RIP. Always liked Carl Weathers; great villain then ally with Apollo Creed. Dillon an essential part of the epicness that Predator will always be.

I actually would have called it "Deadpool Saves the MCU" but no complaints

And why not have Mobius as the TVA agent? Maybe saving him for a nice surprise appearance?

I think they'll be plenty of surprise appearances, no point spoiling them in February.

Any X-Men team without Colossus is lacking for me...

Was he a part of the original run of this? I didn't watch it I was 18 or 19 when it first stated airing, I was too cool for cartoons by then (yet was still buying comic books lol)

I wonder if they will have appearances by other members.
That was pretty common with previous versions of the cartoon properties.

I'm sure they will throw in as many guest Mutant appearances as they possibly can

Not wrestling related, but Coelacanths are not the only living fossils. We can also count Gars in that category. A very cool article (YMMV) in my humble opinion.

It's been a long time since I watched the original series and I don't remember her appearing.

I recently rewatched it and she wasn't on it.

RIP. SCTV is my favorite comedy show of all time. Loved the "Sammy Maudlin Show" sketches, excellent satire of how smarmy and phony the entertainment business can be. Plus Guy Cabellero, Count Floyd/Floyd Robertson, Big Jim McBob he played many of their classic characters and did some fantastic impersonations
