#Marvel #Comics #PowerPack
Hey, heroes! I'm streaming on Twitch again this weekend! On Saturday I'm continuing my very first playthrough of Final Fantasy II, then on Sunday, it's Lego Marvel Avengers!

Power Pack was considered as the younger cousin series to the Fantastic Four.
And? I don’t care. They’re still awesome.
Teen Titans for pre-teens. Not bad at all.
Never thought we'd see children under the age of 12 as Superheroes and that too interacting with other Superheroes
Really cool 😎
Here in Brazil they were named "Quarteto Futuro", that means "Future Four"
Cool to see a video on the history of Power Pack, one of the most underrated teams in Marvel.
Agreed!
I only recently started reading their stuff, and I honestly have no idea why the Power Pack is so obscure. They do eserve more recognition from what I've seen.
The power pack was my first physical comic book. I forgot which issue but it was the power pack stopping mystique at a convention with I believe the help of beast. Sadly they’re often used as cheap shock value nowadays when I see them mentioned or incorporated in the wider marvel universe such as in deadpool kills the marvel universe to show how “dark” and edgy the story is by offing some kids.
That must was dreadpool
@@johnlawful2272 It was both versions of dreadpool, they love offing these poor kids lmao. The original and the dreadpool in the modern marvel universe where he also butchered devil dinosaur and moon girl with some other young heroes at a playground no less.
Yes, I grew up and got into comics through this series! 🎉❤
I really liked the power pack they are really fun characters and a fun team in my opinion.
'THIS CHANNEL IS EXCELSIOR' 👍 ..
💯📠
Power Pack was one of my favorite books and got me into comics back in the 80s. And now, as an adult, this team got me into collecting omnibus.
Thank you! I loved The Power Pack back in the day. Disney could easily turn it into a family level series.
Now that would actually work. Keep it for kids.
@@rhameseshamilton8045agreed, one of the few teams that perfectly fit with the modern disney marvel pg themes.
Plus shows revolving around a group of misfit kids taking on inconceivable threats do well like stranger things, wednesday, etc its the era of young adult coming of age stories. Disney missed the mark bad
Me and my cousin are making our own superhero book with our own character as well 😁
If you have any questions let me, OK?
Keep it up.
I loved reading POWER PACK as a young teen, especially their encounters with the other superheroes of the MARVEL Universe.
I was waiting for you to post a video essay on POWER PACK. Thanks for that. Keep up the great work. Can't wait for the next video.
I didn't realize how much history the future foundation kids all had together, its neat they brought Alex back together with Leech, Dragon Man and Franklin.
I like Power Pack and they should be in the MCU one day. 😀👍
I'm surprised that they weren't. There's loads of potential for them, especially in animation. I remember years ago they had a live action show or special but it only aired in Canada.
I often wondered what ever happened to them as I use to read the comics when they first came out. But I grew up and life got in the way. There are a lot of comics from back in the sixties and seventies that I lost track of over time. I'm glad you guys are here to catch me up. ❤
I've always wanted to learn more about this team! Thanks for posting the video!
Power Pack was the SHIT back in the days!😎👊☺
Marvel's youngest superhero team...I enjoyed their team-ups with the X-Men, the Avengers, Cloak and Dagger, and the world-famous Fantastic Four respectively. I like their stories in the main Marvel Universe (Earth-616), but I also like them in Earth-5631, the All-Ages Universe.
When I was in Elementary School there was some hardcover compilations of the Power Pack. They were my first exposure to the characters and dumb baby me thought they were made for those hardcover books.
The Power Pack would make a nice Disney/Marvel series.
Nice
Yay! My request was finally picked :D
I won’t skip the ads and will watch multiple times as thanks
Power Pack was the book that got me into comics. The original Louise Simonson run is still among my favourite comics of all time. I wish Marvel could find some way to reset the timeline , bring Louise Simonson back and release more adventures with the Power kids.
I loved Power Pack as a kid. I had most of the series. What a nice walk down memory lane. Thank you
I alway liked _POWER PACK_ . Even as I grew up, I still would pick up books they were in. My comic buddies always laughed about it, but it was just too fun of a read for me to care. So, I went out of my way to tell them about every issue! lol!
I hope one day they come to the MCU. No changes, I looooove these kids
I absolutely love your videos this quickly became 1 of my top 3 channels even taking over rob from comics explainedi. His place keep up the good work 👍
The very under-appreciated Power Pack!!! Great video!
Yes! Thank you for this. I've been waiting for this one for a while.
Never read an issue, fun to see a series on a group Ik nothing about, other than Franklin Richards.
