2:46- "After a series of dead-ends, everyone realizes that their ideas aren't right, and they have no idea how to fix this situation." Yeah, but enough about DC's writers ... HA! I kid, I kid ...
Jokers not evil. He's just nut-shit crazy. I vaguely remember his sanity being restored briefly and he was crushed under the weight of his actions. If he was evil, sane or not he wouldn't have given a damn.
+Chazmondo of the clan Devlin he is evil, or at least that was what Endgame told us, he usually is just having fun but in that story he just wants to kill Batman, no joke there he is mad and Batman must die
My only real complaint about Shazam is he literally took a backseat the entire time. His who story arc was a back page story in the Justice League books instead of giving him his own storyline.
Comicstorian yeah i know what you mean, since this was my first real exposure to Shazam, it was something i probably wouldn't have read if it wasnt in JL so it was a pleasant surprise for me
Glad you are! Thats the entire purpose of this channel so everyone can get into comics as much as I am. This storyline brings you RIGHT up to the current cross universe event.
4:06 zatannas spells are just simple words which are placed correctly in the sentence but spelled in reverse. Here what she says is everyone get away from the box!
You buddy, or hey Sir, you once mentioneded Pip the Troll, can you tell me what I need to watch to make sense. Your video's are the best, but I can't find anything with Pip. But you layed it down so good, I've been obsessed with finding it again.
I know that they set up Dr. Light as a sympathetic character with a family in this universe, but seeing someone who was a known rapist getting their face fried off is SOOOO SATISFYING
It seems more and more that the Nu52 Universe is nothing more than an extended miniseries of smaller miniseries leading up to an event that will inevitably rewrite the DCU once again into another new universe. It doesn't feel permanent. it feels like the Death of Superman, the Superior Spider-Man or Knightfall, just here to tell these stories and then it will come to an end.
When Pandora gave the box to Vandal Savage he changed. The box can corrupt you and make you evil, but Vandal Savage was already evil. So instead of becoming evil he became good. He instantly felt remorse for the horrible things he has done. I think the box would do the same to Darkseid and make him good.
The Crime Syndicate. 1- Ultraman ( Clark Kent ). 2- Owlman ( Thomas Wayne Jr. ). 3- Superwoman ( Lois Lane ). 4- Johnny Quick. 5- Power Ring ( Hal Jordan ). 6- Deathstrom. 7- Atomica. 8- The Grid.
I wish DC's stories with heroes/villains forming NEW TEAMS would stay grounded instead of something involving multiverse and Darkside & other earths.. ***There's enough characters to have it just be a new faction rises when someone dies and someone else didn't prevent it.. *AKA what if say Nightwing accidentally kills in a duel and instead of breaking it up & someone allowed it to happen..
thanks Comicstorian team, for making & summarizing this complex story in a really really understand (make sense) manner 😁😎👍💪👏 I read the JusticeLeage#52 books, was confused at some part of it... 😅
*Me at 0:48: OH, so this is what we're talking about. I thought this was going to be the line of comics titled "Trinity" where Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman started having the same dreams and then Morgan Le Fey tried to steal their trinity essence something or rather. That one was REALLY confusing.
Wait, so... Did DC fuck up their New 52 right from the start? I mean, the idea was to merge all the universes into one... and here's a multiverse crossover event...
I like how they bring constantine for now, kinda special like he's not like the other heroes, he rules da shit but I hope he doesn't stay too long and have his universe ruined by the mainstream heroes
What happened to the Teen Titans? Can you do video on what the teen titans were doing while all of this was happening? It also seems that the Cyborg is not part of the Teen Titans. As he is in the Justice League and he turns into Grid.
I have this comic and I came here to reassure myself cuz all the things that happen between the times 2:25 and 4:40 are not in my comic so where would I find them I am really confused please help
but...he isn't, he's just doing his stuff, sometimes that requires working with other people and their "saving the world" thing, but he usually do whatever he wants in the end, not caring what others want
Can someone please explain to me how Darkseid's defeat had any impact on this story ? I really don't get it... So, in Flashpoint, all the universes were merged together to make to "new 52". Then in the Justice League storyline, the JL defeats Darkseid . But how does this affect this whole "universe" thing ? What does it matter ?
