Ok first off let me thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your channel was the only thing I listened to during and the days after my son was born. The long nights watching orgin stories and full story arches. Thank you for all your knowledge. Now I have something for you. I think Marvel Agents of shield is setting up for secret invasion in the guest house in Tahiti.
I've never noticed how much the fight panel around 1:11:05 looks like the big battle in Endgame. And the fact that Cap is using Mjolnir might even suggest that Fear Itself was an inspiration for the Russo while making the movie
RajOfColumbus Oh shut the fuck up loser. I know more DC Comics than you probably do. LOL but I know you enjoy reading Dimwit Comics. DC Comics hasn't published anything since the New 52 came into existence.
i love this particular era of Cyclops because it shows just how dark and how far he is willing to go for mutants he is far far from the good soldier boy scout that people often see him as if it wasn't for his respect for Professor X he would likely be a chief member of the brotherhood
Man I really fucking love your channel, I've always wanted to get into the marvel comic universe stuff and always thought it was cool but I never knew how to. With there being so many different stories and characters and plots that may or may not be cannon it honestly scared me away from even trying. But when I watch these videos I really feel like I can understand the story, you explain all these nuances and stuff that I would have no hope of knowing on my own (because I haven't read many comics) and you put them in such a way that makes them easily understandable. Thank you man, your videos are really a blessing.
Wait a second... we just skipped over the coincidence of Hulk becoming "Breaker of Worlds" and getting metal armor on his arms. That's definitely a reference.
I swear I need to stop watching your channel lol. I end up buying wayy too many comics. 50 graphic novels in the last month alone working my way “Avengers Disassembled” to “Annihilation Scourage” covering every major event (you got me obsessed with Sentry so a lot of new avengers, dark avengers and mighty avengers in there plus his own runs). Just got through house of M and new avengers vol III and just about to crack open “iron man extremis” to work my way into Civil war. Absolutely love your channel man there surprisingly isn’t a ton out there to put things in order and go into detail but I’m loving every second working my way through the timeline. HUGE thank you to you and please keep the vids coming they are amazing. It’s like sitting down and talking comics with a friend. If it wasn’t for this channel I doubt I’d actually be sitting down and reading as much as I have. Getting lost in these comics and it reminds me of when I was a kid! I’d love you see you make a video of reading order for major events and even individual collections and orders for specific characters.
Only because I don't think anyone answered you about secret war new heroes, volcana was the other woman with titianna that doom made. She became a love interest for molecule man.
What I love about Rob and his channel, if I feel like I didn't enjoy or understand a story I come here and he changes my mind by end. This channel is now so integral to my comic reading rituals I couldn't imagine life without Comics Explained! But yeah definitely buy and read your comics then head over here!
1:06:15 Yore-mun-gander. Good try. Also, great work! Excellent way to explain all the typical comic tangled mess in a clear manner. Got my subscription in one fell swoop.
They op when it comes power level(probably the most powerful when it comes to earth) but teamwork suck a lot of xmen don't like each other or have issues .. but if they didn't the xmen could wipe the floor with the avengers or inhumans
I know I’m a year late but they are also really not emotionally stable which keeps them back sometimes like wolverines temper, Cyclopes pride, rogue being scared of her powers ect
The xmen cant be op seeing how in most of their major stories they're hunted like dogs and pushed into hiding by normal humans with military equipment and access 🤷🏾♂️
In the house of x and powers of x storylines, even when Xavier and Magneto team up together and the mutants do fight back, they still lose in the end. I love the X-Men, but they never come out on top.
So so so many mutants never had a supportive and incredibly equipped facility to hone their powers, not to mention Xavier's (and whoever else based on comic tbh) guidance and instruction. It's not like every mutant reaches their potential, or even close to most, honestly. I mean Joe Average mutant is going to get absolutely destroyed if tossed in the Danger Room sessions the x-men train on regularly. Quickly. So it'd pmuch be like The Brotherhood and The X-Men against potentially multiple powerful nations... And you have dicks like Trask just looking for the tiniest reason to MasterMold the world.
little note here, God in the old testament never said he is a "Selfish God" he says he is a "Jealous God". this basically just means "I have given you free will, if you choose to worship someone else, I wont stop you, but know...I will be very sad with your choice, and you are the one damning yourself." is basically the message he's putting forth...
Oh gods... It's gotten to the point where I can quote the intro, matching Robs cadence, without trying. Though I still miss the old intro. That song kicked ass!
Iron Man doesn't give anyone hammers, and none of the heroes protecting the earth gets any from Cul Borson. So the Serpent is actually Oprah in this case.
I know this is an old video, but the even during the Hickman run, the X-men were merc’d by a team of basic soldiers with magical skin grafted on them.. aka not op. X-Men < piece of lucky foreskin. Where’s my ring rob?
I like how charging the aircraft carrier and then slamming it into him is their 42nd plan. Reaching that number means you're using the plans everyone initially disregarded as too silly to try.
