Engineers, builders, space jockeys (the latter will always be my choice because of the dark horse comics runs they had in the very late 80s and early to mid 90s which were NIGHTMARE FUEL! Aside from William Gibson’s alien 3 script, there were at least two others, and there was what you could call and alien 3, following the events of aliens, albeit with newt being Billy and ripley under a name i forgot but hicks I think stayed the same name wise , and the story was absolutely killer! If you want to see how insane the dark horse, now Disney owned stories go; Dr. church. Anything with his character and especially his origin story. I PROMISE it will stay in your brain every time you think of aliens from now on 😂😂😂😂
@comics_explained do you do this all from memory - or do you have the comic in front of you or like at least read or re-read it before a new video? Sometimes it feels like it's something you read months/years ago and that memory is so impressive
"Where's Doctor Doom in all of this?" Literally the first question I had from the first issue. There is NO way he's going to take this laying down, And the Xeno got Valeria, he's going to want all kinds of revenge after this.
it's a breath of fresh air to see the hulk being not just a hero but one of humanities last bastions of heroics instead of an instrument of the end in an apocalyptic marvel story. they always default the green giant to villainy when the end strikes.
I'm not an artist at all, but getting into comics, he is one of the ones that stood out to me instantly. Even just the advertisement for this series (cover of issue one)... But he's one that I can pick out pretty well like Bryan Hitch, Marc Silvestri...
Any anyone else prefer Rob's voice like this than being super crazy hype? Like don't get me wrong it's great and he is super animated but this voice is super chill... takes me back to the earlier days of the channel.
Back in the 70's comics were almost part of our daily lives I would sit and read crates and crates of comics and simply be in AWE at the artistry and the storylines which I believe so many young people miss out on using their imagination. The HULK was always a favorite but he has evolved over the years as with so many characters. I HATE when they mutilate an original character by changing gender and personality but I came here to say I'm 55 and I listen to this channel all the time. I ADMIRE this man's dedication and how he dives into the Dc/Marvel worlds. I cannot say that I have ever in this life had such a passion as this man does and I hope that I find it.
Great vid! This is one of the few Marvel stories in recent years which has genuine twists and turns and real stakes. Love the art and it feels like Hickman is enjoying getting his teeth into this yarn!
Imagine the Xenomorphs have infected Mars, but they've only gotten mutants like Beak and Maggot. All the mutants with useful powers went even farther away when Chuck called in a favor from his space-beau.
One cerebellum alien tap, Franklins done. These Aliens have vastly increased durability on par with a alloyed titanium given just how many heroes we don't see (she-hulk, Ghost Rider, Rhino, Thing, etc) and even 'invulnerability' can be watered done just by sheer numbers.
I didn't buy the issue and thought the title was sappy but seeing Rob's review of this issue, storyline and art, I'm going to have to pick up this series digitally. It's good art and great story telling, without sacrificing Avenger's credibility. Mahalo Rob for enlightening this old Marvel fan.
This is a ridiculous story. The Xenomorphs could kill normal humans, sure. And they could kill some of the more squishy superheroes like Spiderman, Daredevil, Cyclops, etc. But there is absolutely NOTHING they could do against someone even like Luke Cage, let alone someone like Colossus, Hulk, Thing, The Sentry, Thor, She-Hulk, Juggernaut, etc. They just wouldn't stand even the SLIGHTEST chance. Hell, Magneto could destroy whole legions of them with a wave of his hand. Same with Phoenix. There's just no way that this story makes ANY sense at all.
@NeterRafi77 Sentry is. Juggernaut is. Thor DEFINITELY is. She-Hulk may be. Thing is certainly very long-lived. I don't know about Luke Cage, but probably not. Regardless, the most powerful Marvel heroes and villains are either immortal or very long-lived, and they'd all EASILY stop a Xenomorph invasion. Hell, Scarlett Witch could just say, "No more Xenomorphs", and it's over. And Hulk? He'd LAUGH at these things. Hulk ALONE could stop a Xenomorph invasion. This is a stupid and ridiculous story.