I don't think too many writers truly "get" Darkseid. Too often he's just depicted as a super-powerful baddie and little else. I thought the Timm\Dini group came close in their SUPERMAN and JUSTICE LEAGUE animated series but the one who came closest was JIM STARLIN with his "Thanos" ripoff character for Marvel.
Liam Horsman That's why I called Thanos a ripoff character. I think Starlin is one of those who loved Jack's "Fourth World" books. Darkseid first appeared in 1970 while Thanos appeared one or two years later but the point I was making was that Starlin "got" what Darkseid was all about, he doesn't just want to rule the world, he's already got one! He wants to control the thoughts and will of every living thing and the key to that is The Anti-Life Equation which taps into the nucleus of all Life. Thanos is the ultimate nihilist and one who worships Death. A watered down approach of the same theme. You'd have to read the original Fourth World stories to really appreciate what Jack was going for. Also read and listen to some of his interviews Jack was just continuing the same theme he had developed over and over again when he was at Marvel. The theme of a clash between two societies or worlds: X-Men v. Brotherhood of Evil Mutants; FF v. Frightful Four; Asgardians v. Frost Giants v. Midgardians; Apokolips v. New Genesis and the Eternals v. The Deviants. Kirby was Jewish and I believe that heritage influenced his work a LOT but better writers than I have written about this subject.
MoviezGames Back on issue #6 of Justice League, Darkseid wasn't defeated, he was "battlefield removed", to do so Cyborg had to connect himself to every motherbox and boom tube that was used by Apokolips' armies to get to earth, when Cyborg accessed to these devices he turned them on at the same time to return Apokolips' armies and Darkseid back to Apokolips, then he overloaded them all to leave them unusable and to prevent another attack from Darkseid's armies. When Cyborg did this, the barriers between the universes weakened, this allowed things to go through Earth-3 and Earth-0.
That wasn't catwoman, in the next issue it was shown to be Martian Manhunter in disguise, he planned it. And obviously a bullet couldn't kill Manhunter
Comicstorian oh ok it was still a pretty good story arc could you do a video on that? Since Throne of Atlantis lead up to the events that would shape Trinity War
the justice league reactions to threats
darkseid appears - we can handle this
anti monitor appears - this gonna be rough
evil alfred appears - nooo we're f***ed
xxSpike1989xx Pretty much
xxSpike1989xx haha
2:46- "After a series of dead-ends, everyone realizes that their ideas aren't right, and they have no idea how to fix this situation."
Yeah, but enough about DC's writers ... HA! I kid, I kid ...
"Batman visits the afterlife..."
Wat?
Gamal Elkordy you know because he's batman
miller repin Nothing explained, just walks up to Heaven like "sup"
Gamal Elkordy The phantom stragner and dead man take him there... it is explaned...
MPMmatthewandnate3 I mean in the video it's not explained at that moment. I know the comic will explain it.
MPMmatthewandnate3 not true batman just wips out one of his gadgets from his belt and it just takes him to heaven jk
4:08 She’s saying “Everyone get away from the box!” Just to make that clear
Marvel: Infinity war
Dc: "Hold my beer"
She's looking for someone of pure evil, and she chooses Lex, What about Joker? I would had gone straight to Arkham
Jokers not evil. He's just nut-shit crazy.
I vaguely remember his sanity being restored briefly and he was crushed under the weight of his actions. If he was evil, sane or not he wouldn't have given a damn.
+Chazmondo of the clan Devlin he is evil, or at least that was what Endgame told us, he usually is just having fun but in that story he just wants to kill Batman, no joke there he is mad and Batman must die
the Joker literally can't feel empathy he's not evil he's mentally insane.
Chazmondo of the clan Devlin he is evil joker and his sane self are two completely different people
Another dork chiming in.
Rest in peace benny
constantine total badass as usual
Bro can you make batman: endgame story? i really curious about that story
COME ON, WHAT'S IN THE BOX?
WHAT'S IN THE *_FUCKING BOX_*
Power off a god
LMFAO GREAT movie
n word pass
I was pretty happy with Shazams origin story throughout New 52 Justice League and I was pretty happy with the payoff he had in the Trinity War arc.
