getting into a fight with Wolverine over her, which naturally casts her in a negative light (although, The Reveal of what happened in the flashback casts her in a significantly more sympathetic one). Jean is then MIA for most of the season while Emma Frost is around, trying to see if she can maybe get Cyclops on her side by being at least somewhat more sympathetic towards him (more so than most of the other X-Men anyway), only to get blown up for her trouble at the end of the series, leaving Jean to have Cyclops all to herself. Not to mention Cyclops, who gets a total hatchet job in favor of Wolverine. | |

Laser-Guided Karma: In "Hindsight, Part 1", a camper calls MRD about Wolverine, and then rats out on his neighbors just for showing kindness to him for saving their daughter. His RV ends up getting smashed by a MRD helicopter, thanks to Wolverine. Emma Frost forcing a kiss on an unconscious Cyclops gets her violently tied down when Jean catches her in the act. Nick Fury outright states that he intends to use whoever he wants as expendable assets as he see's fit and has no compunctions about doing so. Cue Wolverine siccing an enraged Hulk on him. | |

Emma Frost. Just like Magneto, she used to be one hell of a foe (even being Big Bad of New Mutants for a time) but comic fans know that that was a long time ago, at least in the main Marvel Universe. In this show, she's The Mole and still the White Queen of the Hellfire Club. However, she does sacrifice her life to contain the Phoenix in the series finale. | |

Karma Houdini | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: Many examples, given how the show got cancelled. The Brotherhood of Mutants ultimately get away without any comeuppance for their crimes. However, given how they were Magneto's shock troops, they took a lot of crap before the show ended. Weapon X ultimately fails to keep a hold of Maverick, but they and Sabretooth are free men by the end of it. While the Stepford Cuckoos are probably in custody, the Inner Circle is still at large. Probably the most annoying example is Sinister. He doesn't receive any comeuppance despite all the torment he put Cyclops, Angel, and Jean Grey through. Owing to the show's cancellation, he gets to be Co-Dragons with Cyclops to Apocalypse in a new Bad Future and that's the last we see of him. | |

Ms. Fanservice: Emma Frost, whose costume design has gone completely unchanged from one of her comic book counterpart’s design. And considering how she usually dresses... they sure were lucky for being able to do so. Scarlet Witch is a very beautiful brunette who wears a skin-tight costume that has a corset. Jean Grey also gets a little bit of this when she gets an off camera wardrobe upgrade from her regular attire to a spiffy red dress. Mystique also fares well in this department. | |

Truer to the Text: While the series may have had some flaws as well as the cases of Adaptation Distillation, Adaptational Heroism, Adaptational Villainy, Adaptational Wimp, Composite Character, Demoted to Extra, and Not as You Know Them, Wolverine and the X-Men is much more faithful to the source material than one of it's predecessors and the live action film series combined mainly through the fact that it faithfully adapted storylines from the comics (such as the The Phoenix Saga, The Days of Future Past, etc. The series would have adapted the Age of Apocalypse storyline if not for its cancellation) and used a premise that was identical to the source material. The series also portrayed the characters that were inaccurate to their comic book counterparts in both Evolution and the film series as being much more accurate to their comic book counterparts in the terms of their names, powers, physical appearances (as well their costumes), origins, motivations, alignments, and primarily the groups that they were associated with (for example, the characters, such as Magneto, Scarlet Witch, Gambit, etc, featured in WATXM are much more faithful to their comic book counterparts than they were portrayed in the film series and Evolution). In fact, the show's faithfulness to the comics is almost identical to how X-Men: The Animated Series was very faithful to the comics to the point of which they had to give the additional credit to the original writers of the comics through the episodes. | |

Demoted to Extra: This happens to Storm of all people. She is a major character in the comics, one of the most recognizable members of the X-Men, and featured as one of the main cast members of nearly all the previous animated adaptations. In this adaptation, she's portrayed as a background character to give Wolvie a bigger role. In fact, there's no real reason for Storm's presence in this adaptation at all since she doesn't factor into any of the story lines and the episode where she rejoins the team has nothing to do with the overall plot. It's possible that the writers only threw her in because viewers are used to seeing her in the comics and other adaptations. To say nothing of Jean, who was reduced to nothing more than a plot device. | |

First Girl Wins: Thought that this would be the first Cyclops/Emma Frost coupling in animation? Ah-hah, no. Jean Grey turns out to be alive, and not only do she and Cyclops hook back up again, Emma Frost pulls a fatal Heroic Sacrifice to ensure it happens. | |

Why, one of your good friends is there to meet you and—oh, it's just Mystique in disguise. A terrified Jean was on the run from the MRD and gets cornered in a hospital. A nurse she knew finds her and assures Jean that everything will be okay. Then the fat bitch calls out the MRD agents to their location moments later. | |

