    Good video. I was the OHOTMU writer who wrote that entry you reference, one of my favorites during my time there. Yes, the Hostess bit is canon - I took it to editorial and got it approved, as it did not contain any of the "sillier" elements of the typical Hostess ads and pretty much fit in-continuity without any hassle. Another "big win" for me on that entry was convincing them to let the Wendigo spirit from that Amazing Spider-Man issue be "The" Wendigo spirit (the '80s Deluxe Edition specified it was separate, but as the decades went on, there was no longer reason to do so, especially with the "lore" of Marvel's Wendigo straying so far from what it had been at that time of the original clarification).

    • @MadisonCarter
      @MadisonCarter 10 місяців тому +6

      BTW, on the Hostess ads - they're all considered kinda-sorta in-continuity. Between Kurt Busiek's use of Icemaster, a number of the Hostess villains appearing in a story a decade or so ago and a story involving Spider-Man and Johnny Storm doing some in-continuity advertising to make money, they're considered exaggerated versions of actual events. Most of the confrontations happened, just not in the silly "toss a pie in their mouth to distract them" way they're depicted.

    I always loved the Wendigo and so enjoyed Marvel's version. That is until they turned the Wendigo into a race or more like a group of people can become a Wendigo instead of one person at a time. They first appeared in a Red-Hulk run, and in a later run, which might be connected to the Red-Hulk it was revealed that Hero, Tanarag had been messing with the curse. It was shown that he was infecting many people with the Wendigo curse to spread it past Canada to gain more power. Before this and maybe once again, there is only one Wendigo and it can be affected by the host. That is why some seem different from the other,, but they are actually the same evil spirit/curse. Recently a clone of Wolverine was possessed by the Wendigo, and easily killed by the current Hulk off panel. Which I think is a shame, cause it could have been a hell of a fight. I mean the Wendigo has always been able to beat or give Hulk a hell of a fight, tho if it faced World War Hulk or the whole Ship Hulk thing then Wendigo would get crushed. The Wendigo in team Weapon Prime was fitted with a device that allowed the human to have control. But its likely that didn't last long and the Wendigo is long gone. The 1 million BC Wendigo was confusing, but we don't know really anything about that version and I hope one day we will.

    Wendigo's are also connected to the curse of werewolves and skin skinwalkers and aliens from the netherworld or fourth dimension, astral world of mystical realms. Shadow dimension of the negative realms. They are probably impossible to kill except by a rare chance from another wendigo or someone with mystical powers of dark magic or druid origins. They are also thought to have shown as silver haired or sometimes with red hair or brown hair or a mixture of all of them. There's a theory to they can change size or colours at will or in a rage? They have a weakness to fire or sometimes mirrors seeing their own reflection courses them to see reality of who their were? Like a vampire they can change shape into a large wolf or owl or even into any animal crossing its path including human or copy of the person it has killed. Beast or god or something unusual in nature a curse or an old god from the original universe before the dust of the big bang? Werebeast of the nine realms or possibly say a creation of alien origins who can say or know the truth of their unique existence, a man beast or beast man? Neither World Man Egyptian Moon Knight?

    There is another great appearance of these creatures in the Earth X storyline. The mutant superhero Multiple Man Jamie Madrox is starving after that world’s famine so he pops a multiple and then eats him, which turns the original into a Wendigo. Imagine the original Wendigo multiplied by thousands if not millions and you have that storyline’s prevailing threat.
