Yeah, this event aged like milk.
I would love to hear Sal & Co narrate complicated points in history, like the alliances of WW1.
Sal: "So then RUSSIA attacks the AUSTRIANS..."
Ethan: "But why? What did that assassination have to do with Russia?"
Sal: "Because shut up! It just does!"
Ben: "Ah-ha! But the joke's on them because Germany's African colonies are still there!"
Sal: "Maybe. I don't know because I don't read tie-ins."
I would legit watch that show!
Hot Rod Did Nothing Wrong! Same.
this always makes me laugh.
If they actually did that, and did it well, i can easily see it being used in high school history classes.
Honestly i've gotten the feeling that ethan is the history buff of the group

“Oh my god... Alfred’s on drums”
Brendan Shaffer
I died laughing after I heard him say that and it zoomed in on the panel where it showed that! 😂🤣
this comment with minimal context is fantastic
I read this comment before listening to the video and it made me so excited lol
Dude it make sense he's the heart of the bat family drums are the heartbeat of the band
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The sheer AMOUNT of Sal’s sardonic “shut up”s within just the first ten minutes means this will be a FANTASTIC episode
Wait.
This is a Crisis.
This is episode 320.
We somehow got back to the every tenth episode model.
The amount of times Sal dies internally, huffs and closes the book to explain something else is amazing. I love this episode
Batman : I have no hope left
Superman: Hey .... Bro’s before Hero’s Bruce 🤜🏼
Lex: where's that kryptonite when you need it
The Flash: FUCK...... YOU......
Aight, I'm out.
52:30 in that moment, Ben realized his lois in a doomsday costume from Heroes in Crisis was actually canon.
darnell henriquez Ha! #SuperHeroCouplesRolePlay
As Sal said, this comic is the very definition of “Cool until you have to explain it” 😂
"This is why people hate the show"
Lemme stop you right there, you're telling me there's people who can actually NOT like these Golden Bod Golden Gods and the Sorcerer Suqueen? ... No. I can believe Grant Morrison really blew himself, but not this. Suspension of disbelief broken
The fact that Batman never defeated a villain in this with a bat-shaped electric guitar is a damn shame
Grievousish have Batman a rock off against the bat-devil dc make it happen
Batman should've blessed them with his gift of light.
@@mcpics4448 only if Tenacious D write the lyrics
@Twisted Tristan he hated rock at first but then he sits down and learns all of rock and roll in five minutes and hes like... Stoic about it
They eventually did have The Signal do that in Dark Multiverse Metal lol. It should have been Batman in the main event 😂
We must have had something on the lens while shooting this episode. Sorry about the random blurring.
This is something I've been waiting for about a year and a half. I think the Blurring changes nothing! So hyped!
that's okay man it happens
ComicPOP don’t worry about it
Must have been some shrapnel 😉
No biggie happens when everyone is in front of the camera. Even our old friends mike and Jay get the blurs every now and again
*Batman (wearing literal Plot Armor):* "Clark, how many times have you saved the Earth up until now?"
*Superman (also wearing Plot Armor):* "I dunno. About half a dozen times or so."
*Batman:* "Well, don't you think it's about time the Earth saved itself? People of Earth...PUT YOUR HANDS UP TO THE SKY NOW, OR ELSE YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!"
Exactly what I thought lol
Flash: "He's using the spirit batarang!"
Barbatos: "the spirit what now?"
Martian Manhunter: "Shut up!"
Flash: "Can't, too scared!"
Manhunter: "Damnit!"
Better Use that thing that always works
heh. nice call back lol
Goku: "First time?"
I owe so much to this event. I met Scott Snyder at the midnight launch for METAL #6. There, I asked Snyder how to break into the industry and write compelling stories. He told me to write stories that I want to tell. I will never forget that advice. It now applies to everything I do.
PS: Scott came to Fourth World Comics with a cake with the cover of Metal #6 (the one with the Joker dragon) on it in excruciating detail. We each got a slice.
Batfreeze I’ve met Scott and Greg twice. Literally the nicest and most humble creative duo in comics today. And both are always excited to be working in the Industry and so excited to meet fans.