Moral Event Horizon: An In-Universe example is seen when Magneto is revealed as having arranged for the Sentinels to be deployed against Genosha, planning on allowing them to slaughter thousands of Genoshan mutants before intervening, then taking control of them for use as a vanguard in a genocidal war on baseline humans. His own daughters, Lorna/Polaris and Wanda/Scarlet Witch disown and banish him from Genosha for his crimes, and the X-men certainly don't take it any better. | |

Deus Exit Machina: Jean Grey and Charles Xavier suffering from comas inflicted to them from a bomb in the pilot episode during the shows run kept major plots from being resolved far too quickly with their all-powerful telekinesis and telepathy respectively. Future!Polaris traveling with Bishop and Xavier's group of mutants would have reduced the Sentinels from major threats to cannon fodder due to her magnetism powers, so she has to stay behind in the same episode she was introduced. Justified due to her being a total Broken Bird who is so mentally scarred she can't bring herself to actively fight Master Mold, and she's too powerful for the "Future X-men" to seriously consider dragging her along by force. | |

Corrupt Corporate Executive | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_cbe687ab | comment |
Corrupt Corporate Executive: Mojo, as usual, with his focus on kidnapping mutants to be victims/gladiators in his televised Blood Sports. Warren Worthington II (Warren Worthington III AKA Angel's father) finances senator Kelly's anti-mutant campaign platform, and provides the MRD's R&D and hardware as well; needless to say, his son disagrees vocally. Unfortunately, by the time he realizes he's being a gigantic dick, it's too little too late, both to stop the anti-mutant movement from becoming a viable political and paramilitary force on its own and to save his son from becoming Mister Sinister's brainwashed minion, leaving him with nothing but now cold and empty financial and material comforts and a mountain of regrets. Karma's a bitch sometimes. | |

Also, Bruce Banner has no idea who Wolverine is in WatXM, despite Wolverine being the reason for his two main Hulk-outs in the short and Wolvie first meeting Bruce Banner while he was Banner. | |

Loads and Loads of Characters: The X-Men cast in this series is large enough that some of them don't actually get anything to do. The series throws in villains and secondary characters so often that few of them get any buildup or development. Even some characters that are important to the plot aren't introduced until the very last minute (such as the Inner Circle, who don't appear until the last three-parter), or appear to have monumental importance for a single episode before being relegated to extras (Tildie). | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: In the Hulk episode, both Wolverine and Banner call shenanigans on Nick Fury for unleashing Hulk into the area in the first place. For his part, Fury defies their objections, maintaining that SHIELD doesn't answer to them and if Fury decides to continue to use them both for his own ends, they won't get two words on the subject. This is pretty much Jean's reaction to Cyclops zapping Wolverine after Wolverine hit on her without knowing she made the clawed one promise her he wouldn't fight Cyclops. Jean has this reaction towards Cyclops again in the series finale when he tries to take on the Phoenix - though that time she was trying to save his life. Pretty much everyone has this reaction towards Cyclops throughout the series, since people who lose their loved ones apparently don't deserve sympathy. | |

Zigzagged with Jean, who is just as powerful as her comic book counterpart, but gets the sadly usual treatment of existing solely for the sake of the threat of Dark Phoenix and is reduced to living MacGuffin. In one episode, the entire team of X-Men, except for Wolverine, are taken down in seconds by Silver Samurai and some ninjas. | |

Hypocrite | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: Wolverine chews out Cyclops for running off by himself to hunt for the missing Jean Grey amongst the cronies of Sinister and then the bad man himself instead of working with the team, and then goes off and does the exact same thing in the very next episode! This is repeatedly lampshaded, though, and Rogue straight up calls him out on it repeatedly. Jean Grey herself ultimately averts this. Her reaction to Cyclops losing it and blasting Wolverine in the back(hard enough to knock him over!) is pretty understandable, especially considering it was over a taunt and her being his girlfriend, he ought to know Wolvie doesn't have a shot. It also helps that she didn't know about the taunt, and that he didn't know about Wolverine's promise not to fight back. As for her reaction to Emma... making out with her unconscious boyfriend was several steps up from "she deserves better". Most people would be pretty darn pissed at Emma in her position... Xavier could also be considered this, at least in regards towards Cyclops. He pretty much ignored Cyclops's personal problems while always putting time aside for Wolverine. | |

What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?: Subverted in the episode where Nightcrawler saves a sinking ship with help from a bunch of mutants with marginal-seeming powers. Played straight with Marrow, if unintentionally. Hurling bone blades is pretty useless when you're fighting Giant Robots and smaller robots with a Healing Factor. She cracks a Sentinel's chest-laser lens in one episode and... that's about it. Even the one time one of her blades comes in handy, knocking Polaris' helmet off, it's Domino who uses it for that purpose and not Marrow herself. | |

