    "You've got no strength, no powers, so why are you the leader?"
    Zemo puts Abomination on the ground.
    "Because I'm better than you."

    If the Avengers battle cry is “Avengers Assemble”, the battle cry of the Masters of Evil should be “Tear them Apart”

    Baron Zemo has been my favorite supervillain since first issue of Thunderbolts, he is like a cross between Cobra Commander (GI Joe) and Doctor Doom. They did him dirty in the MCU because he is a super fun character, he is not a "magneto" doing evil for the better good, he is an egomaniac who thinks he is better than everyone else. His plans often fail because of his ego.

    I got Thunderbolts number 1 when I was a kid mostly because it was the 90s and getting number 1s was just what you did, and I will never be able to replicate the equal parts of shock, betrayal, and mischievous glee I felt after reading that final page twist.

  • @rubiconprime1429
    @rubiconprime1429 5 месяцев назад +9

    I don’t know if calling the Red Hulk Thunderbolts the Suicide squad version of the team is accurate. If I remember correctly that version of the team was mostly just heroes that were willing to kill (Deadpool, Punisher, Agent Venom, etc.). For the Suicide Squad Thunderbolts I would parallel Luke Cage’s Thunderbolts from right after Dark reign ended since that was based around using villains who were still villains for government sanctioned missions while having a device that could take the villain out if they got out of line (granted it was a non-lethal shock collar and not a head bomb, but the same spirit)

  • @vampiric13

    I love the series, and find it really interesting to get this condensed backstory of these characters, but I do have to chime in and say, "Baron" is not "Lord for Germans." A Lord/Lady is a granted title, usually by a monarch, but are mostly honorific, like a Knighthood with Sir/Dame. Whereas Barons/Baronesses, Dukes/Duchesses and Counts/Countesses are Landed Titles, for a Barony, a Duchy, or a County.

    Good video, but a few points to add/note (Helmut Zemo os one of my favorite Marvel comics villains):
    - The EMH version was Heinrich Zemo; in his flashback, he had his classic design but when the Adhesive X spilled on him, it fused his entire costume to his body, with it shrinking & clinging so much that it became Helmut’s design. Helmut never appears in EMH, seemingly not existing.
    - The original Citizen V was killed by Heinrich Zemo.
    - While largely different, MCU Zemo is a more faithful adaptation than you’d think because…
    - Comics Helmut has been a well-intentioned extremist/honourable (in his view anyway) villain for a long time now. Helmut has never been a generic villain, his narcissistic personality has always been matched by an inner inferiority complex due to a childhood if abuse under his Nazi father. As the years went on, Zemo went through stark character growth, confronting his childhood & his father’s hateful ideology - fully rejecting prejudice & any form of superiority dogma and recognizing that his father was an awful man who deserved death, forsaking his revenge crusade against Cap. He’s remained a villain due to his extreme methods (and who’s to say his world would be better) through it all but his motivations are a legit desire to guard & better all people, end corruption & improve the world.

  • @DmanDmythDlegend
    @DmanDmythDlegend 5 месяцев назад +1

    I actually got a marvel masterworks volume as a kid that had the first ten issues of the avengers and Zemo was the most prominent villain in those issues, I think appearing 4 times total. He was also a pretty big villain in Earth’s mightiest heroes. I won’t act like I’m one of the biggest comic fans, but Zemo is definitely in my top 10 marvel villains.

    Ironically, the Avengers cartoon that got Nando hooked on the character wasn't the main Helmut Zemo, it was just Henrich wearing his son's costume most of the time. Helmut was never mentioned in that universe.

    Even though the MCU version is more interesting antagonist, I do like the personal aspect of Cap and Hemult's rivalry in the comics, with Zemo's father being the one who killed Bucky and now Hemult wants revenge against Cap for the death of his father, creating this "circle" in their dynamic.
    The fact that Zemo is the son of nazi scientist also shows the importance of Captain America in the modern day, bc, while most of his enemies from the war may be gone (with few exceptions like Red Skull), their ideals were passed to a new generation of villains, hence why the world needs a hero like Cap, to give people a better exemple to look up to and oppose those like Hemult.

    I wouldn't call Red Hulks team the Suicide Squad version, I think thay belongs to the Civil War era where they were led by Norman Osborn and were mostly imprisoned criminals like Bullseye and Swordsman hunting down anti registration superheroes. Ross' Thunderbolts were mostly just antiheroes.

    Honestly as a die hard marvel fan zemo is one of my favs too (hopefully they give us a citizen V variant or smth), his card so far looks good, but man i wish cap (my fav personally) would've get a great rework or smth 😩.
    Just asking tho, u planning to get red hulky? 🤔 (I'll take a risk and try out those 2 keys on him lol)

  • @LeAndre_McCoy
    @LeAndre_McCoy 5 месяцев назад +4

    I love how it's the inverse of Captain America, but provides similar value.
    Cap is a 3 cost 3 power with the ability to add 1 power to each of your cards on Location. So it becomes a 3 cost 7 power card.
    Baron Zemo is a 3 cost 5 power card that takes your opponent's lowest cost card, which will likely be a 1 or 2 cost 2 power disruption card like Black Widow, Scorpion, or Iceman. Which effectively makes it a 3 cost 7 power card

    • @harleyjo4875
      @harleyjo4875 5 месяцев назад +1

      Cap doesn’t add +1 to himself, so he’s 3 6 with your example.
      Zemo can benefit a lot more than those cards you mentioned if you wait a turn or two or your opponent has specific decks, let’s list a few:
      Sunspot, HE Abomination, Mockingbird, negative decks with cards like Zola or Knull, or negative decks with things like Ironman to take it away from Invisible Woman/Hela/Tribunal decks.
      Sure, it’s niche, but I see all of those cards daily, and it’s not just because I play them. Anyway, thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.
