The end of October marked the 25th anniversary of the beloved 90's cartoon "X-Men: The Animated Series." To celebrate the milestone, the series' showrunner Eric Lewald, wrote a book titled "Previously on X-Men, The Making of an Animated Series." The book recounts the journey of how the show came together and became as beloved as it is today during a time where the industry did not quite understand how big comic book adaptations could be.

In an interview with Syfy Wire, Lewald shared one potential storyline he had in mind for season 6, had the show been renewed for one more year. He admitted that he never really thought about it throughout these years, and explained how the show's fifth and final season ended with a dying Charles Xavier being taken to space by Lilandra, where she could maintain his body. However, Charles being taken away to space seemed like he would be away from his X-Men forever.

"It's like a death," said Lewald.

Lewald went on to what he thought about for season 6. He said that it could take place months after Charles Xavier heads off to space and the X-Men are unorganized. Some of the members are gone, while the others are still at odds with each other because they have no leader, and no one to look up to. This leads them to assemble once again for Charles' sake as they are called and transported to Lilandra's world where they are experiencing some trouble.

"Somehow they are called to - and transported to - an existential crisis on Lilandra's distant world. The team grudgingly reunited 'for Charles,' heads off to space, solves the crisis," explained Lewald.

However, Lewald revealed that there could be two outcomes to that storyline. A somewhat healed Charles Xavier may or may not be able to return to Earth with them. Whether he can or cannot, his actions will heal the team's wounds and they could come back to Earth as the X-Men that they were known to be.

After five seasons, "X-Men: The Animated Series" was cancelled in 1997, which was three years before the first live-action X-Men movie premiered in 2000. Months after Bryan Singer's film adaptation, another animated series premiered on the small screen on WB Kids, titled "X-Men: Evolution" which saw the iconic mutants as teenagers and served as a somewhat successor to the popular 90's series. While the chances of having a sixth season of the beloved cartoon or even reviving the cartoon itself for one more season are slim, fans can only imagine how this cosmic storyline can play out.