Be great for Marvel or Disney to make a movie
Why? We know it'll SUCK!😒😂😣
Doesn't the MCU have enough snark already?
I used to collect Power Pack.
In the movie adaptation, the rainbow girl is a speedster. Katie also can project energy orbs. I can't remember if the boys' powers had some alteration.
Hope to see an MCU movie version of Power Pack.
Thankyou to the responsible patreons and everyone else on here for giving us this comprehensive ish story Of The Power Pack.
This would make a great Disney flick. They could use something to capitalize on the momentum of D/W and going outside the box in this manner would be well-received and boy, isn't the source material right up Disney's alley? I know it won't happen, but what the hell? I'd like to see Ralph Hinkley in the MCU, and that's not likely either.
Power Pack was then what Ms. Marvel is now: they kept pushing these characters but nobody cared. They did crossovers with the X-Men and Franklin Richards ran with them and had them switched up powers but they never took off
I remember seeing these kids advertised all over comics that I bought (non-superhero Marvel comics).
It was a different time then. Louise Simonson had pull at Marvel seeing as her hubby was writing Thor and June Brigman who was also one of the creatives who illustrated the Brenda Starr comic strip.
Power Pack , I was a aware of them but knew nothing about them since they didn't crossover to the traditional comics . I have the feeling Marvel was trying to build a new group of Superheroes to split from The Establishment but couldn't because of funds or not everyone was on board . Everything I know of this group is because of you, thanks.
I’ve been a power pack fan since I started reading comics. They wete always so cheap that I could buy them even when I was a little kid without money. I never really knew what was going on because I just bought which ones had a cool cover.
I appreciate that you were able to say "Snarkwar" multiple times without cracking up.
Can you do history of the Living_Brain, the Elementals, Cyclone, Hydro Man, Molten Man, Puck, Sandman, Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Crossfire, Living Laser, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Are you going to do history of Ironheart, M'Baku, Namora, Attuma and Shuri as the Black Panther since they played a major role in the Black Panther Wakanda Forever movie?
Can you do history of Ironheart, Amatsu-Mikaboshi, Arno_Stark Iron Man, Squirrel_Girl, Constrictor, Deathlok, Amadeus_Cho, the Griever, Pepper Potts AKA Rescue and the Agents of Atlas along with Crescent, Morgan_Le_Fey, White Fox and Luna Snow?
Are you going to do history of lesser known characters like Rom_the_Spaceknight, Stingray, Ultimo, Inferno, Zora_Vukovic Victorious, Flerken, Blacklash, Deathlok, Elematrix, Vertigo, Masked Raider, Red_Wolf, Tarantula, Forge, Bishop, Titanium_Man, Crimson Dynamo, Dreadknight, Deathcry, Kobik AKA the Cosmic Cube, Blizzard, Quasar, Starbrand, Nightmask, Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Starhawk, Fixer, Whirlwind, Chemistro, Whiplash, the Controller, Madam_Masque, Count_Nefaria, Ava Ayala the White Tiger, Crossfire, Living Laser, Century, Lore and Technovore?
Suprised they dont have a tv show for young kids and toddlers. Like super hero squads but more simple, less serious and made more educational.
Can you do history of the Elementals(Hellfire, Magnum, Hydron and Zephyr), Bastion, Master Mold, Nimrod, Inferno, Zora_Vukovic Victorious, Night Nurse, Lady-Lotus, Moondragon and Phyla_Vell along with the Supreme Intelligence, Puppet_Master, Diablo, Mole_Man and Angel Salvador/Tempest along with Exodus and Ex-Nhilo?
My Favs Thank You for ignoring the all ages series
Well, the 2005 miniseries and its follow-ups are not the main Earth-616 version, which this video covers.
Thank you 😊
The original book went off a cliff after Louise Simonson, Carl Potts, and Jim Shooter left. Some of the Jon Bogdanove stuff was good. But, ugh, don't get me started on Michael Higgins run. Who told that guy he could write?
Can you do history of Master Pandemonium, Sleepwalker, D'Spayre, Lilith, Chthon, Mephisto, Black heart, Dormammu, Doyle Dormammu, Clea, Nightmare and Pkzkrfmknna along with Crystal, Magma and Vance_Astrovik AKA Justice?
Funny enough, I discovered The Power Pack well before I discovered The Avengers. It was a crossover comic with Spider-Man, and Venom (or the Symbiote) as the antagonist.
Since he gets mentioned so much has there been a history of Henry Peter Gyrich, Val Cooper, or thr Commission on Superhuman Activities?
Dr James got some legs on him 😂
So when are you going to do history of Zora_Vukovic Victorious since you did the history of Dr_Doom?
