    Poor thing. She wanted power, she wanted control. She didn't realize all she needed was the love that people around her would freely give. She was always a hero, she just couldn't see it from how low her self esteem was standing.

    One of my favorite lost characters from the 1980s. Glad to see her get some love here. I have always loved her original costume. The cover to the issue of The Thing where it reads "Introducing the NEW Ms. Marvel" is one of my favorite covers ever.
    Any chance we can get a video covering D-Man? or maybe Battlestar (Lemar Hoskins) ? seeing them in this video piqued my interest in them getting their own videos. .

    Thanks MerrMarvelite for bringing Sharon Ventura to the light. I knew this character from late 80's as MsThing when only 3 characters in th Fantastic Four. You told the whole story from beginning to end. Do you know how many comics that took ? Maybe 300 or more . Plus she is my favorite character next to Ms Invisible Woman and Captain Marvel on the 1980's Avengers. Thanks again and I'm forever grateful.

    That particular Thing series (the 1st actually) is a real underrated gem. The entire series with the possible exception of the final issue was great. A few other heroes also originally got their powers from the power broker (U.S. Agent & Battlestar). Another great video. I'd love to see a Battlestar video as he never gets any love. Also Jinx from the original Darkhold series would be nice. Thank again for the great work .

    My FAVORITE Sharon Ventura moment was when she had been mutated similarly to Ben Grimm.
    She started a ruckus in the middle of a court case where Ben was on trial and a bystander looked at her and said “Isn’t that Ms. Thing?”
    I was laughing for 10 minutes!

    This would have been a great resource when I was writing my submission for the Unofficial Canon Project in Project Road Trip. It basically takes an area not explored in the comics in depth, and suggests potential story hooks for the roleplaying game. [Marvel Super Heroes Advanced Set, that is. Not the recent playtest.]
    I had different options in case the players were solo or in a group, different power levels, etc. I had a scenario with Mysterio staging a kidnapping with the assistance of the Frightful Four, and I included Sandman and Ms. Marvel II in the lineup. Glad to know that it matched up.

    Power Broker Process is pretty interesting to me. It's got a 50-50 chance to wind up "stronger than Spider Man" (We all know Pete's got a heroism bonus in times of extreme need and goes well above his listed 10-25 tons even not counting that time an artist didn't realize a subway car was SIXTY tons and had him casually tossing one around like it was only a Bus.) But you'd think they could just genetically screen people for compatibility rather than YOLO it and have to take care of a bunch of super-strong mutated freaks.

She's also got lots of mundane skills, like gymnast, wrestler, motorcycle stunt rider, scuba and skydiver, mountain climber, stuntwoman, and Tae Kwon Do and American boxing. Oh, and her senses and ability to hold her breath are greatly extended in her She Thing form.

      He wore a mask for a while after his face was injured in a fight with Wolverine. Funnily enough, that mask first appeared back in the 60s when the FF got their matching uniforms, but back then, Ben decided not to wear it.
