I love looking at forgotten Golden Age characters. This weirdo is just a guy who insisted on dressing up like an old man to fight crime. Why? I have no idea. / comictropes
Hinduism did have a murderous cult who were active for about 450 years named the Thuggees. Thuggee members worshipped Kali and sacrificed victims by strangulation. They would also rob them. The name Thuggee itself gave English the word ‘thug’.
Sarpan You know what? I agree, that was probably what the writer was trying to explain - the Kali worshipping Thuggee cult that was comprised of Muslims, Hindi and other religions. It just wasn’t spelled out well. Good catch.
I find that if you want to know the inspiration for a comic book story, just look at the movies of the time. In this case, Gunga Din, which features the Thuggee.
ComicTropes The Thuggee were also known as the Deceivers. Largely because they could infiltrate a caravan or other group that way. Not all that different from the Hashishien, ninja or spec ops.
Mr. Whiskers, walking the night streets, thinking to himself Rorschach style. Nobody else had the courage to dress as an old man, so he had to do it..Couple of months later all the teens on twitter posting quotes by Mr. Whiskers, dressing up like old men, doing tik toks..
"Death, the worst of the curses." I laughed really hard at that, and with not an ounce of shame. Absolutely love your channel and wish you the very best 😁
Golden age comics are alwaya so great to learn! Such a different time in comics. Can only imagine what they would do with these characters now. Have a huge crossover event linking the universes of Hip Knox, Captain Fearless, Sergeant Spook, and Mister Whiskers. What a team up it would be
There was an issue of Animal Man during Grant Morrison's legendary (and very strange) run where he ends up in a Hades-like limbo of lost comic characters who have been written out of continuity and are waiting to be reinvented, where you encounter characters like the Red Bee and the Gay Blade. It's therefore canon that there _is_ a place where these forgotten Golden Age characters hang out together. (Since Grant Morrison wrote himself into the story and had a discussion with Animal Man where he not only broke the fourth wall, he pissed on it and danced on the rubble, Grant Morrison himself technically became canon. They actually killed him off in an issue of Suicide Squad.)
"Hi, you caught me texting while driving!" That one cracked me up. I appreciate your even-handed consideration of these comics, and your careful consideration of comic topics. It's far better than some other comic channels that consist of some guy screaming at the viewer about comics. You're great!!!
I'm a Hindu. I was born one. I assure you dear viewers,The Diamond Of Taron isn't real. We haven't sacrificed anyone since the 30s so we're pretty peaceful these days. We're happy,tolerant pagans.
Man you should do a video on DC's Tarantula, the original Spiderman that precedes Marvel's Spider-Man by almost 20 years. Anyways amazing video as always
@@Clay3613 He was the first wall crawling, web slinging vigilante to be called Spiderman and yes he deserves the spotlight like countless other obscure characters that the people don't know of
I don't know how my son and I missed this video, but we DID. Having said that, you HAVE to go back to this style intro. We laughed at these every time! 😆 keep up the good work!
It was commonly believed by Europeans right up into the 19th century that Muslims worshipped a god called Baphomet. (The Templars were accused of having been corrupted into Baphomet-worship, in fact, and was the excuse used for their destruction.) In the early 20th century it would have been an easy mistake for an ignorant white man in the West to make to connect Baphomet-worship and Hinduism.
If there would have been one more story we would have gotten the secret to his gimmick: he was actually a cat named Mr. Whiskers who poses as a human. When the statue fell he used one his nine lives to take out the criminals.
I love stupid golden age characters on one hand what were they thinking? But you don't seen ideas like these anymore mostly because they're dumb but I can't say that some aren't enjoyable.
Hah! Great opening "oh hi!" Skit. I love the timing of the tire skid & the crash sfx lines up to spider-Chris under a pole of metal & pouring water. Sooo... I'm gonna choose to believe it was intentional. 😁
Now, a real all-star team-up would be Mr. Whiskers and Madame Fatal. The two would use their weird dress-up gimmick to sneak around as a "couple" (a couple of two men in costumes). Heck, Whiskers could call "her" Brandy.
So glad I found this channel! Satisfies my old comic book passion. Had $300 a month habit at one time. A wife and kids took care of that!😂😂😂 Thank you again for post these and always being interesting!!!!
That's a character that would be easy to re-imagine as something less stupid. A master of disguise who put on various costume to investigate. The old man could be a costume he put more often for one reason or another.
Jack Cole, creator of Plastic Man, also came up with elderly Granny Gumshoe, whose nemeses included Dr. Crud and his fleet of flying meat slicers, a murdering ventriloquist's dummy, the boneless escape-artist Mr. Worm and a guy who had a voodoo doll of the entire planet. She would go after 'em with baseball bats, hammers and axes.
I love your openings! They are always really funny! And I also love when you highlight these silly forgotten Golden Age -heroes-... well, maybe calling Mr Whiskers or Captain Fearless ”heroes” is a bit too much so let’s say Golden Age characters
Oh his name is Mr Whiskers and he looks like an old guy? Well an old man hero could be neat, you don’t get many old- oh wait, he just dresses up as an old dude, why?
Yo Chris I really appreciate your channel, I find myself anticipating each new episode, keep it up brother. I’ll keep reading comics (my faves on the bookshelf at least) peace
