Easiest way to acquire Blue Lantern Ring: 1. meet a blue lantern 2. say to them: "give me a blue lantern ring, have hope in me that i'll make a great blue lantern" 3. If the blue lantern does not give you a ring, means they have no hope in you, so they lose their ring. So essentially you forced them into making/giving you a ring. 4. feel hopeful due to potential of new powers. 5. ??? 6. Profit.
@Benjamin Parker a high level of humor is a kind of humor that people don't get right off the bat and I assume that you have a low level of understanding the humor within the context
When I was a kid, I watched the Justice League DCAU cartoon, and Flash was my favourite. I also thought Green Lantern was pretty cool, and imagined how cool it would be if Flash had a Green Lantern ring. However, blue was my favourite colour, so I imagined the ring as blue instead of green, though otherwise functionally the same. Imagine my surprise, when years later, I learn that there actually is a Blue Lantern Corps, and the Flash (Barry, not Wally, but still) was a member.
Lockjaw and you're unimaginative if you think that Darkseid wouldn't crush the ring because it technically wouldn't be his own power that brought the Universe(s) heroes to their knees. It would not stoke his ego and Darkseid is not a humble guy.
Ok I've been thinking/wondering this since I first heard of the blue lanterns.... Why has superman never been inducted to the blue core... Isn't he like hope personified?
hibacilacle that's because Status Quo Is God, they weren't going to give Scarecrow a Yellow Power Ring power-up because it would make him too powerful to use him against Batman, they had to keep him down at Batman power levels since that's what he's meant for. They weren't going to let him grow beyond that.
I thought it was because even though he _could_ instil great fear, he himself wasn't worthy of being in _Sinestro's Corp_ by Sinestro's standards, so he took the ring and fucked off with it
They probably hated it at first, but then grew attached to him. Most Wally fans didn't grow up with Barry as their Flash. Dick Grayson doesn't want to be Batman. Diana is immortal. I don't know about Supergirl, though it sounds like a neat concept.
Dude you’re seriously superior at this. Your videos are super thorough! I don’t have many friends into comics, the Rob Corps is the next best thing! And you would be a killer voice over guy!
in flashpoints Barry awoke in a new world..... he finds himself in posecion of the zoom uniform.... Barry thinks it's zoom messing with his mind but what if Barry actually is zoom in the flashpoints reality....?...
+christopher crafte what I mean is maybe on FLASHPOINTS world Barry was evil....I mean if Barry traveled to an alternative world shouldn't there have been an alternative Barry?.....
he didnt go to an alternate universe he went to an alternate timeline. the difference is that an alternate timeline changes the universe and an alternate universe is a different universe. and an alternate timeline would not have an alternate barry because barry is right there and things have changed for him.
basically Barry is Barry but because he time traveled he didnt instantly remember his line in the changed timeline but he did start to remember his life.
How about a video on the few characters that actually aged over the years? Wally and Dick are characters who went from teens to 20's to replacing the mentor.
I never really realized how complicated the Flash was until I started watching the series. I thought he was just a dude that ran fast. So unfortunately, I can't go back to read all the old stuff. But, your breakdown was great! I did subscribe to your page.
This reminds me of BECAUSE SCIENCE where they said that the fast the flash goes towards lightspeed with his "infinite mass" punch, the more he turns blue in color.
Thanks for this. Do you think you could do a video on the alien races in Marvel (knee, skrulls, shiar, etc.)? Especially something on Gladiator or at least includes him. peace
Wrong. It wasn't exactly a retcon. In the Flash Rebirth, Eobard Thawne actually tells Barry that he (Barry) lived in a world with his parents growing old and that he (Eobard) changed that. As well as doing a bunch of other stuff to him over his life like pushing him down a flight of stairs when he was a kid (this was shown in the video, I just didn't see it yet). Barry didn't know because obviously Thawne was much faster than him back then. So, Barry's mother dying isn't so much of a retcon as it is a timeline change. Eobard Thawne in that comic book is the version that fought the Barry Allen that had perfectly alive parents.
Yo rob. I'm just here to tell you that you sound like Neil degrasse tyson again. The flash is my favorite hero so I love theses videos. Keep up the great work
Gunmasterx7 Superman is by himself stronger than Batman or Green Lantern. So him with a blue ring, which would give him a shield, would be stronger. And when fighting GL Batman, the blue ring can do everything a GL ring can do, Batman got a power up, but also powers up Superman.
