Ep. 106. Who is The Hood in Marvel Comics?! · Vigilante Vibes Podcast

0:16
Hi guys, it's Megan from Vigilante Vibes and today I have
0:18
another character breakdown for a character that will be
0:21
involved in an upcoming project coming on June 24th and of
0:25
course I am talking about Iron Hearts.
0:27
As of this recording on May 6th, Marvel still has not promoted
0:33
the show, which is concerning, but what can you do except
0:38
promote it yourself? So who is the hood?
0:42
What is he going to do in the show?
0:44
What is his deal? I have a lot here for you, so I
0:47
hope you enjoy it. So Ironheart is right around the
0:54
corner hitting Disney Plus on June 24th and we will see The
0:58
Hood for the first time in the MCU.
1:00
So what is his background? I'm going to tell you The Hood
1:04
was created by Brian K Von and Kyle Hotz and 1st appeared in
1:08
The Hood Number One in July of 2002.
1:13
Here's a quick version of how The Hood came to be.
1:16
OK, Parker Robbins grew up around some shady characters.
1:20
His dad was tight with a kingpin and was around a lot.
1:23
When Parker was a kid, his mom ended up in a mental hospital
1:27
and his dad was thought to be dead.
1:29
So Parker was living with his pregnant girlfriend Sarah.
1:32
One day he and his cousin John got a tip about a suspicious
1:36
shipment at an abandoned factory.
1:38
When they went to check it out, all they found were some
1:41
candles, a folded chair, and what looked like to be tribal
1:44
art. That's when Nasanti demon
1:47
attacked them. Parker shot it with his handgun
1:51
and figured he'd killed it. He thought that was it, so he
1:55
took the demon's creepy hooded cloak and boots.
1:57
Which is weird that that's a weird thing to do, Parker, but
2:02
whatever. While running from some thugs
2:04
afterwards, Parker realized that the boots could make him fly.
2:07
Later, after John punched him in the stomach, he discovered that
2:10
the cloak could turn him invisible as long as he held his
2:14
breath. So after his self-titled series
2:17
The Hood, The Hood popped up again in 2006 miniseries Beyond,
2:22
which took place in space and showed him leaning a bit more
2:26
toward being an anti hero than a straight up villain.
2:29
In 2007 interview with Newsrama writer Brian Michael Bendis said
2:35
that in New Avengers he planned to give Parker Robbins a
2:38
treatment similar to Vito Corleone's in The Godfather Part
2:41
2. Bendis pointed out that like
2:44
Century and Echo, the Hood was a great new character that other
2:47
writers really hadn't touched, so he wanted to make sure Parker
2:51
didn't fade into obscurity, which is a hero's work.
2:56
That said, Parker didn't stay on the anti hero path for long.
3:00
In 2007 New Avengers storyline, he returned to full villain
3:05
mode, rising up as the godfather of super villains.
3:09
This mostly happened because Marvel Civil War event had the
3:12
heroes too busy or divided to stop him.
3:16
Even when the New Avengers took down his gang of super
3:19
criminals, he broke them out only to beat them again later.
3:24
After Secret Invasion. In 2008, The Hood took on a
3:26
bigger role as a part of the Cabal and even got his own
3:30
limited series, Dark Reign The Hood written by Jeff Parker.
3:34
Interestingly, ever since Bendis took over for the character,
3:38
Parker hasn't been seen using the boots or the Nasanti Demon.
3:42
The whole demon back story was later revealed to be a disguise
3:46
for Dormammu, tying into the runaway Serie by Brian Vaughn.
3:52
So that's a quick breakdown, but there's so much more to the
3:55
character than that so let's just let's just get into it.
4:00
Parker Robbins was a small time crook who always had a thing for
4:03
the flashy, dangerous lifestyle of super villains.
4:06
He even looked up to guys like Electro when he was younger.
4:09
With his mom needing constant medical care, Parker dropped out
4:13
of high school and turned to crime to pay the bills, all
4:15
while lying to her about having a normal job.