I have been binge watching these videos about useless golden age heroes! I want a comic where all these golden age heroes team up for a suicide squad type mission. In the first few pages every member of the squad would be killed and the rest of the issue would just be the authorities trying to identify the bodies.
Mr. Whiskers should have had a team-up with Madame Strange. An actor who dressed up as an old woman. They could have pretended to be an old couple out on a stroll and beat up muggers.
Dress up as Mr. Whiskers as often as needed? Ha! I'll dress up as Mr. Whiskers even MORE often than needed! As often as possible is more like it! I'd love to see Alan Moore reboot this character in a Twilight of the Superheroes style revamp. He's now an old man who either dresses as an even OLDER man. Or, he dresses as a young guy, only to surprise people that he's actually a senior citizen. At least until he has an existential crisis, nearing the end of his life. Policy changes have made it so he was kicked out of the agency and lost his pension. He tries to go back into acting with his disguise kit, but his "method acting" gets taken overboard so that no one wants to work with him. He ends up out of work, homeless, and on heroin. Or maybe he's just an old drunk. He's in bad health and has lost his teeth and hair. He's forced to live on as a flesh and blood ironic joke; a bald man nicknamed Mr. Whiskers. Alopecia has even made it so he can't grow a beard or mustache. He now uses his disguise kit (what's left of it) to try and hide the effects of drug and alcohol use for when he panhandles drug money on the street. One day, a group of LDS Chruch type men going door to door see him in an alley, and offer him a bag of food. He accepts. They then give him a pamphlet on their religion. Turns out they aren't Mormon at all. They're from a modernized version of the cult from this story. The same way there were one Inquisitors who tortured people in certain real life religions, there were once a small sect of bad seeds, but the current strain of followers aren't like that at all. Still, in his aging drug addled mind, they're still a threat. He plans on going on in a blaze of glory by bombing their church with a TNT vest. He's stopped by one of his old partners in the FBI. They try to get him to turn his life around. They offer for him to stay with them. And he turns everything around, at first. Until he learns years of drug use have ruined his organs and he's dying. He puts on the Mr. WHISKERS outfit one last time, before walking into the Hudson River. The camera pans out and we never see if he actually drowns or not but are left to assume he did. The end. This will be made. It must be made. It is now my life goal. Someone get Alan Moore on the phone. Tell him I have a pitch.
I am not going to lie. I like the concept of using whisker as a name. "Whisker," sounds like one of those strange names we hear people having out there that could exist. I heard stranger. "Hornbuckle." "Dr. Strange Love."
That big scene of the cult's idol getting pushed over on them is such a highlight moment that they preview it on the opening page... was this before or after Batman did the exact same thing in one of his early issues?
I hate to bash to a fellow comics TH-camr, but I think by the actor giving up disguise kit to join the FBI, I think they mean he gave it up in private life. Community theater runs in the family. So growing up, we knew a guy who was a cop. When he got promoted to Undercover field officer, he was told to give up the stage just on the off chance a drug dealer or something just happened to see him in a play or something. A few years later, he got promoted to Desk Sargent. He was allowed to return to the stage and he found that because he spent so much time inventing on the details on the fly for his covers he was now a much more skilled improv actor/comic.
Such a missed opportunity. The premise could have been an actor who can infiltrate all sorts of gangs and situations by using his make up artistry and acting skills to be a different character every episode, or even within the same adventure to baffle the baddies.
The Golden Age, when all that matters is moving the plot forward as quickly as possible. The reason why I think a lot of this might work is because both homeless people and old men are treated as invisible and irrelevant by society.
Concerning the password: yes, it's a dumb password. But in this era, assuming the ignorance of outsiders was a common basis for security schemes in all sorts of fiction (and probably in real life).
Another great episode and all this fantastic art work makes me wish I had some kinda artistic skill. But I do have an idea for you could look at if you do another Frank Miller piece, Dynamites run of Robocop: Last Stand in particular. Its not the worst example of the Millerness but he has a habit of either writing a great robo story or a really bad one. This is the latter.
i don't think the actual concept behind the character is bad; there's plenty of old TV shows with the idea of a character who's an amazing makeup artist who can look like anyone or anything. and i'm pretty sure there was even a batman comic where bruce pulled the old man trick so some thugs would think he was an easy target.
I guess I have the contemporary mindset. When I see something strange or a group doing something odd in another culture my reaction is not to jerk back and be afraid of it. My reaction is look it up or find someone from that part of the world to ask, "What the f*ck are they doing?"
Hey Chris, I started watching your videos a couple of days ago (before watching the new spider-man movie and it reignites my comics love again, sorry not sorry) and I noticed that your videos have kind of a 80s~90s TV shows' vibe, is it intentional? Because I'm loving it.

