Arris being a salty comic fan is something i didnt know i needed. Polite, honest, and not fanboy-eee. I dig it hahaha
I think that's the most important point, if you just give them the title as the best of whatever without earning it, people will reject it. I sure have.
I thought this was the future though, aren't all those people he mentioned dead or at least not active? I would get it if we were 50 issues in and we saw a mediocre backstory but if that's not been revealed they can say what they want, they just have to fufill it with superb storytelling.
@@kaydee1485 This is supposed to introduce these characters to us. If this was an original universe with original IPs, it would have merely been mediocre, but when trying to cash in on previously established characters, you should try to show respect to those characters, otherwise you'll alienate your target audience and ruin the entire reason you used those IPs in the first place.
@@kaydee1485 it was super extra the "greatest detective in the Multiverse" it's clear what the intent was.
Quiet, nerd.
"She's the best detective in the multiver-" gets random ad. Even youtube disagreed.
XD
I think that’s foreshadowing that something bad had happened to the great detective of the past to make them say that. Plus I think he’s forgetting these characters are still green nor do they possibly even have access to those heroes.
@@The_preserver_x16 I could see it
Why are you guys fan boying over the old characters?
They are coming back, relax. Why not just enjoy the new characters and actually give them a chance? Instead of being so dull that you can't even manage to stop comparing the two as if they both can't exist.
@@bobdylan1968 They are obviously sjw pandering except Jon Superman
No need to excuse yourself for the rant. We all agree with you. Those statements made in the comic sounded like it come out of cw's batwoman
THE MOST CRINGE SHOW EVER
Yea it definitely sounded like they were rushin the status of the characters and flipping their character types around
True words have never been spoken before.
@@alexwyckoff8962 indeed.. Right up there with Super(anti-man)girl and Titans on the cringe scale.
@Giovanni Balbosa-Mc Intosh no
literally flipped out when they said she's the best detective! like hold onnnnnnnnn
Maybe she is because the originals are dead but I’m so mad about that
@@bellemadame83 if Bruce isnt around, then it should be Tim
Careful your showing something that needs not saying
@@adrianivashkov4242 What if Tim is also dead? Maybe most of them died and that's why this future state exists.
SJWs have infected DC as well. It's pretty obvious here.
"Here's some new enemies-"
Dead.
"New Justice Lea-"
Dead.
OH OKAY.
Accurate 😂
ULTRAVIOLET LATERN
😂😂😂😂
"This is okay..I guess?"
What a waste
So this Batman’s been around for less than a month and he’s “saved” Gotham. While people get shot there for just wearing a mask? This isn’t making any sense to me.
@Alexa Mancilla I honestly don’t mind if Tim Fox is the new Batman, don’t get me wrong I’d much rather see Damian Wayne take the cowl cuz I think it’ll be a lot more interesting having the super sons as 2/3 of this JL’s trinity. But for Tim Fox I’m not for or against it. Hopefully DC will release his origins so that I’ll judge for myself.
@@FantasmaCAW2K is rather have Tim Drake be the new Batman I felt like this “future state” would’ve been a great opportunity for Tim Drake fans get their wishes fulfilled buuut no talk about wasted potential I mean we already had Richard being Batman, Jason briefly but none for Tim that for me is so dumb
@@alejandrogonzalez9840 Tim’s been Batman before
@@alexmansfield3268 oh yea which time cause I don’t really recall any time unlike someone like Richard Grayson which there a handful of stories that I could name but for Tim not so much
@Alexa Mancilla Nightwing = Great.
But Damian is an incredibly annoying spoiled little prick.
I really like Arris's "salty rant" because it shows what true comic book long-time fans are thinking
True, it's fair criticism
#RetconDoomsdayClock
Let me guess- Somebody read 2 comics from Walmart and applied for a screenwriter's job for Justice League, didn't make the cut and now we're stuck with their version?
"The new Wonder Woman is from Brazil."
No wonder why no men had survived there.
Amazonian eh! guess where the Amazon Jungle is located! lol
@@ShowheenGuy Next issue: She delivers packages by day, super hero by night.
