For millions of kids the popular X-Men animated series from the 90s served as a kind of gateway drug into the world of the X-Men in particular and comics in general.

Now the story has been continued on Disney Plus, X-Men 97, picks up right where the original series ended with most of the same characters and many of the same voice actors.

But changes are taking place at Xavier's school for gifted youngsters, secrets get revealed, the team roster

gets shuffled, and beloved characters mean shocking fates.

What hasn't changed is everything fans expect from the X-Men, big fights, big powers, and lots and lots of mutant melodrama.

like Stony Pond Farm, where Tyler Webb and his family consider the earth, the animals, and the community in the stewardship of their farm.

This is a lecturer who's wandered up the lane to say hi. She is very curious. She's probably the most curious cow that we have.

Every one of those cows all has their own sort of unique attribute.

They are such peaceful docile creatures, you know and I say that that's my job is to wake up in this

beautiful place every day and wander around and try to figure out how to make it better.

Better for my cows, better for the land, better for the community, the overall ecology, and it's that it's that

stewardship which evolves from that patient observation I think.
