I like how in Avengers Assemble Sam's humanoids seems to have some kind of crumbs of free will.
The humanoid they captured is resisting hacking and threats but totally give up out of fear of Hulk.
It's an headcanon I have and enjoy, Sam giving them personalities, kinda like Gru's minions
#SamTalk
an already angsty first encounter and at some point he looks away and stand up to calm down but as the video keeps playing behind him, he hears Sam calling for him while sobbing, with fear and despair in his voice, like comics Sam tends to do when he's scared, desperate and hurt haha (💀)

a comics panel of a kid with a hood saying "out of breath?"
a comics panel of a kid with a creepy face
a comics panel of a kid with a creepy face saying "you look changed, for certain. Something in the eyes, yes?"
a comics panel of a kid with a hood
My headcanon is that this kid was actually "Sam" (when he was a kid). Because unlike any other LMD Sam made and control, this one has his own voice but slightly different (understand by this younger). So I like to think he made it after himself.

a screenshot of the Incredible Hulk game (PS3/360) of MCU Sam with his hand on Bruce's shoulder, telling him "I'm very confident, Bruce"
How can he be somehow gayer in this game than he already is in the movie?
#SamTalk
When you think of it MCU Sam didn't believe Bruce when he said the army was after him. He used his professional mail to talk with Bruce.
That's probably how Bruce reached to him, he knew his name and his face when they met.
And yet, Sam used the M Blue alias anyway. Was it-

He also has, like, a tear shapped mark on the corner of his left eye and I find this lil' details very tragic.
it gives him that fallen angel vibe I love so much about Sam. And it's even better if you see his left eye as his humanity.

There's this reddish shadow under MCU Sam's nose (left part) that makes it looks like it's bleeding or something and it's an idea I like, the idea that maybe he has nose bleed.
In comics it happened once and I wish it was more exploited, Sam having nose bleed because of his body still-
#samtalk
The way MCU Sam went from freaking out at the mere idea of people getting hurt to murdering people by shooting them in the head at close range without even blinking is absolutly heartbreaking. The way his heart was drained of any form of empathy and happiness kills me, I mean, look at him!

Sam lost an eye to torture and gamma but what about his right ear? It's cearly swollen and kind of mixed to his brain so does it still works?
#SamTalk
I don't mind MCU Sam ending up in the Raft.
But the way Captain showed up to mock him, a guy who was TORTURED and dehumanized for 16 years, while forgiving a war criminal who was willing to let Sam create a WWIII rather than saying the truth was absolutly insane (and not in a positive way)

Look at this absolute BANGER by @redgreengoblin.bsky.social !! I have no word to express how incredibly fucking cool this design is, I'm not over it aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

I really love Agents of S.M.A.S.H. Sam (he's, in fact, the reason I gave my Sam pointy ears), I know the show is kinda unpopular but it highly contributed to make me love him so it will always have a special place in my heart
#SamTalk
I so so love how MCU Sam is aware of the multiverse because it was always an headcanon of mine that every Sam are aware of it, at a different lvl.
I like to think they're all kind of connected 'cause when you think of it, the Below Place is "out" of the multiverse, meaning theorically-
#SamTalk
Kinda true except he mostly uses his hacking skill/selling tech rather than mindcontrol
(Fun Fact, he has a whole luxuery estate empire he uses to buy/meet people while he sleeps in his gross nerd cave)
Hacking the CIA bank account to pay his mercenaries in the MCU was very in character lol

John Astin
Colin Clive
David Tennant
Tim Blake Nelson
I was talking about it in someone's DM but I'm sharing it here as well 'cause it's interesting.
Here're the 4 persons who had a physical impact on Sam :
John Astin (Tales to Astonish)
Colin Clive (Bronze Age)
David Tennant (Immortal Hulk)
Tim Blake Nelson (MCU)

Mister Blue used to be Sam's alias when he was human as an Easter Egg to Jones run in which Bruce gets help from a Mister Blue in the same way (e-mails and such).
What they didn't think about that I like a lot, however, is how blue is the opposite of orange (the Leader's color).
#SamTalk
The thing with comics Sam is, unlike Bruce, he's super proud of his mutation. He wears flashy and tights shit because he loves his gamma form.
So I'm very glad the MCU gave us a pre-Leader who's still very uncomfortable in his green skin and hides himself the way Bruce does.
#SamTalk
Samuel Sterns in the MCU with a dark blue hoodie
Bruce Banner in Earth Mightiest Heroes Avengers with a dark blue hoodie
something I love with Sam having a hood and hidding himself in such a casual outfit in the MCU is how similar to Bruce it is, it adds to their parallel.
Somehow the MCU has the biggest potential between them lol
#SamTalk
When you think of it, Sam having an absolute perfect memory means he remember the face and name of every single people he killed
#SamTalk
I think MCU Sam (pre-mutation) would be the kind of overly excited but somewhat super chill workaholic guy who forget to eat and doesn't have a proper sleep schedule. I can imagine him with a slice of bread in his mouth while he quickly dresses up

I really don't know where it's from but here's MCU Sam's first design (no wonder Tim's neck hurt)
#SamTalk
EMH Sam is one of the best Sam ever made in term of design and writing. Even better than some of his comics run.
In this short intro only you have everything, his egocentrism, his Savior complex, his threatening and manipulative behaviors.
(He's voiced by jeffrey combs yes)

Don't ask me why but I think this is super important that MCU Sam sits this way to talk to his victims laying down on the ground in pain if we ever see him again
Do your thing Kevin's spy in my closet!
#SamTalk
Sam attaching something to Half Life who says "attach whatever you want, Leader. I'm not afraid. After all, when you're dead, what else is there to fear?" and Sam saying "you can't even begin to imagine"
I like how Immortal Hulk gave even more sense to these panels a few decades after it was written
#SamTalk
I used to headcanon that Sam was Jewish ever since I started simping him because of his name.
Immortal Hulk gave him a Christian heritage instead but I keep this headcanon for the MCU
#SamTalk
Immortal Hulk made it canon that Bruce accidentally created the Leader in comics but the MCU actually created this idea.
And not just his physical mutation but also his personality. It's obvious in Incredible Hulk how his fascination for Hulk was already consuming him, I mean-
#SamTalk
again, I think it would be important to modernize him and to not totally stick to his obsolete comics self