I heard she’s
Brazillian
Memories broken
Aris when you called it out that new green lantern is the best detective now I remembered why I subscribed back in grade 5 because you have the same love of these characters as I do just wanted to say that
I mean she has a ring that allows her to create anything she can imagine and has formal education in detective work so she is more equipped than Batman.
@@kappadarwin9476 but equipment doesn't even come close to smarts, training, and wit
@@redassassinyt4908 Batman is a detective in name only. He has the title more as a honorific than an actual certification.
The New Green Lantern being a former cop has more familiarity with actual detective work and procedure.
@@redassassinyt4908 Agreed.
Sure she has a Green Lantern Ring. So it does prove she has the will power. Along with the formal detective work. But comparing her and Bruce? Naw. The real difference between the two is experience. Jo did go through the formal training. But I doubt she had the amount of training Bruce had. Bats gained a majority of his experience through training around the world and on-field experience. Now I may be biased here since I just learned about Jo. But claiming that she is the best detective in the DC Multiverse? Impossible. We the readers haven't grown that deep of a connection to Jo that we feel like she even earns the title in the first place. Like Arris said. We need more information on why she earns the title in the first place.
@@kappadarwin9476 but in order to be a good Detective you need training right? You can't have something like a phone and people will call you smart, no you need to go to school, just like that, this new Green Lantern can't be the greatest detective in the multiverse by just having a ring
This rant is so correct. They messed up a lot of things with this comic. Absolutely forgetting the original and best heroes accomplishments in the DC universe is something fans just don’t agree with.
Literally doesn’t matter because it’s its a two issue series and DC goes back to their regular comics in March.
@@redbullet8807 yeah I guess you’re right.
Comics are becoming too political
@@MistaAwen yep... DC getting Woke in their comics now
@@MistaAwen how was this comic political?
"This isn't your dads justice league"
That's the problem
Then they get taken out the next day. Problem solved. lol
As a chef, I agree with the amount of salt in this video.
😂😂😂
I wish Damian Wayne was Batman in this series, his chemistry between him and Jon as always been a good read.
You mean Jon?
@@pickedceasar1216 my mistake, sorry.
I would have LOVED that
It would have been great to see Damian Wayne as Batman in the Future State timeline. How do you think he would get along with this new team?
Where Damian went??
Arris you don't have to be sorry for the rant, I think most of us fans would agree with you about that point
The fact that you’re salty is completely understandable. I feel like the intention of presenting these characters as better than their predecessors is a poor attempt at making them interesting or forcing them onto a pedestal for which they haven’t earned. Similar to a Mary Sue.
I give more props to Young Justice and the Titans.
I don't understand why they pick Tim fox as Batman? There are better candidates like tim, dick or damian.
@@mangkubi it's a woke decision not a logical one
@Tanner Hutchings how sway
The only thing that is interesting about this series is Yara being so damn beautiful.
I must agree. A very well drawn character. Not that the old Wonder Woman was a hag but damn I love this new ones look!
The fact that she's a better detective than Tim Drake is already a huge stretch at best
They disrespected my mans homie, The Batman.
fr
How
Not really
@@jukilllsss2854 wdym how?? Batman's had over 8 decades to prove why he's the best and this new GL comes out of nowhere and is suddenly the best🙄 its just like Captain Marvel in the MCU being the new powerhouse over Thor, it's just not right😪
@@Wavy932 awe ok that makes sense I think entertainment companies have no patience anymore as far as building things, so everything is forced and pushed to the moon immediately
Looking at this makes me look forward to another reboot in another 2-3 years..
Weird reading this in 2023
All I want to know is what the heck happened to Damien Wayne's Batman and why we got Tim Fox's Batman. I was really digging the dynamic between Jon and Damien.
I KNOW!
Wasn't the dynamic already screwed up when they stupidly aged up Jon to rush things?
@Olsen Ciuni damien is half middle eastern they can easily make him dark and they should. Plus it makes sense since all the robins look the same making one different in skin colour makes a lotta sense.
The whole claim of “she is the best detective” or he is the best Batman really turns me off, no proof only statements, while in the future Batman series vigilantes/ masked people are being hunted by the magistrate, I call baloney!