You not seen Temple of Doom? That is basically a documentary of Kali worshippers! (Joke)
I thought this was going to be about a crime-fighting cat based on the title!
I am very disappointed that there is no crime fighting cat.
I felt let down by that same thing.
I named my Xbox gamertag: "Weaponcat" once, but my friends all made fun of me so I had to change it! : P
That's the gritty reboot of Toonces.
I was hoping it would be the cartoon cat from Last Action Hero.
I’m waiting for a Batman/Mr Whiskers Team Up!
It's funny because he could dress up as different people but he just does Mr. Whiskers.
That could be kind of cool if he was always changing faces. A master of disguise, kind if like a heroic Chameleon.
I've got to admit, after almost 50 years of reading comics, I had never heard of this guy. Thanks for the intro ... I think :-)
This is begging for a gritty reboot.
Found those scans I mentioned. I'll dark and gritty reboot that alright (Don't expect anything, I'll probably change my mind in a few hours) :p
I would throw good money at that.
A gritty KITTY reboot. It LITTERally writes itself!
Let's just gritty reboot(tm) every old as fuck obscure character who nobody remembers.
I can't wait until the gritty reboot of Millie The Model.
Mr. Whiskers, walking the night streets, thinking to himself Rorschach style. Nobody else had the courage to dress as an old man, so he had to do it..Couple of months later all the teens on twitter posting quotes by Mr. Whiskers, dressing up like old men, doing tik toks..
I hope this becomes a regular ongoing series of silly superheroes.
These ridiculous Golden Age character stories are hilarious! Keep 'em coming! Also, don't text and drive again!
"Death, the worst of the curses." I laughed really hard at that, and with not an ounce of shame.

