Adventures of the X-Men

[michael herko]

Just wanted to ask about your mention of Wildchild in Adventures of the X-men (1996) 5 and 6. I do have both issues and have gone back numerous times to look for him in the issues (with no success). I've also checked over at Comic Vine which lists the characters seen within each issue. They don't have Wilchild listed either. Where in the issues is Widchild?

otherMichael,
Hello, and welcome.

I think the trouble here is that Wildchild showed up in the episode of the animated series that the issues are based on, but not in the issue.

My notes indicate Adventures of the X-Men #5 and #6 don't have Wild Child. I think the appearances list has a tiny error. Phil, can we make an adjustment to http://alphaflight.net/showthread.php?2995-A ?

No problem, we can solve that.
Again, another mistake carried over from pre-internet lists.

Strangely enough they're nothing to do with the animated series and were in-continuity.
#1-2 had Wildchild in, as part of X-Factor at the time.

The similarly named "X-Men Adventures" is the title associated with the animated series.

Ah, thanks. That's what confused me.

Yeah, checking the original files it lists them as unconfirmed, but I guess that got lost in the mix going from site to site and format to format.
Cheers for letting us know Michael.
