hey mojo, i have a very good idea for you. can you do top 10 super hero feats of strength? hulk, gladiator, superman, batman, sentry, martian man-hunter? that would be a cool idea.
Dazzler is my favorite. I also find it interesting that Charles Xavier's son suffers from multiple personality disorder, and coincidentally James McAvoy plays a character with multiple personalities AND Charles Xavier
Britt Waller no. X men was dominating the sales of marvel in the 90s, the avengers weren’t on their level, and after awful mismanagement, there popularity dropped, just so the Avengers could be Marvel’s #1, I guess mutantphobia exists in real life as well
It has some nice moments, some good writing here and there and some truly great voice acting in places, but a lot of the scripts are awful, while the animation started off mediocre and only got worse as the show progressed. I loved it as a kid, but it hasn't aged well.
The closest thing we have to a Dazzler series right now is the original Jem cartoon. The early Dazzler comics, which came out before that show, actually bear some strong similarities -- with the exception that Dazzler's powers are mutant, not technological, and she doesn't have an emotionally-abusive, purple-haired Ken doll to lie to and be mistreated by.
actually "the dazzler" has a larger rack, signifying that she is a more powerful superhero according to the marvel universe. Stan lee himself knows that if you wanna be a superhero, ya gotta at least be rockin some dbl D's up top. i didnt make the rules, jus sayin
She is awesome. She ones injured an arm while in a fight, her only weapon was her bow and arrows, so she did what only a real badass would do, she fired her arrow with her foot!
Nah, I remember him no problem. He was the...tallish ...shortish guy? Blackish ...whitish appearance? With the thingy in his hand...or was it in his pocket? Yea,that guy!
Tora-no-shi 1369 The cartoon from the early to mid-90's was pretty good. I've been reading comics since I was 6 years old in 1988. So, I feel ya on being a comics fan decades before the movies were even a thought
You got Magik, the coolest one on this list, COMPLETELY wrong. First off, teleport disks are her mutant power. She got the sorcery from being trained in Limbo, where she became their leader, not just Sorcerer Supreme. And you forgot the part where she freaking grew up there.
Thank you! I was specifically looking in the comments to see if someone would point out what idiots watchmojo is!! Sorcery is not her mutant power, is a by-product; something she learned in Limbo when she was captured and trapped there. Then she had her own personal coup and took over.
Honestly, I'm calling it, when Fox releases that New Mutants movie, they'll say Illyana's Soulsword is her mutant powers or some shit they won't bother to research on.
@@geloserrano2360 you really think they're gonna even bother trying to explain all that history behind how she got the Soulsword in the first place lol that's like a movie or 2 by itself.
Monet St. Croix is definitely on my list! She's intelligent, beautiful, powerful, and a total badass. I hope to see her in future X-men films/TV shows 😭😭😭
I need all the original GenX kids to get their due. They all had such distinct personalities and power sets. Man, I miss that book, even as goofy and downright awful as it was at times.
These are fairly well known characters. I was expecting some underrated X-Men that have hardly had any exposure in mainstream media, like M, Chamber, Cypher, Nocturne, The Stepford Cuckoos....and a long list of etc.
@@Tarikkb i mean who would not know something theyre reading....i mean the only reason people know it cause they read em...so like theres no really key on how you would know a thing if you wouldnt know it....
Niall Reid fair enough. I thought you might be trolling. I've recently picked up Xmen again ahead of the new Gold/Blue teams. Blackbolt's big power is his voice, Dazzler absorbs this and turns it back on him. Death of X is an easy 4 comic run if you want an easy pick up to get involved. Inhumans vs Xmen is what it leads to.
Ilyanna's power is not Sorcery. That is something she learned from Limbo's Storm and Belasco. Her mutant ability is the creating of teleportation discs, which allow her to immediately travel to any place at any time. Even between dimensions.
Yes forge was her main piece for a while but I think she ended up with black panther... something about obligation and her being revered as a goddess in Africa and him being a king there and all.... no 100% but I know I read that somewhere.
@@punkwrestle I love Longshot and Dazzler but Longshot is an altered clone to their child. So funny how marvels current writers fuck up beautiful old stories just to put their stamps on it
Actually, almost all of these mutants are pretty well-known. Nate Grey played a big role in the 90s X-men/Avengers crossover event battling the monstrous entity of Onslaught. (Loved that series by the way). Longshot, as shown in the video, was featured in the 90s X-men animated series, and also in several comicbook stories and groups (like the Exiles volume one). Everyone should be familiar with the rest in this video. Who doesn't know Forge, Sunfire, Danielle Moonstar, Dazzler and Cannonball by now?
