    Unlike every other ring, the Black Power Ring wears its host instead of the other way around, making the body merely a vessel for the power of the Ring to function.

    • @WereCreed
      @WereCreed 2 года назад +2

      Depends on what sort of necromancy lore/justification
      Restoring a soul to it's original body to allow it to live on past it's time? Bad.
      Raising a corpse temporarily with a random soul to fight and serve you, where the soul returns back to the void/realm/whatever you wanna call it? Sounds good to me

      American Panda yet you involuntarily put money in his pocket just by watching this video. Ad sense pays him based off of views which you and I provide. You spend time watching his video and time isn’t free. Just because you didnt directly hand him a dollar to watch this video doesn’t mean you didn’t pay him. On RUclips I enjoy is money and your time watching this video pays him directly via RUclips. This thought that you must hand someone money to view their videos is nonsense. He voluntarily makes this video and voluntarily puts it on a platform that pays via “clicks”. Stop spouting nonsense

    Rob,
    Charles Xavier died like three times and came back before the death of superman comic now that comic (Superman)was far more dramatic because of the year long commitment to his death, but none the less I would think how many times Charles Xavier died cheapens comic deaths. Just a thought love your channel and your thoughts.

    If you haven't already, because I just thought of this while watching this video, make a video on the entity for each of the emotions in the spectrum. That's if that is currently possible. And also like in this video you point out what the one specific person has to go through to create a new power ring for each spectrum.
