Wolverine, Cyclops, and Hot Chicken: Inside the New Dave’s Hot Chicken X-Men ’97 Collaboration
Fuel your inner mutant with the Dave’s Hot Chicken X-Men meal. For $13.99, grab your chicken and a limited-edition character figure before they sell out.
The mutant era has officially arrived at your local chicken joint. To celebrate the highly anticipated Season 2 premiere of Marvel Animation’s X-Men ’97 on Disney+, Dave’s Hot Chicken is rolling out a massive collaboration that combines the heat of their signature Nashville-style hot chicken with Saturday morning nostalgia. Marvel fans can head to participating locations to snag the limited-time Dave’s Hot Chicken x X-Men ’97 Meal. Priced at $13.99, this special combo brings collectible culture straight to the menu, giving comic book lovers and foodies alike a chance to feast and collect simultaneously.
Dave’s Hot Chicken X-Men Meal: What’s Inside the Box?
When you order the special Dave’s Hot Chicken X-Men #4 Meal, you’ll get:
- Your choice of a Slider & Fries or Bites & Fries.
- One blind-bag collectible figurine featuring one of four legendary X-Men characters: Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm, or Jean Grey.
The fun doesn’t stop in the restaurant line, either. Fans who log into the Dave’s Hot Chicken app can unlock exclusive digital comic content and limited-edition pins while supplies last.
Built by Real Fans, for Real Fans
This isn’t just another corporate crossover. For the team at Dave’s, bringing the X-Men into the coop was deeply personal, leaning into a genuine love for the iconic animated universe rather than just chasing a trending hashtag.
“Dave’s has always been built by people who are genuinely passionate about the things they love, whether that’s food, music, sports, or pop culture,” said Arman Oganesyan, Co-Founder and Chief Brand Officer of Dave’s Hot Chicken. “X-Men was a huge part of my childhood, especially Wolverine, and what makes X-Men ’97 so special is that it stayed true to what fans loved about the original. That’s something we relate to at Dave’s; celebrating something our team genuinely loves and creating an experience fans will be excited to be part of.”
The timing couldn’t be better. With the new season streaming on Disney+, the collaboration offers a perfect way to bring the action off the screen and directly onto your plate.
“X-Men has always been about passionate fans, iconic characters, and bringing people together through great storytelling,” said Jim Bitticks, CEO of Dave’s Hot Chicken. “This collaboration lets us celebrate the return of X-Men ’97 in a way that’s uniquely Dave’s, through great food, collectibles, and an experience fans will want to share.”
How Long Will It Last?
The Dave’s Hot Chicken x X-Men ’97 Meal dropped earlier this month. Like any good comic variant cover, these blind bags are highly limited. The promotion will run only through sell-out, so if you want to complete the four-mutant squad, you better move fast/
