Thanks for doing a remaster of the X-Men. Even after 25 years of reading comics, they're still my favorite comic book team of all time.
Rob, I have my own production company and I have done many documentary style productions, and I like to say I appreciate the professionalism and the seriousness in which you take your audience. Your channel is growing because you take pride in what you do and your "very consistent" with content. If you continue to do what your doing with same care and dedication you have always done. I see you as a stand out "You Tuber" at some point and you become the model in which others follow in putting out You Tube content of this nature. Always know your strengths don't try and do too many things, stay a specialist, and before you know it you will become an authority. I believe you are building something very special here, I hope you know that as well. Thanks
Totally agree. Though in the interest of constructive critique: The show could be even better with some truncated audio. Before you add the video, I would suggest doing another audio pass. Take out the "um"'s, "sorry, I meant"'s and any unnecessary "what we see"'s. They make great opportunities to arrange your thoughts during freeform speaking, which you do quite well. But removing particle words after recording will add an extra layer of polish. You sound more concise and professional, shorter run times encourage more viewers, and the increased quality speaks to your professionalism and credibility. Give it a shot if u have time with your next video. (Note: as with every film "rule" there are exceptions. If the dialogue doesnt flow right, leave the particle in.)
Alaethancar and romanfilmgod - great, constructive comments. Kind of a rarity on YT so I wanted to commend ya
mamalo.
Look where he at now
I considered myself to be well-versed in comics, especially x-men comics, but Rob I must thank you. You have enlighten me to the status of mutants. The reason they are feared so much is because mutant powers can range from something as simple as flying to something as devastating as forced spontaneous combustion of a living being(just a thought). They aren't limited to the circumstances that gave them their powers at all
They are not real so don’t worry your safe 😂
@@maxtwentynine5968 comic fans are so cringe xD
X-Men are better than the avengers
Hell yeah!
just not the movies =[
tcturtle89 fuck movies my mate. comics source is best. fox fucked up all movies
agassi joel watch Logan
agassi joel Marvel just got the xmen and ff back!!!!!
Can you do a video on storm? She's like the best x men member and one of the most iconic.
the best in your opinion
My favorite fictional character of all time.
I like ur picture poison ivy
Thanks love.
Good suggestion, Ivy. Storm was always amazing.
You left out one thing that most people don't know about the X-Men franchise. The X-Men was intended to relate to the Civil Rights Movement making each of the major characters resembling some of the most inspirational and influential people in the Civil Rights Movement.
That came about when Chris Claremont took over though
That's why the Claremont era is so iconic.
you should do a video about the "God loves, man kill" storyline
Great explaination of the Xmen's history. Claremont is writing the treatment for the Gambit movie, yet, his attempts to get back into writing them again are so watered down & lackluster compared to what he used to write at the height of his tenure writing the X-men.
I love how professor X takes Storm away from providing life-giving water to her people. Lol. What a jerk.
Man, this old theme and intro is so nostalgic now, I love it.
Great recap. :) The X-men are my favorite heroes in all comics. They have such an interesting evolution and the current Uncanny X-men comics are among the best in ongoing series imo, albeit a little slow.
Hi Rob, great video. I noticed an inaccuracy though: In the Giant-Size X-Men Second Genesis story, the original X-Men had not yet formed X-Factor. The new team are recruited by Xavier to rescue the original team from the living island Krakoa (this is actually Xavier's second attempt to create a new team, as shown later in Deadly Genesis). It wasn't until the real Jean Grey had returned, after the Dark Phoenix Saga, that the original X-men decided to regroup and create X-Factor.
Chris Low Thanks for that correction. No idea how I missed it! lol
MarvelExplained yeah, x factor came like 15 years later. And jean was a big part of the team at the time, until she died of course in the dark phoenix storyline, plus the other old members appeared a lot too, on and off ( especially angel, havok, polaris etc.)
Chris Low Beast, Iceman and Angel all went on to the New Defenders for a stint, before X-Factor was formed. As well, Beast went to the Avengers.
Chris Low YOU ARE CORRECT!!!! I was just going to post that. That was the only glaring gripe that I had with this explanation for real.
