The Origins of the Vishanti and the Ancient One

[@samwill7259]

This is one of those foundational marvel stories that underpins EVERYTHING. From the Vampires to the X-Men to of course Dr. Strange. Everything in the marvel timeline is connected by threads reaching back to these periods of gods and the first generation of heroes.

[@zakeryrockwell8395]

Not really

[@Srsbzns_5150]

I find these type of comic stories so much more interesting than a lot of the stuff currently out. It just feels more imaginative, grand, and wondrous in scale. Those ancient avengers looked awesome 💯

[@KGBookkeeping]

Can’t argue with that but the Ancient Avengers run is a modern day comic retcon notably

[@Srsbzns_5150]

@@KGBookkeeping ahhh I didn't know that. Thx

[@alltheworldsastage4785]

Agreed, but the ancient avengers thing was kinda goofy in my opinion. Marvel wanted their superheroes to have a legacy element to them, much like most of DC's superheroes, lol.

[@OkMakuTree]

This was a real treat, I loved reading Dr. Strange's comic as a kid. Yes please to more lore videos on the mystical characters of the marvel universe!

[@gr8tbigtreehugger]

Thanks for this insightful and comprehensive video!

[@darnellwoodall1297]

Is there any chance that you could do a video on the Phoenix Force? I’m really interested in finding out why it’s changed into what it is now.

[@matthewschwartz6607]

Is it still Thor’s mother?

[@zakeryrockwell8395]

Lol

[@uxm4life94]

In over 40 years of reading Marvels entire line the Avengers 1,000,000 BC are easily the biggest continuity nightmare in Marvel history IMHO

[@thelorde7530]

*LOVE HOW YOU THOROUGHLY RESEARCH YOUR INFORMATION BEFORE YOU PUT IT OUT. YOU ARE DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST AT DOING THIS...I ONLY WANT MORE, GREAT JOB BROTHER AND THANK YOU ALWAYS **#BRILLIANT*

[@astrostar49]

This was awesome. Thanks for deciding to spotlight the origins of the Vishanti and Ancient One this week. Over the last few years I've really become a bigger Doctor Strange fan thanks to the MCU films, so I'm really excited to be exploring everything related to him in Marvel books. Hopefully soon you can also profile Doctor Strange himself and/or Baron Mordo. Also Clea. Would definitely like to see that. Until then, keep up the great work. Cheers mate.

[@christopherulichney]

I really like when you cover characters from before the era of superheroes. It shows the depth of the Marvel Universe. All of the potential videos you mentioned would be cool. I'll give you one more; Clea. She had a rich history to explore.

[@john-tobeymaguirecena]

More *strange tales* please!! Loving all your content!!!

[@trexadvent4726]

Are you going to do history of lesser known characters like Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Ultimo, Inferno, Victorious, Flerken, Blacklash, Deathlok, Elematrix, Vertigo, Titanium_Man, Crimson Dynamo, Dreadknight, Hypnotia, Blizzard, Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Starhawk, Fixer, Whirlwind, Chemistro, Whiplash, the Controller, Madam_Masque, Count_Nefaria, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Century, Lore and Technovore?

[@sinceresouthpole6237]

All of your videos are just so great and so information thank you for the good work that you do

[@quentinfogger5755]

Who do you think is the best magic user to wield the Talisman along with being the Sorcerer Supreme before the Ancient One?

[@TheMaddTitan_]

Excellent video. Currently binging all of your videos!!!

[@kallianpublico7517]

Missing something. The Sorcerer Supreme is for the entire universe. No mention of Sorcerer Supremes from other galaxies and star systems. No Kree, Skrull, Shi'aar Sorcerer Supremes?

[@Levi-rg1qh]

We want to know more about all the characters you mentioned. I like your page. Thank you.

[@edwardmiller3430]

Thank You Sir!! You are BETTER than the gentleman who does Comics Explained. Really. I am serious! He's into stories and I'm into learning . Go Figure. ....

[@alltheworldsastage4785]

Better than Rob? Seriously? Lol

[@ParzivalTheThird]

Great timing for a Vishanti video ;)

[@benjaminfeld6388]

I think you may have left out one small detail. At one point Sir Isaac Newton actually held the title of sorcerer supreme. At least in the Marvel universe. But perhaps you can save that story for another video.

[@majinsole8554]

Born from a tear. Poetic. ~_~

[@trexadvent4726]

Can you do history of the Elementals(Hellfire, Magnum, Hydron and Zephyr), Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Inferno, Victorious, Gambit, Moondragon, Phyla_Vell and Genis-Vell along with the Supreme Intelligence, Mole_Man and Angel/Archangel along with Exodus and Ex-Nhilo?

[@dfailsthemost]

History of Vampires is a great video too. Like this one, it's pretty long and very detailed

[@extra_ordinary_plastic_poser]

Yes for more of all the things you said: strange, mordo, etc. ty

[@michaelkantner6420]

I would love to see a video of Dr. Druid! Next to Dr. Strange, he's my favorite sorcerer!

[@vasp99]

I'm compelled to correct your version of how the Ancient One was saved from Shuma Gorath by Dr. Strange . Strange did NOT destroy Yao's physical body . Strange entered Yao's mind and destroyed his ego which ended Yao's earthly life and his concept of what he was and was not making Yao ' one with the universe " .

[@terryvonmeyers3150]

I like to hear about Baron Mordo and Dr Druids origin story

[@trexadvent4726]

Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?