My brother, an artist, once asked Greg that same question and Greg encouraged him to look into a career as a “commercial artist” instead of focusing strictly on comics because it will allow him to hone his craft while also making an income while simultaneously making efforts to land a gig in comics. My brother was so inspired by the advice.
"Batman's coming for your kid, no daycare can protect him." I must've laughed at that for five minutes straight.
I had no idea Batman was a Catholic Priest.
I just red this comment and I am laughing five min straight 🤣
BEN: “One is Electric Blue Superman!”
SAL: “Yeah, because that SUCKS!”
Lmao! 🤣😂🤣
Langley M Neely it’s just electric blue superman 🤣
1:00:50
Sal's interpretations of Snyder and then Bendis gave me "I'm Geoff Johns!" flashbacks. Which is more than I could ever ask for.
funfact, when they told me to design nightwing there... they said, we want a jon snow nightwing XD
I think the best part of this whole event is the evil Batmen tie ins
Me: Why is the last word spoken in this episode Hawkman?
Also me: Because everything is connected to Hawkman..... everything....
*EVERYTHING*
If you can decode Hawkmans backstory, you inherit DC, like the end of Willy Wonka.
These guys are so good, you can come back and enjoy this episode EVEN MORE than you did the first time.
Everything Scott has written after Batman endgame has been too much for me. Every story is so convoluted and ends in a weird way. Greg capullo is top 5 of all time for me though, that’ll keep me around until Scott writes a small intimate personal story again.
Me 20 minutes in: Sal is going to break the record for "shut up, don't ask" isn't he?
1:36:28 "Come with me and you'll be in a world of PURE IMAGINATION...."
When they inevitably make an animated movie out of this, they'd better have an awesome sound track.
If they do it right, it could be a DC version of that Heavy Metal movie.
Sal, I gotta say, I love the longer episodes. I hope they're easier on your end because every time I see 1 hour+ in the time stamp, I'm excited.
1:35:11 I lost it when Ethan was like "He's gonna look AWESOME!!!"
Ethan: Do we go back?
Sal: NO
Ethan: But we always go back?
HAHAHAHAHAHA
1:41:30 this is literally becoming kingdom hearts, I can’t
When you walk away, you don't hear me say "Pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase, oh baby, don't go". Simple and clean is THE WAY THAT YOU'RE-!
@@benparrish672 it’s just needlessly complicated bullshit
@@benparrish672 It’s a final fantasy/ Disney crossover game with a Ridiculously convoluted storyline that’s sort of become the reference point for any plot going all the way up its own ass. “Sounds like kingdom hearts” has essentially become a euphemism for “oh god they’ve really lost their handle on this”.
@@benparrish672 I don't know how you never heard of what Kingdom Heart is.
so if DC wants broader audiences to have more sales, the sequel to this should be:
Dark Nights: K-Pop.
my nieces would instantly pick up these...
I WOULD instantly pick this.
Sal, you are so spot with your takes on Synder's work Dark Nights: Metal and post, where it is just a vehicle that hypes up the next Synder book with out real conclusions just more plot threads, even some of which are unceremoniously abandoned.
This is the perfect Comic pop story. It's confusing enough to have great discussion but has enough cool things and visuals to be intriguing.
1:38:12 The Monitor hostage situation was so crazy they forgot the apt visual!
How embarrassing.
@@comicpop i read that in Mike Stoklasas voice
“Try explaining it to your dad.” - A perfect encapsulation of this channel. Keep up the great work!
I really appreciate and love all of Sal's reactions to this event and comic book story writing in general. Like, the absolute state of comic-writing is most most the time underwhelming/some groundwork but no payoff, but if there is, it's only followed in X years in a mini-series or it just complicates things even more with other established events...
Despite all the confusing continuity elements in this event the one one constant was how awesome Capullo’s artwork is throughout the book. I would seriously spend minutes at a time just staring at all the beautiful artwork.
All this talk about Batman, the comic book families and the like makes me want The Bat and the Furious to be a thing
Ben: "Is he (Barbatos) black?
Me: We get blamed for EVERYTHING.
This is the best comment I’ve read in a while
LOL
🤷🏾♂️💯👍🏾👏🏾
@@nivekleveb8872 cringe?
