I just find it so funny that Kit Harington goes from being an honorable knight type of character for like 8 years and then after 2 years, he's back in it.

[gundampeacekeeper]

You also missed that the Ebony blade feeds off of a person’s dark and evil thoughts to become more powerful. It’s like the anti-mjolnir

[leonbrooks]

I still laugh that in GoT the last time Richard Madden’s character Robb talks to Kit’s character Jon he tells him “the next time I see you, you will be all in black” and now we get this👏 better than the ending in the show 🤣

[angelloderrico]

Yes Kit Harrington is going to play another sword wielding hero.

[quentinfogger]

It's about time you did the history of Marvel's Black Knight. Thanks for doing that

[marksantiago]

I don’t think Ajak and Ikarus are dead since in the comics they are recreated and they’re memories are just wiped, also plus Selma Hayek has additional contracts with marvel

[bencollins]

Got chills the moment they mentioned the ebony blade in Eternals

[jamesb]

That has to be some Kit Herrington fan art in the thumbnail, just so gooood

[Spideymaynereports]

Love that we're finally shining a spotlight on the smaller and cooler heroes in comics :)

[quentinfogger]

If Black Knight got his own movie or Disney Plus show, do you think we will see Dreadknight as a villain? Can you do history of Dreadknight?

[ashstark]

Sounds like a really cool character. I'm sure Kit Harrington is gonna nail this one. Game of thrones now feels a 8 year long audition for him to land this role in the MCU.

[CQC.]

They just made him OP in the recent comics he can literally come back to life if he dies but he needs to be holding the ebony blade to be resurrected

[ApplePi]

Nice, I've been waiting for this. Thanks a ton!

[reaverofsouls]

When I got into comics was in the late 80s/early 90s, and Black Knight was one of the Avengers I remembered seeing around that time. Always liked the character, just always thought he was really cool.

[thecopyjedi]

Have/Can you'd do a history/origin for Adam Warlock.I like the character but need some refreshers on his backstory.

[Sarnt_Eskie]

One of my fave. Character

Martin Lawrence played it perfectly.

[Mayhem_jester]

He's dope can't wait to see him as black knight in the mcu

[quentinfogger]

What do you think the Black Knight would be like if he chose the Chalice, Staff and Shield instead of the Sword?

[AintNoWaye]

Man im hype, knew they wouldnt get Kit for some one off comedy role. From Jon Snow to Black Knight

[PatrickJanz]

Hm he has much more power with the ebony blade other than cut through things. What about the teleport? Not being able to be killed? Summon the sword? The black armor? Magic immunity and so on? If the Black Knight in the MCU gains some of this powers he will be top tier power level.