+Ion-SHIVs iceman and angel were members of the champions as well
Dark Phoenix Saga, God Loves Man Kills, Mutant Massacre, Extinction Agenda, Age of Apocalypse, House of M, Messiah Complex, Messiah War and Decimation are some of the pinnacles of comic book story telling ever including Marvel and DC
That was a great start to the video with that song man
No mention of Grant Morrisson's run? I thought you were ramping up to it. Marvel draft's one of DC's best writers to helm one of the most character driven runs. Morrisson explored deeply into the character's of Cyclops, Wolverine, Beast,Jean, Xavier, and he introduced some of the more colorful new students you still see today the Stepford Cuckoos, No-Girl, Ernst, Glob, Angel Salvatore (made it into First Class movie), and Quentin Quire who was played a pivotal role in the Schism event
Morrisons run is > Chris Claremonts run!!
Ps: no mention of my main man Fantomex!!?
@@johnnyscifi ?
Apocalypse and Mr Sinister are two of my favorite characters in all of comics and media in general
4:35 enter comrade Claremont 9:03 we switch to my favorite and thank you comrade rob
Your videos are just _Insane_ in their quality man. I mean, dear lord, from the quality of your voice and script, to your quality sources, to your ability to synthesize so much information in such a quality, informative way. Just fantastic, thank you for this!
Cyclops wasn't a member of X-Factor at that time, X-Factor wasn't created then. The Original X-Men team had been captured by the living island and Xavier assembled a new team to go out and save them, that was the reason for the new team from within the X-Men comic book.
Stan Lee and Jack Kirby were geniuses !!!!
This was extremely helpful for someone that decided to pick up x-men comics only in 2015 after having watched the films. So much content I had no idea where or why I should even begin at what. Now I do though, thank you.
6 ads in a 20 min vid. This is getting rediculous.
Thanks for making this video. I was collecting xmen comics up until Age of Apocalypse storyline. So, been wanting to get back into their story.
I miss the old videos man that music ... them screen transitions glad to see you improve on every side but I miss this every now and then rob . Also I noticed you say SO. in the beginning of every video I love it.
Thanks for the recap. I’ve read these stories but I love to jump into videos like these to kill some time during breaks at work
Hi Rob. Congratulations, great vídeo. Keep it up. You're seen in Portugal!
I love the Marvel Universe all together, especially the X-Men. I didn't follow the comics religiously and tuned into the 90's tv cartoon adaptation. This video makes me want to tap the comic book part of it. Especially with the "House of M" explanation and creative character depth.
Is it just me or does Cyclops have so many alternate universe kids that he doesn't know what to do with.
Love this remastered series your doing! It makes me feel so good about the channel knowing that your willing to update ur content when it needs it or the quality is lacking! Man you the best rob!
Omg Rob from 9 years ago sounds so soft spoken. Its wild
Magneto had his own comic years back from what I understand and few others as well.
Just want to say, the dedication shown to these videos is commendation worthy..
I've always wanted a history of Marvel comics and on this I finally have it and the fact you're improving the old videos is incredible, I'm so impressed by this channel...
Good luck in the future pal, keep up the awesome work!
Has anyone else seen the Amazon Prime original "Chris Claremont X-Men"? I'm here from that even though I've been watching Rob's videos for years
0:00 A legend was born
Rob this is the calmest I have ever heard you lol love the video
Still rewatching this in 2024 😊
Thanks for x-plaining it for us
Rob thank you! Your videos are almost as good as reading the comics Can't wait to see all the remastered content.
Your videos are great. I don't have to read all the huge articles on marvel database or wikipedia where I get distracted by characters and events I didn't know yet. And the intro is dope.
Liked it before I even watched it lol
this video was great. saved me a lot of time. Also you have a very easy to listen to voice.
Hey Rob, love all of your content please don’t stop. Was just wondering if you had a video of the entire fatal attractions story or maybe you knew where I could read it online. Thanks hope you continue the great videos!!!
What's the song playing in the opening? Great vids btw
☼ that intro is unsurpassed. idk why you didnt make it permanent.