Tahj Hightower I know bro, I just saw it on The New Sage last night and he did a GREAT JOB with him,but I wanted to see Rob's spin on it. It would be great! 👍👍👍
I frst got into these comic book channels cuz of Comicstorian but once I got wind of Comics Explained, I couldn't do any other. Fanboy-ish I know, but Rob does a great job in not only telling the story, but explaining the details you miss whether you've read it or not.
As the OP said New Sage has a vid:th-cam.com/video/p2PFTb3aw_YI/w-d-xo.htmlf you guys have not seen his ids they are all(that I know at least) bio& stats for weird, rarely seen, or just plain stupid characters from Marvel, DC Image, and between my nasty toes.
Please explain Guy Gardner. How did a jerk like him get a green lantern ring and then get a yellow lantern ring and then become some alien/human hybrid powered being and then a green lantern again. Hate him but I love to hate him!
Rob I’ve been following for 4 years now. Since you were marvel explained and had dc explained as separate channels. I’m rob corps ten toes down bro!! I need a ring, I’ve watched every video on every channel! Please hook a fan up. I’ll be alpha rob corps, I do nothing but eat sleep comics explained!!

@Benjamin Parker a joke is something you haven't heard of in these parts I assume
@Benjamin Parker a high level of humor is a kind of humor that people don't get right off the bat and I assume that you have a low level of understanding the humor within the context
@Benjamin Parker Also not all jokes aren't made to make sense or apply to something that exists
@Benjamin Parker don't try to bite off more then you can chew
smart Raven

dream came true
Cool
Green lantern was always my favorite anyone of them especially the black guy i liked his military constructs
He became a blue blur…
This is just begging for a Sonic reference
I'd see him, and be like, "What in blue blazes?"
Umm not really but ok....
Comparing the flash to sonic ? Wtf lol
@@sIudgefactory Both fast, blue
@@coulsonintahiti so he's like The Human Sonic!
So when he rushes into a place I guess you could say he, came out of the blue?
Also Im calling him Blue Barry.
Lol
I'm bluuue ba da bee ba da bye
Trinitrotoluene Monomania I’m blue if I was green I would die
This is double down on Dad puns.
feathero3 lol
Who else pictured Nekron talking like Skeletor?
Me
Wat?
Hmmm, Darkseid with a Black Lantern Ring.......unbeatable?
Greenscyth22 that would be hard to kill (again)
Greenscyth22 homosex is good
He'd probably smash the ring and tell that power to fuck itself, HE'S the one that would bring death to the universe.
Give Batman some prep time and we’re good lol
Lockjaw and you're unimaginative if you think that Darkseid wouldn't crush the ring because it technically wouldn't be his own power that brought the Universe(s) heroes to their knees. It would not stoke his ego and Darkseid is not a humble guy.
Rob is the one above all of explaining comics. Keep up the great work bro.
Ok I've been thinking/wondering this since I first heard of the blue lanterns.... Why has superman never been inducted to the blue core... Isn't he like hope personified?
He is humanity's hope but man himself is not full of hope
@@Decrazy123 there are also versions of him where he ditched humanity or lois died and he lost all hope so he turned for the worst
Yellow Lantern Scarecrow was the best...
I'm surprised Scarecrow wasn't able to keep it, he is the perfect candidate for a Yellow Lantern Ring.
hibacilacle that's because Status Quo Is God, they weren't going to give Scarecrow a Yellow Power Ring power-up because it would make him too powerful to use him against Batman, they had to keep him down at Batman power levels since that's what he's meant for. They weren't going to let him grow beyond that.
I thought it was because even though he _could_ instil great fear, he himself wasn't worthy of being in _Sinestro's Corp_ by Sinestro's standards, so he took the ring and fucked off with it
Shadizer Silverhand Same argument for Batman and green lantern corp
Lol youd think batman would be offered a yellow ring since he scares the shit out of the bad guys
Serious question why do most people hate the concept of Donna Troy, dick Grayson, and Kara taking up their mentors role, but love Wally as flash?
