In an engaging episode of 'Charlie and Steve Watch Stuff', hosts Steve Selnick and Charlie Peppers are joined by Robyn Warren of GeekGirlStrong to dissect X-Men '97's newest episode, 'LifeDeath - Part Two'.

The Trio explores the intricate narrative involving Storm's self-discovery, her fight against The Adversary, and her dynamics with Forge, alongside Charles Xavier's ethical dilemmas in the Shi'ar empire and the revelation of [SPOILERS] as the main antagonist. The episode further touches on the episode's encapsulation of empowerment, representation, and the impact of cataclysmic events on society, mirroring pre and post-9/11 themes.

Concluding with a critique that suggests a desire for improved pacing and deeper character exploration, the hosts unanimously appreciate the episode, albeit noting its crowded plotlines. This discussion not only reviews 'Life Death Part Two' but also sets the stage for what could be coming with the final four episodes of the season.
