The books thing is actually a good idea, you know, water purification, medicine, farming technique, books on edible plants, books of maps, all really useful in an apocalypse. And if all else fails, you can bludgeon people with the complete works of Shakespeare
"Books are full of thinking!" Comic, I don't think you want to make that argument in a book whose existence and content directly contradict said argument.
The writers may have thought that the Captain's Log was just something Kirk did for himself to catalogue events so he could revisit them later. Admittedly, when I was younger (like around 10-12 or so, when I first discovered Trek), I thought the exact same thing and never actually considered, "oh, yeah, there's probably an actual reason he does them as a part of his job." The fact that, if this was just something Kirk did for funsies, then it would be kind of a weird coincidence that Picard and all the other captains also did it just slipped my mind. I also kept calling Spock an elf at that age (I knew what a Vulcan was, but my 10-year-old self was utterly convinced they were a type of Tolkien-esque elf species IN SPACE. Probably didn't help that I first discovered LotR around the same time. My dad eventually gave up on correcting me.), so I guess I really just had to grow up to actually understand Trek. Something these writers clearly didn't do. But that's obvious just from looking at the thing.
Probably because Fury Road came out much later and the orginal Road Warrior movie it was inspired by actually get svery little play in the US compared to Mad Max and Thunderdome
Why is the graffiti on the 'Great American Highway' sign BEHIND the lettering? Did the hoodlums avoid spray painting the letters so people could still read the sign? That's polite of the hoodlums.
SpitefulCrow yeah, it turns out the apocalypse makes people extremely and unrealistically nice. But only to people who spray paint. No one else. The apocalypse is weird like that.
Now I'm picturing this Power Rangers RPM like scenario where Grinders are murdering everybody but Venjix obliterates any who try and destroy a road sign.
Props for the candle cove reference. Why don't writers have an idea what parts of words mean? Geo means earth, etc. you can't make a geo magnetic capsule laser. I just thought of that during this.
20:15 This is what I hate in most mediums. Its that the medium "handwaves" itself because of crucial to even a technical flaw upon the medium. Worldbuilding is to help the audience of familiarizing what the characters are involved in. *NOT* to excuse plot holes or the failings in film. Superman 64: Kryptonite fog?
As a guy who once stopped to watch you on blip I'm so happy that you reupload all the stuff to youtube. Thank you, sir! Btw Wanted to write it before but usually the laziness is above my will.
Well, I'll defiantly admit that 2013 got stuff done. The March of the Titans stuff was really fun (mainly because I find the parts of the show talking about comic book history to often be the most interesting) and some of my favourite stuff, 2099 month was fun, and The Culling reviews (while they do drag on watching them back-to-back IMO) were pretty good. Although I do feel there were some drags in places, but then again, I wouldn't call 2013 one of my favourite years in general.
+Matt Lipton Agreed (Though pity we had to start it off with Kamandi) especially all the Titans reviews he did during the year. And we start my second or third favorite story-line with my third favorite character Nimue
"Books are full of thinking." Coming from the same writer who had Superman punch someone so hard that thier intestines fell out and had someone create twin clones of Hitler.
Spot on review. if this knock off sucked any harder, there would be no oxygen on earth. Leave the classics be! Jack Kirby would be violently ill if he saw this ill conceived counterfeit.
Is it just me, or does the battleplate look like a budget Borg cube? You know, like Borg who couldn't afford a full cube and got this ship at the galactic dollar store?
9:04 - Or Ayn Rand, EL James, Jeffrey Archer, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, Paris Hilton, Ann Coulter, Nicholas Sparks, Harold Robbins, Jacqueline Susann and L Ron Hubbard.
2:21 Can I take a moment to comment on the RIDICULOUS physiques of Ben Boxer and his merry men? They look like wads of chewed-up Slim Jims rearranged in the vague shape of human beings!
Funny thing is that the original Kamandi was a character who grew up in a library. He mentions it on the first page of his original comic. He read EVERYTHING he could get his hands on. He was very highly-educated, and desperate to protect what human knowledge survived the Great Disaster. This comic decided to just remove his brain, give him a leather jacket, guns, and...why does this have Kamandi's name on it again? Other than post-apocalyptia and a lack of hair-cutting scissors there's no resemblance between it and Kamandi. It's like Crazy Steve in All Star Batman and Robin.
If the apocalypse happened after some kind of geosynchronous satellite system was installed in 2050, why on earth does the TV in their vehicle still use VHS tapes?
Linkara, I don't recall if you mentioned this before. I know your feelings about Kamandi in Countdown (to Nothing) and in this Elseworlds, and I also know that you usually love the glorious cheese of the Silver Age, so what is your opinion of the original Kamandi the Last Boy?
Every next issue, Kamandi looks more and more like Snowflame. It would be awesome twist. At least better than this series Also - KAMANDI ON MOTORCYCLES! I appologize to Linkara, LittleKariboh and comedy in general.
To be fair to Kamandi, the amount of people who can drive a stick is pretty small without the apocalypse. You would have better luck trying to find someone who speaks Aramaic in Alabama than you would finding someone who can drive a manual.
+RenjiMaili Happy to say that I drive stick and I absolutely love it. If you have to sit in traffic on a daily basis then manual isn't for you but if traffic is not an issue for you then learn to drive stick, you'll never look back.
+Rob Korczak Learn to drive a stick and you can drive an automatic as well, you just have to remember about there being no clutch pedal ;) Plus, auto transmissions are bloody expensive to fix when they go wrong...

This comic is kind of Fascist. It goes on about killing mutants and how you can’t trust machines. Oh yeah, and shooting is the solution to all your problems.
Our three heroes. Very loosely using the word heroes, but thee was no other choise. No one likes to start his review with "Our three disapointments for the human race adn the comic book art...."

