Who is Marvel's Gentle? Wakandan "Hulk" with Vibranium Tattoos!

This video explores the abilities, powers, and origin of the Marvel Comics character "Gentle." From Nezhno Abidemi growing up in Wakanda as an outcast due to his outsider father and dangerously uncontrollable mutant abilities, local shaman attempting to remedy the super-powered tremors brought on by his powerful transformations by bonding raw Vibranium to him in temporary tattoos, his mutant physiology causing the Vibranium to permanently embed within his skin and muscles which limited his full-strength potential yet helped control his mutant powers, Storm Ororo Munroe and Black Panther T'Challa arranging for him to go train at the "Xavier Institute for Higher Learning," having power-levels that can potentially rival the strongest beings in the Marvel universe like Colossus and The Hulk despite having a pacifist nature, being one of the few mutants to retain their powers after the notorious M-Day event, being a part of multiple superhero teams such as the New X-Men and X-Men Red, to having new horizons after being freed from his weaknesses due to the mental healing of Jean Grey; Let's take a look at this vastly powerful mutant Wakandan superhero, and one of the strongest X-Men to ever exist. This includes a short, canon character biography and my own opinionated "Sage Rating," which I use to give ratings of comic book and science fiction characters.

Gentle is massively strong lifting 100 + tons. Glad he was eventually relieved of his seizures so he could grow into his fuller potential.

[@AifDaimon]

@@zyrus4712 it's probably his accent that makes "tons" sound different

[@gotchaabeech]

This man pronounces everything exactly how your supposed to pronounce it what accent this man’s American I can tell

[@Sunstar808]

Nothing wrong with his pronunciation or supposed accent 😒

[@FrqYgr]

Is speaking clearly an accent now?

[@renardthomas3046]

@@FrqYgr Apparently so... especially if you're black.

[@kaifrahman2703]

This guy is already a powerhouse. If he unleshes his potential, I guess he could reach the class of Hulk and Thor.

[@justified_wrath_21]

He’s definitely an underrated powerhouse.

@@NewSage WHY ARE THEY NO FULL WAKANDA MUTANTS?

[@AbhishekKr.Singh1609]

​​@@fbafoundationalbuck-broken6011in a Golden Age x-men comic it was said that the vibranium in the wakandan soil and thus the flora negates the occurrence of the x gene in the genetic structure of the wakandan people Idk if its still canon

[@brendagates38]

To be honest I can just imagine killmonger trying to sway Gentle to his way of thinking since they're both outsiders to Wakanda in fact I can just imagine a nice little comfort scene between them (Gentle and killmonger sitting together side by side watching sunset together) Gentle: I never should have come back these aren't my people. (Killmonger looks at him and puts a hand on his shoulder) Killmonger: well maybe our homes the ones that's lost that's why they can't find us.

[@AifDaimon]

If he could work on increasing his stamina limits, I think he'd eventually become nigh-unstoppable

[@SuperRONDALE]

He should take the pacer test daily.

[@ShadowFungus]

Just heard of him now; he’s quite interesting. I love that he is Really op but also has a drawback. Makes it more balanced and realistic.

[@onyx081]

Since his strength seems to be virtually unlimited, I think he should be classified as an Omega level mutant

[@jamahlmcmillon925]

Indeed

[@michaelblackwell5344]

No because he ain't stronger than the the Hulk

[@DarkstoryX]

Probably not since it’s just super strength. He’s not like Iceman or Magneto, who could potentially affect things on the planetary level and above

[@anyeverything7880]

@@DarkstoryX he may could break a planet. Would that count? Lol. Nothing affects a planet like it blowing up…. Lol!

[@DarkstoryX]

@@anyeverything7880 who knows. They classified Omega-Level as mutants whose abilities cannot be surpassed by any other known superhuman. Like how Forge can pretty much build whatever he can think of, but it still far below what Tony Stark can accomplish. Gentle can reach up to Base Hulk, but Hulk’s strength is literally immesurable since it comes from The One Below All/One Above All

[@kingsupreme3146]

Gentle is one of my new favorite characters. I him to be very very relatable, the "gentle" nature of this character reminds me of myself in that regard. I really have enjoyed the storylines featuring Gentle in them, they make it easy to see that the rumors of a Disney Plus show about Wakanda being made could be true. I would like to see such a show featuring a lot of character including Gentle of course, showing also Wakanda as the nation it is and how truly big it is with people and a rich cultural infrastructure. Thank you again my brother New Sage for sharing your GOD given blessings with us, I love it bro, greatness just pure greatness. All praise, glory and blessings be to the most high, awesome, loving, almighty, true and living GOD for all of HIS blessings that HE bestows upon us HIS family in CHRIST JESUS in the name of our Lord and savior JESUS CHRIST by the power of the HOLY SPIRIT. Again, I mean and say to you, I continue to and will always pray and ask of GOD that HE bless and always...forever shine upon / within you my brother New Sage (GOD bless you my brother truly in JESUS CHRIST name), keep shine brother, keep shining. Stay encouraged, keep inspiring all to greatness like you and stay frosty cause they don't get cooler than you...one love peace my brother, I may be repeating, but I mean every word; GOD bless you brother.

[@NewSage]

Yeah. A Wakanda show would be epic if it shows all of these interesting citizens! 💪🏽😁 Thanks again, for the support and prayers, brother! They're always welcome and appreciated. May the LORD God keep His blessings flowing to you too, man! Stay 🧊 😎... even in this summer heat! 😅👊🏽

I have never known about Gentle until I watch this video, New Sage. I do not read anything from Marvel or DC because of reasons (the last time I read anything from The Big Two, it was when The New 52 was a thing). I enjoy your channel because you help me keep up to day with what is going on with Marvel recently as well as when I stopped reading from The Big Two. Your videos are short, but they're on point, as well as highlighting lesser known characters, is why you're one of my favorite American comic book KZbinrs. I look forward for more of your videos & until then, live long & prosper.

[@kingpanther9198]

Wish marvel would do more with him. He can be a great force for Wakanda or x men

To say no one Is to say he Is literally god. While that is “Somewhat” true remember you said “no one” but lets put it like this. While hulk is unbeatable their are people that can actually go toe to toe with the hulk.

[@leonmiles4848]

Wow, never heard of him. Thank 😊

[@jaywu_chakra9919]

He needs to be in Black Panther 3. Since Marvel wants Ryan Coogler. To direct both BP& The XMen. Him being in BP3 would tether to the XMen movie. Especially at the end. When he leaves Wakanda,and goes to the Xmen mansion.

[@warpath7985]

As much as Mercury being the only person he feels when touched makes sense, that pic you showed was that of Trinary who's touch he felt.

[@elijahdubois7902]

Vibranium Tattoos?! That has to hurt his body.

[@youtubestudiosucks978]

Tattoos are modtly liquid powder based ink directly applied on the skin by scarring so the method would be similair. They havent released how they forge vibranium so who's to say that it requires actual heat and not some magical powers? Vibranium absorbs energy, mainly kinetic energy but how good does it conduct magic? They used it so long that they most likely have a couple of dozen spells to make it powder based and program a certain amount of it like a machine, like a whrench that not only does whatever a whrench does but it also shoots lasers and can be used like a cellphone or something similair :/

Yeah. 🤓👍🏼 I've covered Colossus before. However it's understood that Gentle's base level strength is around Colossus' level. But it can range wildly; And hit Hulk levels at his maximum "potential." Which is hundreds of times higher than 100 tons. 💪🏽😎
