Yes, they still didn't mention Hellcow. I guess a 17th century swiss cow that got bitten by Dracula and turned into a vampire and now occasionally teams up with Deadpool isn't weird enough.
She's smart, too. She gets openly pissed at DP for indulging a torn-comic-book-page time loop in which she burns to death in sunlight and he keeps eating the "delicious" roast beef. Even though she can only moo, when DP finally breaks the loop her expression makes it clear their team-up is officially over. Also she wears a vampire cape.
Yeah DP finds all the weirdest allies. He could literally build most them into an army... Then again, he ALSO knows personally and has worked with some the most powerful, dangerous and heavy hitters like himself too
@@robertagu5533 The funniest part is: Hellcow is already part of the MCU (atleast as long as you consider Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. part of the MCU). In Season 2 episode 5 there is a short dialogue between Simmons and a Hydra scientist: "What kind of hellcow gives carmine milk?"- "I don't know, file just sais Bessie." I am rewatching old episodes on Disney+ and seem to have missed this the first time I saw that episode.
@@Firebug909 yeah.. that'd be funny if Cobra Commander, the ACTUAL one did that an it was a reformed him.. but then again, some the best, most powerful, and legendary heroes were once ALSO the worst of, and most legendary, villains too
@@heroecolapso2831 Well Robo-cop and Judge Dredd are both publicly recognized as law enforcement. Dredd is (in-universe) the equivalent of Captain America in that he's the most well known and looked up to of all the Judges. Robo-cop(or Officer Murphy) is a beat cop who nearly died in the line of duty, then got turned into a cyborg to save his life. Then he goes back to doing police stuff. The flaw with Americop's design is that he's basically a cop who went rogue and tries to fight crime outside the law. One trope in comics is how prisons seemingly never hold anyone. Good guys catch bad guy, he goes to jail, somehow gets out shortly after. Basically he thinks the law is too soft. He's more of an anti-hero than anything else.
So I was curious too, he applied for the gla accidentally and when they found out he had no powers they booted him. He came back dressed as bondage Dr Doom ( literally, he saw Doom fighting the FF and copped his style) and killed some guy named Monkey Joe and Immortal Man (he got better) then Big Bertha sat on him. Oh and his name is Leather Boy.
Captain Confederacy isn't technically Marvel - it was published by Steeldragon Press in 1986. Marvel Epic published the 2nd one, which was a total different person in a different setting.
It was also a very well written alternate world story, beginning with the premise that superheroics on the world was akin to pro wrestling, except kayfabe was maintained and the guys had real powers.. But the endings were predetermined and the good guy always won.
Not a totally different setting, the same alternate-history setting a year or so later, when a different Captain Confederacy (a black woman with a white male sidekick, no less) had taken the place of the original white male CC.
And even Epic wasn't really Marvel--they did use some Marvel characters at times, but it was also the first time Marvel or DC had fully creator-owned comics, so Marvel never had the rights to use Captain Confederacy outside of the creator's control.

The original 4-issue "Slapstick" series is one of my favorite things to have ever come out of Marvel comics. My mother started driving me to comic book stores just to hear me laugh when the new issue came out. I consider him as one of my favorite 3 characters in Marvel's history -- especially as he appeared in those first 4 issues then again in "That's Not Funny." The anti-hero days weren't entirely to my liking, sadly.
Free Spirit actually WAS a sidekick to Cap for awhile, right along with Jack Flag, when the super soldier serum was breaking down Cap's body and he had to wear the exosuit that Iron Man designed for him.
1:19 Debrii worked with Cap's Secret Avengers during _Civil War,_ meaning she was an unregistered hero fighting against the SHRA. The image used is from the _Secret Avengers_ comic, where Cap (as the "top cop") puts together sort of the Avengers version of X-Force. 8. Excuse me, but you think I don't know about *Hepzibah* !? Starjammers is the "X-Men" animated series I've wanted for a while now. 4. I learned about the existence of *Beautiful Dreamer* from the woefully underrated show, _Gifted._
I had never heard of Dina before, and now I can honestly say she freaks me out. She looks like one very bizarrely pink, and way too humanoid xenomorph that had a bat for a host, and that is super creepy.
Yeah she's got that creepy look but as a character was pretty sympathetic. Not only is she the only known alien of her race but no one can understand her language except for Mr. Immortal.
Other people have brought them up, but since you used a few, you really should have just used the entire Great Lakes Avengers team on this list. They deserve all the talk they can get.
Possibly. The problem with Slapstick was, his title could never truly find a target audience. His comic was too goofy to appeal to fans of mainstream Marvel, but too serious to be a parody title. In the end, he was a concept that just didn't catch on.
