I HATE the Storm and Wolverine pairing, yes I love T'Challa and Ororo as a pairing for the same reasons u said plus we can name on 1 hand how many black couples we have, even when things are bad between them it feels like the writers are manufacturing a split opposed to servicing the plot, as of they've got a mandate to not have them together. That's all without discussing how Wolverine truly makes no sense as his best partner and vice versa and I am a big X head

I love that you gf have u these ideas all my best ideas get vetted by my lady

Personally for me Peter Parker Spider-Man and Mary Jane are a great marriage couple and having them be with their daughter mayday Parker spider-girl are amazing story and ten times better then this terrible Paul character that nobody liked myself included and personally I wanted Paul to go away and never ever comeback period at least in my opinion.

You’re so real for the Nightwing pick. That was my first time reading his books in single issues, and it’s stuck in my mind for a great new created love interest

Nuclear fucking take, but Wally and Linda as a couple annoy me to no end. Just the constant regurgitation of "hurr durr yurr muh lightning rod" smooch smooch over and over again gets lame really quickly

Thanks for watching y’all, I appreciate! Just wanted to let y’all know just in case y’all aint aware lol this is MY opinion, heavy emphasis on MY, this is all in fun with Valentine’s Day coming up, don’t take it too serious if I talk about your favorite couples!

Felicia has always said Peter is one of the most important people in her life. As a friend and Ex and Friends with Benefits. Even in her solo run by Jed Mackay Spidey has always helped her and has her back. And you can't deny the chemistry between them even when they are not dating they're always there for eachother

Wolverine only good as a quickie one night mistake is cracking me upppp 😭💀💀

This new Nightwing run has me hooked and excited in a way I haven't been for a long long time man. You pretty much said everything I had in mind better than I could. Idk if you remember that short Jamal Campbell Nightwing story The Director but this new villain reminds me of that person they set up for the cliffhanger of that story. If that story thread ends up going nowhere I'd just like to headcanon that this new villain is that same guy but in a new outfit or something lol. Loved the video as always brother!

Been loving this series so far, the style is really cinematic and Mark Waid is the writer so I don't even have to say what I think of the writing. My only thing is that I don't know how this is going to fit in with Dixon's Robin Year One, especially with both stories taking place roughly around the same time (I think this one would take place just before that one, Gordon is meeting Robin for the first time here) and both stories having Harvey as a major villain. Loved the review bro!

Gonna have to check out Ram V's Tec, Bitter Root and Reckless after seeing this video. You know how biased I am about this but Nightwing the Untouchable is always the first comic I recommend any of my friends hahaha

Everything Batman I've read from Ed Brubaker (except Gotham Central I still have to read that one) has been gold. I know you mentioned Murderer/Fugitive but the first volume of his run was really really solid too. I also loved his Man Who Laughs story with the retelling of the first Joker confrontation (Doug Mahnke's art is always great too). Aside from that my favorite that not a lot of people talk about is Batman 423 but yeah as you mentioned there is a barrier with it being old. City of Crime is also super solid in my opinion. Great video man!

Yooo this just popped up on my feed, glad to see you're doing other types of comic content bro!

I hated bendis superman run so much why mostly because he had ruined everything with Superman and my favorite family and my boy Jonathan Samuel Kent superboy and I miss my boy jon being his little 10 year old self and I miss Superman being with his family with his wife Lois lane and his son Jonathan Samuel Kent superboy so much, and it still drives me insane that bendis had the awful idea of having my boy Jonathan Samuel Kent superboy being tortured by a mad man like Ultraman for years and aged up for garbage stories like his awful legion book that nobody liked myself included and its also not fair that we lost basically my favorite team the super sons with Jonathan Samuel Kent superboy as his little 10 year old self and Damian wayne robin just for bendis to write his awful young justice book and his awful interpretation of the superman family which was just crap on so many levels it ain't even funny but just sad and depressing in my opinion. Also the whole secret identity reveal was also a terrible idea that made no sense and was freaking garbage that i am glad was retconned out of existence and i was so happy about that, but unfortunately that change could be undone but nobody wants to retcon this stupid Jonathan Samuel Kent superboy aged up garbage and give us back the real Jonathan Samuel Kent superboy back to his little 10 year old self and i will never understand why DC won't undo this mistake in my opinion. In conclusion I am glad you enjoyed bendis superman run more then I did because at the end of the day we all have are own opinions. :)

These Superman discussions are just what I needed. I hope more people see them and get a new perspective. I didn't want to dive into this run because of how controversial it is.

I think when you see people hate on Bendis' run, you have to factor in peoples love for Supersons. Those people weigh the loss of that series to "was what Bendis did worth it?" It tips the scales. Plus its combined with his JL run and Naomi then compared to his Marvel work. People may have expected him to come to DC and create these universe changing events like his Marvel work. They look at all that and not just take the run for what it was on its own

As a 55 year reader of Superman (I have every issue of Action since 401 and #228 of the first Superman title, I respectfully disagree, but totally believe in everyone liking what they like unapologetically! I really respect you putting out something on YT as a new creator that is going to be contrary to the mainstream opinion. I do agree Bendis was better than Tom Taylor writing Jon, but that’s a low bar for me! I will be checking out more videos!

