Forget-Me-Not's powers remind me of this saying from God in Futurama: "When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all"
Bender: You know, I was god once..
God: Yes, I saw, you were doing quite well until everyone died.
@@theheadoneHow did they advance to nukes so fast! 😅
He's saved the X-Men many times. He could single handedly stop Orchis by walking directly into it and shutting it all down. He's OP because Sentinels probably can't detect him.
@@deviousj5868they would know because he’s a mutant. If not for that one specific fact then definitely a cake walk
@@theheadone yeah that usually how it goes.
An ability so powerful it affects the real world. Cuz i always forget this guy
Who?
Those disgusting mutants are the reason I have short-term memory lost
LOL!!!
He's Omega level spanning into our universe lol
What are you talking about 😮
I’d _love_ if Marvel just had this dude in the background of random X-Men panels with no explanation or recognition.
Lol or in the movie credits, they have one one side "ForgetMeNot" and then "John Smith" on the actor's name on every movie.
They did. ;)
Lmao
They do it all the time. Too bad we always forget
That's Gravity Falls level of planning.
I now reminded you of Gravity Falls and why it was amazing. Read it and weep, you won't get a show like that again.
This man is literally wearing the plot armor for the sake of the entire X-Men.
He isn’t wearing plot armor. He IS their plot armor.
Like He said, every dumb little convenient thing that happens in the X-Men, it was just Him. Just forget-me-not doing his part, even if We don’t see it, it’s just because the artist and editor forgot to add him.
I'm curious if they ever explain how long he's been helping. And did he happen to be around to help with other, non-mutant related events.
I understand what you are saying, but you don't know what "literally" means.
@@shockthetoast if so we probably forgot
@@princeofcupspoc9073 by definition literally can be used to mean the opposite of literal as a form of expression, websters even notes the word has been used this way by many profound authors dating back from the 18th century till now.
Websters dictionary:
2: in effect : VIRTUALLY -used in an exaggerated way to emphasize a statement or description that is not literally true or possible
Man Forget-Me-Not is legit an underrated dude even if he's played up mostly as a joke.
I'm sure a writer will eventually pick up on the untapped potential for his abilities just like they did with Kitty Pryde. Xabi could make for an extremely effective covert ops specialist if they extended his powers to have general antimemetic properties such as it being impossible for any record to be made of his extistence. He could walk past CCTV cameras or hack into computers with it being impossible for his presense to be stored in the device's storage memory.
Who?
@@KryyssTV Yeah. When they brought him back in X-Force they did really great with him. It all depends on the writer
Seriously.
Nah, he's a very forgetable character.
the greatest thing about his guys is that he might legitimately be on every team and no one would know it.
Except machines and the most powerful psyckers
@@SeraphimRoad - Technology forgets him as well. It's why he survives at the end of the comic.
@@SeraphimRoad i mean in the story he told he literally said that even the anti-mutant machines and supersentinels failed to detect him, and only because professor x put a one hour alarm in his own mind is he able to know of his existence, thats how strong his amnesia inducing effect is
There’s another story about him. It goes into more detail where it shows panels of past adventures of the X-men and he was there all along. It’s like the veil was lifted and the reader could now see him. It showed side by side the original 80s-90s image and the updated image of him being there.
@@RUclipsbinger Oh that is DOPE.
I imagine Nimrod has a memory fold called Forget-Me-Not and when opened it's empty. This endlessly annoys Nimrod because why have an useless empty memory folder.
And every single time he encounters Forget-me-not he instantly realizes this guy is super dangerous and makes a special, high-priority folder on him, then later gets annoyed again when he sees a special super-high-priority folder with nothing in it.😂
@@andrewsuryali8540 Upon spotting Forget-Me-Not Nimrod yells out "NO! not this time mutant, I'll end you here and now!" but before Nimrod can vaporize him , Forget-Me-Not smiles then drops down a blanket in front of him (like the disappearing trick done with pets and kids). Nimrod is suddenly puzzled as to what he's currently doing and notices his Forget-Me-Not fold has been updated... BUT still has nothing in it.
@@unknownvalor9755Okay, and now my brain hurts and I'm confused, but I don't know why.

You should really do a story on that mutant Forget-Me-Not. He was pretty cool.