Wait for the story to unfold, this is just issue 1. They never said he was the best batman either, they said he 'truely' saved Gotham. That might mean he killed off or permanently incapacitated batman's rogues gallery, we dont know. Let's wait for more issues.
No Batman has been stated to truly save Gotham so no dc is saying he's the best Batman.
It’s that sjw agenda
Yea its supposed to intrigue you and make you wonder how that's possible. I think they're going to go into it soon
@@howlthehell9791 oh god, don't bring that weird shit onto this channel. You can criticize characters and writing without trying to bring identity and weird shit like that into it.
I appreciated the rant cuz I feel
The same way bout everything
this new run feels like a CW show
I'm getting less "Fifth Element"-more "Janelle Monae" from this Green Lantern. Js
Sounds like the Justice League is full of a bunch of Captain Marvel
Truly the worst. At least jon is the only dc character hss been in comics in just a few or more years, especially one of my favorite comics DCeased.
What does that even mean
Yeah. Stupid sjw crap
My favorite part is when he started ranting, I wholeheartedly agree.
Reminds of when marvel introduced that new character that was smarter than reed richards (?) lol
W H A T
@@thechump2377 Amadeus Cho?
No
RiRi?
Your rant is perfectly justified. I totally agree with you. It’s like a slap in the face to the original characters and the fans.
When this guy rants about something you know it's got issues.
Ikr? XD
She is the best in the MULTIVERSE. You truly need to think about that one and it is then when you will see how wrong he is! There truly is a first for everything, isn't there! Let me give you all a hint. Stephen Strange was the best Sorcerer before he was even a Sorcerer. He also gained most of his experience in battle in a "single time frame" (which means that 1 day for Wong was actually the equivalent to years for Strange) against Dormammu.
@@ShowheenGuy so??? what are you saying??? Dr. Strange was not introduced as the best sorcerer, he was introduced as master of black magic and later only got his origin story, still he wasn't called the best but ancient one was still alive. Latdr only as time passed he became sorcerer supreme after learning from the ancient one and taking his title sorcerer supreme. Also looks like the one you said was the MCU's storyline but still there are minor differences like strange wasn't a prodigy, he didn't even know the ancient one was magical until one after some time seeing him driving away a spirit, the battle with Dormamu came much much later in his career.
@@ShowheenGuy it's like you ignored his whole argument. But even taking your example, sorcerers are a secret society on Earth. No other planets. And only few people are sorcerers. So it's really not a stretch that an atheist and unorthodox neurosurgeon that learned magic and shifted his full dedication from medicine to magic would then come to be sorcerer supreme.
.
Really not the same as some human teenage girl we just met just happens to be the greatest detective in the multiverse. Of all the many detectives on each of the planets, many with years of dedication and experience. And she's the best detective just because she is. And especially because we already have other characters that are very outstanding detectives. Really not the same.
He is arguing that experience outweighs talent and skill. I understand that achievements may entitle somebody as "great, greater, or greatest," but again, you're all missing and ignoring my rebuttal, which is that quality > quantity. You are all thinking and working backwards, beginning from 'in the moment' to the past. But what about the future!?
I would prefer if Damian or dick was the new Batman and at this point of time shouldn’t Tim drake been know as the best detective and it feels weird to jump straight into this without getting to read how they save the world and join together. It writing terms show don’t tell
Tim and Damian are too white to be Batman now. Totes not racist but that's how DC sees it now.
@@michaelmacleod6517 dick doesn’t wanna be Batman and neither does Damian lol
@@tymon39 That’s why Tim makes the most sense.
@@michaelmacleod6517 they should of used Cass then. Best fighter in the batfam so why not her.
@@adrianivashkov4242 ya, Cass talk less which a lot like bat character.
Saying this new character is the best detective is like saying Rey is the most powerful force wielder.
I see they are taking the Star Trek Discovery route of making them the best ever no questions asked.
Discovery was cool and all but- These new fans will believe ANYTHING put in front of them. Anybody wanna buy a bridge? I've got 2 of them. One in Manhattan and the other in California.
