#xmen #wolverine

[@VDOTU5]

Practically the only woman-villain from superhero/villain comic books with the capability to be a powerhouse against a whole team of superpowered individuals, and WITHOUT needing to be possessed by some other force hijacking her consciousness, and she's sooooo underutilized! I want her to be the villain after the next X-Men movie.

[@dannytarver4533]

Very true

[@fritzadonisperez4550]

She did had an appearance in the Dark Phoenix but, mygod, what the hell was that?

[@TylerTour]

I put her on the same level as Hela

[@Prince_the_One]

Wanda as well, she is a Nexus being in her reality.

[@reichen666]

Probably has something to do with what made those bigwigs behind movie studios think that superheroine movies aren't profitable (because Catwoman & Elektra) or that one writer guy who thought a female Venom is a ridiculous idea because a super-powered female character ISN'T a believable villain for Spider-Man. 😐 I forgot the word, what's it called ...

[@andisadoily1935]

She deserves more attention she's always so fun when used well

[@antwan1357]

Selene is one of those underutilized characters that do not get much time to shine.

[@coryakabueze4541]

Selene should’ve been the main villain in x men dark phoenix

[@axelthouin4389]

no not in a story arc like this, the phénix take to much place for other main vilains, she ned to have her on main movie focus

[@joshmarvel5327]

Megan Fox and Lucy Liu would be a perfect cast to play Selene in Live Action

[@alexsolomon8127]

this is a woman so powerful that when Kulan gath was casting spells that rewrote ALL OF REALITY in NYC to revert back to the hyborean age.. Selene stayed EXACTLY the same because she was THERE the first time...and Kulan gath recognized her as his most significant threat. (actually it was Warlock, who being a technoorganic alien was completely outside Gath's understanding and immune to the "revision" spell he was casting. but still.) WHy the xmen not only leave her alive, but keep RESURRECTING her is beyond sane understanding and is one of the biggest arguments i have for all mutants being manipulated by the Celestials that are responsible for thier mutations in the first place. (its true, look it up)

[@mde3370]

Ik 😂

[@RobbyMeraki1]

I always felt she should have been Rogue's true birth mother.

[@Kaguraaaplays]

right it’d make sense

[@Pop-wl8yg]

Finally someone did a video on her. I’ve been asking ComicsExplained to do a video on her for a while. She’s such an amazing character and she has so much potential. She actually became a Goddess during Necrosha. I want Marvel to do more with her, show us how powerful she can become when she devours the souls of an entire planet!

[@astraeos]

Selene is my absolute favorite mutant of all! Thank you for making this informative video!

[@seanalexandermedia]

I LOVE THAT YOU DID THIS! I literally was just watching the UNDERWORLD movie analysis talk about Selene

[@jkrowlingsmam339]

What movie ?

[@samguapo4573]

I like her interpretation during her Hellfire Club days in the 90's.

[@jacobfierro2535]

I was so upset with what they did with Selene in the X-men movie…soooo under utilized…if she ever hits the screen again MCU better do right by her.

[@malikheard7266]

Like jean was nerfed but I didn't expect that from SELENE GALLIO

[@reichen666]

Gotta give mad props to Marvelous Videos giving such detailed attention to an underappreciated, underrated, underutilized powerhouse femme fatale villain in #Selene! ✳️🔥🌒🌑🌘🔥✳️ Just bowing now! 🙌🏼🙇🏻‍♂️🙌🏿🙇🏽🙌🏻 All hail Marvelous Videos! ☝🏻👊🏼🤘🏽 #BlackQueen

[@afro_princess1671]

Selene is actually born 17 thousand years ago. She was the oldest mutant until now since Marvel introduced mutants who lived billions of years ago. She is literally among the most powerful mutants, easily taking on both Magneto and Doom and and defeating them, she wasn't even trying to fight them. She is a psionic of the highest order. She is however not a telekinetic but can manipulate inanimate objects but since she is a sorceress she might be, who knows since she hasn't displayed much of her powers. With her intelligence and knowledge of magic, and her life force absorption. I would definitely put Selene above any magical being on earth. If displayed correctly, she would be more powerful than Doctor Strange, Wanda and even Madelyne Pryor

[@astraeos]

You are absolutely right. I did a double take when they mentioned she was born 15,000 years, until they said "before Christ" and then I did the math.

[@insighttheformula]

When did she fight doom?

[@justingaffneysamuels2072]

Selene has separate telekinetic powers from her matter animation powers. She’s a full range psionic, telepathy and telekinesis.

[@kingcharles4134]

Selene is so top tier and a baddie, Necrosha was a great storyline,she is soo woefully underutilized.

[@alexfilma16]

17,000 years and she still hasn’t taken over the world?