4:19
His cousin John King was also into the shady stuff and too
4:23
stuck together for most of it. While juggling his criminal side
4:27
gigs and hooking up with a prostitute named Grow, Parker
4:31
was living with his pregnant girlfriend Sarah, who had no
4:34
idea about his double life. She thought he worked odd jobs
4:38
like security gigs to make ends meet.
4:41
One night, Parker and John hit up a warehouse to steal some
4:44
gear and ended up walking into a bizarre magical ritual.
4:48
Just as they were about to leave, they got attacked by a
4:51
cloaked demon. Parker shot it and figured it
4:54
was dead, so he swiped its red cloak and boots before bailing.
4:58
On the way home, the guys some guys tried to rob him for his
5:02
shoes, so he threw on the demon boots and ran.
5:05
That's when he discovered they let him walk on air.
5:09
Later, at John's place, he realized the cloak made him
5:12
visible, but only while he was holding his breath.
5:16
Using these new powers, John began stealing weapons and
5:19
supplies to level up his criminal game.
5:23
What he didn't know was that the cloak came with a serious catch.
5:27
It made him a host for Dormammu, a demon Lord of the Dark
5:31
Dimension. If you are more of a comic
5:34
reader, no. If you're more of an MCU
5:36
watcher, then you know that Dormammu.
5:39
You saw him in Doctor Strange movie, you know, because he came
5:44
to bargain. So just to tie that thread for
5:48
you later, John convinced him to help steal a shipment of
5:52
diamonds being smuggled in by a crime boss named Gollum.
5:56
But things went S very fast. Gollum's top assassin, Madame
6:01
Rapier, sent villains like Constrictor, Jack O Lantern, and
6:06
Shocker to take him out. Somehow Parker managed to beat
6:09
them, but accidentally shot and killed a cop.
6:12
In the chaos, John was arrested and the media dubbed Parker the
6:16
Hood, turning him into a wanted man.
6:20
Parker tried to bust John out of, but he got ambushed by the
6:23
cops using AIM tech. Under pressure, the Cloak took
6:28
over and unleashed some serious dark magic.
6:31
John didn't want to be a fugitive and asked Parker to get
6:34
him out the legal way. Parker stormed into Gollum's
6:37
office, offered to give back the stolen diamonds in exchange for
6:41
a cut of the profits, and pretended to go into business
6:44
with him. But Gollum had other plans and
6:47
sent Rapier to kill him. That's what you do when you work
6:51
with villains. You don't trust anyone.
6:56
Parker was ready. He was.
6:58
He overpowered her. He forced her into a copy of his
7:01
cloak. When the cops showed up, they
7:03
mistook her for the Hood and killed her on site for the cops
7:07
murder. With Rapier gone and John
7:10
cleared of the charges, Parker disappeared into the shadows,
7:14
free to do things his way. The Hood ended up being one of
7:18
the Super powered people pulled into the Beyonder's twisted
7:21
cosmic games, where the goal was to basically fight and kill each
7:25
other. Once Parker realized the
7:27
Beyonder could reshape reality itself, he turned invisible and
7:31
tried to backstab the others to steal that power for himself.
7:36
Craven quickly took him down and Parker backed off asking for
7:41
forgiveness. Later, the group crash landed on
7:46
Battle World and started trying to figure out how to escape.
7:50
While off on his own, the ever skeptical Hood checked on a
7:54
badly injured Spider Man, only to discover it was actually the
7:59
Space Phantom in disguise. Eventually, when everyone got
8:03
trapped in Limbo thanks to the Phantom's actions, the Hood
8:07
ended up bonding with Gravity. A young and idealistic hero, he
8:12
ended up opening up about his past, including some deeply
8:16
personal stuff about Sarah and their stillborn child.
8:20
After it was revealed that their real enemy was the cosmic being
8:23
known as the Stranger, Gravity sacrificed himself so the others
8:27
could escape. Back on Earth, the Hood showed
8:31
up at Gravity's funeral to pay his respects.
