To be fair, they're a group designed to prevent situations from turning into major problems, so of course we only hear about their fuckups, because that's the only times anything interesting happens.

I love how to this day we all agree that Hulk represents the physical game over scenario for Civil War and Dr. Strange represents the metaphysical game over scenario, therefore REQUIRING them to not participate in the conflict
I would love to see a breakdown of all the heroes/villains who got replaced in Secret Invasion and a rough estimate of when they got replaced. Because that still confuses me.
that would be useful to have when reading comics from that time and I haven't been able to find a good list maybe when the Secret Invasion show comes out would be a good time to do that
4:14 It’s absolutely hilarious to me that all the OG members of the Illuminati were unilaterally against the idea of forming what is essentially the marvel equivalent of the Justice League
It’s so funny Namor’s considered a hero because every time he shows up he does something absolutely awful until the consequences of his actions catch up with him and he begs for help
The Illuminati. The visionary geniuses behind such glorious decisions as pissing off the Skrulls and pissing off the Hulk. Those decisions definitely won’t come back to bite the other heroes anytime soon. 🤣
Thank you, I'm so happy you mentioned the misconception about DC being darker than Marvel thanks to the snyderverse (which i personally despise). Both have insanely dark characters (some of Marvels biggest hitters were Punisher, Daredevil, Wolverine, Blade and etc) and before the snyderverse Superman and the rest of the Justice League were not edgelords. That "darker" comparison really needs to end soon :-3
Great video, man! The Illuminati are maybe my favourite superhero team (probably because they fail so much lol) and you did such a great job explaining the Incursions saga, which is complicated as hell but also so cool.
Something I’ll never forget that was just an insane coincidence is a few years ago before ever learning about the Marvel Illuminati and their conflict with the Hulk, I was playing a game of Superfight with some friends, and got in to maybe the most intense debate I’ve ever had in that game about who would win between the Hulk and the Illuminati (I had the Illuminati and debated hard but everyone voted for the Hulk, cause he’s the Hulk)
I don't really pay attention to the background all that much but I did notice kinda quickly that you updated a certain hero's icon. You have a fine attention to detail. Most would've left it or not even think of changing it because they forgot it was there in the first place.
I love these videos. Thanks for explaining The Illuminati of Marvel so clearly. I knew about some of it like sending The Hulk to an empty planet but the ship being thrown off course but that was all I knew until now. I also like Black Panther’s character more after this vid.
"DC Heroes are like gods trying to be human" Don't know about you, but it seems to me these gods sure acted more human than the Illuminati in this story
That’s what i was thinking everyone in marvel are gods trying to be human. THOR??? A literally god. Hulk is overpowered more than superman. Half of the marvel universe are god level genius and know about the multiverse and other dimension. Dc comics don’t even know about the multiverse until someone invaded them. Storm is a literal goddess. Dc comic is more realistic than marvel
@@leopardtree2249 It really isn't they both are equally fantastic and surreal, there isn't much realism in the world of either of them apart from the more down to earth stories that exist in both companies
Hi Drake, great vid. Following up on the events of Secret Wars and the OG illuminati last appearance, most heroes don't seem to remember or at least talk about the Incursions. Characters like the F4 and Miles Morales have acknowledged the event but it feels like the majority of the Marvel Universe has forgotten about it. Could you think of the reason behind this or is it for the convenience of writers
Probably because in the rebooted universes the incursions didn’t happen, or they left that part out of most people’s memory so as not to cause chaos...remember it was Franklin and Owen that were remaking all of the destroyed realities
Oh wow... With Spiderman: No Way Home made that memory wipe spell MCU cannon, I can totally see a Sentry movie or show coming out. As a die heart Sentry fan I'd love that
16:07 So, an alternate version of Squadron Supreme (as if the Supreme Power version of them wasn't enough). I mean their Green Lantern expy is literally just another Doctor Spectrum.
I’m the type who likes characters and self contained series so events like all these annoy me because they happen often enough they usually kneecap any series that starts to hit it’s stride
I love to imagine them sitting around a table and black bolt has to use a dry erase board to communicate (yeah I know professor x is there so that's unnecessary but it's fun to imagine)
I kind of disagree about watching Batman recruit the justice league being more entertaining than Nick Fury and widow doing it. Mostly because DCs idea of recruiting a new hero was a single scene between Bruce Wayne and a new character. Our entire introduction to Aquaman before he joins the justice league is 1 single scene with Bruce Wayne, who magically knows exactly where the Aquaman is, for plot purposes. It felt extremely forced
