Who is Marvel's Agent X? The Other, Better "Deadpool"

This video explores the abilities, powers, and origin of the Marvel Comics character "Agent X." From Nijo aka Alex Hayden originally having a grudge against Deadpool while working as a mercenary and agent of the German psionic mutant named Black Swan, being double-crossed and left for dead after learning that Black Swan was actually the one responsible for the death of his brother and the other Japanese mob bosses known as the Four Winds, Black Swan's psionic abilities inadvertently mixing up all of the superpowers and skills of himself and Deadpool between the three of them, taking on the alias Alex Hayden in New York and briefly seeming to be Deadpool while pursuing recognition as the best mercenary around, starting Agency X with Sandi Brandenberg after receiving training from Taskmaster and Inez Temple aka Outlaw, subsequent run-ins with The Punisher Frank Castle and Deadpool, to becoming tepid allies with Deadpool after being rescued from Hydra after being affected by the American gene device and becoming lazy and obese; Let's take a look at this extremely effective Marvel superhero mercenary, and easily one of the best fighters in the Marvel Universe. This includes a short, canon character biography and my own opinionated "Sage Rating," which I use to give ratings of comic book and science fiction characters.

I've never heard of this dude until now. He sounds interesting, hopefully we can see him in some future movies or major comic storylines. He sounds like someone that could spice things up a bit.

[@NewSage]

Exactly! 💯

[@ericx6969]

​@@NewSage does psychic counter dead pool by making him explode lol

[@joesmith-cn8qx]

​​@@NewSage didn't they end up making agent x get mad fat?nvm just finished video

[@raycharles178]

He's been around. He for sure is dope. In fact a rarely see him lose straight up. He's always tricked.

[@teetea7734]

Haven't heard about Agent X in nearly a decade. This characters needs so much more love

[@kriminal6034]

him and Agent zero formerly known as maverick

[@Sunstar808]

Having bested Deadpool and Taskmaster is definitely saying something. Good thing he got himself in shape cause he’d come across as another Fred Dukes.

[@rockmanx6857]

He was a pretty cool character back in the early 2000's.

[@TheRazorTongue]

Squad up!!! I’m still hoping we will get a Weapon Plus movie.

[@NewSage]

Early SQUAD Leader Brock has arrived! 💪🏽😎👊🏽 And yeah... If done right, that could be EPIC! 🎬🍿

[@PhatGirlLuvr68Comix]

This would be the perfect villain for Deadpool 3.

[@NewSage]

💯 Right there with you, bro! 😎👍🏼

[@johnhannibalsmith1607]

I never heard of Agent X. He sounds and looks awesome.

We need a TV with this guy

Cool Character, all though didn’t knew he existed 😐, thanks for the video bro 🥳✊

They need to make a marvel movie on this guy, he is a cool character. ✌👍👍

I would like to see (Agent X) appear in the new cartoon shows.

As always, I appreciate you, bro! 😎👊🏽

[@ta3_unknownn3250]

I need to see him in a new Wolverine storyline 💯 where he tries to kill sabertooth & Wolvy and both brothers have no choice but to team up🔥

[@MrWadewynn]

Always thought Ken Leung had the facial structure to play a great version of this character live. Ken is from Rush Hour, Saw, and Lost. He also has a snarky voice that would be good for joke delivery.

[@mortifiedphreak]

Just letting you know the titel says Mavel instead of Marvel. But as always a great video with another character I did not know. Great job!

[@NewSage]

Thanks a lot, bro! Changing it now! 😁👍🏼

[@damianstarks3338]

I remember this guy glade to see you doing a video on him.

[@kevynhansyn2902]

Well there are hundreds of "X" type characters either by name or experimental characters. It's no wonder he went under the radar

[@youtubestudiosucks978]

Radar X With the power of a radar he finds who asked

[@grimmentry5115]

Great video like always,Man Deadpool needs an adult cartoon kinda like Spawn or Harley Quinn where they can introduce more obscure heroes and villains.

[@ldiod4374]

Almost had one, got scrapped at the last second due to creative differences.

[@shawndaletaylor]

I have some of Agent X comic books

[@geralddempsey8972]

Not the Bob from Tekken storyline 🤣🤣🤣

[@trippytimesjosh355]

New characters to me, would like to learn more about that "Outlaw" chick. side note: 3:57 that's my FAVORITE Taskmaster look hands down! Gives me flashbacks of maining him in "Ultimate Marvel VS Capcom 3".

[@popcornplaya83ify]

This is a clean character

[@trexadvent4726]

What would happen if we saw Agent X make his MCU debut in Deadpool 3 movie?

[@BONEHEADSbro5625]

You know if it's a deadpool villian they'll be awesome

[@michaelfeghali9943]

Dope character 👌 😎

[@briandaleske5139]

I imagine there could be four variants of (Agent X) who are each heroes, instead of being villains, and I imagine one works with the S.H.I.E.L.D. agency.

[@damaniqphillip2756]

Sweet

[@trexadvent4726]

Who do you think is better between Agent X, Outlaw and Black Swan? Can you do comic book origin of Marvel's Outlaw and Black Swan?

[@ethanbrunt7755]

Do captain glory

[@kratoscraken5614]

Assassins, hitmen and mercs are interesting but they all have the same story so not fun but great video 👍

[@bryananderson9643]

Man I'm old as hell! Some of these comments!"I never heard of him before!"🤨

[@magvs_mæstro216]

80s baby?

[@blackphoenix77]

I'm old too, but the only reason I know who this dude is is because of Marvel's handbooks. I wasn't able to buy comics during the era where he first appeared.

