“In late 1992, on small budgets and under tight schedules, the cast and crew of X-Men: The Animated Series crafted a television show that, despite an industry full of naysayers, immediately shot to #1. This “kids’ show” often landed more than half the TV viewers across America, and a twenty-year gold rush of Marvel motion pictures and TV series followed.

The head writer interviewed 36 of the artists, writers, voice cast, and executives who helped make this game-changing series a worldwide success.
