In the episode, the team now led by Charles Xavier regroups and prepares to confront the two villains, Bastion and Magneto. To achieve this, the team receives new uniforms, as revealed in yesterday’s teaser. Nathan then gets his first blue and yellow uniform as a member of the team, but not before complaining about the colors. When he hears the question, Cyclops responds “What did you want? Black leather?”.
The joke, of course, references the uniforms from the 2000s trilogy, when mutants were brought to the cinema for the first time by Bryan Singer It is Brett Ratner. At the time, the Fox he preferred not to take risks with colors and gave the team black leather clothes with subtle colored details.