Oh dope I just noticed you added the Punisher's new oni skull logo. I actually think it's cool looking and kinda needed since the dangerous assholes kinda ruined the old one for me.
Loving these videos! Whilst I apprrciate these mostly relate to tv/movoes, I'd love to see some on more obscure comic-only characters... like Death's Head II, or the Exiles
OMG! I have read all those events and some of those Avengers issues, and now I truly understand what happened at the start of those events you mentioned and Infinity! Thank you! You're are the Comic Book Sage.
17:36 that is such a powerful scene man really showing how much of the psychological toll that it’s been taking on them to the point Black Panther’s own ancestors kicked him out of their afterlife basically, just because he wouldn’t detonate that bomb, man that scene is so great
I freaking love comic books! Thank you, Drake! This was a wild ride in something I only had passing knowledge with. I did learn a little something new!
I love how Doctor Strange 2 is going to turn the Illuminati from a secret super team to a group of variant versions of characters who protect the multiverse from threats
@@bigboy2281 They weren’t supposed to protect the Multiverse from threats, their goal was to pretext their Reality, their earth and their Universe from threats.
@@jms7265 yeah that’s what I said they are supposed to protect there world from ALL threats even multiverse ones like the incursions they had a big deal to do with
I would *LOOOOVE* a Deep Dive on both of the Secret Wars. I mean, I do know the cliff notes of both*, but after getting my hands on some of the Tie-In issues (Specifically Inhumans, Runaways, and Guardians of the Galaxy) I’m curious as to what everyone was doing in their respective books. *(SW I: The Beyonder** creates Battleworld to play TABS: Marvel Edition. SW II: Dr. Doom using the power of the Beyonders** creates Battleworld by stitching previously destroyed Earths together, with himself as God Emperor) **The Beyonder (singular) was created by The Beyonders (plural). I know it’s confusing.
Honest I read both the New Avengers Comic and The Secret Wars without fully understanding what was going on back when it came out, but this video has really helped but the pieces together
Fantastic video Drake! Thank you for such a detailed explanation on a group which I knew so little about. That was a very fun watch. Love your channel.
Man, there is never gonna be another event like Secert Wars 2015, where it really felt like what we knew was coming to an end and you see all these characters go to extremes to make their point
The whole “used the stones to destroy the stones” thing working in the movies and not in the comics can be explained by something from the what if show: infinity stones from different universes play by different rules
I don’t know if this is something you would do, but I would love to see some videos on your personal favorite storylines involving relevant characters. With Doctor Strange: MoM coming up, you could do a video on some of your favorite Doctor Strange stories
17:17 Dr. Strange: "I'm losing? Nah bitch, WE'RE losing. Roses are red, weapons against me won't prosper... with this sacred treasure, I summon... BIG RAGA, THE OPP STOPPA!"
Holy shit, your breakdown of "Men trying to be Gods versus God's trying to be Men" is such a great comparison, I don't think I've heard that before but I'm using it now, thanks!
I love how in the marvel universe, having the greatest heroes in the world team up to deal with universal threats is treated like this nefarious secret elite society, but in the DC universe they just openly formed the Justice League and everyone loves and respects them.
The Justice League is still feared like all hell. There are many who don't respect them as well. This is why things like Task Force X and other projects came into works across the globe.
For AvX did they explain how Namor flooded Wakanda, cause it is a land locked nation, so did he just make it rain really bad very fast or what? If they do decide to do this again bring in Fury for both being on the group and field agent, in the sense when he recruits a bunch of random heroes from different groups no one blinks an eye. They talk about a threat, give who they think from their group would do best, then Fury gets and sends them off.
I know the whole story of world war hulk and all but I honestly can't remember if they asked Bruce Banner if he was cool with being sent off, cause I would think that Bruce would be totally done with that
According to a tie in. The reason why they didn't ask Banner if it would be cool to do with while they worked on a cure WAS BECAUSE HE MIGHT SAY NO thus they couldn't trick him.
16:01 red suit mr fantastic is cool. Now I want to se marvel make a comic AU where all reds on suits are blue and all blue suits are red. And captain America’s Shield has is classic color from its 1st appearance
@@aadn. they all built the bombs together just because they were to cowardly to pull the trigger doesn’t mean they aren’t responsible. Steve was right about the illuminati imo. If the incursions were public information all of the superheroes could’ve contributed to finding solutions.

