- The X-men have battled many villains, mutants, and humans alike. One of the weirder ones happens to be the dangerous and powerful sorceress Spiral. Spiral was Mojo’s prime enforcer and a six-armed cyborg. She began her life as Ricochet Rita, an ally of Longshot, but was kidnapped and stranded on Mojoverse, where she was brainwashed to become Mojo’s puppet. Spiral first appeared in Ann Nocenti’s Longshot #1 (June 1985). Spiral’s six arms happen to be inspired by deities from the Hindu Mythology, based on Hinduism, one of the world’s oldest religions. Countless Hindu gods are portrayed with 6 arms. Many characters in Hindu mythology have multiple roles and identities, just like Spiral. So how did Spiral become an enemy of the X-men? Let’s find out.

4:27 Mind-blowing Story of Spiral in Animated Series
6:20 What makes Spiral a Deadly Sorceress? - Розваги
I always thought Spiral was one of the more interesting X men villains. I am glad i got to finally learn about her origin story. It is a pity she only made two appearances in the original X men animated series. I was not aware of her connection to the Reavers or Psylocke for that matter. Fingers crossed she gets to be in a future animated movie.
Better yet she's gonna be in a Deadpool film
From the moment I saw Spiral in the 90's cartoon she was my instant favorite. She's so cool and badass
She was really fun to play in Marvel Vs. Capcom 2: New Age Of Heroes.
I confused her a lot with Marrow, as a child.
Yesss
Marvel vs capcom 2 Is a Legendary game.
"Do I wanna play marrow or 6 armed marrow?"
Her story is tragic which makes her such a great character
Dang…the artwork in that original Longshot series is AMAZING ‼️🤯
Art Adams
I got the original series, and value the entire storyline explained in this video.
Longshot is one of my all time favorites.
He's been my favorite hero character since I discovered #2 of the original series on a rack when it was published. Woefully under utilized and under valued. Za's Vid!
If nothing, SPIRAL certainly looks cool…
I hope we see her in the MCU
@@biguy617 I also would like to see her but doubt we will . all Disney care about is Spider-man and Avengers
The conundrum of Ricochet Rita and Spiral existing as the same person on different future timelines in the first volume of Longshot baffled me for years.
The X-men were all the craze in the 90s. To be honest they should've been bigger movie stars before the MCU came about.
X-MEN = All what it truly matters the MOST about the whole Marvel universe
And with the most out of control numbers of underrated characters
She was a BEAST in the video game 🤦🏾♂️💯 my cousin used to spam tf outta her moves lmfao but Spidey gave that web slinging ass kickin lol.
YES! I always like Spiral (Even though I find her to be at least a little bit confusing .), so I’m glad that you did her . Thank You.
She is pretty badass thanks for introducing me to this character.
i remember when the longshot mini series came out ,spiral by far was the coolest Character the series introduced
I really liked the Longshot limited series. Art Adams was the man.
Is he still doing comic work?
@@matthewschwartz6607 Haven't seen anything recently. Tho I understand he contributed to Operation USA's comics for Ukraine. I am also given to understand he make a significant amount doing private commissions.
Spiral is one of those characters I was super interested in for a long time and kinda just forgot about. Thats one of the sad things about cool fictional universes. So many cool characters and despite how cool all of them might be there are often too many to latch onto.
@MarvelEntertainment I smell a Doctor Strange and Phase 4: Multiverse introductions for her!
Spiral is across between Daenerys Targaryen and a Samurai. I hope she'll be in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
I was a kid when I watched X-Men the Animated Series. When Spiral started "dancing..." I thought, "WTF? Did she just have a stroke? Why does she keep spazzing out like that?" They can't really call that elaborate dancing when the animation studio is TRYING to save money by cutting motions to a bare minimum. Her elaborate dancing looked more like she got electrocuted and her arms just started flailing about randomly.
She was fun to play in Marvel vs Capcom.
Yes nice profile on her!! Was truly suprised!! Thanks Fam!!
She all ways been pretty dope .. liked her in Marvel Vs Capcom 2
Uncanny X-Force did alot with her. Such a good series.
Thank you soooooooooo much for introducing an OG Marvel characters outside of the avengers/ MCU / Disney plus/ earth 52.
Amazing narration job with this one.
Always loved the way she had 6 arms with swords
Great marvelous video 🧡👍
I've never even heard of this character.
First time i saw her was on the 90's X-Men cartoon series and then the arcade game X-Men Children of the Atom
Arthur Adams art is always a treat to see
Wow this really explained it fast n easty 👍🏼
Looks like she is Omega Level.