8:34
Now we have to talk about his criminal empire.
8:39
During the chaos of the superhuman Civil War, Parker
8:42
Robbins saw an opportunity and jumped in to build his power in
8:46
the world of organized super crime.
8:48
With his cousin John King by his side, he pulled together a gang
8:53
made-up of mostly escaped inmates from the Raft prison
8:55
break and pitched the group as an honest, mutual support kind
9:01
of alliance to earn their trust. He brutally beat up the hero
9:05
Tigra on camera for Jigsaw and shared the footage with the
9:09
criminal underworld as a show of loyalty.
9:12
Parker also set his sights on taking down other crime bosses
9:16
like Mr. Fear with help from Turk Barrett, and slowly worked
9:22
towards dominating New York's entire criminal scene.
9:27
He even manipulated Daredevil along the way.
9:30
With a tip from Camistro, he took out the owl during an
9:35
underground auction for a Death Lock Cyborg, further expanding
9:39
his reach. But things got messy when he ran
9:42
into Wolverine, who was with The Avengers at the time.
9:46
After barely escaping, Parker used the Death Lock unit to pull
9:51
off a bank heist in New Jersey and ranking in millions, though
9:56
the Cyborg was destroyed in the process.
9:59
Just when he thought things were going great, The Avengers with
10:02
some magical backup from Doctor Strange, ambushed him and his
10:06
crew. Strange used illusions to make
10:09
it look like they were up against an army of heroes.
10:12
The Hood bailed mid flight and most of his crew ended up
10:15
arrested by SHIELD. Still, he wasn't done.
10:19
He regrouped and planned a revenge mission.
10:22
He raided the SHIELD facility where his people were locked up
10:26
and tortured Tigra again for Intel.
10:29
She spilled that The Avengers were hiding out in Doctor
10:31
Strange's Sanctum Sanctorium, protected by magic.
10:36
Using his own mystical powers, the Hood broke through the
10:39
defenses and launched a surprise attack.
10:42
The Avengers got wrecked and Doctor Strange was killed, but
10:46
came back after using dark magic, taking everyone out in
10:50
the process. That move cost Strange his title
10:53
as Sorcerer Supreme and the Hood disappeared again, still getting
10:58
guidance from the demon inside his cloak, still focused on
11:02
freeing more of the crew. The Hood went after SHIELD again
11:06
and rescued Madam Mask during the fight.
11:10
It turned out that the agents that he killed were actually
11:13
Scrolls, alien shape shifters who secretly infiltrated Earth.
11:18
I think we all remember. I don't want to bring up the
11:21
series Secret Invasion. Oh, I just did.
11:26
Sorry. If you liked it, you liked it.
11:28
If you didn't, you're on my side here.
11:31
The Hood's crew captured 1 and tortured it for info.
11:35
Growing suspicious, Robbins used his cloak's mystical sight to
11:39
spot another disguised scroll and instantly killed him.
11:42
That's when he finally confronted the demonic force
11:45
controlling his cloak and learned it was Dormammu.
11:49
When the scroll invasion went public, Robbins rallied his gang
11:53
not for the heroics, but to protect his criminal empire.
11:56
They joined forces with the Earth's Mightiest Heroes in
12:00
Central Park to take on the scrolls.
12:03
After Norman Osborne took down the Scroll Queen and the
12:06
invasion ended, Parker and the other villains went underground
12:10
again after helping fight off the scrolls.
12:13
The Hood caught the attention of Norman Osborne, who invited him
12:17
to join the secret group called the Cabal.
12:20
It was basically a power circle made-up of influential players
12:24
who supported each other's goals in the new world order Osborne
12:27
was creating. Under Osborne's leadership, the
12:31
superhero world took a dark turn.
12:34
He twisted it into something corrupted and dangerous.
12:38
As part of this new system, the Hood was given a shot at going
12:42
legit by officially registering his criminal empire under the
12:46
initiative, making it one of Osborne's sanctioned forces.
