I rolled my eyes when I first found out about her parents name and knew someone from the Cacaus mountain came up with the character. She eventually grew on me.
I am today years old finding out about Bling!. She seems like a cool character I might look into. Dont really have a problem with her name its unique in its one way. But her parents rap names Jesus Christ! They could have done better. That lets me know their was no melanin input on this characters orgin what so ever. But I digress. It is what it is. Hopefully she will get some more exposure in the pages.
"Daddy Libido." 😂😂😂😂
Really wish the “academy X” students were shown a bit more love. Miss you Surge!!
Bruh she seem dope AF. A few new touches to her backstory and man you got a hit character. I'm today's year old learning about her. Thanks again Ernie!
Welp emma frost has a best friend
Bling! seems to be one of those characters that on the surface you can't help but think "Who approved this?" But when you give her a chance she actually has a lot of substance to her. Now honestly, the only thing that really bugs me is she's basically Blue Ivy, without being Jay Z and Beyonce, who I'm pretty sure exist in the Marvel Universe, child.
That said, I have a feeling if she was in Milestone Universe in the 90's when they first got started, she probably would've been a good what if they did maybe
Her parents names are the most PROBLEMATIC thing in Marvel in the most recent history🤦🏿
Frfr
When you hear the word "problematic"....you know all the right people have been triggered 🤣🤣🤣
Its border line disrespect
No, no I can show you a scene from the micronaut’s comic that wil change your mind
You make such great choices for the actors that could play these characters.
Her saying that the best thing about being captured was Rogue coming to save her gave me a chuckle.
This is probably why we’ve NEVER seen her parents in any of these books
She also have A crush on Rogue.
Maybe diamond or diamondback.. shards.. shine.. priceless😀
Most valuable mutant? So those share she can cast off are they like actual daimonds? Cuz that can be lucrative to villains lol
More then Emma frost
There was another character that was kind like that. That was Hollow. People completely for got about her in generation x books
Those rap names are like....wow....
This is why you that boy. Characters like these are so under appreciated. Power to the people.
So she's like marrow and the Emma Frost or Spike from the X-men cartoon lol
I hope that she's in that X-corporation book with Angel and Monet.
I think you might be a little off about her creation. in that era of x men, long lists of random mutants were the norm and I'm sure most of the academy x style cast were quickly made without the intention of taking seriously. That being said, I'm sure there was a "what do we call the black one?" conversation at some point.
The main issue isn’t really her name. The name is actually dope as hell. But that was the cherry ont op of a terrible sundae lol. I love her design and abilities. I understand that era well. But other black mutants were given much more nuance. This was something that was made to pander to what they seen as “good” black people. Let’s just be honest
Can we get two black characters together with out them being in a relationship with white people?
Fr
Ikr
I'd get in the middle of that sandwich
THAT'S THE POINT. THEY DO THIS GOOFY SHIT WITH US IN ENTERTAINMENT ON PURPOSE.
I am STILL still pissed off about Prodigy. This is more fuel to the fire.
Blerd u rock tf out u really covered Bling! If u can keep doing this series ill greatly appreciate it. Cover all the New Mutants
Didn't know any of this, so freaking dope!
Cool vids. I like your x men vids the most. You go so in depth with these mutants origins and story. The X men world is so big it can be it own universe. So I wonder who would be the best x men or mutant at anything. Best mutant martial artists, best mutant assassins, best mutant groups. Etc just spitting some ideas like am sexy momma lol 😂
Ahhhhh you did get around to M
I never had an opinion on Bling but this video made me think she has some potential. I wonder if she related to Krystal from X-Men 2099.
Love the Generation X run of her. Surprised they don’t just use her name Roxy and call it a day. I never connected the issue with her name sorry 🤷♂️ autism. I’ll be more aware in the future.
However again why your videos are so awesome. Thanks for the insight as always. I loved her arc with Mercury tbh which is one of the reasons I dig her.
She feels like she could be a team lead in the future. Hopefully we see her in X Corp
Thank you so much king black power
You're right. I have dismissed her all this time, solely because of her name. After your introspective, i'll give her another chance.
There was a black screen and dead air at the end of this video that usually isn't there. Was it missed or was there a post upload edit?
Oya next!!
I think BRE-Z from Empire and All American would be a better choice to play a live action Bling!
I knew Bling! was a lesbian, but I didn't know Mercury was.
I would if made her a black diamond and yea named her black diamond or carbon or cobalt also the rap name shyn is already taken
Unrelated but, why cyclops got cake?😳 6:53
Milligan has done some TRULY great work, and perhaps he created her, intending to have her join his X-Force/X-Statix, because ONLY then would something so cringeworthy be allowed to play out. Her story is much more compelling now that i hear it a decade later, as a whole, and perhaps a new codename WOULD provide a cleaner slate.
1 days old on this character! Name could be an easy fix. Just looked up the Swahili (African) name for diamond; ALMASI. Boom. Done.
First to like and comment. Let’s hit that intro
And make it look easy!
Jesus thats best name they can come up with
I thought you were doing a video on blink..never heard of this character.
You should add a part where you change the code name of a hero if you could
Yup she's new to me
And I think somebody that's black and out of touch made her I'm gonna look into it
Just a bunch of stereotypes meshed together to create a character. 🙄
Literally
Basically
That's literally every superhero ever
@@blackphoenix77 the problem is this ain't the 60s. Pfft. They gotta do better. I mean I can think of several real life people who would make excellent super heroes. IE. Percy Julian, any member of the black tank battalion WWII, Elijah McCoy, G. W. CARVER, etc.
I feel like all these new heroes are super smart, super strong and damn near indestructible
I’d love to have her powers.
"adamant barrage"
I wonder could she sell those diamonds she makes
Hey when you mentioned how bl!ng spelled her name, your watermark covered the example panel.
