Awesome
There's gonna be a pond family reunion
Do a history of sabertooth
I vote X-Men Origins: Nightcrawler(the backstory of Azazel and Mystique gave birth to their son Kirk Wagner the Nightcrawler)
Nightcrawler is also canonically Catholic.
I have to admit Nightcrawler's portrayal in "X-Men: Apocalypse" was genuinely a pretty cool part of that deficient movie. Kodi Smit-McPhee, the actor who played him, is a truly phenomenal and underrated young actor that knew how to capture the personality of the Kurt from the comics and 2000's movies. I also loved his portrayal of Oskar/Owen in the romantic horror film "Let Me In"
He was pretty good 👍
Do you think that actor who played him should play the MCU version of Nightcrawler?
@@quentinfogger5755yes
@@quentinfogger5755 my favorite recommendation for a Nightcrawler for MCU would always be Asa Butterfield.
I loved Nightcrawler in the movies. One thing they got right.
Kurt may have a demonic appearance but he has a heart of an angel
That's not really true. Nightcrawler has become a prop to make other characters look good. He's still friends with mutants who are willing to kill people.
Thank goodness for this comment!
@@gaki8844 It's true
AAAAAAHHHHHHH!
For reals man. When I use to watch the show I felt bad for him but he ended up being my favorite one out of all of them. Not only that he looks badass in that show back in the 90/00's
You forgot about his tail being Prehensile, his ability to Shadow Blend, and that even with his training in the circus his flexibility is insane.
Also didn't mention his ability to stick to walls
Without
Also, nothing about the Neyaphem and the brimstone dimension?
@@lilshabaz1862Azrael is not his father anymore luckily
@@meswoopnoseenothinghow does that work?
I never watched the X-Men animated show but based on the one thing I saw of him in it. So trusting, hopeful and forgiving. The religious version of his backstory I’ve heard is so wonderful
It's almost a requirement for his character. Without his morals, Nightcrawler could one shot most characters who aren't incredibly durable and without a strong healing factor.
So, Batman?
Cool religious moment in the comic. Uncanny X-Men 159 is the first time they fight Dracula. When they realize who they're fighting, Wolverine pops a claw on each hand and makes a cross only to get swatted away. Dracula tells him it's pointless if you have no religious faith. Then Nightcrawler grabs two stakes and let's Dracula know that they are not lost for "...I believe" and shuts him down temporarily with his own cross.
Thank you so much. Nightcrawler is not only my all time favorite X Men character. But he is such a underrated character it is borderline criminal.
I think Nightcrawler is criminally underrated and needs some more attention. I wonder who would play him in the MCU. 🤔
Timmothee chalamet 😂😂😂
That would be cool and interesting
I think it should be the same actor who played him in X-Men Apocalypse and X-Men Dark Phoenix since this would be similar to Charlie Cox reprising his role as Daredevil in the MCU
That would be great, too.
Tony Jaa... let it sink in....🤔😁
His X2 White house scene is still one of my favorite movie moments of all time
Me too, I will always remember and love that opening scene.
Likewise he’s one of my favorite xmen in general but his scene in that movie is one of my top 10 favorite superhero fight scnes
Wolverine: "Living with a condition like yours must be pretty hard, right, son?"
Nightcrawler: "Yeah. It's amazing how many person can hate germans"
Wolverine: 😐
We need a standalone nightcrawler movie
Just wanna point out how awesome his adopted mom was, making him more disciplined and toughening him up when he was chased down, instead of feeling sorry for him.
such an underated character he isn’t used enough
For me, my first time seeing Nightcrawler I was playing X-Men Mutant Academy 2 and I instantly became intrigued by his design, powers & character arc. I admire his swordsmanship. 💯
Nightcrawler is one of my favorite X-Men member! Are you going to cover the new X-Men Blue Origins about him?
He's one of my favorite X-Men.
Thanks for this! Nightcrawler has always been my favorite X-Man since I was a kid. Proud to say I have that original Nightcrawler mini! I was around 13 when it came out, so…
What I’ve always found fascinating is that most X-men and they’re villains have names that sound like they were self named as teenagers. Not a bad thing, maybe because teen years are usual when mutants develop their powers.