12:51
When the real Avengers planned a sneak attack on Osborne's fake
12:55
Avengers A-Team made-up of rebranded villains, Osborne
12:59
caught wind of it. Instead of letting the attack
13:02
play out, he sent the Hood Syndicate to ambush The Avengers
13:05
at the Hellfire Club mansion. The Hood's crew had the numbers
13:10
and easily overpowered the heroes until Carol Danvers used
13:14
Spider Woman's powers to stun the villains long enough for The
13:18
Avengers to escape. Later, when the Punisher tried
13:21
to take out Osborne and failed thanks to Sentry, Osborne told
13:26
the Hood to track him down. To help with the mission, Parker
13:30
tapped into Dormammu's dark magic to resurrect a bunch of
13:35
dead villains who had been killed by the vigilante Scourge
13:38
of the Underworld. This included names like
13:41
Basilisk, Cheetah, Cyclone, Death Adder, and Titania, among
13:47
others. Together, they became his new
13:50
squad, ready to hunt the Punishers.
13:54
Thanks to his connection with Dormammu, the Hood was given the
13:58
power to kill Doctor Strange. With Strange out of the picture,
14:01
Dormammu wanted to take over as Sorcerer Supreme, using Parker
14:05
as his vessel, but Strange managed to escape and went to
14:10
The Avengers for help. Meanwhile, Parker was struggling
14:13
hard with the demonic possession.
14:15
Every time he tried to destroy the Cursed Cloak, he got
14:17
punished for it. During this time, he cut off
14:20
contact with most of his gang except for Madam Ask.
14:24
She managed to find him and, grateful for how he looked after
14:28
her, offered her support. She even revealed her real
14:31
scarred face to him, sparking a twisted romance between the two.
14:35
Next on Germano's hit list was Damon Hellstrom, the son of
14:39
Satan, another contender to take over Strange's role, but
14:43
ultimately Brother Voodoo was chosen as the new Sorcerer
14:47
Supreme. He and the New Avengers took on
14:49
the Hood in a brutal fight, and in the end, Brother Voodoo
14:52
stripped Parker of Dormammu's powers for good.
14:56
To make up for that loss, Loki gave the Hood the Norn Stones, a
15:01
powerful magical artifact that he used to boost his gang.
15:04
But during Osborne's attack on Asgard, Loki had a change of
15:09
heart and took the Stones back to help the heroes fight the
15:12
Void. After the Void was finally
15:14
defeated, the Hood was arrested. While locked up in the Raft,
15:19
Peter Robbins became friends with fellow inmate Erzia, an
15:25
Inhuman who let slip that black bolt what had hidden an Infinity
15:29
Gem. Once Parker bribed a guard and
15:32
escaped, he went on a mission to get the Reality Gem, which was
15:35
stashed in the Himalayas. He was hoping to reclaim the
15:39
kind of power he lost when he was cut off from Dharamu.
15:43
After getting the Reality Gem, it teleported him straight to
15:47
the Power Gem, which was hidden inside the Baxter Building.
15:50
He managed to grab that one too, but not before drawing attention
15:54
and soon found himself facing off against the Red Hulk.
15:58
Somehow, Parker actually beat the Red Hulk, though doing so
16:02
definitely got The Avengers attention.
16:05
After that, he dropped by to see Matamask and used the Reality
16:09
Gem to heal the scars in her face.
16:11
Then he headed to Arena 51 to grab the Space Gem.
16:15
The Avengers showed up right as he got it, so he used it to
16:19
teleport them away and continued hunting the next gem, the Time
16:23
Gem. But The Avengers had already
16:25
claimed that one. Even Thor, Red Hulk, and Neymour
16:28
couldn't stand up to the combined power of the three Gems
16:31
Parker had. But when Owatu the Watcher
16:35
appeared and distracted him for just a second, Red Hulk managed
16:38
to snatch away the power Gem. Everyone ended up getting
16:41
teleported to New Mexico, right near where The Avengers he
16:45
ditched earlier had landed. Before they could regroup,
16:48
Parker bailed again and headed to the ruins of Xavier's School,
16:52
where Professor X and another group of Avengers were trying to
16:55
get past the Danger Room's defenses to reach the Mind Gym.