Fantomex, Dazzler, & Magik have been in a lot of other series other than X-Men. They're well known these days. The latter two are involved the the IvsX story now out. Danielle is also gonna be in the New Mutants film soon as well as Legion is getting a show this month.
Didn't she end up with the X-Men during the Messiah Wars era - either before or after her brief stint with X-Force there? Honestly don't remember. Loved that run of X-Force though :)
If you're not a comic reader, you'll be surprised. If you do, you'll be disappointed by this list. I was hoping for truly obscure X-men characters, & this list isn't it.
Gonna be honest, I may have confused her with Jubilee. In my defense, it looks like the both have sparkle-based powers. I have at least heard Dazzler's name before this video though. What do you want from me? I'm a DC Comics guy.
+Zexion Cornejo oh I see, I read your OP as that you thought it was embarrassing the dazzler is on this list instead of black bolt, must have misread it
Dazzler is likely one of the characters that they used to create the premise for Jem. Her original comic book was very similar. In fact, one of the applications of her sound-to-light power is...wait for it...the projection of fully realistic, three-dimensional holograms.
Legion is too fucking OP, he is like 2nd strongest mutant (if Jean Grey doesn't have Phoenix Force), and Legion was the reason why Apocalypse came to Earth
Legion can posses/absorb powers/abilities which is not an Omnipotent ability, so Legion can only stay like Nigh-Omnipotency, but hey there would be a chance that he can beat Franklin Richards right?
Dazzler was definitely the first character to come to mind, since I remember seeing her as a playable character in the "X-Men" arcade game released by Konami. :)
Jerome Tenorio No lie, I'm a big X-Factor fan. I even have issue 100, The Death of Multiple Man. Hell, I still have the issue where Strong Guy goes toe-to-toe with Blob
remember when Rictor and Shatterstar became a couple and Marvel paraded them around for good press then as soon as X-Factor finished they were never seen again? le sigh.
it is amazing that the list still has mad footage to accompany it...I agree with the underrated nature of all characters listed which is a testament to the 1990s animated series
8:14 Anyone else think of her as Rachel Grey or is it just me? Anyway I pretty glad a lot of my favourite X-Men made the cut though I think the honourable mentions should have been a bit longer but hey that's just me
When I watched Dark Phoenix in theaters with my boyfriend I freaked when Dazzler made her cameo. My boyfriend looked at me confused and said "Who's that?" I told him we may have to break up (we didn't, but I gave him grief for the rest of the evening for not knowing this awesome character).
Haven't heard of a few of these. Must b from after I got out of comics in the very early '90s. Both Majik and Cannonball were pretty well known in the '80s, especially Majik who had her own comic mini-series.
I'm sorry but, do you know if the show has a Nightcrawler in it or not. And when I say Nightcrawler I mean a polite, bad-ass guy who wants to be a pirate.
Is it coincidence or ADVERTISING that put your number one as a character soon to air on Fox TV? This is bull. You should have put actual characters that nobody knows like Anole, Beak, Mammomax, kid Apocalypse, Husk, Mercury. Why didn't you just title the video "Watch Legion on Fox this week"?
Darwin has always been my favorite mutant. Hate what they did to him in First Class, still pissed about it. His adaptive/reactive abilities has always been a personal favorite of mine; forgot adamantium claws, controlling metal or manipulating the weather. ✌️O.o
I’ve always had an interest in Nate Grey aka The X-Man. He seems like a really awesome character, and really badass! Also, I like the fact that he’s basically what Cable was supposed to be.
Dazzler is the most underated. Unlike other characters who generally win in the last minute by doing something they could have and should have done at the start, Dazzler power is finite. Her power has ammo and can only be used based on what she can change sound into light and store. Even what she can store is limited as it slowly drains. No sound and she can create enough light to see in the dark, stand next to a 747 and she can produce enough power to blast through one like a rocket. She should be the easiest to write because of that yet she is offer overlooked completely. Her main attack is essentially Yu Yu Hakusho's Spirit Gun where she fires laser bullets from her finger shaped like a gun till she is out of energy. Based on her ammo source she can be the weakest member of the team overshadowed by Jubilee, produce a blast that will leave Cyclops and the rest of the team in shock and awe, or snap her fingers and cause a 360 degree explosion that would rival a tactical nuke based on the power source she is pulling from.
Great job on the list! Correction for y'all regarding Legion. You said he suffers from Dissociative Personality Disorder, but the correct name for that diagnosis is Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly referred to as Multiple Personality Disorder).
Fantomex. I think he's overrated, even as "obscure" as he is. All complicated backstory and powers, no personality to speak of -- he was Morrison's attempt to parody the 90s-era badass, before fans missed the point and took him seriously despite that.
See some of these X-men in action for yourself!