@etherraichu Or it could be a nod to the meaning of life via Douglas Adams, or that 42 is the number of creation in the kaballah, or that 42 is considered a warning of massive imbalance, and/or a warning that you're not living, but just surviving. Any of these including yours could be true. Or all could be. Or none could be. 42 is a hugely weird number either way
challenge accepted. 1. They are still emotionally human and full of those inherent flaws. 2. mutant powers tend to be highly situational or volatile to the user or bystanders. 3. Apocalypse. A mutant so powerful he's made a herald out of nearly all omegas and powerhouses......who's only real weakness is that he gets bored/incompetent depending who is writing.
The reason the X-men aren’t broken are due to the villains they face. Apocalypse is one of the strongest people in the MCU. The Phoenix, onslaught, Shadow King, nimrod, just to name a few. The X-men need to be close to the power of these people so they can defeat them. Not saying that they are used properly but I hope that’s enough to get my a robcore ring lol
With the Captain Marvel movie set to do the Kree/Skrull war, are you going to eventually cover it? The Kree/Skrull war and Operation Galactic Storm are two of my favorite Avengers stories. I just love the cosmic races and those two stories cover the three major ones, in my opinion.
I don't think the level of power the mutants have makes them broken but is an integral part of how the world views them. Without the omega level threat mutants pose humanity would have less to fear and would be far more accepting. If mutants were all Ugly Johns or Beaks they might be ostracized and bullied to some degree but there would also a great deal of pity for them. There wouldn't be protesters fearing for their place in the world if the biggest threat a mutant posed was making you feel a bit creeped out. Also one of the struggles many mutants face is how to control their powers so they don't decimate everything around them. They have to walk a fine line of protecting themselves and becoming uncontrollable engines of destruction. It's like when Superman fought Darkseid in Batman Superman Apocalypse. He always has to be careful like he's walking on eggshells knowing if he truly let loose he could accidentally destroy the world but fighting Darkseid he could stop holding back and truly see what he's capable of. Without their power levels they would just be curiosities relegated to sideshows or roller skating disco light shows.
You can would be so drunk if you took a shot every time Rob says”cool” in one of his explained videos ! lol . I love your vids Rob , keep em coming my guy!
Hey “sexy voice guy 🤣😂” the issue you’re looking for when Captain America FIRST lifts Thor’s hammer is Thor #390 during the mid ‘80’s. Captain America was sporting the black costume as the Captain back then. It was also when the Avengers just took over Hydrobase as one of their bases of operations. Grogg from the army of Seth, the Serpent King, came calling. There’s a splash page of Thor and the Captain back-to-back (truly epic 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾), taking on his forces. At one moment during the battle Thor is separated from his hammer and is in trouble. The Captain lifts the hammer and quickly throws it his way. Thor catches and takes care of the rest. Epic issue in that Captain America (in his guise as the Captain) lifts the hammer for the first time and both Cap and Thor become closer friends as a result of it. Thor stating that there’s a sacred bond between those that have lifted the hammer. When people reference Cap lifting Thor’s hammer I’ve always thought they had this issue in mind 🤷🏽♂️, but now I know it’s the Fear Itself issue that the reference comes from.
Many wish to grasp the hammer of *Thor* But only the most worthy ever feel it’s might. And *this* **holds out Mjolnir** Be *not* the hammer of which I speak - - The hammer I speak of is my *manhood*
Love you’re channel but as a big X and mutant fan stop bringing up Matthew Malloy he’s been written out of reality. I would love to see coverage of the Iceman series! Such an underused but amazing Omega Mutant that finally got story.
Rob, first off, I love your vids. I listen to them omw to work everyday. That being said, I've heard you say that there is nothing special about Capt. America a few times. Think of this. What made the Cap special was his heart. Not just anyone couldn take the SS serum. Also, during the original Secret Wars, when everbody thinks to follow Prof. X into battle, the Prof. says he casts his vote for Cap...'Nuff Said....Peace
This is the only storyline for wich I have every single paperback from the avengers, the main event, the home front and a couple specials (the spider-man one, the skadi one and the aftermath) Felt pretty sick to actually collect it
I know this is old and probably won't be read, but doing some of those old X-men runs like Siege Perilous, Inferno, the arc that introduces Apocolypse, The Brood arcs would be really cool. An 80's Marvel channel would be epic.
You're sleeping on my boy captain America. In fact I say one of his powers is that so many people underestimate him. Cap doesn't surrender. That alone can turn the tide in any battle.
Is there a celestial that embodys life? If so that could explain all these people coming back to life after death.. Meaning there is tools and spells ECT that were created to defy death.
Coming back to this video after getting some serious nostalgia for Marvel Avengers Alliance, the game that adopted this story as the main plotline of its second half of the game. That one featured new versions of the Worthy as unlockable alternate costumes with: She Hulk as Skirn Luke Cage as Nul Spider-Woman as Kuurth Mockingbird as Nerkkod Daimon Hellstrom as Angrir Black Knight as Mokk Ghost Rider as Greithoth (was supposed to be Thundra but because Marvel & Fox were beefing at the time they changed it to Ghost Rider) I always found this to be an interesting story. It gives me similar vibes to the Apocalypse stories with the Horseman and while it is heroes being turned to evil, they become all new characters at the same time.