Lets not even forget Carnage who would bitch and possess even the Xenomorphs probably. Then theres Wolverine, Deadpool, Sabretooth all who which have insane healing factors and Wolverine and Sabretooth having keener senses of smells and reflexes who would ALSO brutalize them to the point their exhaustion would be tested. Tony? Can have his suits go freaking autopilot and scour the globe killing each and every damn xenomorph hive with the simplest Unibeam ever. NEED I MENTION SILVER SUFER!?!?!?
@@stormhawk31crossovers like these aren’t meant to be scrutinized and nit picked bud. Especially when you’re trying to compare it to other versions of the characters, this is a self contained universe with different heroes. These aren’t the strongest versions of the characters, idk if you noticed but they’re all old for the most part. This story just isn’t for you
14:16 I think Tony & friends may be the infectious matter the xenomorphs were meant to clean up. They’re created & already accounted for. The only outside variable is the Avengers.
This is has been the only video series that I have seriously been on edge when watching. I'm a fan of comics and Rob... But, this Marvel-Aliens give me chills.
I’m betting that Mars is already going to be full of Mutant Xenomorphs. They’ll talk about the first ones taking Wolverine, and how he became an incubator for Xenos with healing factors. It was just a matter of time after that, before they got everyone but probably Magneto, and a few others. Magneto sacrifices himself, as they escape Mars. 😆
Cool idea, but wouldn't Wolverine's healing factor kill the Xeno embryo before it would develop? His healing factor kills parasites and diseases. Amd then...good luck bursting out of an adamantium ribcage and guts that heal as fast as they try to tear through. But it would still be cool.
@@Ksizzle11c Potentially powers that are physically apparent, like wings or claws. Not the same, but the playable alien in MKX has the abilities of Baraka, implying that after chest bursting him, it got his claws.
11:45 Yeah. Cap fighting the good fight till the end is glorious. He was only missing the super cheesed out shot on a rock gripping the flag & bucking a few off into some brain matter. 😂
To be honest, any character with a basic healing factor, would go absolutely berserk on xenomorphs, especially if they’re on a planet and have no worry about burning into space
@@shadowsonicsilver6 They can absolutely damage him but they literally have no way of killing him, I mean this guy has survived universe ending blows not to mention his insane healing factor that allows him to heal from anything and everything that damages him including him getting all his body tissue erased from existence, I don't see hulk dying in this run maybe getting injured but that is temporary for someone like the hulk, plus he has access to the green door so even if he dies he would eventually just come back and he is literally the golden child of TOBA,TOAA.
I remember the idea of crossovers in comics being epic in potential but the "for the sake of the story" for these crossovers kill the enjoyment for me. I have a hard time believing Hulk (among MANY MANY super powered heroes) would dare struggle against Xenomorphs. They can barely handle colonial marines. Hulk does One seismic clap, Xenos go bye bye quick fast and in a hurry
@@NeterRafi77Oh shut up. It’s the third best Alien Movie in the entire Franchise Edit: I was thinking Romulus nvm I take back what I said. And say it’s the 4th best. AVP AVP 2 Alien 3 Alien 4 And Prometheus are all worse than Covenant.
Comic. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to make these. Not everyone gets the chance to listen to these but us lucky ones do. Thank you for making these. We all love you man. ❤
The fact that this version of hulk can easily take molecular acid like nothing means that his durability it's at least on an atomic level which is crazy
Marvel Comics at it’s best story telling. Captain America Steve Rogers in gray beard wearing the colors of the American Flag leading the last survivors of humanity while being chased by a horde of Alien xenomorphs. Captain America makes a stand and hurls his shield over and over again against oncoming Aliens. Bruce Banner could escape on rocketship with Tony Stark and decides to leave safety of rocket and turns into the Hulk and jumps down to battle with Captain America. Steve Rogers turns to see the explosion as the Hulk is unleashed and begins tearing apart Aliens. An iconic comic image of Hulk and Captain America making a last stand on Earth fighting for humanity against wave after wave of Alien xenomorphs. I almost teared up seeing my two favorite Marvel Heroes Hulk and Captain America fighting side by side againtst overhwhelming odds against rampaging Alien xenomorphs! A true epic Avengers storyline becoming an instant classic by writer Jonathan Hickman and artist Esad Ribic.