Amore a tee
Blaze Allen yea dazzler was very under rated an not well known enough fir all the power she had
That awkward moment when Watchmojo respects the X-Men more than Marvel Comics does currently.
Spectacular Spider-Man Marvel respects them less so the Fox x-men movies lose any interest by the people’s

Sad
This just made me realize how awesome the 90s X-Men cartoon really was
It has some nice moments, some good writing here and there and some truly great voice acting in places, but a lot of the scripts are awful, while the animation started off mediocre and only got worse as the show progressed. I loved it as a kid, but it hasn't aged well.
too bad chris claremont hated it LOL
Reminds me how absolutely horrible it was. So incredibly bad and ridiculous.
I have a Disney+ subscription so I've been rewatching the 90s one
@@ger5565 You must be thinking of something else. Neither you nor Mega Zetas are describing the 90s cartoon.

Allen Ferreira agreed, And I personally think that The perfect actress to portray her would be Taylor Momsen
She's coming to the new xmen movie dark phoenix
@@undertakenfrog-_-629 Yeah...For 30 seconds.
I can't believe Dani Moonstar is mentioned! She's my favorite.

She is awesome. She ones injured an arm while in a fight, her only weapon was her bow and arrows, so she did what only a real badass would do, she fired her arrow with her foot!
No mention of ForgetMeNot? Then again, its probably due to the fact no one remembers who he is.
Christopher Gump who? lolol
Christopher Gump he is known as a joke but is known of. Most do mot realize how powerful he could be.

Dazzler has been quite popular lately. She's a part of the A-force comics so I wouldn't put her on the list personally.
Sinpansara She is also quite important to the IvX arc currently going on as she is one of the few mutants to be able to take on Blackbolt
Daniel Sherratt How does that work? Wouldn't he just have to punch her?
Niall Reid Really? Are you up to date with current goings on or just commenting to join in?
Daniel Sherratt The second one. I've been trying to get into Xmen lately but I don't know where to start. So I'm just curious.

dazzler's mutant powers are wonderful
Jason Browne why
Turn sounds into light
Jason Browne: especially fighting Klaw or when she one teamed up with Black Bolt (who, of course, yelled for her)
Forge was also a long time Boyfriend of the X-men's Storm, right? At least that's what I also remember....
Their relationship was complicated, but yes, it amounted to that.

