Thanks guys! Glad you dug it!
Thank YOU, man!
I love wonder woman as a character but I've never really been into her own series. But I really loved Dead Earth. Great story. And the weirdest to me is that the art is not typically a style I would be fan of, even with great skills that I respect, but it works perfectly with the tone of the book and I wouldn't imagine it different. Now I have to dig all your previous and future projects
Daniel Warren Johnson loved Murder Falcon and WW Dead Earth! Really love your work. Had no idea you had a TH-cam channel. Deffinetly subscribing!
Senpai noticed you!
Extremity and Murder Falcon were so awesome. I can't wait to read this!
John Stewart and Guy Gardner are flying through space back to Earth:
John: "I can't wait to go get some Big Belly Burger!"
Guy: "Same, it's been a minute. I wonder what the League's been up to?"
*sees the world freshly destroyed by Diana and Clark*
John: "....Yunno, I think I left my car keys back at Oa."
Guy: "Yeah, I'm gonna go with you. Not safe to travel alone through space and all that."
Athena is the Goddess of Strategy technically as she's the goddess of wisdom & war
I immediately thought Aries for a similar reason
@@cubencis he's the other war, aka brutality heat of passion and war crimes , there's even a fun speech from marvel all about the differences.
"The chain of command. Rules of engagement. This Geneva Convention thing. Medical evac. Supply lines. The white flag. The Red Cross. Worrying about evacuees and refugees. Taking prisoners. Losing the battle but winning the war. Cursed diplomats. The proper standard of grooming. Sensible things like having enough bullets before you go into battle. That's the dung my sister cares about. I'm the other God of War "
@John Daniels hey its the fun police. Very cool. Let me tell you something. 1. English isn't my first language, so chill. 2. Aries is an acceptance spelling. Same etymology 3. Either way it is not actually English. It's translated from Latin. See i can be pedantic too
this model of cursing to illustrate various degrees of awesomeness is refreshing and the allusion to Left4Dead[2] won me over... please, keep this format
Sal immediately and enthusiastically calling this book sick as hell makes me feel like I should go buy it before I watch this episode.
its what i did and thought it was worth the money.
Wonder Woman, she may be the DC'S TRINITY but she still underrated.
Damn shame, she's awesome.
Superman, Batman, Green Lantern characters partners all have spin off series.
meanwhile its usually just one Wonder Woman story at a time despite having groups.
Amari Student I think it’s cause not many people really know how to write Wonder Woman. That could be because she’s such a responsibility to not ruin or because whatever but I find when they do her right it’s always something like this
@@creed8712 Truth.
I completely agree. I didn't grow up with much wonder woman stuff but doesn't that say something when 1/3 of your trinity didn't get a movie for like 70 years and is easily miss construed. They also need to do a whatever happened story with her like with superman and batman. get someone really into wonder woman and is also a sorta big shot in the industry and have them do a fitting send off for the character.
I think it's neat how they represent the trinity with Wonder Woman wearing a Batman utility belt and wielding Supermace. They may not be there in person, but they're there in spirit!
It's sad that we never got a great superman black label book
They had to retroactively make All Star Superman into a Black Label just to fill space lol
So, Superman went out just like his dad. Heart attacks really are the largest cause of death in the world.
This came out 33 minutes ago and your comment is 2 days ago? Early access lol?
@@anthonylynch423 Explains why i'm allways seeinng this guy among the top comments, time travel.
_Bruh._
Diana's just punching him like "HEART ATTACKS REALLY ARE A KILLER HUH!"
Wonder women: Dead earth. Hmmm.... I'm not sure about this one though. I don't get the hype about this one. Yeah, Its a wonder woman story with a grim apocalyptic setting. Not so such different than from other post-apocalyptic stories with similar themes & beats.
There are things I like and there is things that I don't get about this story. I like the new spin that amazons got mutated and Diana dealing with the burden of that situation. But, then there's Diana being directly involve in destruction of cities and world being apocalyptic. I don't know why the writer thought it was necessary, but hey I'm okay with. Its an elseworlds tale.
But! One thing that really made me go WHAT!.... you got to be kidding me! Which was Superman spine being ripe by her.
Come On! You got to admit that was fucking Dumb.
Oh! Oh! I'm so sorry Clark I did this to you and I will make it up by ripping your spine out of your booooooodyy... ha ha🤣🤣🤣
That was dumb, but maybe some people might find it cool in a dumb yet outrageous sort of way.
Perhaps, I'm the odd man out in this, but I give the story 7/10.
I can’t believe I’ve been watching this channel for about a year and I’m just now learning sal and Tiffany are married. I’ve said to myself multiple times dang these good friends have such good chemistry 😂
😊💕
Basically Hippolyta became Echidna the mother of monsters in Greek myth, which is an amazing parallel between the two. Hippolyta is the matriarch of the Amazons, who in turn become the (hatra don’t no how it’s spelled) she has a serpent like grotesque form or what I thought it looked like anyway. Echidna is the mother of monsters, some of who fought great heroes. She is also half woman half snake living alone in a cave just how we are reintroduce to Hippolyta. I enjoyed this immensely and definitely pick it up. Fantastic video guys 👍🏾
27:02 The closest thing to a "god of strategy" is probably Athena, who tends to be Diana's Olympian patron anyway. (She also tends to be the patron of other mythological heroes, notably Odysseus).
36:00 Holy crap that's an awesome page.
