X-Men is Babylon 5
Logan managed to point out several similarities between Babylon 5 and the X-Men. Apocalypse was the inspiration for both the Shadow philosophy and the planet Za’Ha’Dum. Clearly the Shi’ar were a massive fashion influence on the Centauri. Although it’s interesting that Lillandra and Xavier gender swapped the hair.

It was you Londo all along