My only real complaint about Shazam is he literally took a backseat the entire time. His who story arc was a back page story in the Justice League books instead of giving him his own storyline.
Comicstorian yeah i know what you mean, since this was my first real exposure to Shazam, it was something i probably wouldn't have read if it wasnt in JL so it was a pleasant surprise for me
love the videos . trying to get back to comic books and your vids are really helping thanks
Glad you are! Thats the entire purpose of this channel so everyone can get into comics as much as I am. This storyline brings you RIGHT up to the current cross universe event.
I always forget that John Constintine is in the DC continuity.
So basically, Flash fucked everything up by causing the Flashpoint Paradox.
Go Barry!!! The Timeline is fucked !!!
Doctor manhatem
The 7 devils ARE the crime Syndikate. Theres seven members...;)
The 7 from The Boys?
haha so evil alfred opened pandora's "box" that dirty boy! the batfamily get all the action in parallel dimensions too!
I just finished reading this book and let me tell you one thing. ITS AMAZING
We don't care
@@tessabrady2620 piss off
@@tessabrady2620 that’s a bit mean
You had me until the evil Alfred. Alfred is the greatest good that has ever touched DC. Speaking of, where is Alfred's backstory? I must know.
This was a crazy story I finished reading it yesterday and didn't know wtf was going on but this video helped me understand it a little better.
Rip Benny
Dude u rock. I've been ready Injustice Gods Amoung Us. Are u gonna do them, year one, Year Two and Year Three ?
4:06 zatannas spells are just simple words which are placed correctly in the sentence but spelled in reverse. Here what she says is everyone get away from the box!
You probably should have explained that when Atomica put the sliver of Kryptonite in Superman's brain, it caused his heat vision to activate.
Atomica put a sliver of kryptonite in Superman’s brain
I prefer after you done summarizing the whole event you can give about 2 minutes about your thoughts about the event :D
5:50 I was like crime syndicate crime syndicate crime syndicate crime syndicate crime syndicate!! and when he finally says it im like yesss i knew it!
I am a simple man. I see John Constantine in the thumbnail, I click.
Shazams Like ' i just knocked out superman!', but poor shazham, superman gets up and body checks him
Man I have watched all your vids you are really good at what you do I love it
The outsider opens Pandora’s box
You buddy, or hey Sir, you once mentioneded Pip the Troll, can you tell me what I need to watch to make sense. Your video's are the best, but I can't find anything with Pip. But you layed it down so good, I've been obsessed with finding it again.
I really hate the new 52 so much because it ruined a lot of my favorite characters getting screwed over
could you do some Martian Manhunter stories?? I'd love those!!
Love theses videos guys keep it up and thank you so much for these
Ok thanks man your complete story are so awesome man
I know that they set up Dr. Light as a sympathetic character with a family in this universe, but seeing someone who was a known rapist getting their face fried off is SOOOO SATISFYING

hold on Shazam took on the whole JL
Pandora could get darkseid since he's pure evil, but darkseid will probably kill her right away
When Pandora gave the box to Vandal Savage he changed. The box can corrupt you and make you evil, but Vandal Savage was already evil. So instead of becoming evil he became good. He instantly felt remorse for the horrible things he has done.
I think the box would do the same to Darkseid and make him good.
I love the deadpool stories please find more
Three Nailed To A Cross That day.
Why is there a link to this same video in the description? It'd be cool if there was some kind of playlist for all this. So confusing!!
Anyone find this somewhat similar to the regular show Christmas special with that magic present
The Crime Syndicate.
1- Ultraman ( Clark Kent ).
2- Owlman ( Thomas Wayne Jr. ).
3- Superwoman ( Lois Lane ).

I read the JusticeLeage#52 books, was confused at some part of it... 😅
Can you hear that? It's no one giving a fuck.
Whoa, seven sins? Seven crime syndicate members? Coincidence? I think NOT!
I paused the video just to read zantana's spell backwards lol
comic historian can you do a segment on which marvel hero or villain has the best healing factor?
*Me at 0:48: OH, so this is what we're talking about. I thought this was going to be the line of comics titled "Trinity" where Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman started having the same dreams and then Morgan Le Fey tried to steal their trinity essence something or rather.