17:00
Parker got there 1st and took it despite Xavier trying to stop
17:04
him. The gems then pulled him into
17:07
the Astral Plane in search of the Soul Gem.
17:10
There he ran into what looks like Thanos, but it turned out
17:14
to be an illusion created by Doctor Strange to distract him.
17:18
While the trick didn't completely work, it did give The
17:21
Avengers enough time to catch up to and steal back the Space and
17:25
Mind Gems. Red Hulk tried to wrestle the
17:28
Reality Gem away from him, but the fight caused reality itself
17:32
to start falling apart. When Parker tried to get the
17:35
Gems back, he realized Iron Man had already taken them.
17:39
In the end, the gems designed to be together rejected him, and
17:43
the Reality Gem left him too, rejoining the rest of the
17:47
Infinity Gauntlet, now worn by Iron Man.
17:50
Powerless and defeated, the Hood was teleported back to the Raft.
17:55
After getting back into the crime gang, the Hood decided to
17:59
build a new crew to help him climb back up to the top.
18:04
He started recruiting a bunch of villains aiming to form his own
18:07
version of the Illuminati, a sort of a elite club of super
18:11
villains because he wanted to play in the big leagues and
18:14
eventually control the whole world order.
18:18
When a plan to steal as Guardian weapons fell apart, Parker
18:23
shifted gears. He tried to rally a group of
18:26
villains who had been abused by SHIELD while locked up at
18:29
Pleasant Hill. Things were going smoothly until
18:32
you suggested they start going after the families of their
18:34
enemies. That crossed the line for
18:37
Titania, who called him out on it, which should have.
18:42
She forced him to teleport them both away from the hideout, and
18:46
in the fight that followed, she took him down and destroyed his
18:49
magical cloak, cutting him off from all the powers that were
18:52
given to him. When the Norn Stones boosting
18:55
his powers again, the Hood made another play to become the top
19:00
dog in the criminal world, basically aiming to be the next
19:03
Kingpin. He jumped into the power
19:06
struggle already heating up between Black Cat and Willis
19:09
Striker. As his first big move, he used
19:12
the stones to bring Hammerhead, Black Cat's right hand man who
19:15
had been killed by Diamondback, back from the dead.
19:20
After the Defenders took down Diamondback, the Hood swooped in
19:24
and took over his whole criminal network.
19:26
The Defenders tracked him to a penthouse thanks to some Intel
19:29
from Black Cat, but he managed to fight them off and slip away.
19:33
Not long after, he gathered a bunch of super villains for a
19:37
meeting to pitch his vision of a new, more organized underworld.
19:40
But before he could really sell it, the Defender showed up
19:43
again, this time with backup from other heroes.
19:47
Still, the Hood pushed ahead with his plan to rebuild his
19:51
gang, starting with targeting Victor Von Doom, who had
19:55
recently turned over a new leaf and was operating as the new
19:58
Iron Man. The Hood's crew attacked Doom
20:01
multiple times, but couldn't manage to kill him.
20:04
Thinking there might be a link between Doom and Stark, the Hood
20:07
tried to strong arm Eric Lynch, Stark Industries acting CCO.
20:13
Into giving him control of the company, especially since Tony
20:16
Stark had recently gone missing. Before he could pull it off,
20:20
both Doom and the newly returned Iron Man showed up and wrecked
20:24
his plan. It also came out that some
20:27
unknown demon had been possessing Robins and used him
20:31
to once again scar Doom's face with Hellfire.
20:34
Hawkeye started going after the Hood after he kept dodging
20:38
capture. Things got worse when someone
20:40
who was actually Ronan started attacking the Hood's hideouts.
20:44
The Hood was not happy about it, so he sent his guys to a Magia
20:49
base, wiping out everyone there to send a message to Ronan.
