Viktor reviews the new movie, X-Men 3, and Tor also gives his impression. Although Sputnik has been following the X-Men since his earliest orbits, he has not been able to get to the theater to see the new movie. Viktor and Tor attempt to convince him it is worth seeing. Tank Riot looks at the characters and the actors, as well as the action and the plot. They like X-Men 3, however Viktor comments on a few things that could be better. He also compares directors Bryan Singer and Brett Ratner.
Sputnik and Viktor give the X-Men comic book history starting with its creation by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. They also discuss later X-Men comics including the Chris Claremont written ones.
No discussion of the X-Men would be complete without a good look at numerous mutants, good and bad. The Tank Team covers Cyclops, Beast, Mystique, Rogue, Iceman, Professor X, Magneto, Jean Grey, Storm, Angel, Juggernaut, Kitty Pryde, Nightcrawler, Wolverine and more!
They take a closer look at Juggernaut and "The Juggernaut Bitch" phenomenon as well the Juggernaut's battle with Shadowcat.