Who is that?
@@halkeye20who is who?
@@tomf4122 what are u talking about?
Stop talking about your oc's
Huh?
Wow, if Forgetmenot had his own series, I would read it. He's great.
no, seriously, i'm with you on this.
I would too, but probably forget about what I read immediately after putting the book down.
You'd forget it after reading it.
Even if it's about all of those random times that he's mentioned in the past.
maybe you already have?
Frankly, ForgetMeNot is one of the best ideas in Marvel Comics. Ever. His existence and powers are a literal Deus Ex Machina and can explain away even the most vapid of storytelling shortcuts, because he IS one.
Yeah, it's been established that he's saved the X-Men many times. I believe that not even a sentinel can detect him since they use optics. That means he can shut down ORCHIS.
But what about security cameras? Pictures? Computer records? What about robots like the Phalanx or even Cerebro that are basically machines, wouldn't it be able to remember ForgetmeNot? Seems like this mutant is more of a gimmick IMO. This mutant power wouldn't account for records.
@@lordpuller2226 - All those things forget about him as well. He's basically the Schrödinger's cat of X-Men in that if your not actively observing him that you'll forget about his existence. This even applies to technology which is why he eventually gets out of the security field since the security system forgets about him.
@@thesacredlobo That makes no sense. Also makes no sense as a mutant power if you think for two seconds. Even thematically the character is gimmicky. Quite convenient from a writing point of view, you know, selectively counting robots and handwritten notes as forms of consciousness. Since we're counting inanimate objects as having consciousness why doesn't his clothes disappear? Or his existence on planet Earth? How could he keep food in his stomach if technically the food can forget that it was chewed and swallowed? So theft by this guy is okay since even if he steals something the universe will rewrite the property as having never been taken in the first place to protect evidence of him from ever existing?
What this makes Forgetmenot is an imaginary character who doesn't really exist.
@@lordpuller2226 - "That makes no sense."
A lot of stuff in fiction doesn't make sense. There's a reason why people talk about plot holes in movies and books.
"Also makes no sense as a mutant power if you think for two seconds."
Considering were talking about a franchise with people that can alter the very fabric of reality. A character having a passive ability that erases his existence from people's memories as well as cameras and other forms of technology seems rather tame.
"Even thematically the character is gimmicky."
I don't remember saying he's powers weren't gimmicky.
"Quite convenient from a writing point of view, you know, selectively counting robots and handwritten notes as forms of consciousness."
Isn't that the case for most stories? The hero or someone in his party almost always seems to have a pretty convenient tool or spell on hand when it's needed.
Sort of like how the Golden Trio learn the levitation spell the same day a mountain troll is let into Hogwarts and use said spell to defeat it.
"Since we're counting inanimate objects as having consciousness why doesn't his clothes disappear?"
Probably for the same reason Chopper doesn't destroy his clothes when he uses monster point.
"So theft by this guy is okay since even if he steals something the universe will rewrite the property as having never been taken in the first place to protect evidence of him from ever existing?"
Oddly enough stealing supplies on a regular basis is how a powerful psychic realized there was someone sneaking around in their base stealing stuff. So while security cameras and whatnot may forget about him in some weird metaphorical way. The stuff he steals is still remembered and can be used to infer his existence.
"What this makes Forgetmenot is an imaginary character who doesn't really exist."
That applies to almost all characters that appear in super hero comics.
So if Forget Me Not died, there would be no one to remember him and revive him using the Five.
Maybe professor x but that's a gamble
But what if dying causes his power to "deactivate" and people start to remember him?
@@chrisx4ever300 I likes that. It’s like a cruel joke, everyone will remember him but he won’t know that.
He died on Krakoa in "Legion of X #10"
He sacrificed himself to kill Warlock on his own request, saving Krakoa from Nimrod. However, his teammates forgot his sacrifice, and it's not clear whether he was added to the Resurrection Queue afterwards
I can’t help but feel as though he could have left notes with his name written for the X-Men to see.
Its sad that even after he sacrificed himself saving Krakoa from Nimrod his powers were still active and his teammates forgot his him.
It's not clear whether he was added to the Resurrection Queue afterwards.
