I'm currently writing an interconnected story which I would personally called "KIRBY-YASIR VERSE" because I'm using mostly the Kirby created characters for DC Comics... 1. New Gods: The Fourth World (the story of new genesis and apokolips new gods, will have some spinoff such as Orion and Highfather's Council, Mr Miracle, Forager: Life of a Bug, Vayla II, Big Barda and Female Furies and etc 2. Old Gods: Before the Fourth World (prequel story to new gods and spin-off to origin of Highfather and Darkseid) 3. Forever People (a new take on the same characters) 4. Guardian (Jim harper, the newsboy Legion, Boys commandos, project cadmus story) 5. Challengers of the Unknown (a new take on the same characters) 6. OMAC (One Man Army Corps story using Buddy Blank and GPA) 7. Kamandi: The Last Boy (a new origin and his connection in this whole story) 8. Demon (Etrigan, Klarion and Morgaine in a new take on these characters) 9. Atlas (new origin to the character) 10. Magnar: The Hope of Forgotten (new gods character new take, with using Jimmy olsen) 11. Kobra (a Kirby creation) 12. Mr Scarlet (another kirby creation) 13. Dingbats of Danger Street (a short lived comic of Kirby in DC revive in a new take) 14. The Losers (continuation of Kirby's the Losers) 15. The Sandman (new origin for the Garrett Sandford) 16. Manhunters (continuation of Kirby's run) All these stories will be having a connection and these stories won't feature any flagship heroes of DC... And this story won't interfere with any of DC continuity
i want to know who they are not who made them. tell me names powers that stuff im reading the injustice comic the new gods show up bad guys bow down and no 1 explains why......
Ahh.... Faust is back and he's talking about obscure yet awesome characters, all is right. Also you hit the mark, comics are such an open medium writers can do anything, and we should take advantage of that.
+Gravivector I would start with New Gods issue 9 where Orion and light ray come to earth and are hiding out in a woman’s apartment. There would be no tie in with superman or any other super hero. The history of these characters are revealed and the Bug and Mister Miracle are introduced with again issue 9 of mister miracle as a spring board. The character warns that earth will be soon invaded by the legions of Darkseid and that are here to stop him. There is indeed an invasion and the characters help to drive off the invasion force. I would not get into all the sub plots and characters from the comics, but just a good action packed movie about good defeating evil. ( until the evil build up strength to try again). the theme of this movie or series of movies will be science fiction and not a super hero fantasy.
no way, these fantasy characters should be left out, perhaps batman could be more relavent. remember we are trying to make a sci fi movie not a super hero fantasy.
Well. Glad to see you're alright buddy. Got us really worried. If you don't fell like telling what happen is OK. Looking forward for your future work :3
I just found your video while looking for more info on The New Gods story arc (for no good reason) and this just warms my heart so much. I started my comic collection not long after you posted the video and I must say, my two exceptions in buying comics are as follows, -if it's Kirby, buy it & if it's New Gods, buy it. I try every day to get my (non-comic) friends to love Jack Kirby a little more for his immense gift and gifts to all of comic kind. Keep loving New Genesis, Apokolips and their creator--The King--Jack Kirby
Another important thing you should have mentioned is that theres only 1 version of the new gods in the entire DC multiverse, no matter which universe there is in the DC multiverse the new gods will be exactly the same as they exist beyond the multiverse.
Highfather - Morgan Freeman / Avia - Gong Li / Orion - Liev Schreiber / Metron - Gary Oldman / Himon - Paul Giamatti / Madame Nature - Gwendoline Christie
Thanks so much for this summary. I had heard of them every now and then. In the past, they had appeared in Superman and Seven Soldiers, but I really didn't know much about them. Wiih their appearence in New 52 Wonder Woman and especially Earth 2, I wanted to learn more about them.
ItsSuperEffective Hmmm... Oh well :) I have just one more question to You. Are You going to talk about new comics of Guardians of the Galaxy, escpecialy those with Venom?