Completely agree with you. You can't just drop stuff like this and expect us to believe you.
If it takes place decades into the future p, it’s plausible within the context of the story.
@@jasonlee2438 the problem is they haven't proven themselves yet and only had a few issues. Their stories aren't even fleshed out yet. And DC they know if this fails they will try to sweep all of this under a rug and create another crisis event that brings things to another new status quo, wasting everyone's time getting attached to these characters.
I thought I’d like future state but, yeah no
Yea like Jon I miss the old justice league
No way after this video
@@oneaboveallferrarifan2725 Jon is the only good part of it all
And this is why comics are slowly failing. People want them to do something different but when they do everyone bitches. So then they get forced to just retexture old arcs with the same characters.
@@clonecommander2600 that’s what’s scary, the other characters are bringing him down with them,hopefully he doesn’t lose popularity, I’m loving Dceased DeadPlanet John, really shows how he can be the greatest superman going forward
When you were naming off other great detectives, you forgot to mention Rorschach, lol. One of my favorites.
He's kind of more of just a normal psycho
he isn't really DC tho, but nice callout since he is technically cannon
Green Lantern is giving off Janelle Monae vibes.
I feel that! Lol
This Green Lantern looks like Janelle Monáe
I love the salty rant starting at 5:21!
5:26 arris we both agree who is the most greatest detective in history, the dark knight himself batman
I love your explanation on who is considered the "best" at what they do in comics. I agree completely with your logic and I'm one of those that end up rejecting a character when they pop up out of no where with no source material on abilities and suddenly are considered the best over legacy characters who have decades of stories with them pulling off the impossible
I see Aris has earned his red lantern ring and gave into the rage
I just want a red lantern omnibus reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
He embodies every DC fan's rage
@@redassassinyt4908 marvel fans too, did you see New New Warriors?
Horrendous
@@ComicBookGuy420 LOL Marvel did the same thing again with the “Children Of Atom”
I felt your rant was well within reason.
No it wasn't? It was just fan boying like a child. "Wahhhh the og characters are supposed to be the best! Wahhhh"
Why would you want these new characters be bargain bin versions of the previous ones? They are building off the ones that came before. They SHOULD be better than them.
It'd be factually shit writing if they pander to that whiney entitled attitude. If everything had to be punctuated with, "kent lifts a massive amount of weight on his shoulders, like his father before him. But but oh don't worry, clark is still stronger". Or "a brilliant detective, but of course only second best" lmfao. Like come. On.
And it DOES make narrative sense. They've been doing this a long long time already. We just haven't seen those stories. This takes place, where these characters are already WELLL established in their roles.
@@bobdylan1968 imma go ahead and tell you bob. Nobody is gonna read that. Especially if you’re defending this bull😂😂 and you can’t complain and say he’s fanboying like a child then leave a whole essay
@@bobdylan1968 we haven’t seen any of them grow only Superboy
@@bobdylan1968 “we just haven’t seen those stories” that’s exactly his point they just shove it down your throat without saying why they are the best you cant just spend 50+ years establishing and developing a character to their peak just to turn and around make someone with only a month of progress and say they’re better in my opinion they should have developed them more individually before making these claims and such.
@@AsteriusAetosSonOfTheDawn they have their own separate comics! Gah!
This probably happens when you are truly in a rush to do things and you forget about everything the other characters have experienced and you just blatantly stamp a "best in the multiverse" tag without second thoughts.
"You even become a hero or live long enough to become a villain and have hankerin for some Choko Crunch cereal!"
So the justice league is recognized around the world but Batman is illegal in his own city? Did the writers of Arrow write this issue?
Actually justice league takes place after the next batman.
So basically he possibly stops the magistrate? Or is the comic out already ?
These comics are set in different years.
That is just plain confusing. It is bad for readers, so basically now we know Batman did not die?
Exactly that’s why they should’ve released in chronological order
They forgot to add SECOND, to her being the best detective. They're putting the truly first batman to shame.
Just him? You talk like Tim Drake, Chimp, both incarnations of the Question and Constantine aren't a thing!