I think Charles Xavier put a suggestion to remember him in his head. Not sure if that carried over.
@@deviousj5868 iirc, Sins of Sinister and then the Hellfire Gala massacre happened shortly after so even if Xavier remembers him somehow, there's no way to bring him back currently.
@@ffaristocratBut the multiverse might forget about that...
@@Furzkampfbomber but death might forget him
@@erdenesaikhanamgalanhyiag8351Ha, _that_ would be a cool twist! And it raises the question at least for me - could/would whatever constitutes as God in the Marvel universe forget about him?
This gives me Booster Gold vibes. I love the idea of there being someone in the background that's been helping for years but no one knows and it's not even their fault.
And that’s why they give him a whole episode in JLU
@@CD_DooooDAlt Yeah I remember that! That was my first time seeing him and I thought he looked cool.
Then I looked him up and realized he was awesome and kinda tragic. I wish he could get a movie, but I wouldn't want the DCU to ruin him.
He's getting a movie soon actually. He was also in Legends of Tomorrow.@@captanblue
@@sacrificiallamb4568 Oh? I need to check out Legends of Tomorrow
He will continue to be one of my favorite Xmen since I originally read the story.
I love that he has enough credit to be on X-force strike team.
Sage and Bishop built something to help the members of the team remember him while on mission, but even then when it gets a little damage they start getting hazy going like "Oh you were here the whole time?" Juggernaut gets slapped around during an excursion and can only vaguely recall Forget-Me-Not being a part of it.
Wait who's your favorite X-men member ?
@@skillagerthevillagermain I think he said something about juggernaut, idk man.
@@BradleyYaktin the funniest part is that i genuinely forgot about this comment and i didn't know what you were talking about at first
That ending proves that he can have a lasting impact on people even if they forget him. That's really cool. I was wondering what the point of him even inspiring her was if she was just going to forget, but it looks like it work none the less.
I can't believe how well written his character is. He's as much of a hero as any other xmen but works like a shadow and guardian angel. What a powerful message too. I hope Forget-me-not gets his own series. I'd love to see the little things he does to help people and how he's influenced peoples' lives.
I've always loved this guy's powers but it's so hard to write stories with him. He's either op or useless.
And when he is successfully written, it's hella banger
Forget Me Not needs a deathbattle vs SCP Joe Schmo
"bad guys win"
Finally. Now to use this- Where's the reconstruction device?!
"Guess I'll just push this and, everythings back"
Hey! Who pushed the button. I swear everyone's here and someone pushed it. But where are they?!
He is good as a villain this is a villain super powers
I can’t believe you're finally talking about Forgetmenot! What an unexpected treat, today!
His power is op if you dont mind not having attention 😂
He’s talked about him for a long time I think he posted him years ago and repost stuff from time to time

"The way the world sees you isn't nearly as important as the way you see it."
That's gotta be the best ever quote I've ever heard in such a long time. Very simple but meaningful. I will always remember this, thank you very much Mr Forget-Me-Not.
New Rockstars recently had an episode where one of the panelists had to have Forget Me Not as part of their X-Team and they made him their Tactician I believe, it was a pretty fun episode.
So, that would make them effectively have a team with no concrete plans but somehow has them working together out of nowhere.
So he's essentially The Silence from Dr Who? Cool. Love to see more stories around this concept.
You might want to check the Anti-memes from the SCP universe, they are pieces of information that are imposible to retein for one reason or another.
There's a book of short stories about them i think it was call "There is no Anti-memetics Division"
I read that book and enjoyed it a few summers ago. The big, meta-plot lost a lot of narrative cohesion in the last third, but the opening chapters introducing the concept and setting were amazing.@@alejoclosa7705

The bit about deus ex machinas occurring because of this guy working behind the scenes reminds me of a web novel named Pact.
The protagonist has some moments like this in the beginning of the story, up until he fights a demon that causes everyone to forget it's victims ever existed. From that moment onward, he NEVER has another deus ex machina moment.
It turns out that he actually had friends helping him, but they are all dead and forgotten now after getting swallowed by the demon. And even YOU, the reader, aren't protected from this effect.
