There's a supervillain in Marvel called Paste- Pot Pete who uses glues and other pastes as his weapon of choice and he's considered to be a joke. Even after he changed his name to the Trapster and became a more effective villain, he still got mocked for his old nickname by Spider Man and the Human Torch. And when he beat up two other villains who betrayed him and left them stuck in his glue so that people would know it was him that did it, the police officers who found them just assumed that Spider Man was responsible for capturing them instead which upset the Trapster.

[@kimstolz8880]

“Trapster”, it’s even worse than trapper

[@mysticturtle997]

Trapster

[@shadenkeltner8067]

Funnily enough he changed his name back and exploited the fact that he was a joke to his benefit, because nobody would believe that Paste Pot Pete was *actually* pulling off the crimes that he did.

[@sinteleon]

Spiderman basically IS Trapster but better: Just spiderman's webbing without all of the cool spider powers.

[@AilinOGriobhtha]

I mean I'm pretty sure Jack Kirby knocked out most of the new gods in one presumably cocaine fuelled weekend hahahaha the 70s was a wild time for comics they'd happily put out any old bollocks 🤣🤣🤣

[@Grubbyfoot]

Had to change me here to mention the ultimate forgotten marvel character; Forget-me-not! Founding member of the X-Men, his superpower is that everyone forgets he exists moments after looking away. He's not in most of the comics because the power also works through the 4th wall, but any time the X-Men were saved by a stroke of luck or Deus ex Machina, that was him. Xavier used his mind powers to regularly remind himself that FMN existed, but during a time when Xavier was either dead, evil or both everyone else forgot FMN and he got eaten by the x-mansion security systems.

[@abydosianchulac2]

Dang, thanks, I'd forgotten about... him....... waaait a second....

[@sourcererseven3858]

I wonder who came first, him or The Silence from Doctor Who...

[@RasmusVJS]

Didn't he survive the security system?

[@Grubbyfoot]

@@RasmusVJS I honestly don't remember

[@dredskl]

The good news is the security system actually forgot he was there too and let’s him go

[@lisah-p8474]

I just love the character design of Ruby Thursday. It's like someone popped the head off a Barbie doll and replaced it with a spray painted ping-pong ball. But she is SERVING!!

[@CaitlinRC]

I live in eternal fear of Squirrel Girl. She's powerful even without the ability to command squirrels to do her bidding. Those rascals in my back garden... They're plotting something.

[@pablofierros6975]

Canonically the most powerful character in Marvel

[@Elementroar]

She traumatised Dr Doom so much that when she went over to borrow some tech from him, he let her without a fight.

[@getshwifty3101]

Don't you know the truth? Squirrels actually run the world. Do not let them know you found out though, or you'll end up *scuffle sounds* extremely happy! *chitter chitter* Just *chitter* make sure to leave nuts outside.

@@khamjaninja. Ryan North and Erica Henderson's run is an absolute all-timer, it's basically treasure

[@randomchick1234]

Kangaroo Boy on the other hand, is a force to be reckoned with and will f up your shit

[@princeblackelf4265]

so full disclosure, I am a huge Marvel nerd with a lot of deep cut knowledge, I have been imagining Ruby Thursday as Katie Pearlhead since the early days of Oxventure. I have long wondered if anybody on the OxBox crew would in fact every make that same connection. It took like six years but if finally happened As far as Bluestreak being the only "good" one of the options, Slapstick is actually ridiculously powerful and for all intents and purposes, indestructible. Having the powers of a cartoon gag character is actually the way to go. He can do almost anything and nothing can kill him

[@CodaBlairLucarioEmperor]

Yep. There's a reason you can't use gag characters in most powerful lists or polls.

[@mr.mephitis2492]

So, he's basically "The Mask."

[@Chris_Sizemore]

@@mr.mephitis2492 The Mask (who is also a Marvel character) is way more powerful than Slapstick because the Mask can basically alter reality. Slapstick on the other hand is basically indestructible, and stronger than normal people. Out of the listed characters the Cosmic Eraser might be more of a threat, but Slapstick is all around a better choice.

