Wolverine and the X-Men premiering January 23 on Nicktoons

The half-hour series Wolverine and the X-Men will finally make its US premiere on Nicktoons Network with back-to-back episodes on Friday, January 23, 8-9 pm.  Produced by Marvel Animation, Wolverine and the X-Men will air regularly Fridays at 8p.  The network also launches the new tie-in website, areyouamutant.com, on Tuesday, January 20, where fans can check their DNA for mutant genes, which will let them into the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters where they can visit various rooms, watch replays of the series, and play a game called Wolverine and the X-Men: Sentinel Slash.

Get those kids exposed to slash fiction while they’re young, I always say– then we can move them up to Hellfire Club costumes and really have some fun.

Additionally, content from the series will be available on TurboNick and via Nickelodeon’s wireless platforms.  The series will also have a dedicated category in Nick’s VOD offering from January 19.