You said in New 52 everything was merged. So was there no Earth 2 & 3 at this point?
Wait, so... Did DC fuck up their New 52 right from the start? I mean, the idea was to merge all the universes into one... and here's a multiverse crossover event...
did the phantom stranger die after zauriel erased him ?
I like how they bring constantine for now, kinda special like he's not like the other heroes, he rules da shit but I hope he doesn't stay too long and have his universe ruined by the mainstream heroes
Does it bother anybody else that he keeps saying "Zantanna?" Where's the extra N coming from? It's Zatanna.
Ultraman's costume seems to look so much better than Superman's New 52 costume.
Do I see Kick Ass in the thumbnail graphic?
Damn. Benny’s voice really has changed
can you do constantine origins ? and some other constantine stories or jld..?
Left out the part where constantine steals shazams (captain marvels) powers.
Shazam is only gonna have a problem with WW and supes. Aquaman in a desert is the worst combo.
What about justice league international?
What happened to the Teen Titans? Can you do video on what the teen titans were doing while all of this was happening? It also seems that the Cyborg is not part of the Teen Titans. As he is in the Justice League and he turns into Grid.
Do civil war
Perhaps you can explain the Crime Syndicate
ok, so when does this take place? what comes before and after it?
Hey dude you should really do a redo of this Trinity war and go more in depth
Could you please do a origins for mirror master that'd be awesome
Wow and I thought math class was hard to keep up with lol wait thiers math here!!!!! Lol
oh zantana said everyone get away from the box backwards
damn u barry for causing all of this mess
So what are the seven sins if they have nothing to do with the box?
Isn't Santana a band? I know Zatanna is a character but Santana is in this too?
Cyborg transforms to grid
Trinity War?
Sounds a lot like infinity war
you should do a story on new 52 JLA
Maybe it's the microphone, but Benny your voice changes quite a bit,
I'm no comic reader but which came first. Infinity War or Trinity War?
The story Infinity War was based off of came out way before Trinity War. It was titled Infinity Gauntlet if I remember correctly.
I have this comic and I came here to reassure myself cuz all the things that happen between the times 2:25 and 4:40 are not in my comic so where would I find them I am really confused please help
They are in many comics, just search trinity war reading order
This was my first event.
I was highly dissapointed.
The event was okay, but I hate how the ending was just a settup for the next event and made the rest of it moot
U never open Pandora's box!! Once it's open it's out, u can't put it back in n close it.
Reign of supermen storyline please
I'm confused can someone just tell me where it starts
Damnit Barry!
Is that kickass in the picture? Or is it another hero?
how does defeating darkseid create all the universes after the flashpoint event
Do a Batman Eternal please.
How did the baddies come from another universe if there is no longer a multiverse??
Bradatimrkonja There is still a multiverse, and a multiverse of multiverses
why is there no motion comic on youtube of WW3?
I'll never forgive DC for turning Constantine into just another super hero...
but...he isn't, he's just doing his stuff, sometimes that requires working with other people and their "saving the world" thing, but he usually do whatever he wants in the end, not caring what others want
yeah did you read the earth two series?
Darkseid is very powerful his death would warp time and cause this
Is my final answer
@@jamiecooper1513 After four years, you didn't edit this?

When darkseid was defeated, he weakened the barriers between the different earth's. So The Outsider and atom came through that barrier.

That wasn't catwoman, in the next issue it was shown to be Martian Manhunter in disguise, he planned it. And obviously a bullet couldn't kill Manhunter
How can there be multiple Earths if there is only one universe?
Different realities and dimensions
According to DC writers the DC Universe is a multiverse
DC Universe, Wildstorm, Vertigo were merged, but there's still a Multiverse. There's still an Earth-2, 3, and however Convergence works
nice !!!
I did not know Constantine was a DC character
Vertigo comics were combined with DC after Flashpoint
Do no man's land please I know it's not apart of rebirth but still
The first big event was Throne of Atlantis?
Nah, Throne of Atlantis didnt cross over all the DC books like Trinity War did.
Comicstorian oh ok it was still a pretty good story arc could you do a video on that? Since Throne of Atlantis lead up to the events that would shape Trinity War
No it was the origins storyline
