Well, ladies and gentlemen, assuming I have an audience outside of my forms of nonfiction professor, this is a very special post. This post is special because it might be my last one. So, I figured what better way to end my blog than talk about a character that only ten people have heard of:Continue reading “He’s so Bad!”

A Real Spider Slayer
Previously I’ve talked about Marvel characters that have a chance of appearing in their own media, at least in some regard. Most of them are pretty cool in some respect, and this guy’s no different… Except I’ll never expect him to appear in a movie. Now, he’s actually a more recent character, so his backstoryContinue reading “A Real Spider Slayer”
Mad Woman
Okay, so this is a weird one. You probably already know about Hulk and She-Hulk, they’re very well-known characters. She-Hulk actually has her own television series coming to Disney+ (date not yet determined). Then, an individual known as the Red Hulk came out of the woodwork. He’s basically like the Hulk, but red and getsContinue reading “Mad Woman”
He Can Do Anything
Everyone knows who the Fantastic Four is. They’re Marvel’s first family, one of the original superhero teams, and the first one to show any disfunction. You already know that Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman were in a relationship, and you probably know that they got married too. And from that information, if you didn’tContinue reading “He Can Do Anything”
Oldstrong
Caiera is an amazingly powerful woman, with immense physical strength, speed, and stamina. She’s an alien from the Sakaar, belonging to the Oldstrong race, and is the loyal bodyguard of the Red-King (who is a crazed despot, but we’re not really talking about him). It’s just a shame that the thing Caiera is most rememberedContinue reading “Oldstrong”
He’s Literally Just a Bird
I’m not going to sugarcoat it, Beak is one of the weakest superheroes I’ve ever seen in Marvel Comics. He’s very unattractive given his bird-like appearance, and because of his anatomy he can’t even fly right (which is the one thing a bird is supposed to be able to do!) Yet, somehow, he ends upContinue reading “He’s Literally Just a Bird”
With the Power of One Million Exploding Suns!
If you’ve been following my other blog posts, you may remember my mention of Hyperion, Marvel’s parody of Superman. Well, the Sentry’s a little bit like that, except he doesn’t have any weaknesses. At least not any “normal” weaknesses. The Sentry’s first ever appearance was rather interesting: a man named Robert Reynolds wakes up, rememberingContinue reading “With the Power of One Million Exploding Suns!”
Little Brother
Everyone’s familiar with the original leader of the X-Men, Scott Summers, AKA Cyclops. If you’re a more avid comic book fan or watched some of the later installments in the X-Men film franchise, then you should also know about Cyclops’ brother, Alex, AKA Havok. Both of these Mutants have energy manipulation abilities in some manner,Continue reading “Little Brother”
Mind Over Matter
Now, we’ve talked an awful lot about obscure heroes, so I thought this week it would be a nice idea to take a step back and talk about an obscure villain. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you a villain so obscure, he doesn’t even have a physical body, Onslaught. If you’re familiar with the X-Men,Continue reading “Mind Over Matter”
Ocean Man
For my first post about obscure Marvel characters, we’re going to talk about my personal favorite, as well as the criminally underutilized, Namor the Sub-Mariner. Namor is a bit of an oddity in that if you ask any comic book fan about who he is, they’ll automatically be able to give you an answer. ButContinue reading “Ocean Man”
