Continuity mistake: When Tony first wakes up after being knocked out by Crimson Dynamo, you can tell by the angle of the light on the ceiling and Crimson Dynamo and the clone of his father leaning over him that he is lying down. When the shot changes, he is shackled in an upright position. A couple of shots later, he is lying down again. (00:18:09)

Audio problem: When Nick Fury says "First of all, I'm sorry about the security system," his mouth isn't moving. (00:13:49)
23rd Dec 2020
Continuity mistake: When Tony walks in on his father talking to H.O.M.E.R, his father has a gold clip on his tie. When the shot changes, the clip is gone. (00:10:19)
23rd Dec 2020
Other mistake: This series is in the same continuity as the other Marvel animated series that aired around the same time - X-Men, Spider-Man, Iron Man, and The Incredible Hulk - by virtue of each aforementioned show crossing over with at least one of the others. However, the cameo appearance by Scarlet Spider in this episode creates a contradiction with Spider-Man, as in that series, Scarlet Spider was an alternate - and possibly cloned - version of Spider-Man from a different reality, who never visited the reality that this and the other Marvel shows take place in.

Trivia: When Dr. Doom is attacking Mr. Fantastic, there is a portrait of a nude woman on the wall that somehow made it past the network censors. (00:16:11)
23rd Dec 2020
Trivia: When Johnny and Rick Jones are taking the air-cycle out for a spin, the following Marvel characters make a cameo appearance: the Scarlet Spider, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Gambit, Wolverine, Storm, and Juggernaut. Additionally, the Juggernaut is shown with his hand emerging out of the New York Harbor, which alludes to his previous appearance in X-Men, where he was thrown out into the ocean by Gladiator near Cassidy Keep in Ireland in the season 3 episode "The Phoenix Saga, Part 3: The Cry of the Banshee," and seemingly walked all the way back to New York from the ocean floor for his next appearance in the episode "Juggernaut Returns." (00:09:31)
23rd Dec 2020
Other mistake: When Dr. Doom's attendant is removing the wrapping from his left hand, in the first shot, he is simply holding onto the wrapping and moving his hand back and forth. (00:05:42)

The Unstoppable Juggernaut - S1-E8
Other mistake: When Wolverine is searching for clues as to who destroyed the mansion, he clears out some rubble to reveal two of Juggernaut's footprints. Given that the Juggernaut tore down the entire mansion, his footprints should be everywhere, not just in one spot. (00:04:10)

The Unstoppable Juggernaut - S1-E8
Continuity mistake: When Xavier's message begins playing, Jubilee is sitting down, and Storm and Rogue are standing side by side. When the shot changes, Jubilee is standing up, and Storm is now in front of Rogue. (00:03:46)

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1
Other mistake: When Gambit is attempting to kiss Rogue at the wedding, the man standing over Gambit's right shoulder has no face. (00:04:03)

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1
Trivia: During Cyclops and Jean Grey's wedding ceremony, a man can be seen standing next to Storm, and after the nuptials can be seen standing in the background after Rogue rejects Gambit's attempt to kiss her. According to the book "X-Men: The Art and Making of the Animated Series," this character is intended to be Doctor Strange. The book also reveals that a character model was drawn for J. Jonah Jameson to be at wedding as well. However, he didn't make it into the episode. (00:02:55 - 00:04:09)
23rd Dec 2020
Trivia: According to the book "Previously on X-Men: The Making of an Animated Series," this episode was originally conceived as an episode called "Bring Me Charles Xavier" (a reference to the film Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia), and would have been the 47th episode of the series overall. In addition to the return of Omega Red, it also would have seen the returns of Colossus and his little sister Ilyana, as well as Darkstar. The episode was written by showrunner Eric Lewald, and after being told numerous times by his colleagues that the script just didn't work, he reworked it into what became this episode. An image for the cast list of the unproduced episode is visible in the book "X-Men: The Art and Making of the Animated Series."

Prey of the Black Panther - S2-E7
Trivia: At the end of the episode, Thing calls Black Panther "Shere Khan." Shere Khan is the main antagonist, a tiger, from The Jungle Book. Thing likely meant to call him Bagheera, which is the name of the black panther from the same story, though this was probably deliberate on the part of the writers in order to make Thing look like a doofus. (00:21:16)
23rd Dec 2020
Trivia: According to the book "X-Men: The Art and Making of the Animated Series," the character of the External didn't have a counterpart established in the comics for the show's creators to base her on by the time this episode went into production, so director Larry Houston designed her himself, choosing to portray her as a Creole woman. The character's comic counterpart ended up debuting around the same time this episode aired, in Gambit #1, where she is a blonde Caucasian woman named Candra.

Prey of the Black Panther - S2-E7
Factual error: When Reed is looking at the radar image of Africa, he states the blip on the radar is in equatorial Africa. However, the blip appears around where Namibia is, which is more than 1,500 miles south of the equator. (00:05:54)
23rd Dec 2020
Prey of the Black Panther - S2-E7
Other mistake: When Reed is looking at Africa on his radar, the continent is too crudely drawn to be a legitimate radar image. (00:05:52)
23rd Dec 2020
Prey of the Black Panther - S2-E7
Factual error: When the intruder alarm goes off, the display reads "Intruder alarm roof top hanger." It should say "Rooftop hangar." (00:02:12)
23rd Dec 2020
To Battle the Living Planet - S2-E6
Factual error: The Moon is around 238,000 miles from Earth, but when the Fantastic Four go out into space to find Thor, the Moon is extremely close to Earth. (00:04:11)
23rd Dec 2020
Continuity mistake: When the X-Men are watching Johnny and Rick Jones fly overhead, Wolverine's jacket briefly changes color. Additionally, Gambit's eyes change from having white sclera with dark irises, to correctly being black sclera with red irises, and then back again. (00:09:33)
23rd Dec 2020
Continuity mistake: When Dr. Doom is attacking Reed, there is a window on each wall. When he throws Reed against the wall, and when Rick Jones pushes the medical contraption into Doom, the window is missing. When Doom stands up, the window is back in place. (00:16:11)