Why didn't you mention in the powers and abilities his prehensile tail? or his wall-crawling abilities?
I wish they would do a video on sabretooth. He’s an awesome wolverine villain.
Nightcrawler is one of the most popular Marvel characters in the Marvel history and he is best known as the member of the X-Men.
His also my favourite
my favorite X-Men! favorite superpower also! would love to see more Nightcrawler in modern media
Grew up with this channel! Love Nightcrawler
Kurt has to be introduced to street level. I need to see him with Daredevil. Their required Hero Vs Hero fight would be great.
Nice
He’s taking over as Spider-Man. Check out UNCANNY SPIDER-MAN. Late September.
@@juandelossantos1866 Yessir. I’m just hoping he starts spending more time away from the X-Men. All X characters would benefit from a split after the Krakoa project fails.
Rogue & Gambit should be sent to space with Captain Marvel. Gambit/Captain Marvel combos would be interesting 🤔
@@Marx1684 the hellfire gala was crazy! It went down!!
Always touched whenever we talk about nightcrawlers origins.
thanks for this, always loved this character as a kid.
My all time favorite marvel character!! Been waiting for this video and it didn't disappoint can't wait to see him in the MCU!!!
I love Nightcrawler!
He’s my fav x men😁
Thank you for doing a video on him
I have been waiting for you guys to do this, what seems "forever". Yeassss! 🙏
Just wanted to say, love your channel!
This was great! Thanks! Would love to see Colossus talked about.
That first image of Nightcrawler encapsulates one of the biggest sins of depicting the character: he is not supposed to be that blue.
He is always given heavy shadowing to show that he is in fact designed to look almost like eerie moonlight.
Bluish but shadowy, almost a dark purple.
X2 did a surprisingly good job being faithful to this
X-men Unlimited issue #4 is another good Nightcrawler origin issue.
My FAVORITE X-Men! I was hoping you were going into more details abour other dimension he visits while teleporting. It's always been a little unclear to me. Love the channel.
Was searching for a variant nightcrawler video a few days ago thank god 😁
Highly underrated, technically, he could take out most of the X-Men if he wanted/needed to, including Wolverine.
Brilliantl creation powers costume and origin are all so striking
I need a history of Storm, she's underrated and a true badass
I would love to see a history of Sunfire as well! He's my favourite character but doesn't appear much sadly, would love to know more about him!
Thank You!
I love Nightcrawler. He's one kf my favorite members of the X-Men.
Ok, the list of Nightcrawler reads are: Giant sized X-Men #1, Amazing X-Men #1-5: the quest for Nightcrawler, Excalibur Vol 1-#42-46, Nightcrawler miniseries (1985), Age of X-Men: The Amazing Nightcrawler #1-5.
Nightcrawler is the only Marvel Hero I collect (I'm generally a villains fan), and I absolutely adore him. The Devil Inside / The Winding Way arc is another one that was just... *chefs kiss*
That... kind of makes sense. He has a very awesome villainous character design despite being an all-around nice guy.
I’d like to think to myself that his teleportation powers weren’t used for the first time to save his sister but to save himself as an infant when his mother threw him down the water fall. Obviously an unconscious use of his powers being an infant but an infant can still feel fear which usually activates powers.
Stefan is giving me Loki vibes. Jealous of his brother.
I LOVE the amazing X-Men! I started to collect them and read the, because of Nightcrawler. There’s also a comic where it has the nightcrawler from the x men movie on the cover and it’s about him. I love Nightcrawler, he’s very underrated.
X-Men Unlimited #4 has amazing art and a really great origin story for Nightcrawler and Rogue in regards to their relationship to Mystique and Graydon Creed.
As a kid I grew up evangelical and there wasn't much I could watch. Nightcrawler was my favorite X-man because despite his devilish appearance he loved everyone and tried to speak strength and wisdom to his friends. I feel like that is what a real man of God and Nightcrawler embodies that perfectly. Loving people even when they fear and hate you
would love if you covered Sleepwalker's origin. imo, so under rated in the Marvel universe.