Arris was right in this review, there have been so many characters with literal decades of material to proof how good they are at what they are doing. You can't just create a new character and declare it to be the best at something just after a story when so much established history already exists, especially if that very history disproves the point. Show don't tell, than you earn the title!
Not to mention that kinda implies that Bats 2.0 ain't as good in the detective role. If that's the case though, how the hell did he save Gotham exactly? And how does Batman Beyond fit in all of this?
@@MacBamboocha Yeah those are great too, but Batman is the one that shines the most, with being " Worlds greatest detective" But they're still awesome, question being my second favorite
@@MortalScorp I'm not saying Batman ain't the best, don't get me wrong please! :) My point is DC is filled to the brim with amazing detective stories and characters. What they did with this Green Lantern is a slap to the face to all of them, not just our beloved Brucy boy!
She got *_A LOT_* to proof now, and if the writing is at the level of this new book, well... I doubt she ever will.
@@MacBamboocha really do agree. The detectives in DC are amazing.
@@MortalScorp Batman asks Detective Chimp for help from time to time.
In terms of pure deductive skills, Chimp might be better than Bruce; Bruce just has the tech that allows him to gather information faster and better.
Arguably, Detective Chimp is the greatest Detective in DC.
So why isn’t Daimen Wayne the new batman? And I agree with your rant wholeheartedly.
Yeah fr. It was even set up in Grant Morrison’s Batman #666
What a breath of fresh air. Arris has an actual critique!❤️
The DC you knew will not be the one you know
Good
That's the point. Things change. Either they freshen up or get left behind. Comic fans always plead for change but once it comes lots of them hate on it.
@@lt2672 not all change is good change.
@@lt2672 the problem is dc or comic books in general don't change or commit to it at all or screw it up in the process. Like they are either ignoring or screwing all the legacy characters (Wally West for example) and even the new ones make another desperate attempt again. Heck they don't even commit to their own new characters and rely on the old ones to point of the stories becoming stagnant.
@@lt2672 this was an attempt at “freshening up” that completely fails solely because they were too scared to make a completely new IP that isn’t related to the old, already established and complete IP.
They played it safe, and it failed miserably
Show, Don't Tell is the golden rule of storyteling
5:15 to 7:33 is a great part Arris explains how superheroes we have grown fond of have become what they are today! Great explanation!
Thank you so much for the great video Arris
Yes he mention Batman beyond Terry mcginnis he will always be my batman of the future.
Batman of "Issue 1,000,000" comes to mind.
@@sbyrstall Personally after reading some of future state and the next batman it feels like a love letter to marvel 2099. With the magistrate being akin to marvel public eye.
@@andrewpenny4676 not a love letter, more of a rip off
Anyone wanna tell me why Damian didn't take up the cowl? He did so in DCeased and already has established chemistry with Jon
Because that would be too predictable.
If you’ve been keeping up with what’s been going on in Batman comics lately, you’d know that Damian is not on the best terms with Bruce right now.
I don’t have problem with Tim Fox but why he can’t be a completely new batman on his own way. Why he has to act like Bruce?
I don’t have problem with Tim Fox but why he can’t be a completely new batman on his own way. Why he has to act like Bruce?
@@chienvu8144 Batman is a mantle, it can be passed down.
The spirit of Jack Johnson smiles upon this future universe. They was mad he was better than everyone before him too...🤷🏿
thank you for being our voice Arris!
They’re really tryna force these characters onto trying to hard to make us like them which is back firing

@@Red-nz6li i think thats the point. They want us to wonder how tf theyre saying these things and the story will show a lot later on or something
Who else thought it was gonna be the kid version of the justice league 😂😂
And its
I did
I wish DC was more creative like no batman, superman and wonderwoman, i mean they are the same ... why flash keep like flash, i hope they change characters like a grumpy flash or a grouchy flash, or leader flash ahaha it will be very interesting
@@korozom sometimes I wish I they’d push other teams into the spot light like titans, young justice or outsiders
You are The G!! Way to stand up and educate seriously awesome
Great episode love the new style of storytelling for the next generation of comic book readers
The salty mini-rant was very cathartic. I needed that.