Deon Hargrove nah I hate Wally
You're alone
Thats because a fair number of the modern fans started with Wally as Flash. No one started with the others. Its hypocrisy.
dick grayson is suppose to be different not batman but night wing
They probably hated it at first, but then grew attached to him. Most Wally fans didn't grow up with Barry as their Flash. Dick Grayson doesn't want to be Batman. Diana is immortal. I don't know about Supergirl, though it sounds like a neat concept.
Nekron is not part of the Emotional spectrum, it is the absence of emotion.
So he's a TH-cam commenter?
Dude you’re seriously superior at this. Your videos are super thorough! I don’t have many friends into comics, the Rob Corps is the next best thing! And you would be a killer voice over guy!
It was a good fit who got the rings they did in blackest night and even expanded Heroclix. A great story.
maaaaan I miss and love the old 90's buff square jaw Flash and his mask.
This made me want to get more into the flash mythos! Great video!
Today is the best day. Both u and Benny uploaded. I’m so thankful 😭
I love this channel. So informative
GREAT series- love being refreshed on it, thanx!
Someone make a “basically” counter. I recall like at least 10
Solovar died in Crisis, he was saving Kamandi's life and was wounded in the process.
in flashpoints Barry awoke in a new world..... he finds himself in posecion of the zoom uniform.... Barry thinks it's zoom messing with his mind but what if Barry actually is zoom in the flashpoints reality....?...
what do you possibly mean by that?
+christopher crafte what I mean is maybe on FLASHPOINTS world Barry was evil....I mean if Barry traveled to an alternative world shouldn't there have been an alternative Barry?.....
he didnt go to an alternate universe he went to an alternate timeline. the difference is that an alternate timeline changes the universe and an alternate universe is a different universe. and an alternate timeline would not have an alternate barry because barry is right there and things have changed for him.
+christopher crafte so Barry's mind and memory's arrived in flashpoints but not his body?....
basically Barry is Barry but because he time traveled he didnt instantly remember his line in the changed timeline but he did start to remember his life.
It all just happened so "fast".
Loved this! Thank you for the ENTIRE rundown! Thank you for your time and research
wow amazing video explained so much this was so cool
Now the flash is even more faster
That one blue lantern guy looked like Earth worm Jim. lol
I wonder if Barry could make a speedforce purely out of hope
Love the videos Mate! You should do a video with a throwback Intro. Miss those.
7:58 "when he ded" Noice!
Thank for putting that into perspective I was confused about that
He can fly faster than Superman, with the ring.
Its already 3 years. I hope you already stop smoking crack
How about a video on the few characters that actually aged over the years? Wally and Dick are characters who went from teens to 20's to replacing the mentor.
I just love story time with Rob
Bl-blue f-fl-flash? YES!!!! best combo ever... the blue lanterns are my favorite lantern corps and the flash is my favorite DC hero...
So exactly how many "other halves" are there. I wasn't keeping count.
...Wha?
Im sorry i lost you like 3.57 minutes in...
Wha? I'm confused...
@Tronald Dump same
Rob, please do the Phantom Stranger Blackest Knight tie-in! It's amazing!
Awesome explanation! Thank you.
Thanks bro that was amazing
guess u could say Captain Cold, is A Cold hearted dude :P
Captain America as a Blue Lantern would be great.
Great story explaining rob!!
Wow what an amazing video it really helped me understand alot more
"The problem with this is..."
"The problem with this is..."
I never really realized how complicated the Flash was until I started watching the series. I thought he was just a dude that ran fast. So unfortunately, I can't go back to read all the old stuff. But, your breakdown was great! I did subscribe to your page.
Why did I just get a Sprite Cranberry ad?
4:02 and then get a series on the cw (which i watch) LOL thanks rob
Did I miss the part where we talk about what abilities he gets or how things change once he gets the ring? Besides the flight
You could just use goggle
Bro you are so fucking rad for doing this
This reminds me of BECAUSE SCIENCE where they said that the fast the flash goes towards lightspeed with his "infinite mass" punch, the more he turns blue in color.
Blue lightning
It's finally Sunday morning again AND...Blue Lantern Flash! #RobCorps
Blackest night was great,
When will you do a video of the 7 endless and their powers
Reverse Flash:
*Slowest Person Alive*
*Man:Explains Story*
*Me: What Bro?*
Blue Lantern Flash Needs to be the modern cannon
Thanks for this. Do you think you could do a video on the alien races in Marvel (knee, skrulls, shiar, etc.)? Especially something on Gladiator or at least includes him. peace
another amazing vid. thanks for all the hard work you put into these
There should be a video on Loki!
