Here is my pitch for a Marvel Studios Night Thrasher mini series on Disney+ Could be 6, 8, 9 episodes this is the MCU version of Night Thrasher and a possible spin-off series starring MCU New Warriors let’s start with the topic Dwayne Taylor aka Night Thrasher is Marvel’s Batman if you read his original story the similarities are there you could base the story arcs on Family Ties and Role Models and that is the Night Thrasher, let’s New Warriors be MCU’s version of DC’s Titans on HBO Max but it a lot better. I really want to hear your thoughts
Grew up in the early 90s and this was the first Black comic hero I was introduced to. He will always have a special place in my heart. Plus his outfit is badass.
I know people say that Moon Knight is Marvel's Batman, but come on it's clearly Night Thrasher. 1. His parents were killed in front of him as a child. 2. He spent his life training to wage a war on crime. 3. He's rich and uses his money on his war on crime. 4. He's brooding and not afraid to use violence. I can just see him in a movie or TV show saying, "I'm Night Thrasher."
I don't support the Moon Knight comparison either. Comparing Moon Knight to Batman just because one of his personalities is rich and Moon Knight uses gadgets is too easy. People also like to compare Batman and Iron Man, because both Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark are rich. Batman and Iron Man have nothing in common. Also, Bruce Wayne was never an alcoholic.
Thrasher is also highly intelligent and is good with prep-time and also later adopts his own ward after their grandmother gets murdered (another member of the New Warriors called Rage and who was a 13 year old kid in the body of an adult). One big difference between Thrasher and Batman however is that Batman maintains a reputation of being a scary individual and a lot of people are legit afraid of him whereas with Night Thrasher people tend to dismiss and ridicule him because he has a skateboard. Of course Night Thrasher doesn't care about what others think of him and people often underestimate his abilities because they don't take him seriously. I mean Maestro and the Collector had to take him out of the Contest of Champions tournament because he wasn't playing their game and was close to dismantling their whole tournament and defeating them.
I am so frustrated rn bc my memory is so bad. There are too many names for me to keep track of… I can’t tell who had babies with who or who died & I’m only like 4 minutes in. It’s so aggravating. Not your fault merry, keep doing what you’re doing. You are amazing.
Wasn't there supposed to be a new warriors movie coning out? And thank you for covering Night Thrasher! He always reminds me of that weird early 90s Daredevil armor.
Yea it got canceled. It would be hard to do that series, bc most of the members aren't anything new, escept maybe Speedball or Nova, but Nova is coming in the next GotG movie.
@@pnut3844able and they had added that one phone girl as squirrel girl. I wouldn't mind seeing the pilot. But i had my doubts it was going to be any good.
Holy S! I haven't thought of Night Thrasher for years! I had a ton of his books, unfortunately the box i had them in got soaked in a flood and its contents destroyed. Thank you for this highly nostalgic video.
they should make it so silliouette can use her legs when using the dark force but it drains physical energy to do so so she isn't always peraplegic and can keep her muslces fit enough to stabnd and fight using the magic to give her top noth shape.. When she walks the long crutches can turn to nightsticks/batons. And they should make it that the suits were being made before the incident and when the incident happened they no longer wanted to wear the suits - so he had them stashed!!!
I've liked Night Thrasher since I first encountered the character in the first issue of the original New Warriors. I forgot how convoluted his backstory is. Still, he's a good character when his costume is designed correctly.
Can you do history of Ironheart, Jane Foster Thor, Eric Masterson_AKA_Thunderstrike, Amadeus_Cho, the Griever, Pepper Potts AKA Rescue and the Agents of Atlas along with Crescent, Morgan_Le_Fey, White Fox and Luna Snow?
Even though I disliked their take on Nova (I had followed his original series and this never felt like him to me) and not a fan of the art (except in their Thor 1st appearance) but Nightthrasher felt like one of the few new (post early 80's) heroes to seem good to me. Him and Darkhawk I thought were on their way to being right up their with top 2nd tier heroes like Punisher, Falcon, Nova (in his original run), etc.
