The X-Men have been divided into small groups and thrown across time as “X-Men '97” Season 2 picks up. The season premieres on Wednesday, July 1, on Disney+, but whether every mutant in the team makes it back to the 1990s by the season’s end is not quite clear yet. Fans will just have to watch to learn the fate of Cyclops, Wolverine, Magneto, Rogue, Nightcrawler, and the rest of the team, but they can do so with a subscription to Disney+.

Season 1 of “X-Men ‘97” saw the X-Men scattered across time, and with few options for returning to the 1990s, where they belong. As they struggle to get back to their own time, they also must tangle with the rise of the team’s deadliest foe: Apocalypse, who rules with an iron fist through time.

Join Cyclops, Storm, Jean Grey, Cable, Archangel, Emma Frost, Psylocke, Polaris, and of course, Magneto and Wolverine as they battle to save mutant-kind from its most deadly enemies. But will they manage to keep peace with humanity in the process?