[@heresthadude1080]

The downside is that Slapstick has no genitals

[@totz_the_plaid9625]

@@Chris_Sizemore The Mask is a Dark Horse character, not Marvel. He's not even a property that was at one time published by a Marvel subsidiary and has since drifted to other publishers, he was introduced in Dark Horse Presents.

[@meepleofbritain5942]

Honestly disappointed Luke didn’t inform Ellen about arguably Marvel’s best ever pun villain. A man with a flying bicycle, a flame shooting umbrella, and a weird obsession with returning society to a period pre-WW1. His name - Turner D Century

[@dadefrost2059]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

[@BudBonkerson]

good grief

[@typacsk]

I'm just going to tell myself you're making that up, and go back to bed ;)

[@meepleofbritain5942]

@@typacsk oh my friend, how i wish I was inventing this character

[@dallydaydream]

Arguably-- *very* arguably, because they've probably forgotten by now-- they already new about Turner D. Century because I am 99% certain he was the subject of a question in a Jackbox game. Fibbage, I think?

[@tyrannicpuppy]

Any video where Ellen breaks out into several sessions of uncontrollable laughter is a great video in my opinion.

[@Christian-rn1ur]

So every video with Ellen in it then

[@frodobaggins7710]

I really hope that Gamecock becomes an Oxtra staple after this episode

[@gruggerduggerhoose]

If we can get as visceral a laugh from ellen on repeat mentions, yes. This needs to be a recurring character 😂

[@apocrypha5363]

Luke's superhero catchphrase should be: "Where there's a Westerwill, there's a Westerway."

[@moogle9148]

Project a Pokemon magazine into the sky to summon him

[@KarlosMorale]

That's Westerwang!

[@odysyr]

Luke for President! Westerway in the Westerwing!

[@kadosho02]

The catchphrase has a wicked 🎸 play

[@jesusmora9379]

I was confused for a second because i was thinking of Luke Cage and his catchphrase "Merry Christmas"

[@austinsebben1402]

There is an X-men character named Beak whose mutation gives him the unhelpful qualities of birds, weak bones and a beak for a mouth. There’s another whose power is he cannot be remembered by anyone, and lots more mutants with major drawbacks

[@merepseu]

I can't believe Luke or that article would forget to include that guy.

[@simpleChoas33]

I can imagine Luke looking at the "Game Wrap" (like spotifiy wrapped, but for gaming) and says, "yeah, gonna be some hard hitting action games, maybe some puzzle games, and of course some homey-building like Animal crossing or something" "Your 2 biggest genres!: Deckbuilding and Racing Simulators!" And then Luke just has a existential crisis

[@Joe90h]

"How is reading Pokemon magazine somehow a video game?"

[@gwts1171]

I thought that Marvel Snap was a game about riding in a minecart and taking photos of characters in the wild. Maybe having the photos judged by some type of professor character.

[@heresthadude1080]

By the Collector, most likely

[@yuvi3000]

I know you're joking, but I think this could legitimately be a good game if they do it correctly. You're a reporter for the Daily Bugle or something. You're sent in to a battle between two or more teams for each different level to get photos for the latest news articles about whatever situation is about to destroy the city/country/world/universe. So you could get a photo of Captain America ready to fight Red Skull, or you could wait a couple seconds and get a photo of him as he delivers a kick to Red Skull's face. It could work.

[@q306005]

I was really hoping they'd mention Doorman, who's powers are the ability to become a doorway for people to pass through. His preferred mode of transportation were skis and he was once the harbinger of Death.

[@rokeYouuer]

He's basically the Black Racer from DC, except every bit as stupid as his powerset implies, while BR single-handedly made skiing cool again.

[@Joe90h]

I remember there was an X-Men villain called Eye-Scream who could turn himself into ice cream. Because of a really well timed infiltration of the mutant academy I think he very nearly could have taken out a few of the X-Men, but got sidetracked when another villain who was attacking at the same time impressed him so much he wanted to fight that guy instead.