[@gumiho8352]

Finally she gets recognition 😭

[@iunderstanphotography2780]

i used to be so scared of her when i read the comics (pictured above). I remember when she attacked Sabastian Shaw. being able to just absorb your life force is so unfair lol

[@mde3370]

She caused him to be brain-de.d. (everything is sendored now so hopefully you know what I meant)

[@yournamehere98]

I hope she gets featured in MCU and not that ghastly Selene in Dark Phoenix

[@joshmarvel5327]

Hopefully the MCU would empower her as they empower Wanda

[@malikheard7266]

​@@joshmarvel5327they need to bring the entire X-Men verse to the MCU the fox verse is nerfed badly and we can atleast see more from jean

[@danbone5050]

AUBREY PLAZAA? HELL YES! SHE IS GETTING BETTER ROLES AND IS LOOKING GORGEOUS DAY AFTER DAY!

[@kingcharles4134]

Selene & Garba Hsein are the eldest Eternals...she would have made the perfect New Mutants villain.

[@apexzeiei97]

Necrosha is such a good series make me look at her totally different

[@garyjones1688]

She looked beautiful in live-action Phoenix movie but they could have made it better but they made her too weak

[@Jexel999]

I love anyone associated with the New Mutants comic !!

[@Mr.Magic4ever]

See that's what I thought! I thought possibly, Aubrey plaza would be playing character of Selene... Or Morgan Le Fay.

[@FranklinWilson-ev9dq]

And Amara's Grandmother!

[@jgodriel]

Black Queen (Selene) vs White Queen (Emma Frost) both became villain and superhero from time to time.

[@umamizaddy]

Unimaginable stories of Selene told by the MCU. So much potential

[@reichen666]

@16:14 Laundry List of Powers I love how the writers put too much limitations on each of the power sets . . . I wonder if this is "also" done on powerhouse male villains/heroes. 😐

[@justingaffneysamuels2072]

Recent writers don’t put those limitations on her power sets. This is Claremont era descriptions, basically almost 40 years ago.

[@sylasDC]

One of my favorite comics is the new mutants with Celine

[@kmallory100]

With her being so old I'm surprised she wasn't recruited by Apocolypse.

[@DaveB432]

I'm surprised she didn't recruit Apocalypse, she is that powerful.

[@ikecarr5989]

Rumor had it that Selene was supposed to show up in X-MEN:APOCALYPSE in the beginning set in ancient Egypt. She was supposed to be the one that instigated the coup against Apocalypse.

[@viniciusribeiro6451]

She reminds me Raven.

[@916009]

way too big of a storyarc to make into one video, this needs to be made into like a 4 part series.

I'm confused, what about Apocalypse being the first and oldest mutant?

[@axelthouin4389]

no Selene and some other mutants are older than him. Also she apparaid before him in the comics too

[@jonathanlociscek3452]

She's older than apocalypse

[@kingcharles4134]

He loves to brag about that but En Sabah Nur knows Selene has got him by a few millenia..

[@roguephoenix]

does that mean she's like scarlet witch and storm?

[@GangstaMojo]

The one thing I don't like about this character is her history or origin specifically.... I know the writers at marvel during the time her character was created don't have degrees in sociology or anything or know about mankind's history but by her being born 17,000 years they should have made her either Ethiopian or Sumerian.

[@omarscarborough4274]

Umar.

[@jarrodgoforth1257]

She also a few years ago was a handful for Captain America

[@ikecarr5989]

Two handfuls actually.

[@Vulcan_Raa]

Apocalypse is the oldest mutant but then again....

[@fabolous2006]

Sooooooo when they threw her out of the train she lived then?

[@patrickcolliano]

I hated Selene since the inception. Even down to her name. Plus, I concede she's powerful, her powers suck. She had telekinetic control of inorganic matter, telepathy, super strength, super speed. She has a vast array of powers, and isn't particularly strong with any of them. And as for the rest of her powers, I assume they're sorcery rather than mutant. None of her abilities are sufficiently developed to be a world-level threat.

[@floydwilliams2414]

Apocalypse, Namor, Selene who is the first?

[@mariejinx1977]

Selene is older than both.

[@matthewschwartz6607]

Wasn’t it retconned that DR. NEMESIS was the first mutant?

[@17mindgate]

They (Marvel) can't make up their minds about it... but in a Nutshell... Namor is recognized as the "first Mutant" in universe by public exposure, Dr. Nemesis was retconned as being public before him, but with a secret identity, Apocalypse and the Externals, and other mutants such as Exodus, wolverine, sabertooth, etc.are chronologically older in universe. That about covers it. Sorry for spreading the confusion/headache.

[@kingcharles4134]

As it stands now...Groove / Krakoa is the oldest the last survivor of a pre-historic mutant society Threshold..Selene,Garba Hsein,Genesis,Apocalypse, Isca,White Sword, Xilo the First Horsemen the other Externals,are all between 15 & 6000 yrs old..Exodus is almost a millenia old , then it's Dr Nemesis& Namor at a century & change ..