I do love my stranger 8+ worm powers
What the fuck. I thought it was just some goblins that got erased. God that's awesome meta-story-wise though. Is that ever acknowledged at all in universe, or is it just a reader observation? Currently at 6.6 right now
You bring up Pact but don't Bring Aisha "Imp" Laborn? She has the same powers as Forgetmenot except she can turn them off sometimes.
Where can I read it?
@@InformerMaz just google pact webnovel. Its free on the internet. Its by a person called JC McCrae also known as Wildbow
“Wait until people can notice you, and simply don’t care”
*Mic drop
That’s not why he decided not to though. He just remembered he doesn’t help people for recognition.
You can't help but truly feel for the guy. He just wants that human connection everyone deserves to have but is doomed to always be forgotten. :(
Ahaha saaaaaaameeee😎
Once I heard about this guy, feels like forever ago, i always thought if used right he would be an awesome character or an even an amazing villain if he ever turned. Bc he can basically do anything and no one notices or remembers. I always thought he'd eventually snap and do something but he seems like a solid good person. He could help the mutants against Orchis and everything else currently.
“Whatever we were talking about, it was probably cool.”
Perfect.
~_~
Glad you covered this.. He should be used more often in the comics.. But the creators forget about him.. 😮😮
He is in every issue...
Bro, I going to need you to continue making heartfelt videos like this. This is mutant I would have never though about had you not put him on the map. Thank you (que the song forget me not)
I loved this book,I bought it when it came out. It's a sad power, to think he's been around in stories that we know but he's always forgotten. The kind of old school stories I loved as a kid
It sounds like a protagonist version of the False Hydra from DnD. A creature which removes itself and any effects it's had from the minds and memories of people surrounding it. It can break in through a window, snatch up a resident infront of their family, and said family will be left wondering why there's an unusued bed in the house.
There's a chapter book with him (or at least someone with the same power) as the protagonist. He's unable to be noticed, but Wolverine actually helps him out because he can sense him with sound and smell.
Eventually his drawings get noticed by others enough for him to actually begin getting friends at the school.
Also, there's a pretty gory fight between Wolverine and Sabertooth.
Ever since I read FMN's entry in the old Marvel heroes database they used to keep online, he's been one of my favorite underrated characters, just like Speedball. I remember thinking "What a great pow-... oh... snap." because it only took a few seconds for it to sink in. 😥
Marvel is savage for making a X-Man about the readers.
Absolutely brilliant how you ended the video ma dude! “What were we watching again?!!” Lol, awesome!!
3:04 "Gambit was always chasing after her tryna clap the cheeks" 💀
He is now my favorite character in marvel hands down, he is such a dilemma himself but he makes it work, I wanna see more from him this is the most interested I’ve been in a character you’ve explained in a while🙏🏾
How awesome would it be if forget-me-not is featured in Deadpool 3 but we didn’t notice him because he was an extra in the previous films all along. Lol
He is featured in every film, he just isn't in the movie credits
This would make such a great sub-story in one of the future X-men movies... Awesomely written.
Guy needs a brain slug companion, the slug would never forget him and people would never forget the slug.
Can't they just write it down in permanent ink or something?
Dude is like if the SCP Joe Schmo but with a different predicament and not an psychopath due to the lack of consequences to his actions
I was thinking the same thing. Although Joe Schmoe probably has a worse version of this since people only see him as average at everything no matter what. Joe never even gets people to interact meaningfully with him.
This guy could probably get workarounds to his power.
"When does a man truly die.... when hes forgotten" ,Dr. Hiriluk
Charles Xavier setting an hourly reminder to remember Forget Me Not is quite endearing. Xavier always has a crazy control over reality
Why didn't he have people put down on paper his profile? Forgetmenot literally makes people forget him and bends perception of him but doesn't erase what has been put down on record. Nor does it remove the knowledge of him having existed or his actions/footprint he leaves behind. Charles shows it doesn't create a memory block or directly interferes with actual facts or records since charles got his sizes for the suit. But what stops him from creating a manuscript, a biography, a statue or a basic profile on forgetmenot? Basic proof he exists without direct visual imaging should sidestep the cognito inhibiting, and would be a nice in your face calling card when he wishes to be remembered.
People would just forget that.