Sunspot, Rictor, Guido, Random, Cypher, Doop. Hell, even Lila Cheney.

and has a tv show.
For me,that fuck him up
Forge was in Evolution too. I always thought it was freaky how he morphed his arm into a universal tool.
Forge was in wolverine and the x-men. Not evolution
wesleyv1 he appears in evolution trapped in another dimension with nightcrawler

Wolfsbane, Captain Britain?
nightcrawler's daughter. Layla.
kevindagame actually Captain Britain isn't an X-Men he's the head of Excalibur...his sister Psylocke is an X-man
Wolfsbane is the only member of the original New Mutants NOT to join the main X-Men team, she's always been on the ancillary groups
Didn't she end up with the X-Men during the Messiah Wars era - either before or after her brief stint with X-Force there? Honestly don't remember. Loved that run of X-Force though :)
Don't think so. Wikipedia has a list of all team members on the X-Men page and she's the only one of the original five not listed
Are you kidding? Magik, Sunfire and Legion are "not-known" X-Men characters?
And yet, Polaris continues to get the shaft. smh
Dazzler more known
Dazzler was rumored to be played by none other than Taylor Swift and was supposed to make an appearance in X-Men Apocalypse
Rambo Luib I actually would have loved that for some reason
Brian Singer also did an April Fools day prank a while ago saying he was casting Lady GaGa as Dazzler.

It was only one episode in the godawfully animated 5th season -- the next-to-last episode, truth be told. So I don't blame you for forgetting.
Awesome list!
It should be noted that X-Men Evolution was made by WB, Not Disney-ABC like the video says.
I was kind hoping for Marrow but these were also great!
No Bishop?
Believe it or not, Bishop is almost as recognizable as Cable.
I wonder why.
Hero LumiEre Lumanite really? I thought Magik would be more recognizable tbh
Tony I only learnt about her during the "Fear Itself" arc in MC.
Bishop is actually fairly well known
it's because of Days of Future Past