I accidentally sent a prayer to Mr. Whiskers one time.
it was answered by Mr Am of the Little Orphan Annie comic strip.
and very enigmatically, one might add.
I'm a Hindu. I was born one. I assure you dear viewers,The Diamond Of Taron isn't real. We haven't sacrificed anyone since the 30s so we're pretty peaceful these days. We're happy,tolerant pagans.

Man you should do a video on DC's Tarantula, the original Spiderman that precedes Marvel's Spider-Man by almost 20 years. Anyways amazing video as always
Other than having a "web-gun", he's nothing like Spider-Man.

Your vids on golden age superheroes are just fantastic. Truly entertaining and quite amusing. Thanks Chris!
I don't know how my son and I missed this video, but we DID. Having said that, you HAVE to go back to this style intro. We laughed at these every time! 😆 keep up the good work!
It’s not very often I come across one of your older videos I haven’t seen. This masterpiece however somehow passed me by
Man, I'm addicted to your weird Golden Age Comics stuff. Funny shit. Sick. Laughing my arse off.
My personal favorite from golden age is the Spirit, although I also like Golden age Wonder Woman as well.
Best “you caught me...” intro yet.
No mention of the fact that the cultists yell ‘Allah! Allah!’ Despite supposedly being Hindu? lol
at 05:48 to be exact
Conflating Islam and Hinduism is almost a trope of Golden Age comics, especially the Hashashim (Muslim) and the Thuggees (Hindu).
Strange though that this comic villianized the Indians, most adventure comics treated them with more respect than the Chinese or Africans.
It was commonly believed by Europeans right up into the 19th century that Muslims worshipped a god called Baphomet. (The Templars were accused of having been corrupted into Baphomet-worship, in fact, and was the excuse used for their destruction.) In the early 20th century it would have been an easy mistake for an ignorant white man in the West to make to connect Baphomet-worship and Hinduism.
I like that your channel is growing so much recently

Sounds like the name for someone's cat.

First thing that came to mind seeing the thumbnail was the Auntie Donna Mr Whiskers song

"Do a barrel roll"
Is still my favourite meme
That is seriously the FUCKING. BEST. INTRO. EVER.
I laughed hard.

I lost it over the FBI application sketch!

My new favorite hero!!! Thanks!
great vid Chris! love your content, can't wait for those inktober streams if your doing that again.
An old man detective who kicks ass would have been much cooler than an FBI agent who disguises as an old man...

Greetings from Brazil dude, I really wanted Eduardo to win hahahaha !!! nice show as always !!Thank you
When I heard the name Mr. Whiskers it made me think of the show Brandy and Mr. Whiskers! 😂
I'd love to see you cover the Legion Great Darkness Saga.

Can’t wait for the Mr Whiskers movie franchise.
Your video had me cracking up with laughter. Thanks, I needed that. More please.
Fantastic as always dear friend
love the invisible phone
Great episode as usual
Great episode!
Characters like these ought to replace all the characters in the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
YAAAAY! I won \o/ ! Great, very funny episode!
Oh his name is Mr Whiskers and he looks like an old guy? Well an old man hero could be neat, you don’t get many old- oh wait, he just dresses up as an old dude, why?
LOL. So many easier ways to comp that car scene.
Love your goofy character profiles
At some point Jim Clay becomes the disguise for Mr. Whiskers.
In spite of the siliness, I think overall the art is solid.

I thought he was going to dress up as a cat...
“BEHOLD!! FOR I HAVE THE POWER OF A NORMAL MAN!!”

Such a missed opportunity.
The premise could have been an actor who can infiltrate all sorts of gangs and situations by using his make up artistry and acting skills to be a different character every episode, or even within the same adventure to baffle the baddies.
I'd love to see you do a video on golden age character, Gumbo Galahad!

Great work on the intro! 👍
Nah, not a fetish for dressing up as a old man, my man just wants to eat on the senior menu
I half expected a lame cat gimmick from the name. I think this was better.
peak intro
"Mr. Whiskers", that's a cat name if I ever heard one, even by the year in which this comic was made
"Oh hi"
That inro was fantastic tho
10/10
i don't think the actual concept behind the character is bad; there's plenty of old TV shows with the idea of a character who's an amazing makeup artist who can look like anyone or anything. and i'm pretty sure there was even a batman comic where bruce pulled the old man trick so some thugs would think he was an easy target.
I wish you'd do a vid on Hillman's The Heap.