I am glad you mentioned said horse earth war. That has been one of my favorite Alien storylines. There has been a theory that when it comes to the Engineers, that there is more than meets the eye (literally). Some fans, myself included, believe their black eyes is due to them having modified and fast forward their evolution to the point of them seeing different dimensions. We know they used the good to do this. And since they could have seeded different life in their universe, maybe they seeded life in other universes.
Staying in sync with the story and what they have provided so far, I believe Black Panther will arrive soon with his son and save Cap, Hulk and the remaining survivors and take them to Mars or where ever Stark is going, if they know. This is an outstanding story! Marvel is not short on excellent story content. Why this doesn't translate onto the big screen is beyond me. I greatly appreciate your telling of these great story's Rob, you literally bring more life to them by filling in gaps and or questions we may have! Keep up the great work, I'm lifelong Fan of your work!
At this moment I just got back from a delivery in Orlando super ironic to hear you say that when I watch your videos all the time! Hope you enjoy yourself welcome to Florida if you’ve never been!
4:28 it’s not only because Tony Stark is a genius intellect, it’s because Stark has had the experience of Marvel comics since 1963 in publication timeline. They battle millions of different threats from the Cree, skulls, secret wars, and stuff. I would say that these alien folks are way out of their league in one sense.
14:16 thing that this work has that makes it good is the artwork pacing with the story. One thing that we hope that Hickman would be able to do is to leave the Hulk and Captain America’s fate unknown. Also leave what happened to the villain apocalypse and have their fate unknown I disagree with trying to have Dr. doom in this story. He’s being overused and marvel. Shouldn’t try to ram him into everything.
This story is nuts. I keep thinking back to Prometheus where humanity was searching for their creators and stumbled upon the Engineers as being their Gods, but then you transition to Marvel where the Celestials take on the same role as the Engineers in that regard. So in a sense, David is more akin to Ultron than anything else while the Engineers are akin to the Celestials. I would love to see David and Ultron team up or see the Engineers take on Celestials.
In comic book reality “These xenomorphs are dangerous but I’ve notice that the more different the strain of xenomorph they will kill each other “ “Also automated guns enhance with magic protection exist because it’s kinda easy to buy a coffee for a wizard, help him move his couch in and ask for favours “
I bet there’s a someone on that ship who is smuggling an egg, black goo, or a chestburster and that’s how Mars gets infested by Xenos. I wouldn’t be shocked if Xenos snuck in and overran the ship on its way to Mars leaving no one left.
MANNN LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING MAN, IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE AND NOW THAT PART 2 HAS DROPPED THIS HAS MADE MY DAY! edit: GODDAMN NOW WE HAVE TO WAIT TILL FEBRUARY?? 😭
1. Hulk is immortal he can't die 2. Even if the acid blood burns him as he gets angrier he gets stronger more powerful he can adapt to it so he can (i know he is) be immune to it. 3. Hulk has fought gods, god killers, beat thanos, lifted mountains, swam an entire island to the nearest hospital. It's like the writers don't know the Hulk anymore.
Hulk would destroy a whole planet of xenomorphs and walk off without a problem. Whatever little damage their acid would do to him would heal in an instant.
Just for your information and not to get the lore confused - that race that is wiped out by David, are NOT Engineers. Those are a race created by the Engineers (like Humans were), but they were just closer to them as far as features go. Seems the Marvel writers didn't do enough research on that one either tbh lol
A terrifying possibility would be if the Xenomorphs managed to capture mutants like Wolverine and Deadpool. Due to their healing factor, they can be repeatedly get infected by facehuggers. Thus creating an army of unkillable Xenomprhs.
I really wish marvel would stop pushing Captain Marvel and Fake Spider-Kid. These 2 characters don't sell Peter Parker would have added so much more to this story giving the fact he is a legit science genius
I’m assuming the implication is that these versions of the xenomorphs are enhanced, as regularly even Spider-Man would be able to kill an entire army of them alone (and we see even a face hugger was able to outspeed miles).
