    MODOK in the new Antman movie is probably the same version of Darren Cross from the first one, but at the end it's revealed he was sent to the quantum realm, but improperly, so his body was all messed up so Kang put him in the chair. His brain probably stayed the same size comparative to the rest of his body which will be the reason why his head is so large
  • Whilst MODOK isn’t my favourite villain, he has been in some of my favourite stories such as Jeph Lobe’s Hulk run and is the reason Thunderbolt Ross is able to turn into the Red Hulk.
  • I remember collecting marvel universe cards in the 90s, reading all the first appearance dates and realizing a lot of crucial characters debuted in 1963
  • @JD-iu6rv
    I hope they don’t kill him off. He would be a cool villain to have come back in different movies. Like the first 15 mins bc he’s an obstacle
  • This is probably my favourite video in a while. It's much more like the older videos that got me checking out the channel in the first place. This video is more informative and focused, instead of just being loud and saying things are amazing. Loved this video, and learned a lot about a character I knew VERY little about. Would absolutely love to see more videos that feel like this one. It just feels more passionate, which is great. Had me wanting more.

    I think its the Darren Cross from Antman. When he imploded it actually shrunk him and deformed him while also sending him to the quantum realm. Kang then has him imprisoned, taken care of and gains info from him about Scott, Hank, Hope and Janet. Kang and Darren build the MODOK suit.
  • Always love to hear Rob's voice and enthusiasm as he brings his awesome knowledge to us!
  • I remember reading the 3 comic run of Modok and the Hulk. Betty gets changed into the Harpy. Hulk flexes his muscles to break Modok's grip. Good memories.
  • I don't believe it! You're finally covering MODOK. I know he's regarded as a C-lister, but his body horror is a great example of what Marvel could be.
  • @IN-tm8mw
    Characters like Modok and The Leader have always found my curiosity and attention.
  • The first time I saw Modok was in the old Iron Man cartoon, good times
  • @_TheViewer_
    The only explanation of his character I was waiting for, keep goin Rob ! 🎉 And real thanks for the background infos on publishing and etc, really appreciate it !
  • movie spoilers: ended up being the comedic version of modok (with some seriousness) and he ended up dying…
  • Been wondering when you was gonna do a video on MODOK, so thank you!
  • Hi rob! Great videos mate, been watching you for years!!!