Great 👌
once of my fav fighters in the MvC games.
I hope the MCU brings her and mojo back into a live action film.
so ..Interesting!!! characther, I Love Spiral!
5:25-5:30. Yeah, that’s what they did between Wolverine and Lady Deathstrike in the cartoon, too. They had the two of them as past lovers (They were never lovers in the comics .) before they became adversaries .
I was introduced to her via the Capcom games, then started reading up on her and bought some issues. Just got the Retro figure a few weeks ago and it's really nice.
I'm surprised you didn't mention her presence in the "X-Men: Children of the Atom" game.
Can you do the Joker from DC Comics love the video
Gracias lo pude ver con cc, me encanta este personaje
Awesome
Always enjoyed playing her mvc2
Ever since i know of the character in Marvel vs Capcom 2, I have been interested in knowing her more. I thought she is cool
This story should be done in live action...
A love interest for Dr Octopus perhaps. 🐙
Spiral is crazy powerful
Mojo T.V. she works for so Don't forget that.
Her powers and strengths remind me a bit of Doctor Doom.
She’s always been my favorite anti hero!
Spiral 🌀 sexy AF
Mvc 2 💯💯
She would make the perfect girlfriend for six arm spiderman.
She was also my mai in mvc 2😎
I read that her being Ricochet Rita was a retcon. I don’t think that was what they originally had in mind for her (Or Mojo?).
Correct, and to me it was always a bit of lazy writing, Rita and Spiral deserved better.
Nope. Wasn't a retcon at all. She went with Longshot to Mojoworld at the end of the series to help him rebel and in later storylines after Longshot's failed rebellion was a captured amd genetically experimented on and transformed into Spiral. Spirsl returning to capture herself as Rita Hayward/Ricochet Rita is a temporal paradox.
@@LongshotLynx - I know that Ann Nocenti (Her creator.) didn't want Rita to be Spiral, and she was not happy with what eventually became her origin.
@@matthewschwartz6607 Thars interesting to me. I've read a lot interviews of Ann. Only time I can recall her commenting on character development beyoumd her initial writing for Longshot was that she understood one doesn't have to personally accept each writer's version, emphasis, retcon etc. Can you link the interview where she states what you're telling me? Marvel writers know they don't have legacy creative control, influence or expectation of being consulted for the characters they create.
Also, so I know you understand, just because Ann may have disliked what became of Spiral's character backstory, it's still not a retcon.
You know what, She Vêry Super Hot, 6 arm bro
Spiral plays a similar roll to Shego of Kim possible
3:52 did you mean to say captain marvel or captain America?
Man i remember her from marvel vs capcom 2
She's a swordmaster.
Don't beam me up yet
Scotty, I'm taking a shi🎆🎇🖖
Hmm 🤔 I feel the X-Men villains fall under a spectrum where some are reformed or some have been an ally towards the X-Men. I felt Spiral has aided the X-Men on several occasions where she was more of an ally than an antagonist. Yes some of her actions were against the X-Men but they weren’t has hard compared to other villains. I feel Spiral is kind of on the same spectrum as Callisto leader of the Morlocks but not as bad as say Mr. Sinister or Mystique!
I always liked Spiral. I thought they should have done the last X-men movie on Mojo World instead of rehashing the Phoenix story line.
Mojo & Spiral Pt. 2
No way Nightcrawler is a threat to Spiral, at all.
wanna take you for a ride XD
She have many swords
I came for Spiral from Marvel Vs. Capcom 2
I used to think she was the sliver samurai sister
They should make Spiral actually Indian.
No!…. Stop rewriting characters. You see how well, that’s working out for modern Marvel Comics? Not well at all.
She tug job
She is so cool 😎 😎😎😎.
Who can defeat her, like who's Strong enough on her.
Just look at the art and listen to the ORIGINAL story and it's easy to see why the comics industry is in the gutter these days.
She's a mutant.
6 armed
Soooo..... Sheeva before MK? Lol
Mortal Kombat?
She is also the sister of Shiva from Mortal Kombat three
I hope Spiral never gets an on-screen adaptation any time soon. She's too cool, too O.P, too badass for Hollywood to botch and make woke.
Supposedly deadpool 3 she’s 1 of 2 villains
Define woke
FIRST
4:16 I didn’t know you could become an asian! Well, if a man can gender transform into a woman, why the heck not? You can just become an asian in the future.