Who could believe that Marvel comics has a team of preteen siblings with alien powers with a spaceship in the form of the Power Pack?
Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?
love how Numis was legit based off Whoppi Goldberg at that time was cool to see tbh.
That’s crazy I never heard of them and the first time I saw her illustration the 1st person I thought of was Whoopi. Hope marvel can give us at least a one shot of this
I remember reading an article about why Numis looks like Whoopi and the Artist or editor said as it was based off her.@@maikosaikomusic
Which all Mutants like Franklin Richards do you think is compatible and can work with the Power Pack? Can you do history of Franklin Richards?
Also to note they teamed with Deadpool when he (very) briefly wore the Venom symbiote and Obnoxio the Clown against some Snarks at a birthday party lol
What type of ship was Smartship Friday compared to the other A.I and ships used by other heroes and what type of relationship does it have with the Power Pack kkids?
So fun and weird, I love that.
I knew about power pack but never really picked it up. I did like that powerhouse was a member of the new warriors.
This is one of the things that I would love to see as a series on Disney+, but I don't see how it could be done well enough to not be terrible.
Now you _know_ they really can't stop themselves from changing most things about the whole concept of Power Pack, from the races to the sexualities of most if not all of the cast from the parents to the kids themselves. _Especially_ considering what Disney/Marvel has been doing lately and what they're rumored plans for Fantastic Four, X-Men and other upcoming films and shows.
The Runaways show on Hulu had similar potential.
It could be a good kids show where MCU characters pop in to help with random things and teach a lesson or something
Or a really good animated show
Like Ducktales but Superheroes especially if they have them operate out of the Baxter Building
Which one of the siblings of the Power Pack do you think is the best with the swapped powers?
Who do you think is the DC version of Marvel's Power Pack? Are they similar to the Young Avengers and Fantastic Four?
You should do a video on annihilus and the negative zone
I wonder if Hindsight lad looks back and goes “You know maybe i should have given myself a better name.”
He did change it to just “Hindsight”, so I guess he did.
@@AgentNevets LOL Idk why i find this funny xD. I love these videos
What do you think is the best thing about the Power Pack, Kymellians and the Snarks? Which one of them do you think is the best and which one of their powers and abilities do you think is the best?
Is the origin of the Power Pack similar to Nova Richard Rider since those kids got their powers from a dying alien?
I hope they made power pack movie
How many reptellian alien races are there
I wished Power Pack made a guest appearance on the Web Warrirors cartoon.
cabn you do an episode about clandestine
Snark snark... Thundercats.
dunno what's worse, the "art" or the story
Some of the art was "questionable"😅
Silence
All of the Power siblings are aging, but in the most recent Power Pack series, Katie is still acting like a six year old. Alex is eighteen, Julie is seventeen, Jack's getting close to starting high school, so Katie should be almost 10-12.
People don't age in Comics! The same thing goes for Batman, Spider-Man, Superman etc.,
It's almost like a law😅
Adorable. Perfect. Babies.
I want to buy them all ice cream.
I always prefer the Power Pack as they originally appeared as kids 12 to 5 years old. Having them age took away the magic that their earlier adventures had. The out of continuity all ages mini-series from the early 2000s manage to recapture the feeling of those early Power Pack stories.
I'm still not giving up hope for a video on RED NORVILLE, the red headed Thor stand in. So I'm going to ask again for a video on RED NORVILLE .
As always, MAKE MINE THE MERRY MARVELITE!!!!
Ahhhh Red Norville I only remember him from PAD’s time on The Incredible Hulk
“Theyre not mutants, they have Whitey power” 😅
How many drugs did the writers of the story do?
The answer is yes 😂
1841 - is that me or does Numinous look A LOT like Whoopi Goldberg
She does, intentionally so. Though this days, she doesn't anymore.
@@foldabotZ that Marvel character is still around?
@@aaronwilder2775 Yeah, she last appeared in the Marvel's Voices Infinity Comics #48. She doesn't look like Whoopi anymore but the vibe is still there.
@@foldabotZ looked up the series, I've never heard of it but damn that is recent
@@aaronwilder2775 Her appearances are sporadic, her prior one being in the 2015 Groot series.
Make Mine Marvel. Not di$ney
😕😑
Listening to this made the power pack 100% more lame than i thought they were
Such a weird time 😅
Why you even here
in other words, they turned julie suddenly homosexual, when she hadn't displayed tendencies before. Ish!
No
That's the truth. She never displayed lesbian tendencies before VERY recently when she was aged. @@snoopy4749
No that’s ridiculous
Every time I saw a Power Pack comic I dismissed it. Now that I've seen this video I kind of regret it 😅