Family-Friendly Firearms: Some episodes used lasers, though in episode 18 the Brotherhood are attacked with firearms that resemble, and sound like, real life weaponry. The trope is immediately played straight again though, as Toad is caught in a net. However, when you think about it this makes more sense as the MRD's purpose is mainly to capture and not to kill. Despite this, Quicksilver is able to scavenge a handgun and use it to cause a Sentinel to fall down to its destruction. | |

Composite Character: Arclight has the gender of the Age of Apocalypse character and hence is a male, but the powers of the classic Arclight and sports a Spear Counterpart's version of her costume. Toad is basically the Mainstream version with the Ultimate look. Warren Worthington II is a combination of Cameron Hodge (Corrupt Corporate Executive who funds several anti-Mutant programs and has Angel's wings amputated) and the movie version of Warren Worthington II (also funds Anti-Mutant program, such as a "cure" for mutants and believes what he did was best for his son, though in reality, was only serving himself; and realizes the error of his way, though in this case, it's too late to really do anything.) Mystique, who's a mix of Mystique as we know her, and Silver Fox, Wolverine's former love interest and fellow captive at Weapon X. Marrow appears in the Bad Future, where she befriends Rover the Sentinel and takes on the role of Tom Skylark in the comic book Bad Future Here Comes Tomorrow, only without the Technopathy that explained how Tom had made friends with a Sentinel. Instead, she was given it by Polaris. Master Mold is combined with Danger, the evil sentient A.I. from Joss Whedon's run. Because of this, Master Mold is depicted as a Gynoid. Silver Samurai is merged with Noburu Hideki, Mariko's fiance from the original Frank Miller Wolverine mini-series. This causes a bit of Squick, since Silver Samurai is Mariko's BROTHER in the original comics. | |

Calling the Old Man Out | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_e52a0409 | comment |
Warren Worthington II (Warren Worthington III AKA Angel's father) finances senator Kelly's anti-mutant campaign platform, and provides the MRD's R&D and hardware as well; needless to say, his son disagrees vocally. Unfortunately, by the time he realizes he's being a gigantic dick, it's too little too late, both to stop the anti-mutant movement from becoming a viable political and paramilitary force on its own and to save his son from becoming Mister Sinister's brainwashed minion, leaving him with nothing but now cold and empty financial and material comforts and a mountain of regrets. Karma's a bitch sometimes. | |

Goth: Domino's fashion style. She rocks the look. Nightcrawler's design here also has some Goth influence, but his personality couldn't be further from the stereotype. | |

The Load: Cyclops of all people is portrayed as this, even in flashbacks to his earlier years. Toad to the Brotherhood. He repeatedly gets captured and needing his teammates to break him out. They were actually going to let him rot in "Time Bomb" before he told them about Nitro. | |

The Mole | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_e70127 | comment |
The Mole: Emma Frost. After accidentally causing the explosion at the Xavier Institute, she stole Xavier's body so that she could buy her way onto the team and eventually have another chance to find Jean. Or more precisely, the Phoenix. Though she did have good intentions... Played with. Initially, Rogue looks like this in Hindsight Part 2. She pretends to join the Brotherhood, but is working with the X-Men against them. But this is all a ploy. She's really working with the Brotherhood to use the X-Men to help push the anti-mutant agenda, thus justifying further anti-human activities by the Brotherhood and pushing along the path to war. Later, in Battle Lines, Rogue reveals that all of that was part of her plan; she was on the X-Men's side all along. She read some disturbing things from Toad's mind, so she decided to hook up with them to keep an eye on them. She even tried to tell the X-Men about it once in a prior episode, but Logan wasn't there, which pissed her off enough to not bother. | |

Powered by a Forsaken Child: One of Magneto's schemes involves having Mystique place some kind of power amplifying device on Tildie Smoans, making her powers go completely out of control. Fortunately, Rogue is able to find and break the device. | |

Despite what she had done, Emma was never evil at all, and she was far from what you could call a villain. Everything she had done was in order to save the world from the Phoenix Force. Too bad the rest of the Inner Circle Club has other plans... | |

Undying Loyalty | |
| Wolverine and the X-Men / int_f16da697 | comment |
Undying Loyalty: Toad stands by the Brotherhood, no matter what. Even during the aforementioned battle with the Sentinels, he stayed with them. And also Quicksilver, to Magneto, even as Magneto outright tells him to his face that he considers Quicksilver a bungling incompetent and the Scarlet Witch and Polaris desert him in the series finale. And of course, Cyclops with his seemingly indestructible determination to hold out hope for Jean Grey's eventual return. | |

Everything she had done was in order to save the world from the Phoenix Force. Too bad the rest of the Inner Circle Club has other plans... Senator Kelly and Magneto, on opposite sides of the mutant conflict and both convinced the other will be the one to start the war. Strangely enough, this does not stop them from working together on occasion albeit with the intention of stabbing the other in the back eventually. | |