I did enjoy the new warriors, but yeah both thrasher and hawk seemed like break out stars. I remember seeing them together for the first time in a spiderman story (along with moon knight and punisher) and it convinced me to start picking up their books. I only think the characters fell off because they failed to create memorable villains. Their villains fell victim to Image style designs that were popular then, but mostly are now kind of generic and not memorable.
Thanks for the video, sir. I am writing a crossover project and decided to make DC's Red X an alternate identity for Night Thrasher, but did not think it might work. Watching this, I found a way to do so. As you might discern from my name, I am not as versed in Marvel as you. I am very thankful for your videos as it has made me appreciate Marvel lore a lot more.
Can you do history of Master Pandemonium, Sleepwalker, D'Spayre, Chthon, Mephisto, Dormammu, Clea, Shuma-Gorath, Nightmare, Baron Mordo, the Ancient One, Agamotto and Pkzkrfmknna along with Firestar and Vance_Astrovik AKA Justice?
It kinda is night thrasher's fault for silhouette's crippling, the fact that he stopped her brother shows that he didn't trust him as a partner. Like he could of changed his aim to disarm the officer instead of killing him like merry said. But thrasher had to get involved because he didn't trust his partner to do the right thing.
How do you do this much explaining of Night Thrasher and not explain that he did a good chunk of his crime fighting on an ARMORED SKATEBOARD. AND IT WORKS!
Can you do history of the Elementals(Hellfire, Magnum, Hydron and Zephyr), Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Inferno, Victorious, Gambit, Moondragon, Phyla_Vell and Genis-Vell along with the Supreme Intelligence, Mole_Man and Angel/Archangel along with Exodus and Ex-Nhilo?
Are you going to do history of lesser known characters like Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Ultimo, Inferno, Victorious, Flerken, Blacklash, Deathlok, Elematrix, Vertigo, Titanium_Man, Crimson Dynamo, Dreadknight, Hypnotia, Blizzard, Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Starhawk, Fixer, Whirlwind, Chemistro, Whiplash, the Controller, Madam_Masque, Count_Nefaria, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Century, Lore and Technovore?
What do you think is the best thing about the Night_Trasher in the comics and do you think we will see him in the MCU? Which one of his powerful abilities do you think is the best? Who do you think is the DC version of Marvel's Night_Trasher?
Can you do history of the Living_Brain, the Elementals, Cyclone, Hydro Man, Molten Man, the Spot, Sandman, Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Night Thrasher is COOL. He, Speedball and Silhouette have always been my favorite New Warriors. Also, unlike today's Marvel Comics, Dwayne and Silhouette's stories never evolved around their melanine levels or "muh raycizm." But then again they were too busy to actually make a difference.
That back story definitely would not fly in todays climate. I guess that’s why they abandon most of the new warriors, because all of their back stories aren’t so “modern”
I thought I knew about Night Thrasher, turns out I don’t. Who was I thinking of? Who was saved by their future self? Edit: Another MM video reminded me: It's Nightwatch.
What do you think Night_Trasher would be like if he teamed up with Ironheart since they both rely on their suits to survive in the battlefield? Who do you think would win between the two of them? Can you do history of Ironheart?
That's a good question. Personally, my money is on Night Thrasher. While Ironheart's suit is more advanced and she's more intelligent, Night Thrasher has far more experience and combat skill.
Anybody think Firestar, Angelica Jones, could come to the MCU as the sister of Michelle Jones, aka, MJ? Might be a cool way to introduce the character.
How was Night_Trasher powerful with that suit since he is not a child of one of the ladies from the temple of the Dragon's Breath meaning he has no special powers?
By the way, Marvel Marvellite is the best channel on the subject. Comics explained is a thief dresses as a historian. You on the other (left) hand (muhha pun intended) YOU are the real historian.
Silhouette's biological father is Andrew Chord but she never knew him growing up. Night Thrasher's father was Daryl Taylor but after his parents were killed, Andrew Chord became his legal guardian and raised him.