Lmfao. It's even worse because this story is horrible.
Ah everyone's wishes has been granted at long last
“The Multiverse is Light” ahh I can’t wait for Dark Knights: Metal Final Mix with the super hard Data Dark Justice League fights.
I mean, you're joking, but I'd actually love to play a Justice League game with the combat system & production values of a Kingdom Hearts game
dont give disney and square enix ideas lol
I mean, to get there we would need to go through like 30 side chapters, sequels, prequels, and a mobile game. .....huh.
Actually it's called Death Metal
@@sonicjr53 Hey now. Disney and WB would never work together like this. Obviously we use Platinum Games and WB
Perfect timing. Just what I needed for a boring day at work.
I think of the World Forger more like a glassblower. When he makes a world it's fragile and made of glass, but if it is flawed (like a bubble in the glass) it's thrown to Barbatos to destroy and melt back down. If it is good enough, stable enough, it gets hung up onto his wall of Universes.
Thank you Sal for explaining the “have your cake and eat it too” saying because I’ve literally been asking that question for years and nobody ever had a proper answer for it
watching these videos feels like im sitting down and chatting with a group of friends about comics. i love the channel so much
Hold on to your hats folks, cause YOU AIN’T SEEN NOTHING YET!!!
Ohohohoho this is going to be great!
"So then they hold hands and sing to each other!"
The moment Sal realises Alfred is on drums kills me. Great moment.
Just a small note about the note at the end when you discuss the proper phrase "eat your cake and have it to", I recently finished up Manhunt: The Unabomber where that particular phrase was the lynchpin to arresting the Unabomber, because he's like a perfectionist who would make the effort to say it the "right" way, instead of how language and that particular phrase has evolved
1:44:12
The shock was hilarious
Sal just so you know Nth Metal was originally called ninth Metal in the comics, so it’s a retcon that works well
Dang one of sal's sardonic criticism is actually a kind of bad take? I'm shocked. Utterly shocked.
I could have sworn that this wasn't true but I just checked a reprint of All-Star Comics #4 from the golden age and sure enough Hawkman refers to his belt of "ninth metal." Good catch and great memory!
I picked up the version Sal has about a year ago. I had no context for a single thing and dear god it was insane reading this. At least the pictures were amazing
God I can't wait for you guys to do the nonsensical yet totally awesome follow up Dark Nights Death Metal. It's insane WW has an invisible chainsaw of truth. Batman is a black lantern and Supe's is more 90s than he was in the actual 90s. It's glorious and incredibly stupid in the best way. Freaking Doctor Manhattan is somehow dragged into this tomfoolery. If I'm remembering correct WW become a golden kaiju goddess and has a cosmic scale fight with The Dr. Bathatten who laughs. It's a trip.
The "batman is dio of this book" made me smile.
Keep the good job guys.
I've been a firm believer that the Hawks should be recurring characters Wonder Woman and this book only boosts that thought. Doctor Fate too.
32:55 might go down as one of my favorite Back Issues moments
What’s funny is the only book that came out of this that is still around is the Terrifics.
The best book that came out of this was The Silencer. Had almost nothing to do with Metal.
@@alexm2930 Yeah I remember hearing good things about that book. The only when I read was the Terrifics.
I know it's not a technically new thing, but the Hawkman book is still going too
It's like after his Batman run, Scott synder was reborn like baby darkseid and was just handed some gaimen, some Morrison and a coke laced pixiestix and told to write
Not even 10 minutes in and once again my expectations are exceeded. Great job guys.
You on fire comicPOP!! SO METAL!
´´There should be a good version of Earth -3 in the Dark Multiverse´´. Thank you very much Ben, really really thank you.
37:16 "Okay, what?"
Ethan and Ben's reactions are priceless
Also technically Speaking Jonathan Samuel Kent superboy isn't a doomsday monster he's actually in a bunker that Lois his mom built to protect him from this disaster.
I like the Batman, Joker vs BWL fight because to me anyway it’s to show that BWL isn’t a fusion of Batman and joker but is just a crazy Bruce Wayne, and even as a crazy Bruce Wayne he can’t copy the Joker. Like Joker cuts the dude’s fingers off and BWL freaks out about it, but then the whole thing was ruined because he has been shoved into every story since where he not only somehow has hands but is also the Ultra plot armor cliche “because I’m Batman” Batman except evil and cosmic and I hate it.