I have been reading comics for about two or three years now however I have not got a full series are there any new ones that you would suggest (prefer DC)
Ivor Owen Well Wonder Woman's New 52 series is amazing, I'd also recommend picking up anything written by Jeff Lemire, Geoff Johns, Scott Snyder, Charles Soule, and Cullen Bunn. I'd also say you should check out Batman/Superman starting with issue 16, Vibe had a really good 10 issue series, and the first 4 trades of the Flash are really good.
orion, high father, darkseid, kalibak, steppenwolf,metron,the forever people,big barda, light ray,mister miracle, hundreds of thousands of unnamed new gods.
i don't think its that. i think its mainly that he doesn't have the time to answer everyone's questions and hopes someone else answers them (correctly)
Love the new gods i especially love the old one like darkseid's dad epic character. I am still a big confused how they are now in the new 52 since it is said they are singularities yet it seems there are two darkseids and two highfathers. Now i am hearing they are simply emaciations of them in the multiversers but they exist on a different plane. Yet when i see the multiverse map that means being like the spectre are also singularities then i guess. Forgive me i rambled but i am so confused at times about DC/Marvel cosmics.
Despite Darkseid insane power he isn't the gravest threat to DC universe there alot more beings who are 1 being his own father the first ever New God Yuga Khan.
this video doesn't tell me anything about who the new gods actually are. what's their purpose? why are they called gods? i thought Darkseid was just another JL villain, how does he fit into this? these are the answers I was looking for.
Ryan Jay the new gods darkside and highfather first appeared in a Jimmy Olson comic. Here is how it works basically darkside rules apocalypse and high father rules new geniuses, they both want to discover the life equation that will give control over everything. fearing war will break out between the two planets they arranged a child swap darkside gave one of his sons up for higherfather to raise and high father gave darkside one of his sons. Darkside hates his adopted kid because he is his the son of his greatest enemy probably sent to take darkside down from within, highfather treats his adopted son as his own. The new gods get involved with the justice league occasionally
I love hearing Kirby's response when questioned about his inspiration for creating Big Barda. "I like big women."
God bless Kirby.
Man of culture some could say.

This was 4 years ago, hows it all working out? Im genuinely interested to know 😊
Glad you're back dude, hope you're doing better.
Great video as always!
Good job except that you failed to mention Walter Simonson's ORION series which was every bit as amazing as his run on Thor.
Shit, I gotta read that.
This series of comics were my childhood. It's also the reason why i love Jack Kirby
SlyCooper88 If you can name ten of your favorite new gods who would it be?
Hey Faust! Have you heard of a 90's comic series called Faust?
"Splat their head on a piece of paper and their entire imagination poured out." That's quite the description!
i want to know who they are not who made them. tell me names powers that stuff im reading the injustice comic the new gods show up bad guys bow down and no 1 explains why......
Great to have you back. Good video
Welcome back I hope you're feeling better, love the new video!
Ahh.... Faust is back and he's talking about obscure yet awesome characters, all is right.
Also you hit the mark, comics are such an open medium writers can do anything, and we should take advantage of that.
New Gods is Kirbys most ambitious creation
Glad you're back! Great job on the new video, It's great!
New Gods rivals the star wars saga before star wars was released. New gods deserves to be turned into movies.

GLEIPNIR
Meanwhile at DC Comics
GIVE IT TO GRANT MORRISON
Glad your back with a new video buddy.Your Super Effective!!!
I'm a big New Gods fan!
Faust I hope you are well and doing better. As always; great video. When I watch your videos I always learn something new
yay, you're back and talking about stuff i don't really know all too well. glad you're doing well again :D
Glad you're back man, hope everything went well with with your situation. Keep up the great vids!
yay a video, i hope things are better now
Hey Faust, good luck winning top 10 comic book channels on youtube :)
You and ChannelBadGuy have to be my 2 favorites xD
You both have my support.
I just found your video while looking for more info on The New Gods story arc (for no good reason) and this just warms my heart so much. I started my comic collection not long after you posted the video and I must say, my two exceptions in buying comics are as follows, -if it's Kirby, buy it & if it's New Gods, buy it.
I try every day to get my (non-comic) friends to love Jack Kirby a little more for his immense gift and gifts to all of comic kind.
Keep loving New Genesis, Apokolips and their creator--The King--Jack Kirby
thanks for the history video faust keep up the great work and also i hope your felling a lot better.
Ok so who are the new gods?
I'm glad to see you making videos. I really hope you're doing better with what happened =)
Your videos are such a informative part of my DC experience. Thank you
Faust, who would you cast as some of the New Gods if the DCEU decides to be creative for a change and actually explore the lore of its characters?
Hi Faust good to see you back great video as always I would love to see a history of arrow video
Hey, you're back! I'm glad to see you're back to your normal Fausty self. :-)
Good vid Faust, glad you're okay!
Movie coming soon!!!!!
In your descriptions can you please give a breakdown of powers and abilities? Your segments are really insightful.
