X-Men lore can get complicated in a hurry, and it doesn’t get more complex than the Summers family tree. X-Men ‘97 hasn’t shied away from the inherent weirdness of Scott Summers and Jean Grey’s history, having introduced Jean’s clone, Madelyne Pryor, while also tracing the origins of Scott and Jean’s son, Nathan, who later grows up to be Cable. The time-traveling mercenary even gets to bond with his estranged parents, and while the Season 1 finale separates this unorthodox family once more, it also offers a trippy consolation prize for Scott and Jean.
