In X-Men ’97 season 2 episode 5, Wolverine gathers the old squad known as Team X. The group is tied to Logan’s secret past and to the Weapon X program that transformed him into an adamantium-bonded super-soldier.
In Marvel Comics, Team X was a covert black-ops unit connected to the CIA and Weapon Plus. Its members included Wolverine, Sabretooth, Maverick, Silver Fox, Mastodon, Kestrel, Wildcat, Vole, and Major Arthur Barrington, although versions of the lineup vary across adaptations.
The episode uses the reunion to turn Wolverine’s personal history into an active mission. Instead of confronting Weapon X alone, Logan returns to people who knew him before and during his life as a programmed operative. That makes the team both a tactical resource and a source of unresolved betrayal.
The other options are established Marvel teams but do not fit this episode. Alpha Flight is a Canadian superhero team, X-Force is a mutant strike team, and X-Factor has had several incarnations, including a government-sponsored group.
