Rich Fann and WH Park discuss X-Men ‘97 Season 2 Episode 6: “Danger.exe”, a villain-of-the-week “bottle episode” that proves to be so much more.
Danger is on the menu as two of the last people in the X-verse you’d want handling tech, Charles Xavier and Hank McCoy, team up to create a new evolution in artificial intelligence.
Rich & WH discuss Danger’s problematic origins, the ramifications of her arrival in the ‘97 universe, the ongoing complications of family ties, and the lessons in this chapter.
Plus, a quick chat on DC’s Clayface, a deeper look at San Diego Comic-Con, THAT Avengers: Doomsday trailer, and, as always, comments and thoughts from the POST forums.