Did you know that in my marvel universe series show the catalytic events that lead to Civil War goes pretty much the same until the point where Nitro runs away and Speedball together with Night Trasher pursue him for a while before Night Trasher tackles Nitro into a buss but just like in the comics Nitro would cause a massive explosion. Night Trasher was killed while Speedball’s powers allowed him and while Justice managed to save the New Warriors’ life by creating a force field it did knock them all into comas and hospitalizing them for the majority of Civil War. Speedball ended up being the only one of the New Warriors left and therefore goes through with Civil War. However Night Trasher’s death would later be “retconned” so it’s revealed that it had been a skrull imposter that had blown up.
Woke Hollywood could have chosen this story and built up this character..... yet... they didn't..................................................................................................................................................... do you understand?

The New Warriors are my favorite superhero team... thank you for covering them here
Mine too!
You and me both.
I found another fan
I know people say that Moon Knight is Marvel's Batman, but come on it's clearly Night Thrasher.
1. His parents were killed in front of him as a child.
2. He spent his life training to wage a war on crime.
3. He's rich and uses his money on his war on crime.

I can just see him in a movie or TV show saying, "I'm Night Thrasher."
No, that's Nighthawk
I don't support the Moon Knight comparison either.

Batman and Iron Man have nothing in common.

@@sonpanchan I love Rage, especially in his '90s costume with the "Jason" mask and chains.
@@remc0s I think people compare them purely based off the names (Moon Knight/Dark Knight).
one of my favorite characters from the new warriors night thrasher he actually taught me how to skateboard as little kid or I taught myself whatever
Underrated character. I'd love a Disney+ or broadcast TV series for this guy and/or the New Warriors
I am so frustrated rn bc my memory is so bad. There are too many names for me to keep track of… I can’t tell who had babies with who or who died & I’m only like 4 minutes in. It’s so aggravating.
Not your fault merry, keep doing what you’re doing. You are amazing.
Night Thrasher is like if Casey Jones from TMNT met Batman. it's just awesome
Wasn't there supposed to be a new warriors movie coning out? And thank you for covering Night Thrasher! He always reminds me of that weird early 90s Daredevil armor.
It was supposed to be a show, but it’s been shelved since they couldn’t find a Network to air it on at that time.
Yea it got canceled. It would be hard to do that series, bc most of the members aren't anything new, escept maybe Speedball or Nova, but Nova is coming in the next GotG movie.
@@pnut3844able and they had added that one phone girl as squirrel girl. I wouldn't mind seeing the pilot. But i had my doubts it was going to be any good.
He is a close knock off of Batman. Probably my favorite marvel team. Still have to read the series
I love Night Trasher and the New Warriors. Such a big part of my childhood.
One if the most convoluted origin stories ever!
Holy S! I haven't thought of Night Thrasher for years! I had a ton of his books, unfortunately the box i had them in got soaked in a flood and its contents destroyed. Thank you for this highly nostalgic video.
Loved it! You said daughters of the dragon and I thought we’d get a peak at Coleen Wing and Misty Knight!
How is this not a movie yet
they should make it so silliouette can use her legs when using the dark force but it drains physical energy to do so so she isn't always peraplegic and can keep her muslces fit enough to stabnd and fight using the magic to give her top noth shape.. When she walks the long crutches can turn to nightsticks/batons. And they should make it that the suits were being made before the incident and when the incident happened they no longer wanted to wear the suits - so he had them stashed!!!
Bro your voice-overs in these videos are top notch as always
Thanks for another great video. Much ❤ as always
Man, Night Thrasher sounds like a black Batman or something. Great vid btw.
I'm getting to know them better day by day, but i love Night Thrasher.
I've liked Night Thrasher since I first encountered the character in the first issue of the original New Warriors. I forgot how convoluted his backstory is. Still, he's a good character when his costume is designed correctly.
Thanks for this video!
