I love how at a glance the Fantastic Four, in terms of origin, appear to be the same sort of an instance as to what you might expect if the Phoenix had been split up amongst the four. I have always felt that the team was like a lesser version of the Phoenix force in Jean. Also, Dazzler has been my favorite since they put her in the arcade game when I was a kid. 🥰

I think it's odd that you did not mention Rogue's connection to Ms. Marvel actually absorbing her completely and permanently gaining some of her powers. Leaving Ms. Marvel with amnesia, taking a long time until she regained her memory.
I love these top 10 lists. You have to acknowledge that it is hard coming up with an original origin story, so we are going to be seeing some interesting one. It is interesting the ones here that involve some odd isolation or captivation at a young age thing. Some of these you would expect to become villains vice heros.
During the "Evolutionary War" Annuals Spider-Woman's origin was further retconned/altered to include the High Evolutionary and make a few other changes. She was living with her parents and Herbert Edgar Wyndham (the High Evolutionary in the comics before he put on the armor) on Mount Wundagore. She was playing with another child, Philip Masters (later the Puppet Master) when she collapsed from radiation poisoning. To cure her, her father administered the serum he had developed from spiders, but it needed to incubate before it would be effective. The High Evolutionary put her in suspended animation and used his machines to artificially incubate the serum within her blood. Her mother accused her father of making her one of his experiments, ran off, and was killed by a werewolf which turned out to be a Baron Russoff, Jack Russel's (Werewolf By Night) ancestor. Her father fled Wundagore as he was grieving his wife and distraught over his daughter who would be in suspended animation for years. She woke up decades later, but was only physically 17 years old due to decelerated aging while in suspended animation. She left Wundagore and then the Hydra stuff happened. But I'm sure It was at least partially a "false memory" or maybe the High Evolutionary implanted fake memories.
In your Magik breakdown, you forgot to mention that after Illyana was abducted at some point a 7-year-old version of her was rescued and brought home. Later the child contracted the Legacy Virus and died. Then through some mystical shenanigans, her soul reconstituted itself in Limbo in the form of her alter ego Darkchilde. After a while, the original Illyanna asserted control and was able to return to her original form at her proper age.
I had that comic. Thats when colossus went nuts n left the xmen. Ended up joining magneto. Fiirst. Comic when he joined magneto, he had just totally messed up omega red
For Bouncing Boy, there is a Bendis-written version of the Legion. In it, Bouncing Boy is simply a metahuman who has the ability to inflate his body and bounce. A side effect of his ability is that he is completely invulnerable when he is inflated. The original Bouncing Boy also was an expert in angles and trajectories due to his ability. With Booster Gold, when he made his debut there was a mystery of what his origin was. One of the theories as that he was a rejected Legion applicant because he had a Legion Flight Ring, and his force field was based on the Force Field Belt used by Brainiac Five. The reason he was working at the Museum was he was a professional football player who was ejected from pro football in disgrace due to him getting caught gambling on his own team. Later, it was revealed that the reason Skeets helped Booster to become a superhero in the 20th Century is because history said it would happen and Skeets ensured that would happen to keep history on track.
I grew up in the 70's, and I have never heard of spider woman until 2020 when all this hype started. The only women I heard of and grew up with and loved to watch as a child was Wonder Woman who was an amazon woman from the amazons. As it was back in the 70, we were always bombarded with American comic strip style cartoons and merry melodies. so, you can imagine that there were actually not many comics that had women in them as any kind of superhero till 2020 even though the internet will tell you different.
In your breakdown of Puck from Alpha Flight, you failed to mention that Razer was an evil wizard who perpetuated himself by magically absorbing the life energy of humans to stay young and virile. This was represented as him stealing actual height from his victims. He was imprisoned in the sword, which was White at the time, but over the centuries he was able to corrupt his prison and turn it black. It sat in a vault waiting for someone to touch it and release him. When the wraith Razer was released accidently by Puck, he used the blade to steal some of Puck's lifeforce, causing Puck to become shorter. It was then that Puck realized that in order to contain Razer a new prison was needed; a living prison that could resist corruption. It was Puck's sacrifice (loss of height) that contained Razer for decades until he was released by an enchanted well opened by Loki.
You want an idea? Top 10 awesome single scenes that represented the hero. My nominee is from Superman comics, #295 IIRC -- it has Clark at home getting ready to go to work. He is standing there in his boxers with his shirt on, pants in his hands. He jumps into them. One scene, the awesomeness that is Superman: He's not "just like us. He does NOT put his pants on one leg at a time." Beautiful.
Shatterstar was the first action figure I ever got and served to provision the origin story for a series of novels I would later author based on the stories I made up playing with action figures. The character is named Floyd and becomes the catalyst event for the entire universe by committing to an act of paradox in an attempt to erase himself upon learning that his world is a fictional novel. 😅

