    I'm surprised no writer ever came up with the most obvious and most interesting origin story for Stilt-Man; a person whom loses his legs and builds (or commissions) a suit with bionic legs.

    • @olserknam
      @olserknam 2 роки тому +8

      That would be mixing apples and oranges. Stilt-Man's design is inherently over-the-top, putting a layer of real down-to-earth trauma underneath that is kind of in poor taste. His legs would turn from a weird standout gimmick into a desperate coping mechanism and that would make his character all sorts of uncomfortable.

    "Hated by all fans" is a really strong term. I think he's more beloved by most fans than anything in a jokey, "he's too cute to be threatening" sort of way. I think the Marvel Universe would be poorer without him in it.

    ...is it bad then that he's one of my favorites? Like the Frank Miller story is my favorite lighthearted Daredevil story, I like it more than pretty much all of Mark Waid's run. Plus like Rogues said, the original Stan Lee/Wally Wood comic is actually really decent! Among the best of the early DD stories.
    People say Stilt-Man is so lame, but in all honesty his stories really don't reflect that. Wilbur has more good comics than Mr. Freeze imo, so in that sense he's doing pretty well for himself.

      I was just about to say, I am a huge Stilt-Man fan Haha! He's really goofy, but I can't deny his charm. Also, he is one of very few villains that actually learn from his battles and adds defensive measures to his armor like, electric current to shock Daredevil when he touches him, or a special chemical coating that dissolves Spider-Man's webs on contact etc.

    Stilt Man is a very cool villain, I know he might be a joke, but I still like his design with stilts to make him tall. I didn't even now this guy was an enemy of Daredevil, since he already has some villains in his rogues gallery like Kingpin, Bullseye and Jester. I really liked the stories of Stilt Man you chose, I got to say my favorite one is the 2nd story "High and Mighty" it's a cool story for a D list character, and it has good taste of artwork. I wish there was more to this Stilt Man person rather of him being insane like other villains like Gorilla Grodd, but I still like the character, like I said the second story I like potrays the character good. Thank you for the Top 5 Best Stilt Man Stories, and I will see you on the next video. Bye for now!

    Your right I wasn't expecting this. Stiltman can be a pretty solid C list character. There are really only two flaws. Day is a man who always came up short, but now that he can tower over everything is on a power trip. O.k. villian motivation, but not much to work with. The more serious is the joke aspect. Not writing him as a joke threat is easy. He has power armor. The trouble is he uses most of it to get really tall. Obvious question. Why not just boot jets. Or trade being able to only get 200 feet tall for more superstrength? True he does have secondary weapons. But lets face it. No one is looking at that cover and noticing the gun in his hand.

    I never understood why Still-man is considered a pathetic villain. Yeah, his gimmick is kind of ridiculous but not as ridiculous as other villains, even within the Daredevil rogues gallery. Personally I think the Matador is more embarrassing, he looks like a villain from Adam West's Batman series but without tricks or weapons based on his theme, the only joke about him is throwing a cape.
    Maybe he seems ridiculous because now his armor looks obsolete but at that time there weren't many armored villains and few at the level of Iron Man.

Some kid can push you over, its just long legs, its less useful than having nothing, other than the meme crowd who fake defends silly characters to fit in without reading the comics, its the whole reason why its a joke, imagine thinking its the armor, your grasp of reality needs to be quite done for, because even a joke hero gallery doesnt have a power that useless.