Watching X-Men first Class I had wondered if Azazel and Mystique where his parents. Omg! This is the first confirmation I ever got for that
Well your right about mystique
One of my favorite X-men of all time
One of the best origin stories I ever seen. I must say though, Mystique definitely ain’t a mother I’d be proud of, chick handed out that 😼 like groceries at Publix.
Awesome I love nightcrawler
Nightcrawler and gambit are two of my favorite X-men and I hope they reach the pop culture status that Wolverine and cyclops have
Can you'll please do a top 10 fire characters and ice characters separately for both Marvel and DC.
also the best character in the X-Men Arcade game 😁
oops im too early this time - 46 seconds after posting
The best X-Men member of all time finally gets his own dedicated video!
Please do a history of Animal Man video. He’s easily DC’s most underrated super hero and he deserves some recognition especially since it’s the first story Grant Morrison wrote for DC and it was phenomenal
Can you do a history of magneto, please? 🙏
Loved learning about Nightcrawler's origin; still wanna know if there's any connection to Rogue. I heard they're were siblings and children of Mystique. That being said, in keeping with the X-men theme history of... episodes, one about Gambit would be cool too.
The first time I heard of Nightcrawler was threw X-Men: Evolution.
Uhh I think you forgot to mention when nightcrawler reunited with his birth mother many times.
He forgot so much key stuff
Nightwing and nightcrawler would be best friends
Do a history of Ted Kord Blue Beetle
I vote X-Men Origins: Nightcrawler(the backstory of Azazel and Mystique gave birth to their son Kirk Wagner the Nightcrawler)
Wow I thought u guys already did this
One of the Mutie GOATs
Cool!
Nightcrawler my 2nd favorite X-Men character
In the future, could you please do a video of the most powerful colossus moments? For example, the time when Colossus had the powers of the juggernaut to fight the juggernaut or when Colossus became one of the five who got possessed by the Phoenix force in the Avengers vs X-men storyline please🙏?
Can you do a history of colossus, please 🙏?
Loved Nightcrawler since a child (was introduced by the Xmen Arcade beatem up) and the fact he has the same name as me but spelled with a C.
Can you do the history of magneto, zorro, judge dredd, Cassie hack, qwenpool, hit monkey, vamperrella, moon girl & devil dinosaur and league of extraordinary gentlemen
With his powers and abilities, I've seen Kurt do a bit of "shadow melding" being a bit out of phase with the light and being partially see through...
I forget which issue but it’s the one where xforce is trying to stop the people building nimrod. During the age of x or house and powers of x series. Nightcrawler, literally just keeps spewing and dying over and over again until he is able to reach the nimrod and sabotage it. Like straight up just kept diving head first into dead until he figured out the most efficient path to get everyone there safely. That’s got to be a jarring experience and he did it without a second thought. Or when he and Logan ported into space near the surface of the sun. What an epic moment
Nightcrawler is my favourite x-man since X-2 movie and I can see myself in him.
Nightcrawler is underrated member of the X-Men.
My favorite character of all time
Finally my favorite character gets some love
Who is more an optimist and thus the heart of their team?
Beast Boy or Nightcrawler?
A history of Gambit and or Rogue please and thank you.
Nightcrawler is definitely one of my favorite X-Men members.
So when are you going to do history of DC Despero since he is one of the biggest Justice League Villians from the Comics?

If to see him in certain card games. He's very cool
I would like you to do histories of all the individual x men
The circus backstory makes more sense, with Kurt's, gymnastic skills.
Awesome
he crawls during the night.
Took way too long for you to finally get to Nightcrawler. 😃 He's been my favorite comic book character for well over 30 years now.
One of my favorite x-men..esp the toys…they do him no Justice!
As much as I love Nightcrawler, you should’ve done a cyclops video first😂.. or storm.
Nightcrawler is my all-time favorite Marvel mutant
1 of my top 5
I always thought Nightcrawler was cool! Nice video! BAMF!
You forgot to mention, he can stick to any surface, like Spiderman.
Now I wonder who’s the better acrobat Nightcrawler or Nightwing
Kurt is my favorite Xman (followed by Blink).
Peace!
\o/
I miss when these videos weren’t just advertisements
Nightcrawler is my third favorite X-Men.
