X-Men '97's Jake Castorena explains how the show respects comics storylines.

X-Men '97 director Jake Castorena responded to some fan opinions that tries has been galloping along. The pacing of the Disney+ show has been a big topic of conversation on social media. ComicBook.com's Phase Zero podcast managed to ask about the wild number of comics storylines that have already been addressed in the show. It seems very fast. But, Castorena says that the pace is directly inherited from X-Men: The Animated Series .

"It had a lot more episodes to cover a lot more ground," he explained."But if you watch individual episodes and genuinely, I mean, the Phoenix Saga part one? How much they go through in just the first episode? It's like, 'Dang!' ln one episode, we understand that Gambit comes in from a night out while everybody's waking up from early in the morning. Then it just sends everybody off to space. Jubilee's stays at the base.

"The mission statement was, because by episode five, 'we're gonna challenge stuff' and hold a mirror. So, we had to know how that escalation would work. But, you can't escalate unless you know where you're starting from. Then, you know where you're going," the director concluded.