Destroyer Iron Man has been my favorite suit since I first saw it! I also really love Marvel Now Thunderbolts with ghost rider, agent Venom, Deadpool and Punisher. Great work my dude, really enjoy these videos.
Wasn’t Punisher who left Cap’s gear for Bucky? After his brief run, he was afraid he would tarnish Cap’s image and ideal and basically left everything for Bucky and essentially saying he had to be Cap or Cap’s legacy was going to be destroyed. It is possible it’s just my messed up head canon.
Don't you ever utter the phrase, "Captain America is not really special" again. DO YOU HEAR ME BOY? Captain America is the embodiment of not just America, but Earth's greatest ideals. Do you understand me son? Good. Don't make me go Juggernaut on your ass.
*Captain America* "is that your army big man" *Odin* "HOW DARE YOU, THIS IS MY REALM" *Captain America* "HoW DaRe YoU, ThIs Is My ReAlM" *Odin* "..." *Captain America* "Thor, Fix Him Now"
X-men aren’t OP because they are afraid of humans. Yes they have the most powerful hero’s but they can’t even fight of the USA army Plus if they were OP. they with have defeated thanos 1 time alone without help of athor superhero team
Their afraid of humans stupidity(nukes that would kill mutants and humans), mutants are just evolved humans. Without Xavier the X-men could turn evil and destroy all humans easily. They're X-men because they respect what's left of humanity in them.

Lol, sounds like something Thor would say when he's drunk.
The X-men/mutants in general are not overpowered because they always get nerfed by the writers.

Gotta love Odin in this comic...
Not really.
You're sleeping on my boy captain America. In fact I say one of his powers is that so many people underestimate him. Cap doesn't surrender. That alone can turn the tide in any battle.
I don't know about sexy but Rob has a soothing voice. I listen after work to relax. Rob, will you be my friend?
Best thor vid by this channel right here
Is there a celestial that embodys life? If so that could explain all these people coming back to life after death.. Meaning there is tools and spells ECT that were created to defy death.
Coming back to this video after getting some serious nostalgia for Marvel Avengers Alliance, the game that adopted this story as the main plotline of its second half of the game. That one featured new versions of the Worthy as unlockable alternate costumes with:
She Hulk as Skirn
Luke Cage as Nul
Spider-Woman as Kuurth
Mockingbird as Nerkkod
Daimon Hellstrom as Angrir
Black Knight as Mokk
Ghost Rider as Greithoth (was supposed to be Thundra but because Marvel & Fox were beefing at the time they changed it to Ghost Rider)
I always found this to be an interesting story. It gives me similar vibes to the Apocalypse stories with the Horseman and while it is heroes being turned to evil, they become all new characters at the same time.
I miss whan Marevl was like this! Before All New Marvel
I found this page a week ago and I can't stop.
My beautiful Stormbreaker ❤️
RIP mjolnir 💔
You know... I'd love an Octessence war. Been waiting a loooong time for it.
"Everyone" gets Thor's hammer?

Destroyer Iron Man has been my favorite suit since I first saw it! I also really love Marvel Now Thunderbolts with ghost rider, agent Venom, Deadpool and Punisher. Great work my dude, really enjoy these videos.
@Comics Explained, X-men aren't OP cause they keep losing ;)
Wasn’t Punisher who left Cap’s gear for Bucky? After his brief run, he was afraid he would tarnish Cap’s image and ideal and basically left everything for Bucky and essentially saying he had to be Cap or Cap’s legacy was going to be destroyed. It is possible it’s just my messed up head canon.
Don't you ever utter the phrase, "Captain America is not really special" again. DO YOU HEAR ME BOY? Captain America is the embodiment of not just America, but Earth's greatest ideals. Do you understand me son? Good. Don't make me go Juggernaut on your ass.
One of my favorites by you Rob!
Good old fashion Ms. Marvel, before agenda version.
*Captain America* "is that your army big man"
*Odin* "HOW DARE YOU, THIS IS MY REALM"
*Captain America* "HoW DaRe YoU, ThIs Is My ReAlM"
*Odin* "..."
*Captain America* "Thor, Fix Him Now"
X-men aren’t OP because they are afraid of humans. Yes they have the most powerful hero’s but they can’t even fight of the USA army
Plus if they were OP. they with have defeated thanos 1 time alone without help of athor superhero team
Their afraid of humans stupidity(nukes that would kill mutants and humans), mutants are just evolved humans. Without Xavier the X-men could turn evil and destroy all humans easily. They're X-men because they respect what's left of humanity in them.
The Dark knight Youre confusing xmen with mutants. Xmen fight for humans
@@JustSomeGoy His name is The Dark Knight I'm pretty sure he doesn't know much about X-Men or Marvel with that idiotic comment LoL
the only good hero they have is scarlet witch which is an avenger, outside of that old jean was good too
What? X-men fight for humanity nimrod. Do you know what Jean gray would to the human race ALONE?!