I actually picked up this comic, saw this character, and put that comic down setting a land speed record.
I have always hated Bling's creation. No melanin was used in the creation of this character and it showed, to quote B. Dave Walters.
You are wise beyond your years, young padawan
🤣🤣 @ being basically Blue Ivy 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
With the King in Black event and what's currently going on with the Mutants. It will be highly dumb of the writers to have normal humans of earth to just go back to hating mutants after the day was save by them and super powered humans in a joint effort. I would hope they go a different way cause to this where the world make laws to full protect mutants but their are still organizations out their that won't play ball.
She could be a female version of Colossus with some special attributes and weaknesses, but ...... Emma Frost did it better.
Would you do Dr. Cecilia Reyes?
I’ve missed the last 20 years of XMen so I’m not familiar with this character but some of these characters seem like stand ins and do overs for characters with similar powers they mishandled or disregarded.
I'm 99 percent sure I rolled my eyes when I first read about the character.
Her name is realistic and cool.
Should have made her dad little Wayan ...
How many Black hero’s are genius engineers/physicist/scientist? It’s ok to be a normal intellect Black person with powers. Or if they have to be a genius, make them geniuses in social science like sociology.
So many genius level superheroes in comics regardless of race, but they can't stop those catastrophic events LOL
Cecilia Reyes is a doctor
@@alejandromilici7763 mmhm
To me the parents names sound like satire.
Loa stole her girl!
I thought penance had diamond skin.... or was it just hard as Diamond
It's just diamond hard
Don’t like the character but video is cool
Wonder how much she worth or the streets lol you know cause rappers be having rap beefs and she's a superhero
Whoever knew Rihanna has a avatar version of herself
Never knew about this character. I love how the X Men are just producing so much content with new characters. They ain’t gonna stop with the racist innuendos
These power sets their giving out are DC like. As parents of rappers and a participant in their lifestyle I'm guessing her smarts are part of her powers. If not her diamond powers should have been enough. With those smarts and powers she could have run her own country at 19. And is she fully organic diamond? Or everything but her bones?.. Anyway its an uninteresting character that seems like a ignorant toss in to fill a quota.
She look like rhianna
How does she even have a physical relationship with anyone. Her skin is literally diamond 💎. Seems like a stretch but hey comics
Entertaining and informative as usual, love your work BUT...I just can't get behind this character. Hard eye roll when I first heard about her name, background, and parents names. Clearly it wasn't one of us who created her. It's as bad as having yet another black character that came from poverty, abuse, or a life of crime. She's the kid of rappers. Smh. Her powers make her similar to Emma Frost and Penance but with no real original abilities or compelling character development. Being a lesbian doesn't cut it. It just seems like every character has genius level intellect and above average hand to hand combat skills. I get that the latter can come from training but a lot of these characters are losing their individuality. Surprised she doesn't have a "healing factor" too. Another power that has been overused. If any mutant should have lost their powers after M Day, it should have been this one. I can't imagine why she didn't except for maybe being that forgettable.
First
Come on no one should read a book by its cover. I agree the name is cheesy🧀
Maury: "Groot.... You are not the father!"
*@Blerd Without Fear* I Must Say.. I Have Never Heard Of Her And I've Been Fan Of The X Men For Eons Now! Im Embarrassed!!
But Im Even MORE Embarrassed Of Her Name Being "Bling," Because She Is The Daughter Of Two Rap O Cons!
They Must've Created Her Character In The Early 2000's When White People 1st Heard Of The Term Bling Bling.. After Lil Wayne And The Cash Money Millionaire Came Out The Song Bling Bling.. After Black Folks Had Bee Sayin' That Term For Years! Lol
So her parents jay-z and beyonce lol
Can we get new Black characters who aren't hyper-anti-stereotypes? Not every Black person is a genius. This also doesnt mean they are dumb. I feel like white writers feel like they have to overcompensate on Black character's intelligence.
Am I the only one who thinks that her girlfriend Mercury is more interesting ? From her name to the ones of her parents, I always thought Bling! to be too much of a cliché.
They made Mercury gay? I thought she had a crush on Wither.
She did
Pretty sure everyone is gay in the X-Men these days...wish I was joking
I think she's supposed to be bisexual, but all these creators are in love with the "she was secretly a lesbian all along" trope for some reason 🙄
@@blackphoenix77 Yeah, I'm hoping once the Krakoa story wraps up it will be revealed they were all pod people and the real characters are in storage somewhere. And I have nothing against a gay character. Anole and Wiccan and Hulkling are all good characters. I just don't like when a character is flipped. We can literally read their thoughts. Mercury never had any lesbian thoughts I can remember.
Every black new character is gay
Omg who wrote this character smh
Okay you had me at the character till you went with the whole she's a genius intellect can build any machines computer hacker MacGyver that's so corny to tack on a whole list of stuff that a character do not need that's corny I can copy other people's powers this is how you ruin an actual good character starting off fresh
Ugh...”bling” and someone was too lazy to learn how to draw black people so we end up with this Bart Simpson looking person.
its ugly
I think this character is wack.
Is it just me, or is every other black character gay in comics?
This whole character is a disaster. Her look in its self is offensive.
Cringe. Somebody needs to be smacked for that name and back story.
This character sounds lame. They should put her in the category with eye boy and beak. Oya is more interesting then this character
Okay, I'm really tired of this sexuality thing in the comics! These are comics dammit! The only reason grown ups read comics is to get away from reality. Marvel needs to get off this shit already! Blend you promoting this shit! Rest man!
What's up with many of these new characters being gay? Seems like pandering also. Marvel is trying way hard to push gay characters but yet can't push the black characters as well. That's why I liked mcduffie's books better. They were gay characters that weren't three in your face just because