People would forget where they put notes about him
I love it! Thank you... And I have to say... It's been a long time since I heard a short story where I truly feel compelled to care for a character! Honestly hope that's not the last we see of him...
Honestly 1 of my favorites thus far man. Alot to take away from both perspectives. Be dope to see him evolving as a character. Makes you think, in his shoes would you give it Up or keep It(The Gift & The Curse)? 💯🖖🏿
what’s this video about again?
Yeah bro that was sweet. You always bring to light comics and stories that I would have never have known about. Thank you Rob.
The only person that can actually see him is Deadpool..... besides Professor X
I remembered
I think i Remember Him too.
@@kingshadow8782who are we talk about again?
@@someguy6369Forget me not is it?
@@kingshadow8782 I dunno. I think we were talking about who was first to comment.
No you didn't..
i guess you can say they X'ed him out.
I am going to remember-me-not that joke
That character says it as a matter of fact...but I am not sure people caught onto it. He is a person who has always been around the xmen. BUT no one can remember him. Perhaps not always, but at some point once he joined up, the things they passed off as coincidences, or luck...that was him. He was doing his thing, making things better as he could, no one could remember he existed...he just did his job.
That is bonkers. BUT if the prof knew of him and set an alarm, why did he make no real effort to clue in at least some of the members of the xmen, at least the ones that had psychic gifts.
That would be the best/worst/best/worst mutation anyone could have. very mixed emotions about it. BUT just wow.
I just love these little side members of the X Men. Xavier really did recruit some of the nastiest monsters and God-like beings. I would even say ForgetMeNot is more of a trickster than Loki.
If you’re watching this for the first time you can’t be sure you haven’t already heard of this guy…
You forgot the fact that the wall ends up forgetting Mr forget me not is there
I love Forgetmenot so much as a character and it's great how rarely he shows up in the comics. I think this adds to his character and it gives him a real world effect. To be honest, as much as I love the character, I only care about him when someone else brings him up. He's really meta.
Sadly his powers are so great that the artists forget to draw him.
My question is: WTF has he been during the fight against Orchis and the upcoming one against Enigma? Can Enigma "see" him given it's place outside of space and time?
He would but probably forget
@@madara4447 That makes him a great ace card for anyone that can gear him up to go up against a dominion, lol. Maybe Wyn.
I heard of forget-me-not on some other video a long time ago. Tried to search for him but couldn't find him, after a few tries over years I started wondering if I had just imagined it. Thank you 😂
Forget-Me-Not's power is just being a man under 5'6"
He actually recently died in Legion of X. He sacrificed himself and died but no one remembered.
I went here thinking "haha time to know who's this silly mutant" to "dang, never thought I'd be invested this much"
bro is the plot armor
I have a very similar character in my dnd campaign, inspired by There Is No Antimemetics Division. He became immortal, because Death itself couldnt remember him. In that world gods' powers come from their thrones, and in the great battle where they all fought for theirs he just went and took one and nobody noticed. That was until my campaign's bbeg, who has free reign over the realm of dreams, noticed him. Because of how weird memories are in dreams he managed to remember him, which lead to the guy joining the bbeg and just giving his throne over to him since it is the first time in centuries he had any connection to another person
Good video on whoever you talked about Rob. He had some cool moments and whatever that person did was definitely note-worthy and impactful, but the problem is that I don't remember who he is and what his mutant power is. Probably something broken and OP that Marvel doesn't want to capitalize on, but that's just my opinion on that matter.........
😂😂
They should make a mutant whose only power is being able to remember this guy.
This IS a pretty sad story. I like it, cause it show you Something you dont sée very often: someone who don't liké to have powers. X m'en has Always bé about acceptation. But what about ''dizgusting powers'', or powers that make you look so différent? Its litteraly an X-Men Ben Grimm and i loved it
bro just made a video of a blank svreen and expected people to understand 💀
wait...did I just watch an empty video?
This is amazing. I love this character and the entire message of this comic. The fact that he wanted to stay the way he was and was eventually satisfied with the way his life would be is kind of amazing.
Whoever created this character is a genius.
Love the subtle Skyrim reference
tht was a noiiice touch at the end there mate!