Please more long video of this nature
Can you do history of Ironheart, Jane Foster Thor, Eric Masterson_AKA_Thunderstrike, Amadeus_Cho, the Griever, Pepper Potts AKA Rescue and the Agents of Atlas along with Crescent, Morgan_Le_Fey, White Fox and Luna Snow?
They need to do a movie or series on Night Thrasher
Wow that was a lot. Ty.
Well, that covered some arcs that I never read. Thanks!
The New Warriors are an underrated team and I hate how Marvel keeps treating them like crap.
If Only Professor Hulk Would Come Here And Teach These New Warriors About Being Heroes Not Being Street Punks...
Even though I disliked their take on Nova (I had followed his original series and this never felt like him to me) and not a fan of the art (except in their Thor 1st appearance) but Nightthrasher felt like one of the few new (post early 80's) heroes to seem good to me. Him and Darkhawk I thought were on their way to being right up their with top 2nd tier heroes like Punisher, Falcon, Nova (in his original run), etc.
I did enjoy the new warriors, but yeah both thrasher and hawk seemed like break out stars.

Aye, as a first generation Cambodian American I’m glad to see they have a representative of us in the MCU
Thanks for the video, sir. I am writing a crossover project and decided to make DC's Red X an alternate identity for Night Thrasher, but did not think it might work. Watching this, I found a way to do so. As you might discern from my name, I am not as versed in Marvel as you. I am very thankful for your videos as it has made me appreciate Marvel lore a lot more.
This is the most bat#@$% crazy thing I ever heard. Ah, the 90s...
Thanks for the vid.
I have never heard of these characters and I HAVE TO READ THIS
Hey I was wonder could you do one on the squadron supreme
Can you do history of Master Pandemonium, Sleepwalker, D'Spayre, Chthon, Mephisto, Dormammu, Clea, Shuma-Gorath, Nightmare, Baron Mordo, the Ancient One, Agamotto and Pkzkrfmknna along with Firestar and Vance_Astrovik AKA Justice?

just gotten his Number 1 comic in the 90's not too bad of a read on issue 3
How do you do this much explaining of Night Thrasher and not explain that he did a good chunk of his crime fighting on an ARMORED SKATEBOARD.
AND IT WORKS!
Which also doubled as a shield.
Ah the 90s
A super hero named Speed Ball?!?! Wha?!?! Something tells me they knew damn well they were naming him after a hard drug combo.
Can you do history of the Elementals(Hellfire, Magnum, Hydron and Zephyr), Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Inferno, Victorious, Gambit, Moondragon, Phyla_Vell and Genis-Vell along with the Supreme Intelligence, Mole_Man and Angel/Archangel along with Exodus and Ex-Nhilo?
Do one on Speedball/Penance
New Warriors was definitely the best new team to come out of the 90’s
I really liked The New Warriors series...
The New Warriors were really popular in the 90s
When the brother comes in thats when Television starts. Before that is straight movies.
Hey Double-M,
Plz do an episode on 'Rage' & the new Captain America, Samuel Wilson.
Are you going to do history of lesser known characters like Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Ultimo, Inferno, Victorious, Flerken, Blacklash, Deathlok, Elematrix, Vertigo, Titanium_Man, Crimson Dynamo, Dreadknight, Hypnotia, Blizzard, Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Starhawk, Fixer, Whirlwind, Chemistro, Whiplash, the Controller, Madam_Masque, Count_Nefaria, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Would like to see this guy come to the MCU. He's cool. Something tell me that Kevin Hart would be right for the role of Night Thrasher.
Hell nah keep him away from the MCU lol
Nope
He's too old for him.
Nope because everyone will mistake Kevin Hart in the night Thrasher costume for a child
Too old
How is this good character not anywhere in marvel!
Night 🌙Thatcher Is totally Radical 👍🏿⭐👍🏿
Comics Fun Fact: The Avril Lavigne song "Sk8er Boi" was written about Night Thrasher.
Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?
