WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN: "GREETINGS FROM GENOSHA"
"Greetings from Genosha," a new episode of Wolverine and the X-Men, will premiere on Nicktoons on Friday night.
Here's how the network describes the episode:
"Nightcrawler makes it to Genosha, where he's welcomed with open arms by Magneto and Magneto's daughter, the Scarlet Witch. At first the island paradise seems to be the perfect haven for mutants, but Nightcrawler discovers that Genosha has a dark side. Now Nightcrawler must evade Magneto's mutant acolytes and figure out a way to get at warning to Wolverine and the X-Men."
The episode was written by Chris Yost and directed by Doug Murphy. Kate Higgins provides the voice of Scarlet Witch.