[@imladrad2584]

I came back to leave a second comment with a list idea - games where people used very limited interaction options to communicate. Along with Marvel Snap, where the emojis have actually led to some funny and pleasant interactions for me, I was thinking of Journey, where you only have your character movements and little musical chirps to communicate.

[@yuvi3000]

I've stopped playing Marvel Snap now, but I used to use the pointing Spider-Man meme every time someone had the same profile image as me and they often responded with the same which was always a fun way to start the battle with a laugh.

[@SteamPunkChewie95]

Luke's chaotic energy gives me life. "Do a proper outro? Nah, we just did it, sort of"

[@paullatham8486]

Proper "it's Friday afternoon" vibes...let's head out and try and beat the traffic 🤣🤣

[@brentage5000]

I'll be honest, a couple of those guys sound surprisingly cool and if they're properly adapted and updated I wouldn't mind seeing them used in some MCU capacity. Also, shoutout to Skin, because he was in Generation X, one of the big X-Men comics of my 90s youth

[@GhengisJohn]

Yeah my brother was reading that and I'd read those from time to time, I was like "Ah hey, cool somebody I recognize."

[@maxvel0city906]

Luke acting like a grumpy teenager in the intro is such a mood and I'm totally here for it.😂

I own the book called The League of regrettable superheroes and most of them show up in that book and I've just now realized that slapsticks body is made out of the same stuff as Mr Fantastic's costume

[@Vinemaple]

I've heard that Stan Lee's characters have their cheesy or alliterative names because Lee always had trouble remembering character names... so he learned to make sure his characters' names were easy to remember.

[@nickdejager8873]

Slapstick is is pretty well known to comic fans, and is an incredibly powerful character. Imagine someone who can do anything a Loony Tunes character can do. As indestructible as Daffy Duck. Fast as the Roadrunner. And as creative, random, and powerful as Bugs himself.

[@phyllissmith9426]

My mom couldn't hear the movie I was laughing so hard. So did she when I told her about Luke finding "Skin". I would love to see a show on strange unknown weaknesses of super heroes, Marvel or "the other guys"(hehe). Phone man gets plugs into a modem and goes deaf from the connection tone. "Ask your parents kiddees". Thanks for the fun, you always make me smile.

[@colinspeirs]

I thought Ellen and Luke *might* have recognised "Ruby Thursday" from her appearance in the "Guardians of the Galaxy" game, but it was amazingly brief

[@typacsk]

In Canada, she's known as Mrs. Canoehead

[@colinspeirs]

@@typacsk sorry, I've only ever heard of "Four on the Floor", never seen it

[@boobah5643]

She was one of the two names I recognized; I knew her from _Sensational She Hulk_ #4, I think. The panel of her making (and swinging) a giant mallet made of her head shown in the video is from that issue.

[@colinspeirs]

@@boobah5643 who needs a ring and a vulnerability to the colour yellow when you have a malleable head!

[@Sableagle]

I can think of a way to make Phone Ranger modern and *very* powerful: being able to dive into the microphone and emerge from the earpiece along any voice connection. With a satellite phone and a big book of 24-hour fast food joints' phone numbers, he can get around, round, get around, he'd get around. He'd get around, round, get around, he'd get around. He'd get around, round, round, round, oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, round, round, get around, he'd get around. I'm getting bugged rereading the same old Marvel strip. I've gotta write a new tale where the kids are hip. I get around ...

[@senhowler]

Luke dismisses the hero with the abilities of a Looney Tunes character. Luffy: I'd like a word with you.

[@christinewebb8893]

That moment between 4:44 and 4:48 - *Ellen talks about Luke's playing Marvel Snap during takes on Oxventure* Jon: "Yeah on set, literally" Luke: *Looking shocked as if Jon had told a dirty secret* The expression on Luke's face set me me off!

[@akmal94ibrahim]

The outro couldn't get any lazier and I am loving it.

