Awesome
There's gonna be a pond family reunion
Do a history of sabertooth
I vote X-Men Origins: Nightcrawler(the backstory of Azazel and Mystique gave birth to their son Kirk Wagner the Nightcrawler)
Bishop story
Kurt may have a demonic appearance but he has a heart of an angel
That's not really true. Nightcrawler has become a prop to make other characters look good. He's still friends with mutants who are willing to kill people.
Thank goodness for this comment!
@@gaki8844 It's true
AAAAAAHHHHHHH!
For reals man. When I use to watch the show I felt bad for him but he ended up being my favorite one out of all of them. Not only that he looks badass in that show back in the 90/00's
I have to admit Nightcrawler's portrayal in "X-Men: Apocalypse" was genuinely a pretty cool part of that deficient movie. Kodi Smit-McPhee, the actor who played him, is a truly phenomenal and underrated young actor that knew how to capture the personality of the Kurt from the comics and 2000's movies. I also loved his portrayal of Oskar/Owen in the romantic horror film "Let Me In"
He was pretty good 👍
Do you think that actor who played him should play the MCU version of Nightcrawler?
@@quentinfogger5755yes
@@quentinfogger5755 my favorite recommendation for a Nightcrawler for MCU would always be Asa Butterfield.
I loved Nightcrawler in the movies. One thing they got right.
You forgot about his tail being Prehensile, his ability to Shadow Blend, and that even with his training in the circus his flexibility is insane.
Also didn't mention his ability to stick to walls
Without
Also, nothing about the Neyaphem and the brimstone dimension?
@@lilshabaz1862Azrael is not his father anymore luckily
@@meswoopnoseenothinghow does that work?
His X2 White house scene is still one of my favorite movie moments of all time
Me too, I will always remember and love that opening scene.
Likewise he’s one of my favorite xmen in general but his scene in that movie is one of my top 10 favorite superhero fight scnes
Thank you so much. Nightcrawler is not only my all time favorite X Men character. But he is such a underrated character it is borderline criminal.
I never watched the X-Men animated show but based on the one thing I saw of him in it. So trusting, hopeful and forgiving. The religious version of his backstory I’ve heard is so wonderful
It's almost a requirement for his character. Without his morals, Nightcrawler could one shot most characters who aren't incredibly durable and without a strong healing factor.
So, Batman?
Cool religious moment in the comic. Uncanny X-Men 159 is the first time they fight Dracula. When they realize who they're fighting, Wolverine pops a claw on each hand and makes a cross only to get swatted away. Dracula tells him it's pointless if you have no religious faith. Then Nightcrawler grabs two stakes and let's Dracula know that they are not lost for "...I believe" and shuts him down temporarily with his own cross.
I think Nightcrawler is criminally underrated and needs some more attention. I wonder who would play him in the MCU. 🤔
Timmothee chalamet 😂😂😂
That would be cool and interesting
I think it should be the same actor who played him in X-Men Apocalypse and X-Men Dark Phoenix since this would be similar to Charlie Cox reprising his role as Daredevil in the MCU
That would be great, too.
Tony Jaa... let it sink in....🤔😁
Just wanna point out how awesome his adopted mom was, making him more disciplined and toughening him up when he was chased down, instead of feeling sorry for him.
Nightcrawler and gambit are two of my favorite X-men and I hope they reach the pop culture status that Wolverine and cyclops have
Nightcrawler is also canonically Catholic.
For me, my first time seeing Nightcrawler I was playing X-Men Mutant Academy 2 and I instantly became intrigued by his design, powers & character arc. I admire his swordsmanship. 💯
Wolverine: "Living with a condition like yours must be pretty hard, right, son?"
Nightcrawler: "Yeah. It's amazing how many person can hate germans"
Wolverine: 😐
such an underated character he isn’t used enough
I vote X-Men Origins: Nightcrawler(the backstory of Azazel and Mystique gave birth to their son Kirk Wagner the Nightcrawler)
We need a standalone nightcrawler movie
He's one of my favorite X-Men.