I love when people dive deeper into underrated runs. Subbed. Keep it up man 💯

giving Bendis a compliment always feels off, but is it a lie tho lol

Bendis is overhated. He reinvented Spider-Man for the 21st century with his ultimate run and made Avengers into a household name in comics. He doesn’t wasn’t to write safe stories

bendis and peter j tomasi run is so great it makes read superman comics non stop u gotta read busiek run too bro it's also underrated and please make a video about it

I've never read this run but I've about the many controversial things from it. Like it being the reason John got aged up? Definitely intrigued by this video.

I think Bendis got overhated during his run because he did what he does best: Break the status quo, and find a unique perspective on a character. It won’t work for everyone, but if you’re trying to pleasing everyone, you did something wrong.

COOOKKKKKK!! 👨🏾‍🍳

Honestly, especially when it comes to Batman comics, I think the best way to get someone hooked is to just give them a random back issue that's part 3 of 6 or something like that. You read it having no clue what came before, no clue what came after, and a bunch of stuff and characters get referenced that you have no context for. And I think that setup can really encourage people to go around and build their knowledge based on wanting to understand a random reference that interested them.

adding to the read list

streets need them Power Ranger reviews for sure

Read all these runs except for the newest stuff but still I enjoyed listening to someone talk about Batman runs in a positive light.

if you don't mind me asking, where did your gf get the shirt cause that's my entire child hood on a T.

Finally!! Someone who likes the Murderer/Fugitive storyline. I thought I was the only one.

Great content. Dope shirt. Ultimate Black Panther has been really good, Ultimate Spider-Man has been decent but slow, and I’m late to the Ultimates but it’s been phenomenal.

great list! i recommend working Peter J. Tomasi's Batman and Robin in alongside Snyder's run and the end of Morrison's run, also want to say i get why its controversial but Tom King's run is definitely worth reading at least once, and James Tynion IV's Detective Comics run that ran alongside it is excellent (better than Tynion's Batman run imo)

Deniz Camp praise, I’ve been summoned. Loved your takes, especially critique on USM. I appreciate Hickman’s past work, but something isn’t hitting in the way that I expect from his works. Much to think about

Wasn’t it Azrael who was Batman in knightfall saga, not nightwing?

I think someone starting Batman should read Dark Moon Rising and The Man who Laughs after Year One, since they all connect between each other and Year One, maybe also some issues of Legends of the Dark Knight since they are set in Batman early years

My absolute favorite Batman villain is Ra’s al Ghul, so The Lazarus Affair (1981, Batman 332-335, uncollected as yet, I believe), Son of the Demon (fantastic), Bride of the Demon, and Birth of the Demon (not as good in my opinion, but still worthwhile, especially with Birth giving, I believe, the first origin of Ra’s).

Impressive catalog. Looks like I'm going to comic shop next week 😊

While I respect your opinion, I find it interesting so many informed comic book readers have such a negative opinion of Hush. It’s the equivalent of a Fast and Furious installment (the very best ones), a blockbuster whose main plot thread (who is Hush?) exists just to bring all (or most) of Batman’s foes and friends together to explore his relationships with them. The story can only go so deep because of how much is squeezed in and how fast it moves. The actual climax and resolution of the mystery is rather anticlimactic and underwhelming - the story peaks with the Jason Todd/Clayface confrontation in the penultimate issue. But the story does a great job of showing a new reader why Batman rules (the opening few pages are an amazing introduction of Batman as if seeing him for the first time) and this story ushered in the modern era of the Bat-God, as Grant Morrison would call him

I like the character's concept because it's a brilliant callback to the end of the Killing Joke but I think the stories where he's featured and the writing for him specifically arent as good

Great video, honestly surprised when I checked the sub count that there wasn't a k at the end of that 168, criminally underrated

Killing Joke and Dark Knight Returns are two must reads.

The Untold Legend of the Batman is a good starting point for new readers in my opinion. It is a great recap of Batman and his relationship to his villains. The story has a well plotted mystery, with fascinating secrets to be revealed!

As someone who is wanting to get more into the Batman comics this video was extremely helpful thanks a lot bro, amazing video also. Your channel was a nice discovery, thanks again TH-cam algorithm 👍

Really great video and so many good recs! I've read & know like most of these except Gothic & a few runs. Also I think Grant Morrison gets nearly every character he wrotes lol.

You forgot to include All Star Batman and Robin! 😆 (just kidding, don't hate me in the comments). Great list though! I am a little surprised The Dark Knight Returns or The Killing Joke are not mentioned but it hasn't aged as well for some people, so I can kind of understand. Also think Gotham by Gaslight should be an honorable mention.

There's a lot of bad things in the New 52 (I'm talking to you, Wonder Woman), but also, the New 52 is what got me into reading DC. Green Lantern is my favorite DC character and he stayed the same before and during the New 52 because Geoff Johns was the main writer, but still, he was amazing. The Justice League wasn't very successful before the New 52, but it became the flagship title during this era. Batman was pretty much the same before the New 52 because of Grant Morrison. People call the New 52 a failure, but to honest, it sold more than anything DC has ever done before the New 52. Because it was a reboot, it was a fresh start (except for Green Lantern and Batman, they stayed the same and the only thing that changed was how they met, and their suits design). But honestly, when it comes to New 52 Superman, I really hated his relationship with Wonder Woman, just...WHY DID THEY HAVE TO BE A COUPLE ?.

Morrisons Batman and Robin is one of my all time favorites too. Frank Quietlys art in the first arc is some of the best and fits the story perfectly

Awesome Batman reading order! But a little correction about Heart of Hush, that under the cowl of Batman is still Bruce Wayne! One of the great Dark Knight stories featuring Dick Grayson is Scott Snyder's Batman Black Mirror.
