X-Men '97 season 2 premieres this summer, but you'll be able to return to the beloved series a little bit early with a comic book prequel that fills in some of the gaps between season 1 and season 2. The five issue limited series is written by Steve Foxe and drawn by Salvin Espa, the creative team of the first volume of the X-Men '97 comic that accompanied season 1.
The comic will directly set up X-Men '97 season 2, introducing some of the biggest plotlines and characters that will feature in the new season, including multiple new teams. In the end of season 1, most of the main team of X-Men were sent hurtling through time on a collision course with Apocalypse, while a few X-Men were left behind with no idea what happened to their teammates.