They knew they couldn't show the start of this story bc it makes no sense. Doom, Thor, magneto, and other big hitters could and would wipe out a whole nest solo
0:51 I thought they were called Engineers not builders?
Yeah, they are. I had Hickman’s Avengers on the brain lol
Now what, now that we know Rob meant engineers and not builders, what do we do next?
Engineers, builders, space jockeys (the latter will always be my choice because of the dark horse comics runs they had in the very late 80s and early to mid 90s which were NIGHTMARE FUEL!

This garbage is what editors in the 70's and 80's were worried would kill comics. Of course modern audiences eat it up, they hate heroes.

I kind of like the more quite and relaxed Rob.
Quite what? 🤔
He should go back to recapping stories like this instead of power scaling: power rangers goes big bang blah blah

Dude what?! You were at EDC Orlando?! I just had a blast there! Yoooo
The black goo that makes the Xenomorphs that David was experimenting with is a prototype to the perfective serum which is the symbiots.
80's X-Men already had something like the Xenos called The Brood.
This story is amazing! Damn! I love Hickman’s work!
It’s going to be interesting to see where the story goes

Let them take all the time they need! I love this story!!!
Been waiting for this
MANNN LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING MAN, IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE AND NOW THAT PART 2 HAS DROPPED THIS HAS MADE MY DAY!
edit: GODDAMN NOW WE HAVE TO WAIT TILL FEBRUARY?? 😭
SON SON SON IVE BEEN WAITING TOO LONG FOR THIS
@@insert6190 NOW WE HAVE ANOTHER LONG WAIT AHEAD OF US DAMN IT 😩
I hope Apocalypse makes another appearance, he's the reason I'm buying this title.
When Rob reads “Launch” it was bone chilling
1. Hulk is immortal he can't die
2. Even if the acid blood burns him as he gets angrier he gets stronger more powerful he can adapt to it so he can (i know he is) be immune to it.
3. Hulk has fought gods, god killers, beat thanos, lifted mountains, swam an entire island to the nearest hospital.
It's like the writers don't know the Hulk anymore.
The Hulk vs a million aliens.
Poor aliens.
Hulk would destroy a whole planet of xenomorphs and walk off without a problem. Whatever little damage their acid would do to him would heal in an instant.
You're here for EDC? Thank goodness, I was worried about what I would wear. Now I have a ring to look forward to. 😉
Just for your information and not to get the lore confused - that race that is wiped out by David, are NOT Engineers. Those are a race created by the Engineers (like Humans were), but they were just closer to them as far as features go. Seems the Marvel writers didn't do enough research on that one either tbh lol
Such a dope story.
Let's GOOOOO I been waiting for this
A terrifying possibility would be if the Xenomorphs managed to capture mutants like Wolverine and Deadpool. Due to their healing factor, they can be repeatedly get infected by facehuggers. Thus creating an army of unkillable Xenomprhs.
I really wish marvel would stop pushing Captain Marvel and Fake Spider-Kid. These 2 characters don't sell
Peter Parker would have added so much more to this story giving the fact he is a legit science genius
i LOVE the art style in the comic! where can i get this comic book?...
This series is so fire man
The Hulk in Hulk comics: the strongest there is. The Hulk in end of the world comics: dies to some acidy bois or a bunch of cockroaches
ABSOLUTE WONDERWOMAN
I’m assuming the implication is that these versions of the xenomorphs are enhanced, as regularly even Spider-Man would be able to kill an entire army of them alone (and we see even a face hugger was able to outspeed miles).
Rob I’ve been seeing a bunch of posts about ultimates #6 or something you can cover it looked cool.
Omg please let this have Dr.Doom. I just wanna hear him having a monologue about how he himself would not be taken down by such poor creatures
"The only reason hulks fighting aliens is when he signed up he thought they meant illegal aliens."
The REAL question is, where is THE BROOD?!
This is awesome ❤❤
Welcome to Orlando Brother🎉👍
it'll be THE coolest thing if dr. doom, hulk, cap and apocalypse is still alive and form a team along side a few others
They knew they couldn't show the start of this story bc it makes no sense. Doom, Thor, magneto, and other big hitters could and would wipe out a whole nest solo
