If you’ve been following ComicsAlliance for the last few months, you’ll know that we are somewhat fascinated by the ’90s X-Men cartoon. It was an important moment for Marvel, as the show introduced many kids to both the X-Men and the Marvel universe. In the process the show helped create a new generation of fans, including Saturday Night Live star Taran Killam. On hand at New York Comic Con to promote The Illegitimates, the comic he created with writer Marc Andreyko, Killam made a guest appearance at the Marvel booth, where he recreated the pilot episode of the show while playing every character. His Gambit is appropriately creepy, his Cyclops is appropriately dickish, and his Jubilee recreates the weirdest rhetorical question we have ever heard anyone ask. It’s pretty great.
Seriously, though: Does a mall babe eat chili fries? I feel like the answer to that was supposed to be obvious, but it really, really isn’t.