What do you think is the best thing about the Night_Trasher in the comics and do you think we will see him in the MCU? Which one of his powerful abilities do you think is the best? Who do you think is the DC version of Marvel's Night_Trasher?
Can you do history of the Living_Brain, the Elementals, Cyclone, Hydro Man, Molten Man, the Spot, Sandman, Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Sweet 👍
Now i really want a namorita story...
How long till you do history of Firestar and Vance_Astrovik AKA Justice since no one has done an origin video of them?
Night Thrasher is COOL.
He, Speedball and Silhouette have always been my favorite New Warriors.
Also, unlike today's Marvel Comics, Dwayne and Silhouette's stories never evolved around their melanine levels or "muh raycizm."
But then again they were too busy to actually make a difference.
Please do Nightwatch(Marvel's version of Spawn).
How can he be Marvel's version of Spawn when they have nothing in common besides being Black?
@@kimbelsimpson7535 Their outfits do look similar.
@@OjukwuIsaac I don't see the resemblance.
@@kimbelsimpson7535 some people do though.
do hjacker next pls :D
Have you done a show on rage ?
That back story definitely would not fly in todays climate. I guess that’s why they abandon most of the new warriors, because all of their back stories aren’t so “modern”
Ye but they can reboot them
Ok…but why did he use the skateboard??
I thought I knew about Night Thrasher, turns out I don’t. Who was I thinking of? Who was saved by their future self?
Edit: Another MM video reminded me: It's Nightwatch.
My request would be Rage.
What do you think Night_Trasher would be like if he teamed up with Ironheart since they both rely on their suits to survive in the battlefield? Who do you think would win between the two of them? Can you do history of Ironheart?
That's a good question. Personally, my money is on Night Thrasher. While Ironheart's suit is more advanced and she's more intelligent, Night Thrasher has far more experience and combat skill.
Night thrasher is fun in Mcoc the online mobile game
“Thrashed by the night.”
~_~
If you covered Captain Marvel(mar-vell) would be awesome
Anybody think Firestar, Angelica Jones, could come to the MCU as the sister of Michelle Jones, aka, MJ? Might be a cool way to introduce the character.
How was Night_Trasher powerful with that suit since he is not a child of one of the ladies from the temple of the Dragon's Breath meaning he has no special powers?
Definitely underrated but needs more spotlight in Marvel.
This reminds me of the Shang Chi movie
I think this character hero called (NIGHT THRASHER) & the rest should be given the right to be part of the new Marvel cartoon shows.
By the way, Marvel Marvellite is the best channel on the subject. Comics explained is a thief dresses as a historian. You on the other (left) hand (muhha pun intended) YOU are the real historian.
Aren't Silhouette and Night Thrasher half siblings since they have the same father?
Silhouette's biological father is Andrew Chord but she never knew him growing up. Night Thrasher's father was Daryl Taylor but after his parents were killed, Andrew Chord became his legal guardian and raised him.
I thought night thrasher was paralyzed from the waste down
Did you know that in my marvel universe series show the catalytic events that lead to Civil War goes pretty much the same until the point where Nitro runs away and Speedball together with Night Trasher pursue him for a while before Night Trasher tackles Nitro into a buss but just like in the comics Nitro would cause a massive explosion.

However Night Trasher’s death would later be “retconned” so it’s revealed that it had been a skrull imposter that had blown up.
It's 'Dwayne "
I'm glad this one steys out of the mainstream, never liked this comic much or most the "heroes" in it.
What was up with the ladies from the temple of the Dragons breath and why did they want to produce offsprings with men from the outside world?
lmao dis
Woke Hollywood could have chosen this story and built up this character..... yet... they didn't..................................................................................................................................................... do you understand?
Seriously? A superheroine with crutches?! Why, how very politically correct. Ish.
No wonder this comic never became popular. This is both lame and boring and a little convoluted to boot
Mad ❤ for Thrash and the Warriors , Marvel's Batman... They should've used him in MCU but they'd rather race swap a white hero 😂