Personally I think Jon’s costume would look better if it had cape.
I disagree, this look makes him more...original?

It's really dumb that they didn't make new characters and instead chose to reskin old ones
And then people wanna defend it like it isn't just the old characters but with a different coat of paint
I would've loved brand new characters
Not just Justice League but with every race and gender
@@TORRIE. they are new characters. It's just the same LEGACY. And DC has ALWAYS been huge on legacy characters.
Loved the rant!!
My my that rant of yours was a nice change of pace, really made my day and bonus I agree with you.
The Janelle Monae GL being crowned the best detective in the Multiverse and the new Batman being hailed as Gotham's messiah for no discernable reason other than someone at DC "says so"? Ah...Rey Skywalker would approve.
Edit: You can tell this really gets under Arris' skin because his hand gestures become more agitated.
Rey was never deemed the best Jedi or anything tho everything she does besides flying we know she learned from Leia or Luke. Anikan and Luke were also good at flying and obi wan even tho he hated flying. But she’s a girl so rant on
@@djstylegaming1398 pretty sure it has nothing to do because she’s a girl but because she’s a poorly written character
@@djstylegaming1398 It has nothing to do with her being a girl. We never get to see why she's good at what she's good at. The only things that would make sense based off of how she was introduced would be engineering for decades old ships, survival, and basic fighting. Her being somewhat on level with Kylo makes absolutely no sense and that's what people have an issue with.
This is 15 years after Tim dons the cowl so there's plenty of time to save the Gotham.
I also don't have a problem with Jo being the best detective in the multiverse. The new generations tend to surpass the old ones.
@@lt2672 But this is (sort of) their first appearance and they use it to tell us that these characters are better than the previous characters, the characters that their target audience loves. Why would anyone think that putting down characters your target audience likes to prop up your new characters is a good idea?
Loving the Saltiness.. very true points
The Social Justice League
Your a terrible person for saying that.
@@iamnotawfulanymore3873 no u
This JL looks like they could be defeated by a sexist joke.
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣Damn
That is cold 😂
😂😂😂
When i get older, I'll tell my chidren that Bruce Wayne is the best detective and the best Batman of all times.
The only Batman. Amazon lets anyone buy a suit these days...
They way he explained "who is the best detective" or "who fully saved Gotham"? Made me back this video up like wow!
I hit PAUSE II - And exactly how was that achieved? It's a slap in the face to the source material and fans.
Love the rant, need more of that. Best episode ever!! lol
It is rare is see Arris critique a book this hard, and I can't help with every point he is bringing up. What is it with these writers making new characters that are suddenly supposed to be best in their field when there has been characters around for decades who have done the same work?
Because this comic takes place in the future where either the previous heroes are MIA or retired and these new guys are at a point where they’re at the peak of their careers.
First time i ever saw Arris getting worked up about a superhero and the best part is that it's totally justified and relatable
He is actually wrong! They're saying it themselves. THE MULTIVERSE. Has Marvel and Dr. Strange taught you all nothing!
Nice video
Thanks for the info
Love the little rant😁🔥🔥🔥
"Tell me, and I'll forget.
Show me, and I might remember.
Involve me, and I'll understand. "
I will never know why Damien didn’t become the new batman
I almost feel like they introduced and set damien up to take over the mantle, and then said “mmmm never mind”. now that’s my take based on being a part time reader, not a fully involved reader. so I may be wrong. but that’s my take after following damien wayne for a couple years.
@@lorenzogonzales4239 Damien Wayne has had a lot of backlash tbh. Everyone says that he’s annoying and pretty bad, so I guess that’s one reason why he didn’t take on the mantle.
@@hinatashoyo1748 I hope when they meet they fight xd
@@hinatashoyo1748 but they did gave damian pretty good character development,he seems to be a mash of Grayson and Jason
I don't think Bruce would want that, though introducing an unknown batman out of the blue seems stupid . Why not just make the new guy Damian's son/daughter? They could make a storyline where they meet with Bruce and has a heartfelt moment.