[@coyoteartist]

Back in Tom Baker's days on Doctor Who, he and John Leeson use to do crosswords during breaks using the radio in K9 to talk to each other.

[@robertwilsonjr.1384]

"Wouldn't you like more skin?" The tagline for a body-horror movie if I've ever heard one.

[@GarmrKiDar]

Only in superhero comics would a genius scientist have the brilliant idea to amputate and replace their own head

[@ka-mai]

Nah, there's a character like that in AFK Arena, for instance, and he replaced his head with a BUCKET. With 3 eyes.

[@quincebielka8843]

I was expecting wondering if Luke would add plant nutrition boy as one of the options

[@kadosho02]

Oh I remember. o_o the stuff of nightmares

[@dallydaydream]

Ah but if PNB was one of the options it would take all the fun out of it, since Ellen would *obviously* pick his superior plant-eating powers ; )

[@totz_the_plaid9625]

Skin, Slapstick, Ruby Thursday, and 3D Man are hardly "forgotten" Marvel Characters. "Generation X," the X-Men spinoff comic Skin was a main character in was actually a big seller for much of its run, and he got an action figure in the toyline based off it. He was killed when the Purifiers (one of many mutant-hating religious terrorist groups) attacked the mansion while the main X-Men team were away on a mission and crucified a number of b-listers on the front lawn of the grounds. Though, he has since been resurrected during the current (very weird) run of X-books where they're living on Krakoa (an island that is a mutant itself), and they brought _ALL_ the dead mutant characters back to life. Slapstick, despite getting his own introductory miniseries has been a constant C/D-lister, but has popped up in a lot of other books and storylines, most notably as part of a recent Deadpool series, the redundantly titled "Deadpool and the Mercs for Money" where he was one of the titlular mercenaries. Ruby Thursday was a recurring enemy of the original Defenders team (not the group of street level heroes popularized(?) by the Netflix shows, but a fluctuating "non-team" that often included Hulk, Hellcat, Daimon Helstrom, Doctor Strange, Nighthawk, Silver Surfer, Valkyrie, and others), as part of a very weird villain team known as the Headmen alongside Chondu the Mystic (whose head was transplanted onto a weird alien-like body), the villainous Gorilla Man who transplanted his head onto a gorilla body (not to be confused with Marvel's OTHER Gorilla-Man, a hero who was a man turned into a gorilla but kept his human intellect), and Shrunken Bones (a man whose skeleton was too small for his skin and body). She still makes occasional appearances. Speaking of Marvel's heroic Gorilla-Man, both the original 3D Man, and his replacement were teammates with him as part of the Agents of Atlas, before the team was recently re-worked to be mostly Korean heroes as part of a marketing thing. The second (and current) 3D Man, Delroy Garrett, was introduced in the Avengers as Triathalon, an Olympic athlete who was given the same sort of 'peak-of-human-potential' enhancements as Captain America, but by a fictional cult inspired by Scientology. He flopped as a character, but was given a second chance by taking on the legacy position. I was honestly expecting some truly forgotten marvel characters like "A Guy Named Joe" (real name Joe Smith) or "Chtylok the Che-K'n Kau"... or at least an "Obnoxio the Clown." ..."Phone Ranger" is a fair pick, though, with only 3 appearances, though it's safe to assume he was a deliberate joke character, as those occasionally do pop up. The one I'm most disappointed Luke didn't choose for the list, though: Elf with a Gun, who is, as his name implies, a small man with pointed ears, dressed as though he was one of Santa's elves... who shoots people with a handgun. He made several appearances in issues of "the Defenders," murdering civilians, as an apparent lead-up to a proper storyline, but IIRC, his creator left the book and he was unceremoniously killed off by being hit by a semi truck.

[@feathercompressor]

Are you kidding me?? Phone Ranger sounds terrifying! He can talk directly to your cell phone while he's standing next to you at the bus stop! I dare you to think of a more effective espionage power. Even Telepathy wouldn't be as good because it's subject to human perception and memory.