when was Cannonball on X-Factor? I remember him most on X-Force....
Pretty sure they meant X-Force.
awesome video i love when hoy do an x-men video keep fue good work
8:14 Anyone else think of her as Rachel Grey or is it just me? Anyway I pretty glad a lot of my favourite X-Men made the cut though I think the honourable mentions should have been a bit longer but hey that's just me
While I was growing up, she was Rachel Summers, but she never really stood out to me before she took the Grey surname.
So nice to release a video on my fav superhero team when it's my Birthday :)
Dazzler is known enough.
I miss Forge. But I think I remember Legion in one of the Marvel anime series
What about Morph
Morph was never a mainstream-universe X-Man. His counterpart, Changeling, died back in the 60s serving as an impersonator of Professor X.
This one's for you, Morph!
Morph was a good friend of Wolverine in the early cartoon series
Age of Apocalypse Morph was one of my all time favorites. Can't believe he wasn't on the list.
Stfu
This was a great list.
Shameless clickbait Mojo, I expected better.
That's why I clicked.
Husk was always one of my favorites. ^.^ She got more roles then some, but I still would have liked to have seen more of her in the series.
2:12 that was not from First Class but DOFP
Yes!
Forge and Moonstar always felt underated to me... also Bishop
What about Spike?
Jon155mt what about toad
wow x-men evolution
spike is literally just a male version of marrow.
Jerome Tenorio Exactly
Spyke*
This was cool. thx!
Longshot is awesome. If he ever makes it into a film, he better have his classic golden mullet.
I’m happy that Longhsot, Moonstar and Dazzler were in this but Pixie and Boom Boom should’ve been on the list too.
legion has his own f*cking tv show!! how does he make the list?? what about mimic? other than me, who remembers him?
When I watched Dark Phoenix in theaters with my boyfriend I freaked when Dazzler made her cameo. My boyfriend looked at me confused and said "Who's that?" I told him we may have to break up (we didn't, but I gave him grief for the rest of the evening for not knowing this awesome character).
7:22 The "Mojo"verse
Haven't heard of a few of these. Must b from after I got out of comics in the very early '90s. Both Majik and Cannonball were pretty well known in the '80s, especially Majik who had her own comic mini-series.
I love the X-Men I hope they get a new show. I liked all the ones they had so far
legion is getting his own live action show on fx premiering feb. 8th
princephillay
They're doing another show. They cast Blink and are looking for Polaris
I'm sorry but, do you know if the show has a Nightcrawler in it or not. And when I say Nightcrawler I mean a polite, bad-ass guy who wants to be a pirate.
Iagree with your picks and honorable mention but you forgot Sun spot Roberto Dacosta, Rhaine Siclair wolfsbane apart from that great video thanks. :)
Is it coincidence or ADVERTISING that put your number one as a character soon to air on Fox TV? This is bull. You should have put actual characters that nobody knows like Anole, Beak, Mammomax, kid Apocalypse, Husk, Mercury. Why didn't you just title the video "Watch Legion on Fox this week"?
Because fuck you, that's why. Legion wasn't always that well known.
Darwin has always been my favorite mutant. Hate what they did to him in First Class, still pissed about it. His adaptive/reactive abilities has always been a personal favorite of mine; forgot adamantium claws, controlling metal or manipulating the weather. ✌️O.o
I searched the whole section of comments, and nobody brought up Northstar!
I’ve always had an interest in Nate Grey aka The X-Man. He seems like a really awesome character, and really badass! Also, I like the fact that he’s basically what Cable was supposed to be.
No mention of Betsy Braddock/Psylocke (the non-asian one), or Sage, or Wolfsbane. Warlock, Sunspot or Cypher? And only Karma gets an HM?
SSobotkaJr Wow, someone else remembers 'original' Betsy Braddock(Psylocke)/Revanche! 😄
She was awesome... the issue when she died/ committed suicide was really sad 😢
Oh and Warpath. He's really cool. I'd love to see him in a new X Men movie
Moonstar lost her powers after the House of M event...
She is still an x-men character.
mounir maged Yes, still Dan should have mentioned that she eventually lost her powers...
Jim Gorr True.
And she's still a fucking boss.
tragic!
Ive loved the cover art for Dazzler since first seeing an issue as a little kid. Can’t say I’ve ever actually READ any issues but I loved the design!
Phantomex is cool asf
Dazzler is the most underated. Unlike other characters who generally win in the last minute by doing something they could have and should have done at the start, Dazzler power is finite. Her power has ammo and can only be used based on what she can change sound into light and store. Even what she can store is limited as it slowly drains. No sound and she can create enough light to see in the dark, stand next to a 747 and she can produce enough power to blast through one like a rocket. She should be the easiest to write because of that yet she is offer overlooked completely. Her main attack is essentially Yu Yu Hakusho's Spirit Gun where she fires laser bullets from her finger shaped like a gun till she is out of energy. Based on her ammo source she can be the weakest member of the team overshadowed by Jubilee, produce a blast that will leave Cyclops and the rest of the team in shock and awe, or snap her fingers and cause a 360 degree explosion that would rival a tactical nuke based on the power source she is pulling from.
always thought Pink should play Dazzler lol
This is because of her stint in New Excalibur, isn't it? :p
Either pink or Kylie minogue
Brittany Spears or Lady Gaga? 😂
I think Kate McKinnon could make a good Dazzler...
Any X-Men video is a good video! :D
who doesn't know about forge??? days of future past the cartoon episodes from the 90's has him helping wolverine
I was wondering the same thing. How is Forge unknown?
Great job on the list!
Correction for y'all regarding Legion. You said he suffers from Dissociative Personality Disorder, but the correct name for that diagnosis is Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly referred to as Multiple Personality Disorder).
really legion is #1 that was one of my fav arcs only one i didn't really know was #9 Phantasmex
Fantomex.
I think he's overrated, even as "obscure" as he is. All complicated backstory and powers, no personality to speak of -- he was Morrison's attempt to parody the 90s-era badass, before fans missed the point and took him seriously despite that.
Longshot isn’t a mutant. He was given his powers.
Steve Fratus but he is a X-men
4:12-Dazzler was a favorite of mine when I was a kid
