I plan on rewatching the first two episodes but my initial impressions are mostly positive. The first episode was ok outside of the best action sequences but the second episode planted seeds for interesting future storylines. I remain cautiously optimistic about the show’s prospects.

Lastly, I’m not really digging Magneto’s outfit in the show. The classic suit is one of the best suits from superhero comics in my opinion. I don’t understand why his suit is new and different and the rest of the characters suits are essentially the same as the original 90’s show.