20:53
Soon, the Hood and his criminal crew were confronted by Hawkeye,
20:56
who was tracking Ronan. The two clashed and the Hood
21:00
ended up injuring Hawkeye pretty badly.
21:03
Not long after, he hired Bullseye to go after Ronan, but
21:07
before he could enjoy his usual birthday party, Hawkeye ruined
21:10
his plans. On top of that, Mayor Fisk's
21:12
assistant warned the Hood that he was pushing his luck, so the
21:16
Hood pulled back from attacking Clint.
21:19
Meanwhile, Bullseye figured out that Ronan had was actually
21:22
Hawkeye impersonated him to make Ronan look like a full on
21:26
criminal. The Hood then planned to reveal
21:29
Hawkeye's identity to the press and put a $3,000,000 bounty on
21:32
him for the villains he'd rounded up.
21:35
But after Hawkeye beat Bullseye, he took the three million and
21:39
used it to pay Count Nefaria, who sent a demon to deal with
21:44
the Hood. The Hood got his magic stripped
21:47
away by the demon, leaving him powerless.
21:50
Still, he tried to fight Hawkeye, but it was pointless.
21:53
Hawkeye charged at him, knocked him out, and left him for the
21:57
police to catch after losing his magical powers.
22:01
Parker snapped and went crazy trying to find trying to get his
22:05
hood back. But when he found out Black Cat
22:08
was visiting Peter Parker in the hospital, he barged into his
22:11
room with a gun. Threatened to kill Peter if
22:14
Felicia didn't get him his hood back by morning.
22:17
She agreed, but only if Mary Jane came with her since she was
22:21
part of the crew. Robbins waited by Peter's
22:25
bedside all night, getting more desperate as time passed.
22:29
Just when he was about to go through with his threat, Felicia
22:32
showed up with the hood. Except it wasn't the real one.
22:35
She had tricked him. As soon as the hood put it on,
22:38
it turned out to be the demon bag that swallowed his original
22:43
cloak. The bag consumed him whole,
22:45
leaving him a victim of his own greed.
22:50
Parker somehow managed to escape back to Earth and tried to
22:54
rebuild his power by using the Hollow Gospels to summon the
22:58
Halloween spirit. However, Ghost Rider showed up
23:02
to fight the spirit while Elsa Bloodstone and Talia Warrode
23:07
stopped the summoning ritual before it could fully take
23:09
shape. When Xerathos, the demon spirit,
23:14
got separated from Johnny Blaze and was looking for a new host,
23:17
it ended up bonding with Parker. He'd made a deal with Mephisto
23:21
to regain his power, and now he was filled with the spirit of
23:24
vengeance. Parker moved to Chicago and
23:27
teamed up with a gang of vampires led by Helmuth,
23:32
planning to take down the five criminal families controlling
23:35
the city. His first target was Gretel
23:39
Wagner from the German Mafia. He wiped out her whole operation
23:43
and let his vampire allies feast on the mafia members, but kept
23:48
Gretel locked up in the meat locker.
23:50
Robbins took all their money to restore his wealth, then bought
23:54
a fancy apartment for his ex-wife and daughter to try to
23:56
reconnect with them. Next, he captured Balfi, the
24:00
leader of another family, and tortured him alongside Wagner.
24:05
After that, he went after Big Pete, who ran an illegal
24:08
gambling ring. Robbins killed everyone involved
24:11
and tortured Pete with his Pennant stare.
24:14
He got more info from the criminal bosses, which led him
24:17
to Abraham Davis, who controlled the labor unions.
24:21
But things started to get messy with Helmuth.
24:24
Her vampire followers were getting impatient, wanted to
24:26
feed on the captured crime bosses, so Robbins ended up
24:29
killing them to take control. Eventually, Helmuth and Robbins
24:33
had a falling out, but he did not care.
