X-Men 97 has been a source of excitement for fans with its intriguing character dynamics and relationships. While most of the couples and love triangles in the series are quite evident, there is one particular relationship that has caught the attention of viewers - the unrequited crush of Morph on Wolverine.
Throughout the show, subtle hints were dropped regarding Morph's feelings for Wolverine, culminating in a scene where Morph transforms into a woman Wolverine loves to confess their romantic feelings. The series creator, Beau DeMayo, has confirmed that Morph indeed harbors romantic feelings for Wolverine, expressing them through this poignant moment.
However, the likelihood of this relationship evolving into something more is uncertain, given Wolverine's established history in the comics as being exclusively involved with women and portrayed as heterosexual, while Morph identifies as non-binary. Wolverine's son, Daken, is portrayed as bisexual in the comics, adding a layer of complexity to the character's relationships.
As the series progresses, the potential for Wolverine to reciprocate Morph's feelings remains to be seen, especially with the dynamic nature of Morph's abilities to transform into anyone. With Wolverine's current state in the series, recovering from Magneto's attack and possibly transitioning into his 'bone claw' persona, the narrative may take unexpected turns.
Despite the intriguing storyline between Morph and Wolverine, it is worth noting that the original creator of this plotline, Beau DeMayo, will not be returning for the second season of X-Men 97 due to undisclosed reasons. This development leaves the future of this particular narrative arc uncertain, adding an element of unpredictability to the series.
As fans eagerly anticipate the evolution of relationships within X-Men 97, including the dynamic between Morph and Wolverine, the show continues to captivate audiences with its engaging storytelling and character development. The intricate web of emotions and connections among the characters promises to deliver compelling narratives in the episodes to come.