Another important thing you should have mentioned is that theres only 1 version of the new gods in the entire DC multiverse, no matter which universe there is in the DC multiverse the new gods will be exactly the same as they exist beyond the multiverse.
Highfather - Morgan Freeman / Avia - Gong Li / Orion - Liev Schreiber / Metron - Gary Oldman / Himon - Paul Giamatti / Madame Nature - Gwendoline Christie
Is infinity man and the forever people worth reading? To lead up to DCs convergence
Another very informative video. I suppose you already know about the upcoming Orion Omnibus?
hey your fresh , history videos on point.
Hi, do you have your videos scheduled for upload or do you record them the same day you upload? Thanks for the history videos! :)
So faust, I know you like the persona series so ny question to you is, have you seen the persona 5 trailer and what do you think about it?
It's good to see that you're alright Faust.
Glad your ok thanks for entertaining me
Thanks so much for this summary. I had heard of them every now and then. In the past, they had appeared in Superman and Seven Soldiers, but I really didn't know much about them. Wiih their appearence in New 52 Wonder Woman and especially Earth 2, I wanted to learn more about them.
I think the New Gods is the reason I'm still latching on the New 52.
Glad u seem to be doing better
This may be off base but is there any connection to The Eternals?
What did he have planned to do with new gods originally?
I love the new gods. I hope they do more with them
Will you do a video about the pre beyonder because he is ulipotent
Can you do a history video on the outsiders?
who is your favorite of the New Gods and why?
How does gods work in the comic world?
Can you do the Secret Six?
Hi there Faust!
I just have to know, are you planning on reviewing any IDW Transformers comics?
I don't like Transformers, so in a word, no. Sorry ^^;;
ItsSuperEffective Hmmm... Oh well :) I have just one more question to You.
Are You going to talk about new comics of Guardians of the Galaxy,
escpecialy those with Venom?
Maybe!! I have no plans to at the moment, but I do read them, so maybe!!
I love the new gods and anything can happen in a comic
I can't help but feel like The Eternals were integrated into their mainstream publication far better than the Fourth World/New gods ever were.
I have been reading comics for about two or three years now however I have not got a full series are there any new ones that you would suggest (prefer DC)
What exactly are you looking for in a series?
dc
Ivor Owen
Well Wonder Woman's New 52 series is amazing, I'd also recommend picking up anything written by Jeff Lemire, Geoff Johns, Scott Snyder, Charles Soule, and Cullen Bunn. I'd also say you should check out Batman/Superman starting with issue 16, Vibe had a really good 10 issue series, and the first 4 trades of the Flash are really good.
Thanks for recommenations :)
Ivor Owen No prob
Surprised you didn’t mention the Hunger Dogs.
what happend
Could you do a history of metal men please I think they are a really interesting title that people should know more about
Can you do Lucas bishop story ??
This movie better be good
My favorite NEW GODS are BIG BARDA,MELHELDRON, LIGHTRAY,HIGHFATHER
Yes endless sorry. Its just that could u give Dream his solo Who Is because he is very interesting
can you do a vid on batman
I am doin fine
Good video
Can you pls do an origin story about kang the conqueror / iron lad ?
How u doin
Still waiting to find out who are the new gods like the title suggests.
orion, high father, darkseid, kalibak, steppenwolf,metron,the forever people,big barda, light ray,mister miracle, hundreds of thousands of unnamed new gods.
I find that Faust only answers questions only he can answer when someone uses perfect grammar, if someone doesn't he doesn't reply.
andsincethisisjustatheory,punctuationaswell.
i don't think its that. i think its mainly that he doesn't have the time to answer everyone's questions and hopes someone else answers them (correctly)
JRock Malik yup what you said
Hello
love the new gods
I don't understand why could Kirby finish his original story after 11 issues?
Can u talk about the eternal Dream or other eternal character
Do you mean the endless? In which case I've already done quite a few videos about them, including a whole series about Death!!
Well i feel that each of the endless deserve their own spotlight video
I think Grant Morrison should do a run on the New Gods.
+Itssupereffective you are amazing
I hope you are doing okay! I super concerned!
Hop u doing ok thank u for the early post :)
Love the new gods i especially love the old one like darkseid's dad epic character.

Persona 5 new trailer just came out today!!!!!
Despite Darkseid insane power he isn't the gravest threat to DC universe there alot more beings who are 1 being his own father the first ever New God Yuga Khan.
Man! Tough critic! I mean really... it's just a comic book, or should I say "merely."
You look like a member of r5
Nice
