What's amazing about King Shark is that he's popular enough to have been adapted to multiple different film/television continuities, each one being a wildly different interpretation, and yet, _every time,_ he is easily one of the best parts of whatever media he is included in, regardless of his personality. What an absolutely fucking legendary character.

King Shark has got to be the most adaptive comic character ever, We have King Shark in some stories as some genric monster, and then we have him as a Lovable Tech Savy Lad. King Shark is now after seeing him in all his spotlight my favorite
It was originally not an earring, but an eartag. He was created in a laboratory. So before his powers kicked in he was tagged. Also since he as a mix of human and Kryptonian DNA his powers were weaker than a full blooded Kryptonian .
@@ajdn2013 He didn't get a full set of Superman's powers like the freeze breath until wayyyyyy later. Early on he was lifting things with telekinesis instead of super strength.
@@toepringles1388 The DC Life revealed a sneak peek of it. Heck I’ve seen dozens of TH-cam videos about how there’s an Injustice movie coming out soon.
He, Killer Croc, Orca, and some other hulking DC villains can be introduced via just a Grundy new skin import. Well, dialog too but that takes less work than the guys paid to do it act like it does... because they want paid more.
@@That80sGuy1972 Nah if Croc and King Shark are just skins for Grundy then that’s lazy as hell. Croc and Shark’s moves and attacks should be both water and eating/biting based as well as brute strength. I mean, what else do they have those sharp teeth for? Grundy doesn’t eat people. So he can be his own brute strength character like in Injustice 1. Killer Croc/King Shark should play a bit differently imo.
Harley Quinn show might be my favorite version of killer shark. he's just so funny and memorable imo. also the batman: assault on Arkham version was cool to.
“James Gunn’s King Shark seems to be a live action version of the Harley Quinn animated series King Shark” LMFAO NO 😂 The animated King Shark wears more clothing, is eloquent, intelligent, and pretty sweet most of the time. Gunn’s King Shark is shirtless, rarely speaks, and aloof most of the time even in dire situations. Night and day difference bro.
@@dion6495 I mean, even appearance wise he’s pretty different in my opinion… There’s only so many ways to mix a great white and a human. But animated Shark regularly wears clothes, glasses, and he reads stuff… he seems more human than shark. Gunn Shark is pretty animalistic and seems like a 50/50 mix personality-wise. Just my two cents but maybe you’re right, maybe he just means that physically they look alike… like the face and body shape.
I went to Kindle after 72 seconds of this video out of curiosity about your new comic, "Astonishing Times". I'll be honest with you, I wasn't really expecting much from it. I was wrong though and it is an intriguing first issue of what I hope will be a long run. It isn't perfect by any means but what is? It is close enough that I plan to make it a regular purchase, and I honestly can't remember the last time that happened with a new comic where I wasn't already familiar with the characters and world. The characters, well, the main character feels surprisingly real and relatable given the small number of pages he's been on so far and I already find myself rooting for him. One of the few things that disappointed me is that he's yet another mild mannered reporter, like there aren't enough of those in comics already! :o) All in all, an entertaining and well written first issue that has me hooked enough to cough up cash I can't really afford. Well done to all involved and please keep the standards high.
I heard he's great but most of the other characters in the movie are great also. So there is no one character that's carrying the film. Which is great news.
Was totally unfamiliar with this comic and movie character. What an awesome creation. I find the newer comic characters mostly copies and/or boring, but this guy is pretty awesome. I really like the fact he can go toe to toe w/ Aquaman, which I thought was impossible in the water. Finally someone who can even the scales. The movie does a great job creating a personality for him too. Strangely, he's very likeable - in a Venom- type way
Who elese been following these guys for years they present such amazing content. Right when you think you know everything about comics the will teach you something and humble you.
Yeah bro I just wanna say you do a great breakdown when you doing these origin comis origin comic videos and I love the music you use and every single one of your Episodes
King Shark delivers the most emotional lines in the movie. When he says “Bird” it hits hard in the feels
No man the better one was hand I cried when he said hand
💀💀
you all got it wrong the best one is at the end where he says “where go friend?”
All of you are wrong King Shark’s most emotional line is when he says “fake mustache”.
All of you are wrong. The most heartfelt part when he said "that's nomnom"

someone's interrupting his bloodbath tub time
just watched the film, he has cute dynamic with ratcather 2 as friends

Weird how king shark is more popular than the comic book series that created him
I think superboy is much more well known than king shark
@@Hobosdkcheese not after Harley Quinn and the suicide squad
I LOVED the 90's Superboy. That is what I think of whenever I hear about King Shark. "Ohhh I know his first stories!"
I'm looking at Superboy's haircut and thinking, "man, he looks like one of the Invincible alternates."
It was the early 90's.
"Hand" - King Shark
I don’t see how he’s such an amazing swimmer. Dude’s got a human shaped body and I don’t think a shark head really makes the difference lmao
Eh, its comic books, the same universe where a yellow sun can turn a human-like creature into something that can fight gods
@@scrufflesde-brickashaw333 and King Shark's powers are on par with Aquaman in water and Venom infused bane on land
Through out the whole movie I just could laugh at all King Shark hilarious scene "that's a Nom Nom" , "New Dumb Friends".. Nanaue you the bomb 🤣🤣!!

A guy investigating a legacy hero is basically an instant world and lore building.
It's hilarious that he thought that live action king shark is going to be similar to the Harley Quinn cartoon KingShark. Not even close.
If yall didn't know, King Shark is voiced by the legendary David hayter. So that's cool
King Shark is easily the cutest character I’ve seen in a movie next to Stitch
King Shark was so good in the film. I felt so much sympathy towards him in the film. Hope to see more of him.
Harley Quinn show might be my favorite version of killer shark. he's just so funny and memorable imo. also the batman: assault on Arkham version was cool to.
Thank you, after this can you do a history of Bloodsport, please.
Don't know much about him but from what I've heard he's a superman villain
Read the first issue of your comic. It was... Astonishing.
04:03 Wait a second. Thats an interesting beach for Superboy to be.
I read issue one of Astonishing Times. I really liked it. Definitely a must read and I can't wait to see how it ends.
