SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Marvel Studios Animation has already revealed how the heartbreaking ending of X-Men '97 episode 5, "Remember It," can be reversed, thanks to one time-traveling cameo. X-Men '97, set outside the main timeline of the MCU, brought back many fan-favorite mutant heroes from X-Men: The Animated Series, continuing their story roughly a year after Professor X's departure in the original show's finale.
Related X-Men '97 Creator Explains THAT Devastating Ending So Perfectly It Makes The Tragedy Even Better X-Men '97's new devastating episode should go down as one of Marvel's greatest episodes, and creator Beau DeMayo just made it even better. X-Men ’97 Episode 5 Killed Off Gambit & Magneto Close While there were many mutants taken out by the looming Sentinel in X-Men '97 episode 5, the episode also marked the end of the line for two prominent members of the X-Men.
Cable’s Appearance In X-Men ’97 Episode 5 Foreshadows Him Changing The Past Seconds before the attack on Genosha commenced, Cable made his first X-Men '97 appearance, having traveled back in time to Genosha. Meeting his biological mother, Madelyne Pryor, Cable presumably wanted to warn the mutant inhabitants of Genosha about the impending attack, suggesting that he is set on reversing the tragedy.
There would have been very little reason for Cable to appear in the moments before the Sentinel's attack on Genosha if he wasn't trying to change the past. Cable's ability to travel through time makes this possible, and since X-Men '97 has already been putting attention on Cable's origin story, being the child of Scott Summers and Madelyne Pryor, though also being connected to Jean Grey, it's likely he'll have a bigger role in X-Men '97's upcoming episodes.
