Background
"No Mutant Is An Island" was originally intended to air in Season 3 after "The Phoenix Saga" and before "Savage Land, Strange Heart." However, due to animation problems it was delayed two years while a different company animated it again from scratch.

The "Beyond Good And Evil" story arc was originally meant to be the ending of the series. However, FOX bought a few more episodes at the last minute. The original animation studio, Graz Entertainment, went bankrupt. The final six episodes feature a different animation style, the work being done by Saban.
