On the Viewer - Wolverine and the X-Men (Episode 4 - "Overflow")
 by Fëanor

Woah, freaky opening. Guy apparently possessed, with totally black eyes, passes on his possession to another man.

Interesting. Wolverine gets a communique from the future that Storm is about to go crazy and destroy Africa! Sort of a Dark Phoenix storyline, but with Storm at the center of it instead of Jean. Also, they've got Emma in one of her skimpy costumes now, and good lord are her bosoms enormous. I just don't know.

Wolverine is a cruel man, cutting the Blackbird that Forge just fixed right in front of the kid's eyes like that. It's funny, though. Heh. But hey, why not bring Forge with them? In case they need some sudden repairs, or a crazy gadget or something?

Oh, man, this possession thing is moving its way towards Storm frighteningly fast!

I'd never heard of this Farouk the Shadow King before, but as always, Wikipedia is enlightening.

Well, there goes the Blackbird! Poor Forge.

Huh. That answers my question (from a previous episode review) about Emma's diamond form. She does indeed have that power already. Interesting. But hey, why has she not jumped into Storm's mind yet, found the Shadow King, and started fighting him?? Get to work, girl!

Oh, there she goes. Well. That's good then.

Yeah, a Shadow King-possessed Wolverine would not be good! That was pretty hot when Emma astral projected right in there and jumped his ass. Time for a crazy psychic battle! Ooh, she cut his head in half! Very nice. And after all that, all she gets from Logan is a smile and a nod. I guess that's the equivalent of a hearty "thank you" and a hug from a normal person, though.

And the X-Men collect another member. Good episode! A little cliche, but fun, with some exciting action. I wonder if Forge will have the Blackbird all fixed up again in time for next episode. Actually, I wonder how the X-Men got back home! It's not like they can just hop on an airplane without being noticed. Did they have to dredge up the Blackbird and fix it themselves to get back? We'll probably never know.
