The Guthries are like the mutant Weasleys

If Nando doesn't open the War Machine video with "Boom, you lookin' for this?" we riot.

HE‘S NIGH‘ INVULNERABLE WHILE BLASTING!!!!!!

[@TheLeosol]

One of my favorite issues as a teen was uncanny x-men 341 where Sam goes toe to toe with Gladiator. Lots of great art from Joe Madureira in that one.

For card/character synergies, I think it's worth noting Cannonball also works well with Professor X. Cards can't move into Professor X's location, whether it's full or not, so he can help set up a situation for Cannonball to destroy another card

I didn't make the connection until your backstory that him leaving rocks behind harkens back to his mining background, which is cool!

[@stevencooper564]

So Mirage and Cannonball are kinda like Spock and Kirk? Honestly, i love that dynamic in leadership, i should really read some more New Mutants.

[@marcgodley3064]

I remember reading an X-Force comic when I was a kid and being blown away by his character. I also remember being disappointed with his figure back in the day because he had no jet blast lol. He came with like a catapult 😂

One of my favorites this season, love the flavour in the ability.

All I need now is Karma for my full OG New Mutants deck. Something I like about Sunspot and Cannonball is how much of a bromance they have, but in my head canon , similar to Logan, Scott, & Jean, Roberto, Sam, & Izzy are in a throuple as well.

[@J.T.7]

Are you going to make videos about already existing cards too? That would be awesome!

[@ratedRamsey]

I have an Original Cannonball painting/sketch by Joe Jusko of him

[@HakiCritical]

Keep up the good work man, I appreciate this series

[@admiralsnaccbarr5514]

So glad you do these videos, I've been looking for this exact thing!

[@Axeloy]

im so glad that you're excited to talk about the thunderbolts! im so ready for those videos haha

[@ericjome7284]

Good coverage!

[@SuperThebillybob]

Really enjoyed this! Surprised nobody has really talked about using him with Prof X.

[@MattBarrIsTricky]

Got an ad right in the middle...

[@CarlosHernandez-xo7js]

I'm not very interested in the card, but the character sounds cool. I wanna see more of him in either the comics or a future audition to the MCU