Completely underrated Hawkmans character!! Recent run is awesome!!! He reincarnates due to the lives he took!! So he’s cursed until he’s saved as many lives as he’s killed! Such a good read!!
Hell yeah. Venditti's run is awesome
“Im a hole! CLOSE ME!!!” LOL 😂
So the Playlist is basically what I do while I'm writing I have certain scenes with music that I like to sync up with
Do the Batman who laughs mini series
"Try explaining it to your dad." Hit home way too hard!!😮
This channel gets me through my overnight shifts and wakes me up before I go into my college classes
Barbatos was in the Return of Bruce Wayne (Batman’s adventures in time after Final Crisis). Morrison retconned that he was a weapon known as the Hyper-Adapter
@397 Llederson So they attempted to summon Barbatos, but got the Hyper-Adapter instead. Then in Dark Nights: Metal the real Barbatos appears?
I read this book all together as a trade when that came out, and Sal's right, while you're reading the story it's actually really entertaining
but man, do I wish they'd delved into the Dark Multiverse stuff more. I like the idea of a "story garbage pile" where all of the extreme timelines of the multiverse end up to be destroyed, and to a lesser extent the Batmen tie-ins (where they give the origin stories of the evil Batmen) kinda gave a window into that but also don't do much more with it
They have done some Dark Multiverse stories that basically function as What Ifs
32:50 TIRES SCREECH FOR BACK STORY
Still love that the Terrifics was the best thing to come out of this
Steve Orlando and Riley Russmo’s Martian Manhunter was also fire
1:41 Sal and DC Comics editorial to fans fitting continuity: DON'T
I’ve been waiting for this one! I discovered your channel just a few months ago and have been devouring content ever since. You folks are AWESOME!! Keep up the fantastic work!
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS SO METAL
Ben: "Just the Justice League though? And not the other superheroes that are there to help them?"
Sal: "Oh no, Green Arrow has to carry Steel."
Lol!
YES. YES, YOU BEAUTIFUL BASTARDS. I absolutely cannot wait to listen to an hour and a half of Ben and Ethan being confused while Sal explains how awesome and stupid metal is.
the best part was when red death became good and changed the color of his outfit.
20:20 lmao it was amazing 😂😂😂
That music in the intro is so perfect for this video
1:40:19 as I understand it, Joker doesn’t like imitations of himself. At least in some continuities.
The Bendis Analogy with creating things that other creators don't acknowledge💯🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
The plastic man in an egg is a silly putty reference. way back in the olden days you bought silly putty and it was sold in a plastic egg
WILL THEY PLAY A ROLE IN THIS!? *In tie ins*
Best fing quote from Sal ever “oh my god Alfred is on drums”.
Another classic episode of BackIssues has arrived.
Love huma and huma but the intro music was a perfect choice, hype AF!
Not even at school and only 7 minutes in and I’m feeling like I’m in science class with the whole comic metal talk. Might need to study for our quiz over this by the end of the video.😂
🎶na-na na-na na-na na-na, leader!
na-na na-na na-na na-na, leader! LEADER!! I mean, BATMAN!!!🎶
- Homer Simpson
I would love to spend 3.99 on a martian manhunter book every month, too bad every time they put one out it sucks.
The opening music is so cool!
That war cry needs to be made into a ring tone! 1:46:50
Jon Snow Nightwing must have been corporate synergy: AT&T owns both DC Comics and HBO (which makes GoT)
The intro music was a great touch
Remember when Batman fought, like, The Penguin?
I been waiting for a long time for this episode. When sal referenced this book 2-3 weeks ago I knew it was coming. Again great episode. Worth of 2 views, once at work(giggity) an another as I write. Nj represents once again. Much love from cape May county.
16:16
Honestly that must be so frustrating for writers who want to help expand their books’ continuity. Like, “Hey I set this cool idea up for you all to run with. Have fun! Oh you don’t want to have fun. ‘Aight then cool. My bad.”
Let’s go!!!!!! I was waiting on this one!!
