I’ve never been a mobile game player, but I’ve enjoyed these videos enough that I downloaded the game, and I love it so far! Thanks for the videos both on this game and all the subjects you cover!
Grant Morrison, whose writing I don’t really like, has created two characters I really love. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened twice. I felt there was a lot of weird misogynist stuff happening in that original Marvel Boy book so I really did not enjoy it. But I thought the first time Noh-Varr crossed paths with the Young Avengers was really interesting. Now his time on the Young Avengers is one of my favorite comic runs of all time, but I really didn’t like him my first read-through (it’s my Kate Bishop bias, probably). But I’ve since read that book like 5 times and it made me love him. He’s such a little weirdo. A hot weirdo. Kate has had a couple exes but it’s so funny to me every time one of her friends mentions “her ex” it’s always him and she gets sooo pissed. I was also hoping he would pop up in The Marvels but I knew that was wishful thinking.
I’ve been trying to figure out a justification for a five card location for months and this is great!! I think that’s the newest mechanic to be introduced, personally that’s the biggest one on my mind other than recycling location abilities into cards and vice versa. Always love the shop talk, but mostly the lore, thanks Nando!
I saw the comment on the last video about adding some visuals for the reading recommendations, really glad to see that you added them to this video. It helps a lot!
I remember stumbling on an essay about the Morrison run of Marvel Boy that got me to give comics more of a chance as a medium for symbolic story telling. That run is an intentional exploration of everything Marvel, with Midas clearly looking like Iron Man and later the Thing, and even Noh-Varr’s suit being a color inversion of Spider-Man’s. So the title”Marvel Boy” is a nod to this whole character being a pastiche of Marvel’s history. Been trying to find it again for ages, wish I could summarize it better.
didn't know Marvel Snap was doing a Young Avengers event! Might have to get back into Snap, drags cigarette. But hey, anything that gets people into Young Avengers that's fine lmao. love these guys
The idea of his Snap card ever giving EVERY 1 cost 1 power is hilarious, he's phenomonal with Kate Bishop and Squirrel Girl, already hit infinite with a zoo deck and now I can sit back and read some sick comic recs!
I legit never thought I would watch a video where someone is talking about Marvel boy, and discussing him in length, oh boy, wow, here we are. 😅
At this point marvel should pay you to put together trades and collections 😭
marvel will never pay this man 😂 we’ve been saying this for years

Wow so glad I found your channel. Just a marvel snap player who wanted to know more about my new favorite card

i love noh varr just not having an ability that makes sense without completely reworking the card, gotta love benjamin brodejamin
also there are barely any dark avengers in the game
Been waiting for this one since the data mine of him came out. So excited to watch!
Oh! That's how you say Chris Bachalo!! Love that guy's art so much lmao. 5:45
He seems like a fun character based on how you described him. I’ll have to check out those issues sometime.
Great intro. Nice and concise.
These videos are so good man
Just picked up this guys marvel legend!
If he was ever brought to live action Austin Butler would be a great casting! He looks just like this panel. 3:46
Huh
3:22 I don’t know about the 616 universe but Midas does make an appearance in the new Ultimates book and it’s super interesting.
Speaking of Marvel Boy, Are you going to do a video about Robert Grayson the first Marvel Boy since no one else has done an origin video of him?
Isn't he the wielder of the Quantum Bands pre-Quasar?
It's funny to think that actors cast in comic roles will probably watch Nando videos for research.
That last alt card for Noh-Varr features art by Kris Anka. not "Akana."
Can you do a video on who is killer moth , polkadot man , kiteman and condimint king please
I just realised they draw Norman as Tommy Lee Jones
If you did the origin of Noh-Varr Marvel_Boy, Are you going to do origin of his parents Star Splendor and General Glory?
Oo-blee-ette (a place to put someone to forget about them)
Pleaaaaase do Speed at some point!!!!! (The Marvel character ofcourse)
Phrasing!
@@brianbett9196 Speed not speed, but speed could be cool too!!
LETSSS GOOOOO
I always thought he was pretty cool.
Nova
"Sexy" and "Cockroach" are not good words together.
Yeah wtf is that title 😂
I mean there's a cockroach Vtuber with a pretty desing ( Matara-kan) and there's also Pheromosa from Pokémon
I love your videos and this one is great but please lower your treble on your EQ. Every time you make the s sound it peaks.
First