I fully believe that Saphira is the direct descendant of that reading obsessed girl from that Batman comic, now.

Mother Machine sounds like a rejected Captain N villain.
Machine Mother sounds like a heavy metal band.

Clearly, you've never read anything by Stephanie Meyer.
My favorite line in this review 😄
17:35 Oh great, Kamandi found Fury Road.
+FrenchPaul1988
Why, thank you. :]
Now we just need Max and Furiosa to come in and kill all these losers.
This comic did not die historic on the Fury Road
Probably because Fury Road came out much later and the orginal Road Warrior movie it was inspired by actually get svery little play in the US compared to Mad Max and Thunderdome

I'm pretty sure Saphira was propositioning Kamandi in that one panel, but he was too stupid to notice.
Yeah I thought that was what Linkara was going to joke about as well
(7:10) This is what happens when you go "Beyond Thunderdome."
"BA-DOM-" wait...
That random TF2 sniper moment.
+Kilofski Commercial bumpers when this was on Blip and I had a midroll. ^_~
Ah, t'was still funny. The hat suits you well. Well...it seems most hats suit you well.
I think my favorite TF2 moment of yours was that D20 game with Birdman, Roo, and Spoony with Lawrence the sniper-archer who wasn't that kind of thief.

Cant wait......since I liked most 2099 (well not Ravage or Hulk but he didnt do that one) I am curious how he wil eviscerate them)
A 40 miles wide road?! WTF suspension of disbelief is diffrent for every person. BUT 40 miles wide? from new york to san diego? Thats sooo insane.
Linkara does have a lovely singing voice.
"Books are full of thinking."
Coming from the same writer who had Superman punch someone so hard that thier intestines fell out and had someone create twin clones of Hitler.
Is it me or "a girl obsessed with reading anything with words on it" sounds like she is one of Batman's mentally deranged foes in Arkham Asylum?
Well, there was that girl from the Batman reading PSa....
The Bookworm from 66 says HI
Spot on review. if this knock off sucked any harder, there would be no oxygen on earth. Leave the classics be! Jack Kirby would be violently ill if he saw this ill conceived counterfeit.
Jeez, then it'd be the same issue with the creator of Captain America looking at Rob Liefeld's "interpretation".
7:32 He's got a point, she's got a pointer.
Is it just me, or does the battleplate look like a budget Borg cube? You know, like Borg who couldn't afford a full cube and got this ship at the galactic dollar store?
Kamandi's favorite show WOULD be static...
I'd totally expect a Tweet war between the president and Ben Boxer. It would be like a meeting of the minds....
Reminds me a bit of Cobra Comandeers giant battleship
9:04 - Or Ayn Rand, EL James, Jeffrey Archer, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, Paris Hilton, Ann Coulter, Nicholas Sparks, Harold Robbins, Jacqueline Susann and L Ron Hubbard.
Aw come on Linkara, can't we get beyond Thunder Road?
I remember Candle Cove! I loved that show.
10:26 Damn it Linkara! I was just about to make that joke!
2:21 Can I take a moment to comment on the RIDICULOUS physiques of Ben Boxer and his merry men? They look like wads of chewed-up Slim Jims rearranged in the vague shape of human beings!
The Robotnik joke still kills me to this day.
Holy sh*t I have watched tons of his videos but NEVER thought he would have such an amazing singing voice :O
Since the graffiti is _under_ the words, does that mean that "The Great American Highway" is the actual graffiti?
Funny thing is that the original Kamandi was a character who grew up in a library. He mentions it on the first page of his original comic. He read EVERYTHING he could get his hands on. He was very highly-educated, and desperate to protect what human knowledge survived the Great Disaster.

15:25 is it just me, or is the graffiti somehow *under* the print on the sign?
man, the automotive industry really must have taken over post apocalypse to get that thing made
If the apocalypse happened after some kind of geosynchronous satellite system was installed in 2050, why on earth does the TV in their vehicle still use VHS tapes?
In this world Betamax won the war for tapes and thus destroying so many companies that DVD were never put into mass production
Pre-recorded tapes, they'd be useless for "new" broadcasts like you suggest.
2013 was my first full year of AT4W, so yeah good year
Holy hell, I had completely forgotten about Candle Cove
5:30- And this guy must have been in the Marvel Universe, according to the Punisher and X-Men patches on his jacket.
Probably the best issue of the 3 so far
Jeez Linkara! Candle Cove?! That's a really dark joke!
"Here ... Pull my finger."
Dr. Robotnik in a sombrero...
*PINGAS!!!*
10:06 - 10:21 Oh crap! Did he say Candle Cove?! DX
12:58 super freak reference
Ten years of the third issue review of Kamandi
First episode with endcards
Linkara, I don't recall if you mentioned this before. I know your feelings about Kamandi in Countdown (to Nothing) and in this Elseworlds, and I also know that you usually love the glorious cheese of the Silver Age, so what is your opinion of the original Kamandi the Last Boy?
I feel like this concept could have made a good 90's movie.
Every next issue, Kamandi looks more and more like Snowflame. It would be awesome twist. At least better than this series
Also - KAMANDI ON MOTORCYCLES! I appologize to Linkara, LittleKariboh and comedy in general.
This man made a candle cove reference🤣🤣🤣🤣
10:21 lol, it's probably bad that I understood that reference, but
Oh right. I nearly forgot about that stupid Mayan Calendar thing.

Why does this comic remind me of Mad Max, namely Beyond Thunderdome, Road Warrior and Fury Road?
Because it rips them all off....BADLY