ROB!!! Bring the old intro back plzzzzzz
Holy nostalgia Batman. I missed this intro music
Hey Rob, recently been trying to catch up with the X-Men and thought I'd mention that I really like the intro song in this video. Consider bringing it back 🤙🏽
you forgot to mention Marc Silvestri, the best X-Men artist
I'm sorry for being dumb, but what is the reading order? I have googled it but couldn't find a define answer. Would really like to get involved in the x-men universe.
This was awesome!
I started marvel with the xmen, with cyclops more precisely. I will always be a xman fanboy because of nostalgia
Have you done a video specifically for Rogue?
storm was so hot
It took the first X-Men movie for me to get into the comics.
Once I did, they became one of my favorite Marvel superteams.
I know its a comic book so maybe this is a dumb question, but is there a reason why Humans hate & fear the Xmen more than other supeheroes, specifically the Avengers. It seems kinda silly why the Xmen are more dangerous than non-mutant superheroes.
It's because human superheros are well... humans, where mutants are considered the next evolutionary phase and with all human evolution the more advanced breed kills off the last generation and that's what scares normal people.
Superheroes acquire their powers. Mutants are born with them. Humans don't want to become extinct to mutants, hence the fear
x-men plots have inspiration from the civil rights movement.
Daycow417 yeah but that has to do more with how they deal with Humans fearing/attacking them. He's asking where the fear if them originally stems from
Luis Castillo . . . . . .The civil rights movement. Stan Lee himself made the comparison. People fear and hate what they perceive to be different. That is the basis
I don’t like the long intro but I still hit like because it’s still a great video
Who/what is that music at the beginning of this video? I need to know I love it!
Sick intro my man
What a coincidence another RUclips Chanel uploaded a {Xmen themed} video Today also.
what a coincidence another Human being is breathing right now.
awesome... and what's with the deadpool in the end..? lol...
love that Rob gets muddled over X Factor. such a cute mistake x
i miss these videos so much
I loved watching this and hearing the last bit with hox and pox being a thing today. I love the X-men, thank you Hickman for your brain!
Seeing your channel grow is just awesome. :)
Why this nigga so professional with this?? Keep it up I like dat best on RUclips hands down
You're a little off on the timing of X-Factor and Scott Summers leading the new X-Men from Giant Size X-Men #1. All the other teammates were captured leaving Scott to bring more mutants to Krakoa. After that the original team decided to lead normal lives leaving Scott alone with the new group.
Please do a video on Cyclops if you can; that would be really interesting.
My favourite Marvel comics team EVER!
I dig the intro.
Wating for the day Rob does one on Fatal Attractions arc....would be amazing.
Much appreciated information, never heard of the Stryker graphic novel. Looking forward to the read.
The intro to this was dope
Magick and Nightcrawler should become heralds of Apocalypse ;-)
Character-driven stories will always be more interesting to a large readership than story-driven characters.
From now on you shall be known as Professor Jefferson, thanks this was amazing!
great video,so much context.
Hey Rob, how bout revitalizing this 💪🏾
Blink and James howlette. If you could explain about the connexion between the first aoa and the future return to it? If you could explain the pros and cons of retcon?what is your opinion of retcon. What is your opinion of the massive cross overs such as avengers vs x-men. Not the new one. I'm talking about the old 80's one. What about ff vs x-men ?
You should seriously create a DCXplained man, for sure. Do you only like Marvel, and is DC just not your cup of tea? You are among my top 3 comic youtubers [along with variant, and comicstorian], and I would love your in-depth guides/explanations, and opinions on DC as well as Marvel It would be seriously amazing. Is it just a matter of not having enough time to simultaneously run a DC-Xplained concurrently with this channel without degrading the content?
P.S could you give me a couple youtube channel recommendations, on various topics, from comics to w/e you think is extremely interesting? Something tells me you must have some sweet channels you like, which I have yet to experience!
Rob. You are the best there is at what you do, and what you do is very nice. Indeed
I love this old introduction
Can you please tell me the song name to use in the opening and i love your all videos
The song is called Short change hero :)
Hi rob loved the vid ! Never knew there were sooo many mutants !! Keep up the great work btw can u do a video on the black panther and his origins?
