Out of the Past (1) - S3-E1

Trivia: Lady Deathstrike's outfit had to be slightly modified due to censorship issues. In the show she is wearing a white shirt under her vest. In the comics, the white shirt is not there, revealing a lot of cleavage. Obviously not acceptable for a kids' Saturday morning cartoon show. Director Larry Houston even stated that they deliberately drew her flat-chested in storyboards, because they knew her large breasts would be an issue. However, Philippine Animation Studio, Inc, who were hired to animate the episode, were supposedly huge fans of Marvel Comics and took it upon themselves to improve on the storyboards they were given, and animated her in such a way, that when she would turn, her breasts would follow through and settle. Houston claims he still has the raw VHS footage of this animation in storage.

Out of the Past (1) - S3-E1

Trivia: The basketball game between Gambit and Wolverine was inspired by X-Men, Volume 2 #4 which depicted a game of basketball featuring Gambit and Jubilee vs. Wolverine and Rogue (which Gambit dominated). Wolverine and Gambit's game attire is even the same they were wearing in the comic.

However, there were continual production quality problems, issues regarding whether the content was suitable enough for children, as well as financial considerations that finally led to it being ended.