[@stormsurge2103]

To be honest, most of these powers sound pretty cool. Except for Skin and Gamecock, somebody was on something when they came up with those ideas.😅

[@TheAberducky]

The Besties is also the reason I started playing snap and I'm equally addicted to playing it.

[@cesariohaines]

[@limegreenelevator]

For the first minute I thought Luke was saying Marble Snap and now I want to play that.

[@Sableagle]

Marble as in spherical toys or marble as in metamorphosed limestone?

[@limegreenelevator]

@@Sableagle Why not both?

[@Outlawzero]

Some kind of space dog? Are you talking about Cosmo? Cause he was severely under sold in the movies. Basically the same origin as the Fantastic Four that alone is badass. He's basically immortal now has telekinesis & telepathy while having intellect that surpasses human average. He's one of the stronger members of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

[@StellaFiver]

How did I not know there was a Marvel Roller Derby character!? I feel like a fraud, thank you for teaching me :D

[@DeerBonesBaby]

The initial crux seems just like the board-game Smash Up! I love that board game, although that's a lot more hectic than Snap (there's items you throw down, abilities that move units to different locations, change power levels, ect. its pretty nuts)

[@TessaOswin]

Getting a marvel snap mid roll ad in this video seems to perfect

[@FictionWriter95]

I can confirm that I got an ad for Marvel Snap before this video.

[@voldrik1364]

Fun fact: Iron Man originally used roller skates to get around quick. They just popped out of his feet. So unless Blue Streak's roller derby gear is more high tech than Iron Man, he seems a bit redundant.

[@totz_the_plaid9625]

Comic books... having _REDUNDANT_ characters?! Well I never! (Side-eyes the entire Spider-Verse AND Clone Saga, the 12 different Crimson Dynamos, the numerous alternate Wolverines that have crossed over into the 616, multiple Ghost Riders, the half-dozen plus knock-off Hulks (Red Hulk, the OTHER Red Hulk, Skaar, Lyra, Red She-Hulk, Brawn, A-Bomb...), etc. then glances over to DC with six Robins, several Flash-es, six HUMAN Green Lanterns (seven if you count Alan Scott) and dozens of other Green Lantern Corps members... the various OTHER color Lantern Corps, two Green Arrows, multiple Superboys and Supergirls, the Shazam Family [though the defunct Fawcett comics can be thanked for that], etc. ad infinitum.) Yeah... that NEVER happens. ...I'm a comics fan, but ideas do get run into the ground sometimes. And by "sometimes" I mean frequently.

[@ArkaneStephanie]

You know these go off topic so quick. But this is the first time I genuinely forgot what the show was actually about. Also we watched through the Pokemon magazine phase so you you shouldn't be surprised we are still watching at this point

[@raquelbusson9985]

Should’ve had Big Wheel in there too

[@dwlr007]

9:53 So disappointed that Forget-Me-Not or Eye-Scream didn't make the list. Forget-Me-Not whenever you break line of sight with him you forget every thing about him, he cannot turn this power off and there is an entire comic dedicated to the X-men wondering who refilled the toilet paper in the bathroom because it was Forget-Me-Not, actually a pretty useful fighting ability since you just need to break line of sight to ambush anybody, but rubbish because of how intrusive the power is. Eye-Scream has the power to turn into any flavor of ice scream including a banana split, that's it, he's just ice scream. Honorable mention to Obnoxio the Clown because he's just your average divorced clown so he's slightly malevolent, but he still does children's birthday parties because I reiterate he's just a clown. He actually appeared in the Spider-man arcade game so he's clearly the best Marvel character ever getting that video game representation.

[@xtifr]

I think I once saw Skin on a list of "Top 10 Superheroes whose powers you DON'T want!" So, yeah, good job ducking that one, Ellen! :) As far as this game goes, though, if it doesn't understand that The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl is, well, _unbeatable,_ then I'm not sure I could bring myself to play it! It would be like having a Deadpool that didn't break the fourth wall! :)
