Agreed.But sadly Marvel butchered him in BP2.

Uncle Sam definitely needs to appear in peacemaker

The first time that I had heard of the Shining Knight, Vigilante and Uncle Sam was in the pages of the All-Star Squadron that had came out in the late seventies and early eighties.

Shining Knight's comment in the JLU episode about the "creeping moral decay" really struck a chord with me back then. You can see it in comics all over the place where so called superheroes are nothing more the super human, not much heroism at all. Kingdom Come also touched on this idea and I think its worth exploring as it seems most writers want to write their characters as flawed people rather than those who make the right choices in their actions.

Shining Knight, Uncle Sam and Vigilante don’t get enough love.

Superman is probably the most unappreciated hero of the golden age.

I legit think the freedom fighters as a whole are underrated. I wish that team was more popular

I’ve been a comics fan for over a decade, and have never heard of the Laughing Mask! That’s such an intriguing character! Going to look into that now!

Yup same here dude, a curious character

Uncle Sam is hilarious awesome, the Batman The Brave and the Bold episode with him was my introduction to him earlier this year and I fell in love immediately because it's so stupidly cool

The part of Guardian made me realize, maybe that could've been a role more fitting for Nathan Fillion in Superman: Legacy; an older superhero who has been operating for some time in Metropolis.

Not sure if he counts, but I'd go for The Sandman(Wesley Dodds). Read the first issue of his recent run, twas interesting and im liking DCs thing with reviving golden age characters. I just hope they make a panel of him looking menacing while appearing in front of his gas.

This video was great.You'll should do a 7 Underrated Golden Age Superheroes from the Public Domain.

I've always liked the original Human Torch! Wish he was seen more!

The Guardian is a badass! Really dig him!

Never heard of the Laughing Mask character,problably would make a good murder/mystery type tv series,if done right. I wouldn't mind seeing a-JUSTICE-SOCIETY-film in the near future tho.

Look up the Twelve, great series

My favorite Golden age characters are mostly DC like Sandman, Crimson Avenger, Dr. Midnite. But I would love it if Marvel revived their golden age Vision character.

This underrated golden aged characters' video was great. Thank you so much for this. However, I was wondering if you would please do a video of the top 8 or 10 of the most brutal things Magneto has ever done in comics. I'm a 90's person, and I believe this would make a great video in the future, just like how you've done with Carnage and the Joker.

I want Jay Garrick, Alan Scott, the Rex Tyler version of Hourman, the Charles Mcnider version of Doctor Mid-Nite, The Metal Men, and Sugar and Spike to be in the DCU.

Vigilante Greg Sanders got a mini-series called Vigilante: Shining Lights, Prairie Justice in the 90’s by James Robinson, who also did the fantastic Starman series, a series all about golden age heroes.

Since you did history of Marvel's Black Knight, Can you do history of Marvel's Dreadknight? If you seen the recent episodes of season 7 of the Flash, can you do history of Impulse, XS, Psych, Fuerza, Steadfast, Chillblaine, Abracadabra, Rainbow Raider, Mirror Master and Top in your next video?

Your boy Laughing Mask was one of The Twelve, which was Marvel's take on what DC did with the All Star Squadron in one sense. I'd love to see you do a video on The Twelve, a twelve issue series from somewhere around 2007 or 2008. Laughing Mask was a huge part of the story, and I enjoyed that series quite a bit. Like the heroes you focused on in this video, The Twelve doesn't get enough love

Laughing Mask could totally show up in an arc of the DareDevil show.

But wouldn’t he be close to the Punisher? I mean could be cool to see laughing mask and Punisher clash or work together.

Are you going to do history of the Supreme Intelligence, Ronan the Accuser, Dar-Benn and Ael-Dan who all played a major role in the upcoming The Marvels movie?

Can you do history of Cyclone, Rhino, Sandman, Kraven the Hunter, Chameleon, Scorpion and the Human Fly along with Kurt Connors the Lizard. Also can you do the history of the Flash Villains like Turtle, Magenta, Cobalt Blue, Mirror Master and Top?

I remember having a Namor action figure when i was a young boy, i played with him in the shower and bath all the time cause obviously he's a water character. Always been a character i loved but rarely get to talk about cause most people who aren't comic fans didn't know him. After black panther tho I'm so happy he's on his way to be a household name

I want Doctor Fate to get some REAL love. Not just a side character like in Black Adam, and most comics today. But a main character, with his own tv miniseries, comic book run, etc. He's got so much potential, and the lore around him is super cool. Plus, he's an absolute powerhouse who can rival Doctor Strange in Marvel. I've always loved Fate as a character because I love magic based characters.

