X23

More animation excellence from Season 2
"Powers Revealed" continues the issuance of episodes from "X-Men: Evolution." This disc includes the following episodes from Season 2:

1) The Beast of Bayville - the episode describing how Hank McCoy joins the X-Men.

2) Adrift - Cyclops and his brother Havok are lost at sea.

3) On Angel's Wings - one of the best of the entire series, this special Christmas episode focuses on Warren Worthington III, and the X-Men's & Magneto's attempts to recruit him to their opposing sides.

4) African Storm - An African witch-doctor steals Storm's powers.

These eps are all great, but it would be nice if Warner Bros. would just release these shows by the season, as opposed to four eps to a disc.

Finally! A full season's worth of episodes!
X-Men - Evolution, the Complete 3rd Season, continues the adventures of the teenage versions of the X-Men. Season 3's first episode, "Day of Recovery," picks up immediately where Season 2's "Day of Reckoning, Part 2" left off. After a frenetic battle with Magneto and the giant Sentinel robot and with mutanthood having been outed on the media, the X-Men must now deal with the aftermath of an Xavier's Institute in ruins and team members still being held captive in Area 51. Magneto is possibly dead and the X-Men have just discovered that Mystique had been posing as Professor X. Things have definitely taken a momentous turn as the X-kids now must deal with mutant bigotry by the public, and the hostility and prejudice of their "normal" high school peers. The Brotherhood of Mutants certainly don't aim to make things easy for their rivals. Events also lead to the return of the ancient, all-powerful mutant, Apokalypse. On a personal level, Scott and Jean become even more close, and Toad grows...

As for the special features -

Mutant Files - they're your standard issue who's who of the heroes and villains, and it's a run down of everyone. The watcher doesn't get to pick which character to look up, you get eveybody all at once.

X-posed - this is mostly about how they came up with X-23 and that it...