Beautiful Dreamer is such a tragic character. She literally only wanted to live a peaceful life, but her ultimate fate was to be kidnapped, and used like a tool to end the lives of hundreds of others, before being killed by the Legacy Virus. That's so messed up.
@@calamitycruz4614 and this is a Marvel list, hence the inclusion of Flatman over The Elongated Man... I figured that'd be obvious without me having to spell it out.
Honestly WhatCulture helps a huge deal when it comes to comic reasearch. Wonder if you can do one recognizing sad tragic characters who just has bad luck... like Eddie Brock
Not a Marvel hero, but DC's Legion of Superheroes once interviewed a hero call 'Arm-Fall-Off-Boy', whose power is exactly what the name says it is. He can detach and reattach his own arms .. and that's pretty much it. Actually, the Legion has a hole cadre of substitute heroes whose powers are... questionable. Color Kid, for example, has the power to change the color of any object, but he eventually learned how to use that to camouflage himself, so it's not totally useless.
"All we know about her (Dinah Saur) is that she's a huge, pink dinosaur." I mean, she's certainly not huge as far as dinosaurs are concerned, and she looks to be modeled off pterosaurs, which weren't actually dinosaurs. But she is pink! 1 out of 3 ain't bad!
The Americops made a comeback as a group when Falcon became Captain America. They were owned by a corrupt Senator who would use them to harass poor, usually black residents out of a neighborhood, lowering the property values until he could snap them up and gentrify them. I always thought they’d make great cannon fodder in the Falcon and the Winter Soldier show, but they would be too politically charged for a vocal minority. You know who...
Yeah was gonna say the GLA was around for a good 15 years or so before their mini series. One of my favorite less popular groups and excellent when in the mood for comedy.
Because they don't actually do very many obscure characters. Like... why is the ENTIRE CAST OF X-STATIX not here? :p Every character had a tragic origin, bizarre motives, powers that caused them harm, or a gruesome fate... sometimes more than one of the above.
Beak was usually a well-written character. From X-Men to Exiles he was just a guy who got the short end of the mutation stick and eventually made the best of it.
Domino for me. I think DP2 nailed how I first reacted when I heard of her, too "being lucky isn't a super power" until you see her in action. She's great. I'm also a big SG fan, I love how she is like a parody of silver age comics, and how she has the power over the narrative (similar to deadpool) only she's not self aware. Also her powers are really cute. I think maybe you need some comic knowledge to get the character though.. also she beat thanos with an acorn :D PS: by "power over the narrative" I mean that it's written that she can't loose, so she can't. she's like a walking deus ex machina. I guess you might call it "plot armour" or something?
Your comments on Dinah Soar are a little misleading. Dinah Soar first appeared in West Coast Avengers in 1989, then died much later in GLA: Misassembled in 2005... So she was in the comics for a quite a while.
I thought that the Americops were villains posing as heroes. I never even know that there was an original one but he looks more like an Punisher 2099 character but then again a 2099 version of the character would be a cyborg created from the remains of dead soldiers and cops and even more extream than the originals. But Captain Confederacy just imagine the amalgamation of those two characters. Captain Confedercop or even worse the Confedercops.
I was soooooooooooooooooooo ready to come down here with my pedantry talkin noise about "ooh shut up 'YOU WON'T BELIEVE', of course I'll believe it, it's comics" .........then he said maggot And as much as I'd like to make a Slipknot fanboi comment........... You win. Like, of course I still believe it. But that's def about as close to "I don't believe it" as I think you could possibly get. You win this round ......sorry, WTF...?!? He...... Is a host to two maggots that burst out, eat, then recede inside him and somehow give him superpowers when and only when they're fed.........? ........................dude........... .....wut
I think they can introduce debrii in mcu movies because in scene in ragnarok you can see in the first scene thor had conversation with valkyrie in the vayt debris there..
Maybe she's a human who looks like a pink dino? There's an entire village of Savage Land Mutates that look like winged dino-saur people. Also allegedly she was a JLA member for 4 years? Hmm the wiki says: First Appearance: West Coast Avengers Vol 2 #46 (July, 1989) Appearance of Death : G.L.A. #1 (June, 2005) So the character was actually around for 16 years before dying apparently?
@@marhawkman303 Yeah, but that means Mr. Immortal has the opportunity to be a player amongst the dino-girls going from one sexual relationship to another leading eventually to him having a slew of dino-baby mamma's all wanting child support from a relatively unpopular super hero baby daddy.