Thanks Mr . Fifa
My comment is late. I didn't get into actually reading X-Men until recently, my question though is, should I start from X-Men vol 1? I would rather follow a storyline instead of jumping around and just seeing random characters and stories I know nothing about
Just started House of M last week. I kept seeing that title scroll across your intro.
Are you reading the comic or watching a video? Because if you are watching it then can you please reply back with a link. I'm pretty interested in what happened to all the mutants
It's a GREAT story!!
kenneth1win ok so the house of m reality reverted back, but Scarlet Witch went nuts and said no more Mutants, depowering most mutants, there wer 198 known mutants left. BUT, that means KNOWN, so no one knows if there were more (which there probably were). House of M is being revisited next year in marvels New version of Secret Wars we're alternate realities were combined together to recreate Battleworld. ALSO, this event will probably retcon all the time travel and alternate realities and combine them into one and recreate the multiverse. They Wil also probably retcon the awful Spiderman story lines Sins Past and One More Day.....secret wars will most likely "reboot" the marvel universe without rebooting continuity. Also, when I mentioned House of M being a part of it I mean that that reality still exists, because as long as a reality exists it replicates itself (because of decisions made and time travel) meaning that realities like Days of Future Past , Earth X, Age of Apocalypse and many more still exist
kenneth1win Hey there I am reading them on comixology :) I love that app on my kindle!!!
I would like to know how Wolverine regained his adamantium after Fatal Attraction please. Thanks for the videos by the way much obliged.
Great Job. very thorough
and this is why I like the X-Men . Nuff Said .
In Rob we trust!
MarvelExplained Cyclops didn't return to the X-Men from X-Factor. The original team (Cyclops, Havok, Beast, Iceman, Angel, Marvel Girl and Polaris) detected a mutant via Cerebro and went to the island of Krakoa to meet this new mutant and all but Cyclops were captured by the living island. The new team was the second attempt at rescuing the remaining captured X-Men. X-Factor came after the combined teams defeated Krakoa.
Love the intro
The good old days ❤
There were other events that killed off mutant characters in the X-Men saga, one being notable was the aftermath of the Legacy virus. I remember when Pyro died from it in an issue of X-Force iirc. Many notable characters were killed by the virus (or created by the strain that mutated non-mutants and gave them powers). This was one of Marvel's beginning attempts to thin out the character population. Another well-known character that died as a result of Legacy was Kwannon, who had her body switched w/ Psylocke by Spiral in Mojo's Body Shoppe. Kwannon became Revanche, and had Matsuo Tanaka kill her when she discovered that she had the Legacy virus. Of course Legacy was a result of the X-cutioner's Song storyline, which was mentioned in the video, but I think that Legacy should have been talked about a bit.
Very cool rob thanks for researching everything story time rules
What's the name of that's song in the beginning and then the one at the end?
X Men are probably the more interesting X-Men team in history.
Hello Rob, You've suggested that many of us post any requests we might have leading up to The Age of Apocalypse, so I've finally narrowed mine down to one character.
For as long as I've been an X-men fan, probably the most confusing or the most tough to follow for me might be Emma Frost and the reason why is this. I haven't kept up with more recent stories in the past 10 to 15 years but when I try to, she's a leader of the X-men and Scott Summers lover. I have to admit that I've become baffled on how this could be. When I knew Emma Frost, she was more known as the White Queen. She was most known to me as one of the main members of the Hell Fire Club directly side by side with Sebastian Shaw. If I'm not mistaken, she may have saw sometime with the Brother Hood of Evil Mutants. However, I do remember that she was reformed at some point but I never knew how but she was leading Generation X next to Banshee, while training young mutants. Emma Frost has always become a mystery to me in terms of climbing the ranks within the X-men. While it seems like nobody trusts her, it always seems she allowed both her power and physical appearance to get close to a number of X-men. I was hoping that you might help me through this.
I miss this intro.
It's not a bad into
Hey Rob! Could you explain the siege perilous and its relationship with the X-Men?
My first comic was the mutant massacre. Then I went back and read previous issues.