[@quentinfogger5755]

When are you going to do history of America-Chavez in honour of the release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness? Also when are you going to do history of Gambit according to last month's patreon poll?

[@tharubaba]

Yah we need badly Dr. Strange’s origin story .. pls pls do one for him. And Karl Mordo . 🧙‍♂️

[@dallinfeatherstone]

Yo why does 5:42 look like the set list for a local metal rock concert?? 😄

[@MerryMarvelite]

A lot of this information comes from the book Marvel Tarot, which isn't a traditional comic issue but has some trippy imagery like the page shown there.

[@Nohablo89]

Storm being a descendant of a sorceress makes her power set make so much more sense.

[@trexadvent4726]

Can you do history of Master Pandemonium, Sleepwalker, D'Spayre, Chthon, Mephisto, Black heart, Dormammu, Clea, Nightmare, Baron Mordo and Pkzkrfmknna along with Firestar and Vance_Astrovik AKA Justice?

[@neilmurphy966]

Yes to more info on Mordo.. I wondered if Pangold from the Dr Strange MCU movie was in the comics originally as well..? 🤔😀

[@rogersnick17]

Thank you Sir!

[@quentinfogger5755]

Can you do history of Ironheart, Jane Foster Thor, Eric Masterson_AKA_Thunderstrike, Amadeus_Cho, the Griever, Pepper Potts AKA Rescue and the Agents of Atlas along with Crescent, Morgan_Le_Fey, White Fox and Luna Snow?

[@ZetaEntity101]

Some good information good job in a video

[@Artisan1979]

Having the ancient one start out as a physician gives him a closer bond with Doctor Strange.

[@TheOvervoid]

Yes please do videos of Baron Mordo and Doctor Druid

[@FaisalAhmadNoori]

Thanks for at least listing all the sources of comic books.❤ Almost no one do this on their videos on KZbin

[@vincentfranklin17]

A most interesting origin indeed!

[@fredericoiglesias-adorno5700]

More on Dr. Druid.

[@abdulhasibjulien4602]

Yeah We Wanna Know About Druid Origin Story and Everything

[@blackphoenix77]

I really would like to see more about Yao's adventures as the Spirit Leopard; what comic book did he appear in in that identity?

[@MerryMarvelite]

That happened in Epic Anthology, a book from 2004 that only had a single issue. I considered it canon because Yao's identity of the Spirit Leopard was also referenced in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe.

[@MikelWash]

was it hard to source visuals for this video? curious why you choose these graphics did you create them yourself?

[@MerryMarvelite]

A lot of the art from this video, and indeed much of Agamotto's story, comes from a book called The Marvel Tarot.

[@Lordslothable]

Subbed!

[@twtninjayaungwarrior2127]

Amazing

[@Sentinel04]

I want to hear more about mordo

[@natsohigh5552]

Some of the names of the characters are hilarious. Love to know how the writers came up with them.

[@xdmztryvsvedine2773]

In the next DS movie, I bet we’ll see that floating city in a flashback or something along those lines.

[@leopumarejo3400]

Wow, I had no idea the ancient one was back, and teaching?

[@tonypowell9681]

Hello my friend great story yes please do one on dr strange dr Druid & vlad Dracula county man baron Mordo

[@abc_cba]

Please, do a series on Dr. Strange, his enemies, his storylines, etc. Thanks for the awesome narrations, it's very pacifying. Cheers from India 🇮🇳

[@charishackman6678]

Could you please do a video about Psyloke? I’d like to see a video about her.

[@devinkavanaugh1034]

Yes. Would love a strange video. Mordo aswell

[@ishaq72681]

More Mordo please

[@trexadvent4726]

What do you think is the best thing about the Vishanti(Hoggoth, Oshtur, Agamotto) and the Ancient One and which one of their powers and abilities do you think is the best? J like how we saw the Ancient One in the MCU during the first Doctor Strange movie, Do you think we will see the Vishanti in the MCU?

[@Naruchigo17]

Full doctor strange origin pls!!!

[@marc-antoinecusson3119]

Yes, please do a dr.strange video

[@MisterFantastic61]

Yes please do Doctor Strange!

[@josearmandovalenciayoga]

💖This video

[@trexadvent4726]

Who do you think is the best magic user mentioned in this video apart from the Vishanti, Doctor Strange the Ancient One? Are Set and Chthon the only villains the Vishanti fought against?

[@brianthomas2434]

Uh, could you cite the issues you gleaned this information from?

[@MerryMarvelite]

Sources are listed in the description but a lot of this one comes from The Marvel Tarot.

[@jthedarkwolfxtreem]

Wow some actual historic names interesting.

[@quentinfogger5755]

What do you think is the best thing about Agamotto and do you think we will see him in the MCU?

[@quentinfogger5755]

What would happen if there was a universe where Baron Mordo was the Sorcerer Supreme? Can you do history of Baron Mordo?

[@quentinfogger5755]

Can you do history of the Living_Brain, the Elementals, Cyclone, Hydro Man, Molten Man, the Spot, Sandman, Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Century, Lore and Technovore?

[@leogarcia1761]

How do y feel MCU calling itself 616?

[@krazy4k727]

I think marvel runaways would be a good one

[@kenney0313]

Thanks! This history actually mirrors true historical & biblical events. It's never good when there's more truth printed in comics than taught in school.
