Wolverine time-hopping while his past keeps ghosting him? Chaotic king behavior.
Wolverine and the X-Men race through time to regain control of their destiny in Volume 4: Fate of the Future. Evil attempts to rewrite the past, and the mutant heroes must prevent a perilous future in these five time-bending episodes. History repeats itself when Wolverine's past resurfaces, forcing him to repay old debts in "Stolen Lives." In "Code of Conduct," Wolverine's history returns again when the X-Men are threatened by the Silver Samurai who challenges the adamantine hero to another duel. In "Badlands," Logan's captivity helps spawn a new breed of Sentinels to terrorize the future. And before Mojo rips their friendship apart, Nightcrawler struggles to convince a brainwashed Wolverine of their lost days together in "Hunting Grounds." Finally, in "Backlash," when Wolverine learns that Master Mold is the same nemesis for tomorrow's X-Men, he must protect his fellow mutants before the future becomes obsolete.
Production
That sleek 2008 Nicktoons aesthetic hits different now
Writing
Time travel rules that make absolutely zero sense but commit hard
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This 'movie' is literally five episodes of the 2008 animated series stitched together with new bumpers—a classic Marvel home video cash grab.
This series quietly built the template for animated X-Men storytelling that 'X-Men '97' would later perfect, including that specific brand of Wolverine emotional repression.
