Use Your Illusion Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 So two volumes were released today in the States, having to wait a few more weeks before Australia gets them. Did anyone pick them up? Any word on extras or how it looks overall? This definitely has to be one of the more anticipated cartoon superhero DVD releases, I'm looking forward to finally owning some of them on DVD.
Use Your Illusion Posted April 30, 2009 Author Report Posted April 30, 2009 http://www.marvel.com/news/moviestories.77...dot~_1_for_Free Just added to Marvel.com, first episode. Ah, Morph.
haws bah gawd Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 I was really hoping these would be released "Season style" as opposed to random episodes spread over 4 discs. Disc 1 of Volume 1 looks to be in airing order, but after that it looks like the discs kind of skip around. I'm disappointed about the lack of the 4-part time-traveling Apocalypse epic, and the (IMO) POWERFUL episode where Wolverine finds religion. I'll probably still pick these up, though. This was a great show way back, and I still catch it from time to time on Disney XD.
Use Your Illusion Posted April 30, 2009 Author Report Posted April 30, 2009 I have a feeling that, if these sell well, the season box sets will not be far behind. In saying that, I don't want these to fade into obscurity that I don't get the chance to have at least some episodes on DVD. I'll pay double, Marvel!

Masked Heel Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 I usted to love this show when I was a kid Fox saturday morning cartoons all the way
Anakin Flair Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 I want to know when the next volumes will be released. Despite being on the cover of Vol. 2, those discs DO NOT have the Dark Phoenix Saga, just the regular Phoenix Saga.
Frosty Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 What is the difference between the Dark Saga and the regular Saga?
SuperJerk Posted May 2, 2009 Report Posted May 2, 2009 The whole thing only lasted 5 episodes, didn't it? I remember really liking it until the cop-out ending.
Anakin Flair Posted May 2, 2009 Report Posted May 2, 2009 The regular Phoenix saga was the deal with the M'Kran crystal. The Dark Phoenix saga was... well, the Dark Phoenix Saga. Possibly the most faithful adaption the show did to the comics' storyline. Also- fun fact- the cartoon's Dark Phoenix saga ended almost exactly how the comic storyline was going to end, until the editor stepped in and said that Jean Grey must die.
