X-Men Cartoon that NEVER WAS!

COMICS SCENE #11, VOL. 2 1983: “The proposed X-MEN show from Marvel almost made NBC’s schedule and would have featured Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Cyclops, Ariel, Lady Lightning (an animated version of Ms. Marvel which has been kicking around for years), Thunderbird (back from the dead and able to change into any animal-form) and Videoman. Also the action would have them as students at Professor X’s high school. The show was passed over in favor of more Smurf-like shows." 

 
Dork Note: Videoman (as a hero - in the two previous episodes he was a villain) was introduced in Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 3, Episode 3 - The Education of a Superhero. 

Dork Note: It's high time Marvel RE-INTRODUCE Videoman to the regular Marvel Universe! HAHAHA