Funny you mention the Illuminati forming again because that appears to be what the main MCU seems to be heading in lol. I mean we have Doctor Strange a version of Professor X, and even a version of Iron Man.
Hey Drake, I loved your Sonic video it was cool do you think you will ever make more video game content in the future. I was curious if you knew anything about the glory of Hercules games
Yooo, the doctor strange movie opens an amazing opportunity, imagine how cool it would be if we met a new Black Panther, who's like this fugitive, he has a beat up suit and wears a black cloak and is constantly on the run from the illuminati, that could be an amazing side character or main focus for the next black panther movie
@@KingOfThaDead64 Yeah, if there was anything like that, it would have been teased by now. I really liked Heimdall in Ragnarok and thought it would be a cool call back to the comics while also doing something original for the MCU and giving us a new Black Panther that is a different black panther, one that's like hardened survivalist and no longer a regal king
Namor deserves some respect. While the others in the group are influential in their circles, Namor is a king. His first priority after making sure the world is safe is that his kingdom is safe. While some of his choices weren't the right ones, they were the ones that needed to be taken for his people to survive. The lives of other worlds aren't as important as his own people's. That's why he didn't hesitate to destroy the other planets. The weight of that sin was nothing compared to the weight of his crown.
13:43 I just love how australias just conviently on the side thats not breaking i'm just imaging us Australian are like ""matey the americans are at it again,,.
i wish you could have mentioned the hint of their comeback during the hellfire gala, idk, the way they all gather to discuss xavier's position was sussy af
The funny thing is that the Snyderverse characters aren't even that dark. I feel even Drake missed that aspect. Like, in Man of Steel, literally the whole thesis of the story is that Superman is going to be the hope for humanity. That's Jor El's whole message to Clark. To be that hope. In BVS, the film literally ends with Batman realizing how wrong he's been about Supes and is inspired to become a better person. Because Supers continued to be hopeful and stick to his missions despite the whole world hating him.
Ahem the Annihilators are the most powerful. And yeah I really like Namor, but A vs X and Hickmans interpretation honestly wasn't my favourite part, even if he was a necessary evil in his stories.
I always loved that they’re a group that exists only to have their plans blow up in their faces.
Ah yes, the Wile E. Coyote school of planning!
To be fair, they're a group designed to prevent situations from turning into major problems, so of course we only hear about their fuckups, because that's the only times anything interesting happens.

Comic Drake is revealing one of the greatest conspiracy ever known…
Yes, the one about bald people
ngl the craziest part of secret wars (2015) is the fact marvel said our earth (1218) died in an incursion even though it’s still around IRL
interpretation of this statement, our earth is going to be part of the incursion someday
I'm gonna cause the Incursion.
Secret Wars happened in 2015 tho, right? Our earth getting remade in 2015 tracks pretty well with history.

With how both DC and Marvel have stand-ins of of each others heroes then it would be cool to see a video about how each company handles them.

The issue with incursions is why aren't the stars or other planets incursing
Earth is the center of the multiverse.

Great video. Love what you said about DC, very true!
The infinity gems are the dragon balls from the MU. Change my mind.
Comic iron man got me trembling how many crazy stuff hes done
The funny thing is that the Snyderverse characters aren't even that dark.
I feel even Drake missed that aspect. Like, in Man of Steel, literally the whole thesis of the story is that Superman is going to be the hope for humanity. That's Jor El's whole message to Clark. To be that hope. In BVS, the film literally ends with Batman realizing how wrong he's been about Supes and is inspired to become a better person. Because Supers continued to be hopeful and stick to his missions despite the whole world hating him.
This might be the first time anyone said AIM is just wanting everyone to get along
Great video, I hope they come back one day
7:29 You're gonna need a montage.
Ahem the Annihilators are the most powerful. And yeah I really like Namor, but A vs X and Hickmans interpretation honestly wasn't my favourite part, even if he was a necessary evil in his stories.
What story is the Aim vs Avengers vs Illuminati vs The Cabal in? It sounds interesting and I’d like to get the book
Time Runs Out. It takes place during Avengers Vol 5 and New Avengers Vol 3 simultaneously.
@@ComicDrake thanks, big fan. Love to see some more x-men content if you’re up for it
This was probably my favorite ara of Marvel Comics
Wow what a bonkers ride. Thanks!
Now i just wanna see the whole history of the sentry before the mind wipe.
The DC paragon thing i think was pretty obvious if even the CW shows talk about it
Zack Snyder really doesnt understand those characters
Hey Drake! Big Fan for 3years!