All I need is for the new lantern to say is “are we green” 🤣
I appreciate the "rant" cause there's been some issues over the years that vexed alotta fans and Arris put em in "let's see how it pans out" category...thanks for saying how d fans feel.
DC: *gets woke and loses money*
Fans: Stop ruining our beloved characters and stories
DC: *does it again*
Fans: How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?
I wouldn’t call this being “woke”, just a bad example of telling instead of showing. But hey that’s just me, everyone’s entitled to their own opinions after all
I like the fact that they are starting something new.
the problem isn’t “getting woke” the problem is, always has been, and always will be cheap/lazy/uninspired storytelling
Shits just lazy, make new characters of different races and genders. Just swapping existing ones is a slap in the face to their fans.
@@mansaurus_wrex sure about? tokenism stikes again.

Nice shirt! I liked the point you made at 5:24
Isn’t that just a pompadour not exactly the only two people to have that haircut
7:31 no Arris don’t apologize! We need more of your raw honest opinions! I completely agree with you
You were right to rant. I agree with you.
Also can you please do an origin/history video on the Hyper Clan?
Loved the rant!!! Straight facts!!!
Hey bruce is the best detective in the omniverse not the universe also let's not forget that mr terrific and with some of the other big guns now operate multiversal now apparently
This comic in a nutshell,
Making Bruce Wayne batman look bad
And we all know what's the real goal there...
Man we love your rants and your personal thoughts keep doing that 🙏🏼 and too many new characters can't relate that much in time where people attention span is similar to of a goldfish so it worked in the past for flash and green lantern but I skeptical for them should have gone with least similar characters or should have surrounded with them.
Thank you Arris!!! I was literally thinking exactly about your rant! Truly justified!!!
Thumbs up for the rant, valid points
Also 10:20, hilarious
Second person, Variant nation, where the likes at, this future justice league is a trip.
Perfectly said in your rant
Mr. Quinones of Variant Comics, even though I'm a mix of various nationality including a couple of minorities, it doesn't take away my appreciation for the source material of various comics both DC and Marvel that began with (let's be honest) strictly white superheroes! Sure, later on they introduced some token minority characters almost as an afterthought, but it was never their intention to highlight anyone who wasn't their own skin color or gender, even Mr. Disney turned away women from trying to work with him, it was a crazy time. But now it's like the pendulum is swinging the other way, and they're all bending over backwards to out do each other, and prove that they're more tolerant than anyone else. Is it surprising that a black female Green Lantern is the best detective in the multiverse, or that a black Batman is the first Batman to truly save Gotham? No, not when all that matters is showing that they're more woke than anyone else! Frankly, I find this whole matter disgusting! First we didn't even exist, we were completely invisible, and now we're the best and the greatest, go figure. It's insane! By making these characters so, "Mary Sue" it's almost as if the comic book companies themselves were doing everything they could to purposely make us, the general public, hate these new minority characters, like they wanted these characters to fail on purpose? Is that why they write them as upstarts supplanting our already favorite characters? Makes you wonder huh?
I think that future state is a great opportunity to try out diverse new characters. We know that this is likely a non-canon future. It's certainty is around the same as that Terry Batman's canon. Totally cool with me. Flash and GL in this canon is cool in my opinion. But Black Batman and Brazilian Yara felt painfully artificial to me since we already have legacy characters who can fit like Tim, Damien, and Cassie. The potential for a Jon-Damien dynamic is painfully sacrificed just so that we can have Tim Fox.
@@yiklongtay6029 DC will introduce characters of color as a diversity ploy but never fully develop them. wish they chose damien for batman, he woulda still been a diverse choice as he is half arab but writers always whitewash him and talia
Love this channel definitely my top 3
Can you do a video on the elongated man?
100% with your thoughts Arris🙏
Arris, thanks for pointing this out. The subject of your critique is justified. In fact, this would be a sore spot for any professional fiction writer or novelist, because it breaks the #1 universal rule of all good fiction writing: don't say it, show it! The fact that you mention it shows that somewhere in the back of your head, you have acquired an understanding some of the basic for what makes quality literature. Bravo!
