187 B - The End of Hydra? - World War Two - April 1, 1943

[@WorldWarTwo]

Now that Hydra has returned in the 21st century, can NATO handle them? Or should the Segovia Accords be annulled and super or enhanced powered individuals be tasked with fighting them?

You’ve never heard of the Marvel universe, Sgt Fury and Hydra?

[@mindwarp42]

(shakes head) The flaw in the Anti-Strucker Alliance was not taking advantage of all technology, scientific and mystical, at their disposal on all sides. It they had, they could have assembled an elite trio to defeat Hydra, possibly with an alternate as needed. Using time travel, the current top power trio could hav been brought back. Latest analysis indicates that might be the trio of DMC 5 Vergil, Red She-Hulk, and Dat Mango Sentinal, although information has been changing rapidly in recent months. Still, a new age of heroes would have indeed taken Strucker for a ride. #freemvc2

Look up Arch warhammer. He covers the horus heresy in such detail

[@tgreen1071]

A week by week series of vraks would be cool.... May take a bit long tho

[@tekoah2952]

Honestly was expecting anything too much but the amount of effort put into this bit makes it so much funnier after having context of the rest of show.

[@DrTssha]

Truly amazing. Absolutely incredible. This is fantastic storytelling.

[@WorldWarTwo]

Thanks DrTssha!

[@MagisterHenrik]

Thanks for this very anticipated elaboration in a much too often overlooked story that's in its day had enormous consequences on the further developments, not the least for tomorrow: April the 2nd, when so much was reversed.

[@WorldWarTwo]

@Henrik Glad you enjoyed it

[@DrTssha]

It's amazing how much difference a single day can make. Truly a time of super men, doing super things.

[@MagisterHenrik]

@@WorldWarTwo Loved it. You're fabulous!

[@sdelmonte]

I appreciate that deep dive but maybe it’s about time you finally let us know what Easy Company is up to. Great job, and I loved that Raiders Easter egg.

[@WorldWarTwo]

@Alex Spoiler: Easy company won't hit Europe for more than a year.

[@j3lny425]

Easy company was DC. Imagine Nick Fury and Sgt. Rock working together? Would have ended the war in 90 days.

[@petersparacino6445]

I love how this is still entertaining content, even though an april fools joke

[@WorldWarTwo]

@Peter Thanks, glad you liked it

[@alkoenig85]

Outstanding. Wonderful that these stories finally reach light.

[@WorldWarTwo]

Thanks Al, glad you enjoyed it

[@theshoot961]

Very important piece of history that our teachers will never admit to! Thank you, guys.

[@jaywaii3187]

Yo, you know Indy and team did their Marvel Comics research by bringing up the Brotherhood of the Spear (check out Jonathan Hickman's Secret Warriors (2009) and S.H.I.E.L.D (2010), great runs on the secret history of Marvel's spy communities).

[@robertroberts5090]

I'd love to know the original sources + documents for this history. Can you provide the titles of this dossier, I want to buy copies.

[@echo_9835]

How many times did you have to re-shoot this? There's no way you got through this whole thing in one take without laughing.

[@Acidtrip138]

I’m a huge marvel fan the satire and professionalism with tongue in cheek was great. I’ve literally watched every ep in all 3 Chanel’s and this is my first comment. Ur channel is great ur doing something that I’ve never seen done and it is impressive. thanks

[@WorldWarTwo]

[@shamurai69]

I genuinely don’t know how many times I’ve watched this episode now. Keep on going! It took me a few seconds the first time I saw it. Still loving the work!
