But as the series wrapped, we couldn’t help but wonder… Will Marvel bring him back for more X-Men magic?
In what can only be described as a true masterstroke of storytelling, Beau DeMayo has wrapped up his run on Marvel’s X-Men ‘97 with a season finale that left fans in awe. In the last three-part episode, titled Tolerance is Extinction, fans can’t help but marvel at the genius of the X-Men ‘97 creator.
Who would not want more after witnessing such an impressive display of storytelling prowess? DeMayo himself confessed the emotional toll of penning particularly resonant scenes—especially those involving the iconic duo, Magneto and Xavier. Also, with social media abuzz, viewers echo a plea for Marvel to keep him aboard the creative team.
The animated show is a revival of the original X-Men series (X-Men: The Animated Series), but it is evident from the previous eight episodes that X-Men ‘97 is not willing to rely solely on nostalgia. It is clear that the new show is not just another notch in the series’ belt, but a masterful crescendo to DeMayo’s perfect run.
Emotional Farewell of Beau DeMayo from Marvel’s X-Men ‘97
As Beau DeMayo’s X-Men ‘97 continues to leave fans with sleepless nights because of its nostalgic throwback and fresh take on the beloved mutants, the ninth episode, Tolerance Is Extinction, delves deeper into the complex dynamic between Professor X & Magneto. The episode’s part two picks up with Magneto’s creation of his floating base, Asteroid M, setting the stage for a showdown between the two iconic characters.
The ongoing rivalry between Magneto and Professor X is at the heart of the X-Men franchise, and Tolerance is Extinction Part II brings this conflict to the forefront once again. While it was intriguing to see Magneto briefly align with Xavier in the previous episode, it’s clear that Magneto thrives as an antagonist, adding a chilling element to the series.
There will be a fierce confrontation as a result of this. Former X-Men ‘97 showrunner, DeMayo, has been actively sharing spoilers on social media lately, letting fans know what happens in the newest episodes and which older episodes they should rewatch.
The last episode was an emotional rollercoaster for both fans and the writer himself, with DeMayo admitting on X that it was a difficult episode to write, especially the scenes “involving Magneto and Xavier”.
But the real excitement comes in the form of the numerous Easter eggs sprinkled throughout the last episodes. From blink-and-you’ll-miss-it references to cameos from popular Marvel characters like Doctor Doom, Baron Zemo, Spider-Man, Silver Samurai, and Omega Red, there’s something for every fan to enjoy.
The Resonance of Beau DeMayo’s Work: A Case for His Return to Marvel
X-Men ‘97, a smart revival of X-Men: The Animated Series, has received high praise from critics. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 98% critic score, indicating that it is a widely accepted animated series.

Let’s have a look at a few comments left by fans via X:
Thus, with a stage set for a showdown between Magneto and Professor X, fans can expect a thrilling battle of ideals and ideologies in Tolerance is Extinction Part 3.
As we bid farewell to DeMayo’s incredible run on X-Men ‘97, we can only hope that Marvel will take note of the overwhelming fan response and bring him back for more. Until then, we can rewatch this perfect season finale and bask in the brilliance of DeMayo’s storytelling.
