Who is Marvel's Fantomex? Weapon XIII - Literal "Split Personality"

[@buckwilde2212]

I love the scene in which - I believe - X-Force is spying on some French supervillain group and they get Fantomex close enough to hear them in order to translate what they're saying... only for Fantomex to reply something along the lines of, "I don't speak French," followed shortly after by, "What? I just like the accent and it annoys people."

[@renzoyao2661]

Explaining about Fantomex is like being in a mathematics class.

[@jamesboyd985]

He is an extremely complicated new mutant, but one of my favorites. The dark Angel Saga is probably some of the best stuff I've ever read in marvel, let alone the artwork. Eva, the world, he's out there but awesome. Weapon x program at its finest.

[@noobslayer135]

Fantomex is weird AF. Makes 100% sense when you realize he was created by Grant Morrison lol

[@matthewbennett1972]

noobslayer135 yep that explains everything. I’m surprised he didn’t rap battle Apocalypse to death

[@ryanleatigaga7596]

Why does Fantomex look like the lovechild of Rorshach and Snake Eyes?

[@gilzineto]

I think hes actually inspired by diabolik or shit like this if I recall correctly!

[@Samson2323]

Ryan Leatigaga more like storm shadow

[@rcct44444]

Gilberto Egypto hes also based on Fantomas Look the books up High reccomendations

[@MH-ty7fb]

Because they wear masks and use a black and white color palette. It’s rather unimaginative.

[@levilamont8005]

Stormshadow.... he looks like Stormshadow

[@Someguywithalotoftism]

This is why I love grant Morrison, he has fun with the weird and makes it good. He makes concepts somehow more logical but weirder. I mean they're mutants, so have fun with the weird powers instead of making it generic like a lot of writers do.

[@jm_r245]

Reminds me of how Hirohiko Araki (creator of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure) writes his manga

[@juneberrysaint]

This dude has more powers than Superman.

[@kcvic]

he sounds as messed up as moon knight and they both wear white

[@NewSage]

LOL! Good comparison! I hadn't thought of that.

[@MarcAlcatraz]

exactly what i was thinking, team-up anyone?!

[@MarcAlcatraz]

and they both fight villians that wear the inverted version of their costume

[@Va1karius]

kcvic Actually, Moon Knight's costume is silver. An artist screwed up the color scheme. The reason his costume is silver/platinum is because Moon Knight was a werewolf hunter too.

[@MarcAlcatraz]

yeah thats correct Steven Chang but since his 1990's run he's been white and black

[@khaiphamba5991]

And that, my friends, is the dude appearing in the intro of every New Sage video. Now, due to his inflence on the New Sage channel, from my 1-10 rating, I'll give this dude a rating of 10, which a legendary rating!

[@quentinduhart1791]

this guy sounds hard in a good way. it would be hard for them to make movie about this guy. wouldn't mind though

[@anthonyvoskuhl9200]

super underrated and under used character!

[@rhaeghartargaryen871]

New Sage I'm digging your choice of characters that you review they all seem to have an edgy vibe to them and are quite extreme compared to the normal comic book characters. Very cool concept you got going here keep it up bro.

[@dominus3197]

Anthony Voskuhl Rick Remender run with him in Uncanny X-Force is Legendary. Made him my favorite X-character.

[@dantecrottogini529]

but when he is properly used he is one of the best characters

They wanted to do so much with the character they split him into three entities lol.

[@letsgoooo9200]

all i ask is for a fantomex arkham city type game

[@DedHedZed]

one of my favorite characters. really wish they did more woth him.

[@NevTheDeranged]

this guy literally sounds like they rolled a bunch of dice on the powers table and then halfassed the backstory to make it all fit.

[@deadcool3227]

Actually Fantomex talks in a thick french accent because he likes it, and also because it annoys people XD

[@jmsta.romana4660]

Deadpool, you kicked his silly accent out of his mouth once, now he's a French X-Men member. (Hero Mutants)

[@anwarhall2405]

Some of these characters have overly complicated skills and abilities. This Fantomex character makes zero sense.

[@ryantheroux8531]

I first found him in x-force. That was a great run with 4 of my favorite "mutants"

[@jadentab3415]

He created Evan by cloning Apocalypse. He was trying to prove that even though a person is born to be evil, it does not mean that he will definitely be evil in the future. Even though this created a lot problems, but I kind of like his idea.

[@dakotacouture9321]

He makes me think of G.I. Joe! This dude is awesome. I think him and Deadpool would be buddies.