Amazing video!! Can't believe that you were able to explain all this!
he says basically, basically every sentence
Blue Lantern Flash’s head looks like Captain America~
He said “the other half of this” like 15 times
Wrong. It wasn't exactly a retcon. In the Flash Rebirth, Eobard Thawne actually tells Barry that he (Barry) lived in a world with his parents growing old and that he (Eobard) changed that. As well as doing a bunch of other stuff to him over his life like pushing him down a flight of stairs when he was a kid (this was shown in the video, I just didn't see it yet).

Yo rob. I'm just here to tell you that you sound like Neil degrasse tyson again. The flash is my favorite hero so I love theses videos. Keep up the great work
Barry Allen is my fav
I wonder what is stronger, Superman with a Blue Latern Ring or Batman with a Green Latern Ring
Gunmasterx7 Superman is by himself stronger than Batman or Green Lantern. So him with a blue ring, which would give him a shield, would be stronger. And when fighting GL Batman, the blue ring can do everything a GL ring can do, Batman got a power up, but also powers up Superman.
It would love to see that fight play out
He would just end up making batman stronger because green lanterns that are near blue lanterns get a power boost lol
Superman
Gunmasterx7 bats with a green lantern ring! He was ridiculous!
Imagine if blackest night happened in the (post injustice 2) injustice universe
Peace Rob, can you please do a video on Yuga Khan.......Father of Darksied? Thanks bro 👊
New sage did a vid on him this week bro
Yea that would be cool
Tahj Hightower I know bro, I just saw it on The New Sage last night and he did a GREAT JOB with him,but I wanted to see Rob's spin on it. It would be great! 👍👍👍

As the OP said New Sage has a vid:th-cam.com/video/p2PFTb3aw_YI/w-d-xo.htmlf you guys have not seen his ids they are all(that I know at least) bio& stats for weird, rarely seen, or just plain stupid characters from Marvel, DC Image, and between my nasty toes.
I really wish I was any lantern. Constructs are so awesome
Plastic Man for Omega /Beyond Omega. We need plas up here.
ItsTaft knowing barely anything about Plastic Man... is he really omega level? If so, how?
Love your vids, btw solovar died on crisis on infinite earths
Best comic book youtuber
He means ginger wally west ...the black wally has another origin story...in dc
Its confusing
So that "Flash Fact" thing a running gag that I don't understand? Because it was in Flash Rebirth. It might have even been Bart who said it.
Please explain Guy Gardner. How did a jerk like him get a green lantern ring and then get a yellow lantern ring and then become some alien/human hybrid powered being and then a green lantern again. Hate him but I love to hate him!
HindsightPOV he also became a red lantern
He is a layer cake of retcons
Tahj Hightower Guy Gardner is a badass yo don't be hating
HindsightPOV it was this little thing called 1990s
N94able
?
I'm pretty sure tussles don't end in death.
10:16
Wish they showed how he actually got the ring and not just skip to him wearing it...
3:47 IT WAS ME BARRY
Next Hulk becoming pink lantern...
Rob I’ve been following for 4 years now. Since you were marvel explained and had dc explained as separate channels. I’m rob corps ten toes down bro!! I need a ring, I’ve watched every video on every channel! Please hook a fan up. I’ll be alpha rob corps, I do nothing but eat sleep comics explained!!
I hope he sees this, L
So when is the Rob Corp going to have their own explain video?
Dc is the only publisher that makes me wonder what the plural for the word crisis is.
I want a Beige lantern core. They are power by apathetic indifference.
fantastic content!
The flash with blue ring he should fly faster then superman run to different universes
thank you again for another great video.
NICE. I never did read the "blackest night" storyline. It looks like I should get on that.
I've given up on silver surfer requests so I'll fall back on football in the groin
You just earned a subscriber!
Nice piece, can you do something on Rom Spaceknight?
10:33 flash can already fly
Love this series hey rob can you do a video on orange lantern lex Luther
all i can see is bonk atomic punch blue and red
"Living embodiment of death" ???
I want a green lantern Batman that’s fucking kick ass or a blue lantern Superman
So which lantern corps would the flash family be in
Punisher: Max. Are you still doing it?
Do a video on the Odin Force. It's really confusing
Love the idea of Blue Lantern Flash
