Seeing Man Thing get a proper live action debut made me love this special even more. Of course I absolutely loved Jack and I loved all the references to the classic monster movies from Universal. Also, if you guys are interested here’s some background on Man Thing: Man Thing (real name Theodore “Ted” Sallis) burns people at his touch because when he senses people are afraid it makes him experience a sense of pain and he goes to snuff it out. When he finds the source of it, he touches it and the source burns at his touch. Although if the person stops being afraid Man Thing secretes a mucus type substance that stops the burning. Man Thing also guards a gateway to the Nexus of All Realities in the Everglades Swamp. The Nexus of All Realities basically allows you to travel the Multiverse which is what Man Tbing has done on several occasions when he was a part of the Thunderbolts when Luke Cage led the team. Here’s some reading recommendations if you’re interested: - Savage Tales #1 (first appearance) - Astonishing Tales (1970) 12-13 - Fear (1972) 11-19 - Man-Thing (1974) 1-22 - Giant-Size Man-Thing (1974) 1-3 - Incredible Hulk (1968) 197-198 - Marvel Team-Up (1972) 68 - Marvel Two-in-One (1974) 43 - Man-Thing (1979) 1-11 - Doctor Strange (1974) 41 - Giant-Size Man-Thing (1974) 4-5 - Monsters Unleashed (1973) 5, 8-9 - Rampaging Hulk (1977) 7 - Adventure into Fear (1972) #10-19 - Micronauts #7 - Infernal Man Thing (2012) #1-3 - Howling Commandos of S.H.I.E.L.D.(2015) #1-6 - Man Thing Vol. 5 (2017) #1-5 - Weapon H #3-12 - Thunderbolts (2006) #144-158, 161-164, 167, 169 - Dark Avengers #174, & #176-183

So Cool!

I can not tell you how happy I was to see Man-Thing, I had no idea he would be here and the way Jack said Ted killed me. Clarus: I am glad you enjoyed it.

They're not actually burn outs, they're "reel change" markers. Before digital, films were generally broken into 1000' reels played on alternating projectors. Because silent and talkies had a different number of frames per second, reels lasted a different length for each (aprox. 15 minutes for silents and 11 minutes for talkies). The first marker signaled when the protectionist should start the next projector, the second indicated when they'd shut off the lamp of the first projector and turn on the second. Done properly and the audience would never even realize the change happened. Interestingly, this show used silent film timing, and the pace was uneven, implying about a minute to minute-and-a-half "lost" footage that I suspect will be referenced in some later project.

The makeup that Jack Russell on his face is the same makeup style from Coco and he was in Coco too.

If all the Marvel Special Presentations have this quality, sign me up! I loved it! I love the wholesome ending! I think it’s the best thing Marvel has put out in 2022 and might be my second favorite Phase 4 project next to Shang-Chi. I wanted it to be a 2 hour movie. I love that this had no connection to the wider MCU outside of that shot of the OG Avengers at the beginning. I loved the chemistry between Jack & Elsa and Jack & Ted. I love Ted. I love that Jack just went in there to save his buddy. And I love that this isn't the first time he's had to do this for Ted. I think he is my new favorite MCU character. It didn't really scare me though but I don't know if it was supposed to. My only gripe really is Jack's face paint didn't contrast enough. It was hard to see in black and white. And I was hoping for another Blade tease in an end credit scene.

I have hope that this will not be the first Marvel special presentation short, there are many characters in the comics that don't really fit into the MCU movie format that could be introduced like this. Not necessarily monster types either, mid level heroes and villains that typically appeared in the smaller marvel books like team-up and spotlight. It would be great to see heroes like Machine Man, Tigra, and Wonder Man.
