    I absolutely LOVED this line from the old X-Men cartoon:
    Senator Kelly: "You're supposed to protect humans from mutants"!
    Master Mold: "That is illogical, mutants ARE humans! Therefore humans have to be protected from THEMSELVES"!

      Fun Fact: The reason "Nimrod" is synonymous with "idiot" is because of Bugs Bunny. In old Loony Tunes Cartoons, Bugs Bunny sarcastically compared Elmer Fudd to Nimrod, who was a legendary hunter referenced in the Bible. However, not enough people understood the reference, and just assumed Nimrod was just another word for idiot, since Elmer Fudd was such an incompetent hunter.
      The lesson to be learned from this is that Bugs Bunny > The Bible.

      The best part? The meaning of "nimrod" that most people know is from Bugs Bunny making fun of Elmer Fudd. He called Elmer Fudd "a real Nimrod" (Nimrod in the Bible was a great and mighty hunter). So the common meaning of "nimrod" is literally because Bugs Bunny made a Biblical reference in a joke that just flew over peoples' heads.

    Nimrod will always be one of my favorite characters. Took on the Hellfire Club, X-Men at the same time and almost won. Knocked out the Juggernaut in seconds. He became sucky when he fused with Master Mold and Bastion. I think the problem was he was *too* powerful, and the writers were going to start having trouble figuring out ways to stop him, because you could never beat him the same way twice (he was sort of like Doomsday...each time he was defeated, he came back with the ability to counter whatever defeated him).

    It's funny you bring up The Fury and how similar Nimrod is to it.
    The story goes that the only reason Nimrod exists/was created for the comics was because Alan Moore, in typical Alan Moore fashion, wouldn't let anyone else play with his toys. Back in The Trial of Magneto, we had Sir James Jaspers involved -- The Fury was supposed to emerge during the trial and set Jaspers up as a big bad for Claremont's ongoing X-Men book. Alan Moore threw a fit, leading to the story being neutered (Fenris was the enemy instead) and Claremont and Co going back to the drawing board, which lead to Nimrod being created.

    • @TimPoultney
      @TimPoultney 5 років тому +8

    I imagine the sentinels analyzed Hulk's powers and realized his strength was augmented by his anger and hit him with some type of gas, sleep agent, or any other thing that would curb anger. Once the hulk was no longer angry or could get angry... they would would just kill him. That's the screwed up thing about the hulk. He's so powerful that his weakness has to be something stupid. Like Martian Manhunter is weak to fire. If the Hulk can't get angry... He's done. Let's tickle him to death. Laughing gas or something that screws with his emotions. I know that idea hurts hulk fan boys feelings cause they don't want anything to be able to stop the hulk. But That's how the sentry was always able to just make the hulk docile in the past... He would just simply make him not angry, but that couldn't be done to world breaker hulk. The hulk was just too angry, and angry with purpose and reason other than just angry for something trivial like "wanting to be left alone". Plus the sentry wanted to cut loose on someone anyway. But yes... The joker could probably release his toxic laughing gas on the hulk and leave him blissfully dead with a smile on his face. Sorry fan boys. Lol
    It's funny and ironic, that in the past, the hulk probably never wants to be the hulk. When he would turn into the hulk he would always want to be "left alone". Because being left alone would allow his anger to subside and allow him to return back to being banner. But not leaving him alone kept him raging and getting stronger. He just wanted to be left alone, turn back to banner, and go be with Betty.

      People thought they killed the Hulk before but he typically gets better. Even in recent times they killed the Hulk before Civil War 2, killed him while he was Banner with his powers suppressed... he just came back stronger his current running comic is literally called "The Immortal Hulk"
      They'd be better off sedating him and keeping him that way than trying to kill him.

    Could Nimrod actually beat (comic book) Ultron though? If Ultron could take over the phalanx, I imagine he would have no trouble taking over Nimrod. Also Thor has enough power to stagger a celestial. Thor has the power, the hammer just allows him to channel and focus it. Also Thor could just use the hammer to thrust Nimrod into another dimension.
    Last thing... I understand what you're doing but you tend to compare Comic versions to MCU versions. That's not exactly fair. If Thor, hulk, Ultron, etc.. are toned down in the MCU, chances are Nimrod, the sentry, the one above all, etc... Would be toned down if introduced into the MCU as well.

    • @AC-gb7do
      @AC-gb7do 5 років тому

      Michael Korvac is a computer technician in the alternate universe Earth-691. When the Sol System and its colonies are conquered by the alien Brotherhood of Badoon in the year 3007 AD, Korvac becomes a collaborator and traitor to the human race. Caught asleep at a machine while working, the Badoon punish Korvac by grafting his upper body to a machine, effectively making him a cyborg.
      Korvac is then transported through time by the Elder of the Universe the Grandmaster, who utilizes him as a pawn in battling the hero Doctor Strange and the Defenders.
      It is eventually revealed that Korvac deliberately lost the fight so he can be able to discreetly scan and analyze the Grandmaster's cosmic power. Gaining several new abilities from this analysis, Korvac then kills his Badoon masters and plans to conquer the cosmos. Korvac recruits a group of aliens called the "Minions of Menace" and attempts to cause Earth's sun to go nova, but is defeated by the Guardians of the Galaxy and the time-traveling Thunder God Thor.
      Korvac was originally a normal man until the Badoon amputated the lower half of his body and grafted his upper body and nervous system onto a specialized computer module capable of siphoning energy from virtually any source. Korvac's mechanical module could also tap and synthesize any form of energy and concealed advanced weaponry.
      After downloading information from Galactus' ship and acquiring the Power Cosmic, Korvac is capable of energy projection, matter alteration, teleportation, astral projection, and manipulation of time and space. In his perfect human form, Korvac retained all his cosmic abilities and could use these to achieve virtually any effect.
      Michael Korvac is also a brilliant computer scientist, a master strategist, and a formidable hand-to-hand combatant.