The original Human Torch made a small cameo appearance in captain america first avenger during the stark expo there was a display that showed the “synthetic man” but they couldn’t call him the human torch due to Fox still owning the rights

I liked reading All-Star Squadron comics when I was a kid. If anyone wants some good stories look up some old All-Star Squadron from the 70's and 80's. Really great stories and really great characters. My favorite was probably Steel or Commander Steel as he was sometimes called. His costume looked great and he was a pretty tough fighter. He was similar to Captain America. He was injured in combat and they gave him surgery replacing his bones with steel tubes, adding motors to his muscles, and giving him a tough synthetic skin. His costume was bullet proof and fireproof. That character was great. Doctor Midnight and the original Atom were also cool characters.

Uncle Sam is definitely needed nowadays. It's a shame that he's only ever been in Batman: The Brave and Bold. There's a lot of potential for The American Dream incarnate.

Are you going to do history of Jentorra, Kryler(played by Bill Murray), Multiple Man, Cassie Lang as Stature/Stinger and the city of Chronopolis in honour of the Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumainia movie?

I'd go for Sunfire definitely! So underrated!

Vigilante is one of my uncle’s favorite heroes he’s definitely underrated. I want to see more of him as well.

I feel like Laughing Mask would have fit very well in any of the Netflix Marvel shows. Maybe if the character does appear in the MCU at one point, it could be in Daredevil Born Again.

Did you know there was a Vision before the andrioid, he was an alien named Aarkus who fought with Cap in WWII

Can you do videos on Iron Monger (Obadiah Stane), Yellow Jacket 🐝 (Darren Cross), Malekith ‘The Accursed’, Ronan ‘The Accuser’, Ghost 👻, Soldier Supreme, Iron Hammer 🔨 Iron Man 👨, Ultimate Thor, Worthy Black Widow and Goliath Hawkeye!!!!

Captain Marvel should be #1 on this list. He was the highest selling character in the Golden Age. He inspired Superman, Captain America, and Thor to become who they are today. Now most people just think of him as the magic man child, second fiddle to Superman the New 52 made him.

I always thought the Black Marvel was really interesting, particularly the Spider-Man Animated Series version.

I need an episode on Phantom the ghost who walks.

Namor is unique in that you can write him as a villain, anti hero or hero

Detective Occult could use some love.

You didn't mention that Jim Hammond did appear n the first Captain America film at the expo.

So when are you going to do history of DC Despero since he is one of the biggest Justice League Villians from the Comics?

Even though he's fairly well known, I think it's totally bonkers that as long as Wildcat has existed, he's NEVER starred in his own comic series, not even a miniseries. Wildcat #1 has never been printed or sold. Has any other hero existed for this long, been in cartoons and live action and all, yet still not had their own series?

Uncle Sam's speech in CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS was great

Can you please do history of DC OMAC along with the Reach who are the aliens who created the Scarabs in honour of the release of the Blue_Beetle movie?

The laughing mask is similar to the mask IMO

I’d love a Jim Hammond Human Torch series set in the golden age. With Professor Horton as this person who’s too smart for his own good, and terrifying to the US government that he works for, the Torch would literally birth superheroes into the marvel universe. It would be one part Oppenheimer, one part Frankenstein, and one part Superman

We need more of them. But it's funny to ask that, assuming these people making the movies even read the comics......

I might be alone in this, but it looks like The Guardian might have taken inspiration from the original Blue Beetle; Dan Garrett. An ironic turn of events, since Victor S. Fox started his career in comics by ripping off Superman for his character Wonder Man, and would bite back at DC (Then known as National Publication) after he lost the lawsuit against Wonder Man by pushing for a solo title and a radio show for Blue Beetle in response to National doing so for Superman. Also, he once spat at National's office over the lawsuit (they shared the same building for a time). Plus, he also bragged he was the "King of Comics". And he apparently did so in front of Jack Kirby once. Fortunately, The Guardian has gotten some love outside of comics. Most notably in Young Justice, where both Jim Harper and Mal Duncan got their time to shine. In the comics, Mal Duncan became The Guardian during the '70s run of the Teen Titans. Before and after he became The Hornblower. An identity that would be recycled for the Teen Titans TV Show, where Mal appeared as "The Herald." I don't know much about Shining Knight, but I am a fan after seeing him take a beating from Eiling like a Champ in Justice League Unlimited "Patriot Act". And Vigilante rocks. Speaking of "Patriot Act", he wasn't kiddin' when he said he could have the folks eatin' out of the palm of his hand if he had his geetar. We didn't get to see that in Justice League Unlimited, but Vigilante lived up to his words in Batman: The Brave and The Bold.

The forgotten characters are always the cool characters. The golden age was the beginning of the superhero genre superheroes live on.

