Or, at least, give my take on what'll happen next following the episode's emotionally devastating finale and end-credits scene.

You don't take a extremely powerful arm -cannon blast to the chest one that completely obliterates you, no less from the immortal, super-mutant called Apocalypse and live to tell the tale.

That said, comic book character deaths are never permanent. Indeed, whether it's on the page, or in a movie or TV adaptation, superpowered beings have always been brought back to life via time travel or multiverse shenanigans.

While Magneto certainly perished at the hands of Apocalypse in X-Men 97 's latest installment, then, it's incredibly unlikely that he'll be gone for good. He's too popular and important a character to kill off, especially in this Disney+ animated series, so I'll be extremely shocked if the metal manipulating mutant who goes by the name Erik Magnus Lehnsherr never returns.

Does X-Men 97 season 2 episode 4 have an end credits scene? Good to see you again, bub (Image credit: Marvel Animation/Disney+) Yes and it sets up the storyline that'll see James 'Logan' Howlett, aka Wolverine, get his adamantium skeleton back.

Remember, in season 1 episode 8 of this Marvel Cinematic Universe ( MCU ) adjacent project, Wolverine had the indestructible metal ripped from his body by Magneto. And, while Logan survived that ordeal thanks to his self-healing ability, he's since had to make do with using his brittle bone claws to
attack his foes.

Logan won't have to do that for much longer, though. In a mid-credits scene, we see Wolverine meet Captain America and Black Widow on a rooftop. After
some brief small talk, Cap hands a top secret file to Logan that bears the name 'Weapon X'. What to read next Invincible season 4 episode 7 ending explained: who dies in the show's latest chapter? Daredevil: Born Again

However, for those unfamiliar with Weapon X: essentially, it's the name of a clandestine US government research facility and military program that turned unwilling individuals into living weapons with the view to conducting covert missions, such as assassinations. Wolverine, Deadpool, Sabretooth, and X-23 are counted among its rare success stories.

So, will Wolverine reacquire his adamantium skeleton in this Marvel Phase 6
TV series' next chapter? It's possible, especially as next week's entry is titled 'Weapon X, Lies, and DVDs'. But spoilers for the comics notwithstanding if X-Men 97 continues to follow and authentically adapt this specific storyline from its source material, this subplot might not be resolved until later in the season.

Do you think we'll see Magneto again? And when will Wolverine get his adamantium skeleton back? Let me know in the comments! Follow TechRadar on Google News and add us as a preferred source to get our expert news, reviews, and opinion in your feeds.
