X-Men '97 continues with the storyline of the original X-Men: The Animated Series

X-Men '97 picks up where its predecessor left off, following the adventures of the X-Men in a world that both fears and hates mutants. With Professor X gone, the team faces unprecedented challenges as they navigate a landscape fraught with danger and uncertainty. The official synopsis for Season 1 sets the stage for the series, reads as follows, "The X-Men, a band of mutants who use their uncanny gifts to protect a world that hates and fears them, are challenged like never before, forced to face a dangerous and unexpected new future."

Creator Beau DeMayo, in his past interview, has hinted at a narrative that explores themes of empathy and understanding towards mutants, reflecting a shift in public perception following Professor X's assassination. “We’re gonna be picking up about several months after Professor X left Earth after being shot by Henry Gyrich and had to return to the Shi'ar homeworld to be with Lilandra. And what ends up happening is that assassination attempt has led to this wave of increased sympathy towards mutants and understanding,” DeMayo stated, as retrieved via Deadline.
