    Oh, this is some good content!
  • I seem to remember that Black Cat from the Spider-Man comics was a Super Soldier Serum recipient. It was discovered the her father or grandfather worked on the original Captain America formula and he was forced to attempt to recreate it. To be sure that he didn’t make a ”mistake” they kidnapped his daughter and used it on her, making her the Black Cat.

    in the comics, walker was given a serum by the powerbroker, which gave him superhuman strength and endurance. same with all of the 'capt america' types, after rogers. this was not the SS serum. this was something to make superhumans. thats why all the people who went to the powerbroker all had superhuman strength, among other abilities. the SS formula just makes a human into their peak physical form. thats it. no one else got that exact serum that rogers did. anything else was written well after those comics, or retconned in later.

    Really enjoyed the history of the super serum and the characters' backstories.

    You forget Omega Red, he was a Russian Super Soldier too but he went rogue. Wolverine and his Weapon X team put the deep freeze on him to defeat the lunatic until his eventual return.
  • @latinomalenurse
    The Hulk did not truly have any contact with the serum, you do realize this is purely the MCU version
  • @matthewwest3405
    Black Cat also took the serum in the cartoons from the 90s.
  • Dethlok in the Agents of Shield universe. Recieved a mix of SS serum, Kree blood, and Extremis serum, possible addition of Inhuman dna.
  • Dunno why they mixed the comics and the MCU. Bucky doesn’t have the serum in the comics, also, Battlestar got the serum at the same time as John/US Agent(although, it’s not explicitly stated that what they got was the sss. It’s just a strength enhancement process). Also, Mockingbird got the serum in the comics. And you forgot Luke Cage, Protocide, Sentry, Warrior woman, Master Man, Jack Monroe, Patriot, and Man-Thing.
  • @xodiaq
    You’re definitely mashing comics and MCU up in here, and they aren’t the same.
  • @joemagnum611
    Bucky never took the Serum. He was given a metal arm and brainwashed by the Russians and put on ice. Whenever he completed a mission he returned and put him on ice until he was needed again

    I like these videos, did not know task master was a guy originally.

    A number of people in the comics received versions of the supersoldier serum, usually from the Power Broker, Nuke, Nomad, Bantam, Gladiatrix, and Battlestar who, unlike his Falcon and The Winter Soldier counterpart, didn't die. Although, one similarity is that, for a time, he was John Walker's ( U.S. Agent ) partner.
  • @DarkstoryX
    Deathlok from the show Agents of Shield also took a variant of the Super Soldier Serum mixed with Gamma Radiation and Extremis There is also The Sentry who took the super refined version of the serum Luke Cage has another variant in the comics since it was confirmed that his formula was a part of Weapons Plus, just like Cap, Wolverine, and Deadpool
  • @cuttermasterson
    Your missing a few and I question a couple. The main one that flash through my mind at the end was where was Black Cat and Sentry? But overall it’s a good list. Thanks for sharing
  • @norrislaw1983
    There are at least 6 that aren't on the list. Felicia Harding aka Black Cat. Magneto from X-Men Evolution used Project Rebirth to restore his body to his prime. And 4 or 5 more heros in the 90s Spiderman animated series that got formulas derived from Captain America's formula since they couldn't fully replicate the original formula. In their 70s they could only maintain their power for about an hour a day.
  • @robmarsh918
    Nice! Heads up though: your audio cut out around the end part. And there was a blackout period somewhere in the middle
  • @ericw8478
    In the comics wasn't Mockingbird given a combination of Super-soldier serum and Infinity formula?Wasn't it also revealed that the chemical bath that gave Luke Cage his powers was partially derived from the SSS? And how could Zola have given Bucky his metal arm when he was captured during the same mission Bucky fell from the train, before he lost it?