Thanks for this! Nightcrawler has always been my favorite X-Man since I was a kid. Proud to say I have that original Nightcrawler mini! I was around 13 when it came out, so…
Nightcrawler is one of my favorite X-Men member! Are you going to cover the new X-Men Blue Origins about him?
What I’ve always found fascinating is that most X-men and they’re villains have names that sound like they were self named as teenagers. Not a bad thing, maybe because teen years are usual when mutants develop their powers.
Watching X-Men first Class I had wondered if Azazel and Mystique where his parents. Omg! This is the first confirmation I ever got for that
Well your right about mystique
my favorite X-Men! favorite superpower also! would love to see more Nightcrawler in modern media
Nightcrawler needs his own stand-alone game, at this point.
Grew up with this channel! Love Nightcrawler
I wish they would do a video on sabretooth. He’s an awesome wolverine villain.
Nightcrawler is one of the most popular Marvel characters in the Marvel history and he is best known as the member of the X-Men.
His also my favourite
Why didn't you mention in the powers and abilities his prehensile tail? or his wall-crawling abilities?
Kurt has to be introduced to street level. I need to see him with Daredevil. Their required Hero Vs Hero fight would be great.
Nice
He’s taking over as Spider-Man. Check out UNCANNY SPIDER-MAN. Late September.
@@juandelossantos1866 Yessir. I’m just hoping he starts spending more time away from the X-Men. All X characters would benefit from a split after the Krakoa project fails.
Rogue & Gambit should be sent to space with Captain Marvel. Gambit/Captain Marvel combos would be interesting 🤔
@@Marx1684 the hellfire gala was crazy! It went down!!
Always touched whenever we talk about nightcrawlers origins.
thanks for this, always loved this character as a kid.
Just wanted to say, love your channel!
Although I hate the retcon of his birth, I won’t let that stop me from loving Nightcrawler! 😂 and pushing and advocating for solo nightcrawler projects
Im always surprised how Nightcrawler is so many people favorite X Men, yet his publication and live action portrayals is so limited.
This was great! Thanks! Would love to see Colossus talked about.
Nightwing and nightcrawler would be best friends
My all time favorite marvel character!! Been waiting for this video and it didn't disappoint can't wait to see him in the MCU!!!
My favorite x man and second favorite hero
Brilliantl creation powers costume and origin are all so striking
Nightcrawler is the only Marvel Hero I collect (I'm generally a villains fan), and I absolutely adore him. The Devil Inside / The Winding Way arc is another one that was just... *chefs kiss*
That... kind of makes sense. He has a very awesome villainous character design despite being an all-around nice guy.
Kurt is my favorite character of the x men
I love Nightcrawler!
He’s my fav x men😁
Thank you for doing a video on him
I have been waiting for you guys to do this, what seems "forever". Yeassss! 🙏
X-men Unlimited issue #4 is another good Nightcrawler origin issue.
My FAVORITE X-Men! I was hoping you were going into more details abour other dimension he visits while teleporting. It's always been a little unclear to me. Love the channel.
Was searching for a variant nightcrawler video a few days ago thank god 😁
I love Nightcrawler. He's one kf my favorite members of the X-Men.
Ok, the list of Nightcrawler reads are: Giant sized X-Men #1, Amazing X-Men #1-5: the quest for Nightcrawler, Excalibur Vol 1-#42-46, Nightcrawler miniseries (1985), Age of X-Men: The Amazing Nightcrawler #1-5.
As a kid I grew up evangelical and there wasn't much I could watch. Nightcrawler was my favorite X-man because despite his devilish appearance he loved everyone and tried to speak strength and wisdom to his friends. I feel like that is what a real man of God and Nightcrawler embodies that perfectly. Loving people even when they fear and hate you
I’d like to think to myself that his teleportation powers weren’t used for the first time to save his sister but to save himself as an infant when his mother threw him down the water fall. Obviously an unconscious use of his powers being an infant but an infant can still feel fear which usually activates powers.
Thank You!
One of the best origin stories I ever seen. I must say though, Mystique definitely ain’t a mother I’d be proud of, chick handed out that 😼 like groceries at Publix.
Morning!
I don't believe they have done him justice yet in live action. He could be so much better
Marvel should have a Nightcrawler and Daredevil crossover.
