Canceled Too Soon #123 - Generation X (1996)

Our MARVELOUS MONTH OF MARVELS turned tragic this week, so we begin our episode with a eulogy for Stan Lee, the co-creator of most of our most beloved Marvel comics characters, and eventually created a multimedia empire. But along that journey to box office billions there many missteps, and boy howdy, was GENERATION X one of them.

This failed pilot for a live-action, teen-oriented X-MEN primetime series was a gaudy fiasco that has more in common with Batman begins than the GENERATION X comic books, and it never made it past the pilot episode.

But was it really... CANCELED TOO SOON? William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold walk you through this weird mish-mash of 1990s hipness on the latest episode, as chosen by our Patreon subscribers!