That's brilliant, a character that explains all the bits of luck and plot armor for the heroes, where it turns out he's been the one making lucky things happen, but no one notices and doesn't remember
This dude is just the silence from Dr who😂
You got me through a tough time as a teenager. Thanks bro youre my favorite youtuber
You can take this power to INSANE levels of scaling if they really wanted. Like he can legit make the world forget mutants ever existed and they could live in peace.
While true, it also doesn't affect anything that doesn't rely on memory or complex perception to function. Natural disasters, simple perceptive beings that does not rely on persistence of memory, and etc would still be able to affect him.
Really great story, hard to tell outside of the medium but perfectly contained. Love it, thanks for talking about it
Love ForgetMeNot.
His new name. "What's that smell" Seeing as the guards always pass by his rotting corpse but forget they saw anything and only the odor lingers.
I feel like ive wasted 16:22, idk why XD
I would love if forget-me-not was like the ultimate x-men spy .
or like immune to reality warping just because he was forgotten .
The writing potential for him is actually super high , You can make a whole comedy show out of his power --
I wonder if cosmic entities like physically have to check up on him because he's like a blind spot even for them.
Damn!! You should do the one about Reed and the Thing and seeing how long we would live given his Nornal-1-day/year.
That was a tear jerker 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
The story with Reed and the ledge jumper. That's a solid one too.
@@LateNightBreeze777 no vid it seems but found a reddit post. thanks!
@@hoboringmaster8029 You're welcome. Call up a family member you haven't spoken to in a while. Life is short. Make it count.
The barrier is eventually gonna forget about him and let him go, no? :D
If he dies nobody would be at his funeral, because they wouldn't remember who he is? If so that's sad
Nobody will remember him except Gods.
Well Charles would be at his funeral.
Oh wait...
dude wouldn't even had a funeral....just stay whereever he was dropped.
I'd honestly speculate that his powers over everyone's memories of him would vanish.
Possibly allowing everyone who ever seen him a chance to remember.
At least, that's my headcanon, so it can be a happy ending 😅😂
Looks like we all forgot he sacrificed himself to get to nimrod fairly recently, no clue if he was resurrected prior to Prof X order.
The no short term memory power is a classic. There's Koishi, SCP-055 and the whole antimemetics division, etc. I love the applications of this power.
Master level storycrafting. This is what writers should aspire to emulate. Not copy the story, not lecturing, and not trying to stick it to anyone, but make an impact through storytelling.
These characters add so much insight to marvel and just comics in general. We often see the view points of someone strong like magneto or apocalypse, and then someone like forget me nots view, it’s like viewing the world as an ant
It's really sad how, when Professor X dies, nobody at all remembers Forget Me Not, since he could always sense his mind and knew vaguely that he existed at all times.
Larry Nien came up with a similar mutant power in his Known Space 'verse. It was called "Plateau eyes" because it first showed up on the colony world of Plateau, and it only worked if the user could catch his target's glance. Then his micro-TK reached out and tweaked the guy's optic nerve, and by extension his short-term memory. Make the guy's eyes relax, the guy forgets all about our hero. But turn it around, force the guy's eyes wide open, and our hero is branded into the guy's memory.
This guy's power is the silence from Dr.who, just without the exploding people part
What a bad guy waiting to happen...
He finally becomes fed up with "Not being remembered" and snaps!
I once spent 45 minutes trying to explain the CONCEPT of Forget-Me-Not to a friend from school when I was younger. Giant waste of time...
Imagine this guy with Infinity Stones, Lanterns/Rings, and/or the Speed Force. The amount of shenanigans he could get into...
The funny thing is that with his power, there's no way he could have been officially taken in and put on any X-Men team. Which means just showed up one day and started following them around and nobody stopped him because they didn't remember him
My number one takeaway from this video: "Wow, this dude really loves comics."
I don't think he can age because the god of time forgets him
Oh yeah. Thanks for reminding me about... About... yeah nice weather we are having right?
Everyone should take a page from Forget-me-not. It's easy for people to feel like nobody cares about us or remembers you exist, but that shouldn't stop you from being a good person. Because no matter how easy to forget you are, you aren't a mutant, so if you're good enough, someone will remember you for it 😊
What were we talking about? 😂. Awesome video rob.
With my imagination. And his power. I would be unstoppable. I would be. Inevitable!