Cool!
Awesome I love nightcrawler
Highly underrated, technically, he could take out most of the X-Men if he wanted/needed to, including Wolverine.
Stefan is giving me Loki vibes. Jealous of his brother.
I am here because Nightcrawler is getting more Spotlight in X-Men 97 and he is a permanent member .
Wow I thought u guys already did this
Awesome
crazy to think that this needs some huge major updates only after 8 months of release... lol...
I LOVE the amazing X-Men! I started to collect them and read the, because of Nightcrawler. There’s also a comic where it has the nightcrawler from the x men movie on the cover and it’s about him. I love Nightcrawler, he’s very underrated.
I would love to see a history of Sunfire as well! He's my favourite character but doesn't appear much sadly, would love to know more about him!
One of my favorite x-men..esp the toys…they do him no Justice!
The circus backstory makes more sense, with Kurt's, gymnastic skills.
I need a history of Storm, she's underrated and a true badass
X-Men Unlimited #4 has amazing art and a really great origin story for Nightcrawler and Rogue in regards to their relationship to Mystique and Graydon Creed.
oops im too early this time - 46 seconds after posting
Can you'll please do a top 10 fire characters and ice characters separately for both Marvel and DC.
Nightcrawler my 2nd favorite X-Men character
One of my favorite X-men of all time
Nightcrawler is my favourite x-man since X-2 movie and I can see myself in him.
Can you do the history of magneto, zorro, judge dredd, Cassie hack, qwenpool, hit monkey, vamperrella, moon girl & devil dinosaur and league of extraordinary gentlemen
would love if you covered Sleepwalker's origin. imo, so under rated in the Marvel universe.
If to see him in certain card games. He's very cool
Night crawler is hella underrated
also the best character in the X-Men Arcade game 😁
Iron Monger, Yellow Jacket 🐝, Ghost 👻 and Malekith The Accursed are O.P.!!!
A history of Gambit and or Rogue please and thank you.
Uhh I think you forgot to mention when nightcrawler reunited with his birth mother many times.
He forgot so much key stuff
One of the Mutie GOATs
The SMELL OF BRIMSTONE EVERYTIME HE TELEPORTS😢😢😢
I always thought Nightcrawler was cool! Nice video! BAMF!
Can you do a history of magneto, please? 🙏
Nightcrawler is my 5th favorite X-Men
You forgot to mention, he can stick to any surface, like Spiderman.
Nightcrawler is my third favorite X-Men.
I forget which issue but it’s the one where xforce is trying to stop the people building nimrod. During the age of x or house and powers of x series. Nightcrawler, literally just keeps spewing and dying over and over again until he is able to reach the nimrod and sabotage it. Like straight up just kept diving head first into dead until he figured out the most efficient path to get everyone there safely. That’s got to be a jarring experience and he did it without a second thought. Or when he and Logan ported into space near the surface of the sun. What an epic moment
Please do a history of Animal Man video. He’s easily DC’s most underrated super hero and he deserves some recognition especially since it’s the first story Grant Morrison wrote for DC and it was phenomenal
The best X-Men member of all time finally gets his own dedicated video!
Finally my favorite character gets some love
Nightcrawler is my all-time favorite Marvel mutant
Do a history of Ted Kord Blue Beetle
Loved Nightcrawler since a child (was introduced by the Xmen Arcade beatem up) and the fact he has the same name as me but spelled with a C.
Can you do a history of colossus, please 🙏?
Now I wonder who’s the better acrobat Nightcrawler or Nightwing
Nightcrawler is my favorite
I don't know if what I will say to be off topic. Mystique and Destiny were canonically wives. Here's the problem. About his origins, he was the son of Mystique and Azazel. And how will the writers handle his true story if those women are already given their marriage status after a long time their relationship was subtext? And Mystique's other marriage with various guys? So complicated
Nightcrawler is my favorite X-man.
In the future, could you please do a video of the most powerful colossus moments? For example, the time when Colossus had the powers of the juggernaut to fight the juggernaut or when Colossus became one of the five who got possessed by the Phoenix force in the Avengers vs X-men storyline please🙏?