24:35
He already taken over most of Chicago's underworld and had
24:39
enough resources to cover his tracks while still trying to
24:44
make up with Sarah and Brianne. He went after the last crime
24:48
boss, a drug Lord Lorenzo Perez. After breaking into Perez's
24:52
facility and having most of his men kill themselves, Robbins
24:56
offered Perez a chance to live if he handed over his business
25:00
and worked for him. But Perez knew that about Ghost
25:04
Rider and rather than submit, he blew up his own facility, taking
25:09
himself out of the process. Furious and empty handed,
25:13
Robbins returned to the meat locker to find Helmus Gang had
25:16
eaten his prisoners. In panic, he rushed to find
25:21
Sarah and Brienne, only to find that they had been turned into
25:24
vampires by Helmuth as revenge for killing her minions.
25:27
This pushed Robbins over the edge.
25:29
Enraged, he vowed to burn the whole city to the ground.
25:34
Johnny Blaze and his buddies up immediately confronted Robbins,
25:37
wanting to take the Spirit of Vengeance back from him.
25:40
A shootout broke out between the two Ghost Riders, with Robbins
25:44
telling Johnny that Zerothos chose him because he was willing
25:48
to give the demon his blood. Robbins managed to Pierce Johnny
25:53
with his chain, but before he could do any more damage, they
25:56
were both trapped by Zeb's spell.
25:58
This allowed Johnny to briefly talk to Zerothos, but Mephisto
26:02
himself showed up, broke the spell, and made sure Robbins
26:06
kept the Spirit of Vengeance. With Sarah and Brienne now
26:09
turned into vampires, Mephisto told Robbins that he had to kill
26:13
them as part of their deal. Robbins refused, and instead
26:15
offered his soul to Mephisto in exchange for his family
26:18
returning to normal. Mephisto agreed, but he sent
26:22
Robbins to Hell. He called Andy, called him
26:25
pathetic. In Hell, Robbins was tortured
26:27
and forced to help transport suffering souls, while Zorothos
26:32
finally reunited with Johnny. The Hood managed to break out of
26:35
Hell and reunite with his gang, including Deathwatch.
26:39
Determined to regain his power, he made his move to the Dark
26:43
Holders, A cult that worshipped Saithon, and declared himself
26:47
their new leader. He had them relocate to the
26:50
abandoned Castle Dracula, where they began plans to recreate the
26:54
Dark Hold. As they searched for pieces of
26:57
Scython around the globe, they discovered that Jack Russell,
27:01
the werewolf by night, carried a bit of Scython's essence.
27:04
Because werewolves were created through the dark cold, they only
27:07
managed to get a piece of his flesh, but with the help of
27:10
Elder Dorgana, they were able to create a clone to help track
27:15
Russell down. So that is the hood.
27:20
That's a that's who the character I think Anthony Ramos
27:25
will be playing in the Iron Heart series.
27:28
I mean, that's who the character will be based on.
27:30
There's no way they get that that dark, but they might
27:35
because Mephisto is supposed to be in this show too.
27:39
I'm I'm getting my hopes up all over again.
27:42
I do this every every time because I have some comic books
27:44
that you can check out to get to know the Hood even more.
27:47
He's a cool character, dark character, magical character.
27:50
Been to all that. So starting off The Hood numbers
27:55
one through 6, his origin story Beyond number one through 6,
28:01
similar to Secret Wars, and we see more of Parker's
28:05
motivations, which is pretty cool.
28:09
Dark Reign The Hood, number one through 5, which you should
28:13
always check out. Dark green.
28:15
I feel like I say that in every video of a character breakdown I
28:18
make, but dark green is where it's at, so yeah.
28:22
And then you can see how Parker deals with all this power and
28:25
how he's connected to a demon, so that's kind of cool.
28:28
Avengers The Initiative numbers 25 through 35.
28:34
House of M Masters of Evil, Avengers Volume 4, Ghost Rider
28:41
volume five, Final Vengeance. So that's all I have for you
28:48
today regarding the Hood. Be sure to like and subscribe so
28:52
when they finally drop a trailer for Iron Heart, you can watch me
28:59
review it. So with that being said, have a
29:01
marvelous day.