You should do more videos like this

Marvel’s original Flash- the Whizzer

Toro is always overlooked. The first time i heard of him was in The Invaders in 1975. I then found Sub-Mariner #14 from 1969, in the story where they killed him off battling the Mad Thinker. He's been overlooked in every Invaders series for more then 20 years.

Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?

One of my nerdy fantasies is an animated Captain America series set during WW2 that also features fellow Invaders members like Namor & Jim Hammond as well as retconned characters like Wolverine & T'Challa's grandfather as the then Black Panther.

All should seek out the All-Star Squadron series that used Guardian and Shining Knight quite a bit and Vigilante and Uncle Sam a number of times.

Order your copy of DC Comics: The Golden Age exclusively from The Folio Society today: bit.ly/FolioSocietyDC

How long till you do history of America-Chavez, Speed and Wiccan since these Young Avengers played a major role in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness? Can you please do history of them in honour of the release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness?

I think there’s a reason why these heroes are underrated….

Vigilante is so legit, but I can def say I know more about Jonah Hex

Laughing mask is fucking terrifying Yet I'm inspired by this character

We absolutely need a Phantom lady ongoin series with adam Hughes covers! pls DC!

Wildcat boxing type of series

Just like how Namor the Submariner and the Shining Knight made their live action debut, Do you think we will see the rest of these Superheroes playing a major role on the Big Screen or TV Shows?

Well, Namor was technically in Wakanda Forever. They changed everything about him, but he was *technically* there.

Great characters !!!

I would like more with The Spectre. Or, a new take on the original Captain Marvel. And, while we're at it, why not some Green Hornet ?

laughing mask should be in the daredevil series

Dr.Midnite and Hour man

Why did they reuse the name human torch for the fantastic four?

I’d love a vigilante action figure though but the McFarlane run doesn’t make them with guns

fun fact about Namor he was the first mainstream comic book character that showcased the ability to fly way before Superman or Shazam.

Do you think you could do a video on the 1993 Superboy series? Cause that's one of my favorite series and it introduced a ton of characters like king shark and knockout. And it was a truly fun story to read through.

OG Human Torch & Spectre

Wonderful video❤

I got all american comic issue 16 the first appearance of green lantern ( alan scott ) for $10 only at my local comic store

*The* Spectre 👻

These are the best type of videos

they used guardian in supergirl

Laughing mask vs. punisher crossover?

Uncle Sam and Jay Garret.

The Black Terror--America's Fighting Nemesis Of Crime! Imagine Batman with the strength and resilience of the Golden Age Superman, and you have The Black Terror. Together with his junior partner Kid Terror--who possesses the same powers--they wage unrelenting war against the forces of evil.

Uncle Sam animated show/movie in 2025 would be EPIC

feels great to know that someone else sees the guardian the same way I do. if they ever give him a series, steve rude should be the one to draw it. I can tell he has love for the character

Blue Beetle

I could've sworn Vision is a repurposed android body that has a connection to the Golden Age Human Torch.

My favorite is The Destroyer from Timely

I personally don’t think wildcat gets enough love

Uncle Sam could fight the Maga's.

Dwight Schrute for The Laughing Mask!! Who's with me??

Sheena The Jungle Queen Saw The Tanya Roberts movie don't remember If I saw the early 2000's TV Series It had one of the chicks from Baywatch

What would happen if we saw these Superheroes on the Big Screen or TV Shows?

Lets extend this into the modern day cause boy are'nt there plenty of those. Empowered is amazing and way too few people know about it. Also, do you know Galactus has a Daughter? Ya thats exist and has not been elaborated upon near enough.

Namor is barely a hero lol. Hes much more akin to doctor doom and is just generally antagonistic with everyone he talks to. Thats probably why. In contrast, magneto is only a dick to non mutants. He is likable if hes on your side. Even when namor teams up with people they dont love doing it lol

Ah yes my boy No Amor...nuff said

Madame Strange was a total badass. The original Wildfire was nicely done. Diana, the Partner of Boomerang was just so competent she outshone him and his sad boomerang gimmick. Liberty Belle started her career by SWIMING THE ENGLISH CHANNEL to escape Nazis...say no more. Kitten, Catmans sidekick was just a kid but she looked pretty buff and held her own when she had to, she also packed a gun sometimes. Fantomah, was just insanely powered and turned into a skull faced buff, blue form that just devastated anyone that crossed her path. The Silver Scorpion was a judo expert that could have been interesting if she would have dumped her detective boss. And last but not least, the original Black Widow. Empowered by Satan, there are few heroes more terrifying than her. Enough for now.

Shining Knight and Vigilante MUST BE in Modern Age!!!! G.O.A.T.

CAPTAIN COMET 🙌🏾🙌🏾💯

7:17 he'll get killed of bet money

Namor was very well known even before the terrible MCU appearance.
