Cloak and Dagger can be quite deadly when they really want to be... It makes me wonder what they'd be like as straight-up VILLAINS!

I can relate to Tyrone Johnson aka the Cloak because I stutter like him!

*teleports behind you

[@chancellorally8766]

Spiderman: Stop killing people!! Cloak and Dagger: Nah

[@onlydogu9849]

Cloak is my favorite superhero

[@vincentfranklin17]

I really like these two. I was disappointed that their TV show got cancelled! They need a miniseries, or have them pop up more in the comics!

[@hurmur9528]

Man daggers body.

[@trustobey1016]

Dagger's outfit is cool and sexy

[@vulpescorvum7602]

If Im not wrong Mr Negative got his powers the same way cloak and. Dagger did but he has both Light and darkforce with him.

[@carlospointofview]

Great content!!!! I love learning more about these C-List characters.

[@mjcurtiss]

Agreed

[@phreshking5747]

Cloak and dagger needs a reboot

[@philipdunwody3909]

probably have one since he said 'orginal origin '.

[@jamesgreep9344]

Dagger ain’t special. I can also stab someone’s addiction out of them! Can’t do crack if you’re dead! In hindsight, that sounds like something Deadpool would say...

[@_butterfinger]

The synth background music is the icing on the cake 👍

[@evilchaosboy]

Best channel, I have recently discovered! This vid is, so far my fave. C & D are a great team and deservedly had their story told. Thanks! \m/

[@justsomeguyxxx1432]

I would like to see these 2 more.

[@Rompastompa71]

These Guys Are Underrated. I Wonder When The MCU Will Pull These Two Wildcards Out And Give Them Some Exposure.

[@milzmagnetic8225]

They Have TV Show on Hulu

[@derrickshade4547]

YOU TELL THE STORIES EXACTLY THEY WAY THEY SUPPOSE TOO.

[@garyjones1688]

Love these to

[@tammy6610]

How do you not have at least 100k subs

[@sepp4815]

Does sony have the rights to them too Like with the og villain Punisher

[@Puka04]

Wow I thought they were mutants. Good to know!

[@MerryMarvelite]

For a time it was thought that they were Mutants and that the drug kick started their powers, but it's since been established that they don't actually have the X-Gene necessary to count. Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy the channel!

[@Puka04]

@@MerryMarvelite okay so i wasn't crazy lol, yes I love the channel!

[@richshelton682]

There way cooler then I thought

[@meowistforlife]

Anti-drug knives

[@johncole015]

Ed Hannigan's PPTSS covers should be released in a portfolio.

[@mostmost1]

They killing dope dealers out here like crazy

[@HOUSEOFKARLOFF1985]

Any chance you could review the history and origin of Dracula's daughter Lilith?

[@MerryMarvelite]

That sounds like a good one! I'll add it to my list of suggestions. I've got a few to work through but I'm hoping to hit a lot of fan requests this year!

[@HOUSEOFKARLOFF1985]

@@MerryMarvelite Awesome!!!! Just found her first appearance on eBay in Giant Size Chillers #1 Featuring The Curse of Dracula in 8.0 condition.

[@HOUSEOFKARLOFF1985]

Have another copy in a 6.5 on the way along with a 9.6 copy of Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends #1.

[@MerryMarvelite]

@@HOUSEOFKARLOFF1985 That is awesome, my dude!

[@chestnut_dude]

I was just wondering if this relationship was platonic or what

[@Filmation77]

Is that freeform series still on?

[@princeveggetta]

The dark Force

[@michaelbotticelli8082]

Thanks for doing these. Question on Cloak and Dagger. Weren’t their origins retconned to make them mutants?

[@MerryMarvelite]

For a while they were thought to be Mutants and even ran with the X-Men for a brief time, yes. I believe this has since been debunked and so they are back to being considered powered humans.

[@paulmiller7838]

I believe they are considered to be mutates not mutants. Meaning they gained their powers from an external source which mutated them.

[@richshelton682]

How about death head?

[@Artisan1979]

I would like to see an origin of Dr. dooms chosen heir, Kristoff

[@joegahan7055]

Ha ha she was eating plain yogurt

[@nicholasbiddle7893]

Did you guys see where peter was asking if the ex pharmacist was dealing Methadone?! Wtf what an odd question...why wouldn't he ask if he was dealing heroin? Not methadone, who does that?

[@jimmyhoffa2530]

Where can I get some drugs like that???

[@angztekindustries]

Wasn't it originally an anti drug campaign?

[@kellsthegoat8479]

Dang i was gonna say first lol
