Marvel recently announced a new prequel comic book, X-Men '97: Season Two, to bridge the gap between the events of Seasons 1 and 2.

Fans can expect a shorter wait between Seasons 2 and 3 of X-Men '97, as Lenore Zann, the voice of Rogue in the series, confirmed that she would soon begin recording lines for Season 3. With a likely release window in 2027, just one year after Season 2, fans can anticipate more mutant adventures to come.