[@trexadvent4726]

Can you please do comic book origin of Marvel's Multiple Man since no one else has done an origin video of him?

[@NewSage]

Added him to the to-do list just now. 🤓👍🏼

[@Meteorbarretx]

“I gotta Bald head!!!”-

[@BoulevardTrash99]

Agent X a k.a. Maverick ladies & gentleman.

[@quentinfogger5755]

Can you do comic book origin of Marvel's Calypso?

[@sammcfarlane2494]

He should have been in Deadpool and Wolverine.

[@quentinfogger5755]

Can you do comic book origin of DC's Despero?

[@j.l.atheprodigy]

Can you do one of my two favorites? Fantomex and Agent Zero aka Maverick (Marvel)

[@kevynhansyn2902]

Fantomex is in his library. You might have to go back a couple years.

[@j.l.atheprodigy]

@@kevynhansyn2902 Gotcha

[@Mr.Lubbox-Lobsterlegz1]

Don’t know was kinda let down when I read a better Deadpool my mind went to funnier and more 4th wall breaking but yea super healing is cool too 😅😂

[@verticalflats2816]

I am wondering if you do any biography of someone who has been in two comic book universes like Grifter Zealot in Image and DC Comics. Will you do two part biography or just one?

[@NewSage]

Yeah. I've done both of them in the past! 🤓👍🏼 With characters like that, I tend to share a bit of both backstories, if they've been changed.

[@trippytimesjosh355]

Like Image/Marvel's Angela, who was (in my opinion) soft rebooted from Spawn's universe, to be the lost sister of Thor. I say soft reboot since they kept her look pretty much the same, as well as her being a wingless assasin angel. ...Only retconning her as half Asgardian. Personally would love if Marvel and IMAGE could work it out, to have Angela mention (or reference via flashback) her time with SPAWN.... I mean they did that Invincible/Spiderman crossover comic... which I'm pretty sure is Canon to Marvel & Image?

[@trexadvent4726]

Can you do comic book origin of DC White Rabbit?

[@trexadvent4726]

What do you think is the best thing about Agent X in the comics compared to Deadpool and Taskmaster? Which one of his powers and abilities do you think is the best?

[@dezaina9961]

I knew he was a 7!

[@NewSage]

Of course! Great minds think al... 😎

[@MauriceM_R]

Do you have a video on Count Vertigo?

[@trexadvent4726]

Can you do comic book origin of Marvel's Hypno Hustler?

[@blackphoenix77]

I think this guy was originally intended to be a more serious reboot of Deadpool before editorial changed their minds and decided to make him a separate character. Just a theory.

[@kareefcarl2072]

Do you know who that extraterrestrial is on that black panther shirt 👕 ar Target?

[@brianpj5860]

Such a weird character. I remember reading the agent x comics YEARS ago, and finding it odd they made a deadpool spinoff character, that does the same things as deadpool, a weird writers choice.

[@lifewithmjpooh2853]

This wasn’t the Asian dude from wolverine origins

🏆🎉 4th to the party today, bro! 😎👊🏽 And yeah... Of course, he's not Wade. I just used that title off of "technicality." 😅👍🏼

[@mascadadelpantion8018]

OK so basically hes one of these fast healing super ninja gun peoperiod pretty much as generic as they come. However the comic book say that hes very tough so you know I guess hes tough..........

[@dezaina9961]

Yeah!

🥈🎉 2nd to the party! 🥳 As usual, kick back and relax, bro! 😎👊🏽

[@infamoswordz]

Another too cool for school merc but still not better than Deadpool do he gets little to no shine. He's a cool Deadpool counterpart just not utilized enough

Who is „Red Sonja“? Conans Redhead Babarian Queen. (Also a muscle mommy)

[@NewSage]

🏆 5th to the party,, Schnitzel! Glad to have you here early today. And yeah. She's a good one. Duly noted. 👍🏼

[@Lilpapersthe1]

So basically they turned Agent X into the blob as that is literally the most messed up way to put a character away something is wrong with Marvel

[@AnthonyBelfini]

I think sage mistyped marvel in the title

[@NewSage]

Yeah. I just changed it now! 😅👍🏼

[@Rodeo_Wizard]

If the Marvel plans to introduce a live-action Agent X to the MCU, let's hope Marvel doesn't screw up the character like all those characters in Marvel phase 4. Judging how Marvel Disney is going right now with the recent awful phase 4, I'm really worried they might tarnish a live-action Agent X.

[@rdytocookup]

what characters did they screw up in phase 4..?

[@Spoeism]

... I couldn't finish... nothing worse than a Knock-off OP design to replace a character. Never works.

[@erikbihari3625]

A more sociable deadpool?

When is he getting his own movie lol

Cool

I liked the dude better than Deadpool. And the art for his book was fuckin off the hook

[@rdytocookup]

he def isn't better than Deadpool. he's an interesting Deadpool counterpart but thats about it. Wade is such a great character when written well and it isn't just the idiotic red guy that spouts random nonsense and swear words

[@ContagiousSponge]

So is he currently still fat, or did he manage to lose all that weight and become normal again?

[@metatronblack]

I usually don't disagree with you. But Deadpool is King

[@richardofredemption]

[@funkyfishgawd2954]

7?!! 😒😒 More like a four. I get it. He beat task master but never even heard of this dude. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. We already have 1 one Deadpool. Don’t need a cheap knock off.

[@mrsurprise2294]

Yeah 4 for me also

Shouldn't X have tumors all over his body?