I know this has to have been answered at some point, but I have never heard the explanation: if Michael Jon Carter was a security guard at a museum in the 25th century, how did he find a Legion flight ring, when the Legion hale from the 30th century?
As to Howard The Duck, despite being a blatant satire/parody of Donald Duck, and thus protected usage, Marvel got sued over him by Disney. One aspect of the consent decree was that he had to always wear pants (Donald never does).
Man why is there Spider-Man origin story where they get bit by a black widow a normal spider but gets struck by lightning witch made the spider poison radioactive and you know the rest.
The funny thing about Dazzler is that her character was originally created during the disco era as a collaboration of sorts between Marvel Comics and Casablanca Records.
Indeed. That was during the "big acts" era where they also created "The Village People". Marvel saw this as their answer to Archie comics. "Sugar... Oh honey honey... You are my candy girl". But it gets even worse! Buoyed by the heady fumes of failure, Marvel and the producers of the daytime soap opera "The Guiding Light" reworked Dazzler into a live-action character in the soap opera, where she became known as... "Guiding Light". Instead of Allison Blaire Witch, the character's secret identity was Harley Cooper, a long-established, very popular character in the soap opera. In that version, she simply was trying to operate a machine after soda spilled on her hands, got electrocuted, blacked out the fictitious city of "Springfield, Illinois," and she awoke with powers. And a streak in her hair, ala Rogue. (I hate myself for knowing this. Any of it).
I have a friend that’s a guy who I believe has the same personality as you do. He could be you to the point it is creepy, e has the same storehouse of useless knowledge you have. Same interests and intense personality. Omg don’t think I could be in the same room with both of you at the same time.
Someone should write an arch for Nightcrawler and Angel as a dynamic duo forming a team featuring Spawn, Ghostrider, Daimon Hellstrōm and Dr Strange as advisor. They would fight against an evil team of Dormamu Nightmare and Mephisto to save the rest of the X-men from hell or a dark dimension ... 👿💀👹 #marveldarkuniverse
The live action Doom Patrol series achieved one thing that I thought was impossible, sitting through something starring brendan fraser. The same can be also said for the show, Santa Clarita Diet and drew barrymore.

From my understanding, Night Crawler dating a foster sister is not illegal. They're not blood relatives. So, it is legal to do so.
Also, Amanda Sefton, AKA Jimaine is a witch... she changed her appearance with a glamour.
I think it's odd that you did not mention Rogue's connection to Ms. Marvel actually absorbing her completely and permanently gaining some of her powers. Leaving Ms. Marvel with amnesia, taking a long time until she regained her memory.
Silk is my favorite spider person though.
Poor Dexstar. He just wanted to be loved by his owner. Hims is such a good kitty....

they're heroes because they didn't become a villain

Wonderful!
it's funny that she said jean grey's metal block was heinous whereas martian manhunter's mental block was out of kindness?
No it's sexist
No Cloak & Dagger? Magical Heroin?

" have you seen my chiiiildhoood ! " 😅
27:00 HILL YEA!!
Wow early Reed Richards sounds a lot like Stockton Rush
The incredulous tone she adapts when explaining these origins is just too funny
i love this girl, is like her body, her face and her mouth were three separate entities trying to coordinate but only two of them make it right XD
7:09 Ed...ward
What about Shadowman? Strontium Dog? Deathlok? Plastic Man? Toxic Avenger? Ragman? Garbage Man? Judge Dredd? Crimson Dynamo? The Grey Ghost? ....I'll stop now. ...But, I really could keep going!

I'm pretty sure that in 'into the spiderverse' the pig was also portrait as an evolved spider...
Dexstars was just sad I hope he gets a better life in the comics
Heck Yeah!!!
Martian Manhunter is one of the best superhero’s ever written
I know this has to have been answered at some point, but I have never heard the explanation: if Michael Jon Carter was a security guard at a museum in the 25th century, how did he find a Legion flight ring, when the Legion hale from the 30th century?
The Hellboy origin, I assumed that it was a part of his superpowers that people would like and want to help him despite his demonic appearence.
I want more Doom Patrol please.
As to Howard The Duck, despite being a blatant satire/parody of Donald Duck, and thus protected usage, Marvel got sued over him by Disney. One aspect of the consent decree was that he had to always wear pants (Donald never does).
I got an ad for "fume free and nicotine free vapes" while watching this. The ending of the ad said "Try the safe addiction" wtf
You lost me at dog welder. I hatethe concept of this character and I believe he should be left and forgotten.
🐕🦺💥💪🤡
Hellboy, Don't worry after all. He ate the pancakes
Who else noticed she’s wearing a WATOP t-shirt?
We all know the REAL Captain Marvel is BILLY BATSON aka SHAZZAM!
Well seeing how these are only comic books they never really happened.
8:05 Why is that funny?
I prefer Jessica Drew's origin in the Ultimate Universe comics. She's Peter Parker's clone, created by Dr. Octopus.
Man why is there Spider-Man origin story where they get bit by a black widow a normal spider but gets struck by lightning witch made the spider poison radioactive and you know the rest.
Scarlet witch is the chick from the avengers movie right? She falls in love with vision
Bruh
It's funny that the video is called superhero origins but halfway through it became the origin stories of villains.
The funny thing about Dazzler is that her character was originally created during the disco era as a collaboration of sorts between Marvel Comics and Casablanca Records.
Really? Cool

Girl, that shirt, tied up is NOT working for you! Fashion makeover needed!
Wonder woman's origin story is much inspired by the story of the hindu god Murugan mostly for the way she's created ! 💪🏾👸🏽⚡️
WHAT? No Herbie Popnecker!?!😜
Redhood's face looks alot like Ironman's....
i have ever single spider woman comic
Why did you guys record the same video twice, with different hosts, and post them both as one video?
It's shocking America, even in the 25th century you don't have universal healthcare. Go Booster. 😁
I have a friend that’s a guy who I believe has the same personality as you do. He could be you to the point it is creepy, e has the same storehouse of useless knowledge you have. Same interests and intense personality. Omg don’t think I could be in the same room with both of you at the same time.

Bouncing Boy Elongated Man 2.0
Wonder if Bouncing Boy has to put up with Superman’s trans man defendant in the future. 🤔
Who the hell even thought of “Dogwelder”
That would be Garth Ennis 👀

Like She Hulk, Spiderwoman's origin is exceedingly simple:. Obtain Copyright ©️

What About Mar vel
Only Marvel huh?
play at .75 speed to understand her
The live action Doom Patrol series achieved one thing that I thought was impossible,
sitting through something starring brendan fraser.
The same can be also said for the show, Santa Clarita Diet and drew barrymore.
No timestamps = no sub