Part of Athena's shtick in myth was that she was the patron of heroes. Odysseus, Heracles, Jason and the Argonauts, basically watching heroes do heroic shit and, like, giving them guidance and favors was her idea of a good time.
Books like dead earth are the kind of comic stories I really love and cherish. A distillation of the core character that emphasizes their strength of character and shows why we recognize them as our heroes.
Im so glad I decided to check this book out thanks to Tiffany's recommendation and im really happy to see it done on back issues. Great work as always guys. Can't wait to see what else you've got in store 🙌
It's always fun to see Ben and Ethan predicting some of the scenes way too early and Sal has to keep them from exploring that idea further, in order to save the surprise.
Back Issues drinking game. Take a shot anytime Sal says dope, baller, or any other outdated slang lol
Dope will never be outdated lol
Makes him being an ex-teacher so much more radical.
A mid 30's guys trying his hardest to be hip and relatable
This story made me want to get more epic wonderwoman tales. Like this story reminded me personally why Wonderwomans one of the big three. I want to get this comic and find other Wonderwoman stories too
I'd say the closest thing to this is Azarello's run
"Sick" is the right word... I mean, it was kind of an interesting reading... but so uncomfortable at times... Actually, it was probably continuosly uncomfortable from the begining to the end... And yet, I read it, the four books, so... don't know.
Wonder Woman in Mad Max. Sign me up.
Sal: So Wonder Woman does something epic
My brain: *Intense Wonder Woman theme*
had to stop this episode to go buy and read the story, soooo not dissapointed
A Wonder Woman Dead Earth game would be cool as shit
Didn't expect you guys to cover this so soon but glad you guys did. It's a modern classic in my opinion. I dug this series and bought the last issue a few weeks ago when it was released. Johnson is a beast and I'm glad he got to tell this story the way he wanted! Possibly my favorite from DC's black label line.
There's something I love about Daniel Warren Johnson's art style. I don't know what is, could be how rough it feels. I'm used to comicart emphasizing perfection but with his you can practically feel the texture
Reminds me of Chris Burnham or Frank Quietly art. Gritty, expressions everywhere and tons of action
The only bad thing about this is that I only got to issue two of this series and then quarantine happened, and then the US shut down the border with Mexico for tourists and now I can't finish the series because the store that I go to have not gotten newer comics from DC because of the new distribuitors they have ALSO I can't cross to the US sooooooo
This is my sad story of the day
EDIT. " I PROMISE YOU BEN WILL POP A BONER" I'M DEAAAAAAAAAD
BEST BACK ISSUES EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER
You can probably buy it online
hippolyta never breathed life into wonder woman, she moulded her from clay and the gods gave her life dude. come on. Moulton Marston it was Aphrodite, and later it was the Godesses who were patrons of the island.
Good Lord. That was by far my favorite Wonder Woman run. It's simply stunning.
I love this story because Wondy is the protagonist and antagonist
I was sold on this from the first issue. It also turned me on to Daniel Warren Johnson. My buddy showed me his copy of his sick-awesome Old Man Luke Skywalker. Murder Falcon is also Metal AF.
Murder falcon is amazing.
Agree with everything about murder falcon. It's a dope book. Johnson is a beast.
It's a shame that I wasn't even aware of this amazing book. The art and tone reminds me a lot of Vertigo's Sweet Tooth. This really is very metal, but in service to the story instead of just doing something grotesque or shocking for the sake of it.
Was not expecting this comic to be bad ass. Thank you for reviewing it. You guys have really turned up the entertaining banter too and make me proud to be part of the POPulation
This book is dope as hell!
Welp... I'm going to have to pick this up now.
I love how positive and geniune, sal is talking about wonder woman. Its so nice to see anywhere.
Holy F*cking Sh*t. This is one of The MOST Badass comics I have EVER heard of. 💀
I love Wonder Woman dead earth it was freaking nuts and told a really interesting elseworld story for Wonder Woman in a post apocalyptic setting, and holy shit that Wonder Woman vs Superman fight I didn’t see that one coming it was insane but that’s just my opinion.
This Back Issues was flat out, one of my favourites. I loved how passionate Sal was about the book and Black Label. This is what I needed.
Yeah, this book was pretty fucking metal. The art is grotesque and expressive, the story is simple but neat, and the more I read it the more tragic and bizarre it got. I liked it a lot. Really felt like I was reading an indie dark fantasy comic, which tend to be really cool.
The best part about school being back in is that the week goes by faster so it feels like less of a wait for back issues!
I can really relate to that hypothetical metal exchange. \m/
It's sad that black label is ending. But after DC announced that trades and graphic novels perform miles better than singles, I'll bet they'll start releasing these styles of stories as just graphics from the get go. Maybe revive Vertigo as the more 'mature' imprint. Since we know the Ink/Zoom one is sticking around
It's not ending, just getting reorganize after the DC layoffs and fireings.
I hope Wonder Woman Dead Earth becomes a movie, either live-action or animated.
that fortress of solitude door cover is amazing
"We have to stop.. no this is deep"
Perfect reaction
This book is near perfect in my opinion
I'm really glad you all decided to cover it
"This is not just clay!!"
OH MY GOODNESS!!! This story is CRAZY. I am swarmed with emotions. I want to read this book for myself but at the same time, I don’t think I can handle some of these heartbreaking reveals. All I can say is this is INCREDIBLE!!!
F*ck yes! It's so good to see this book get some love.
Follow up to this, what I would give to have Tiff cover Murder Falcon. I don't think Ben would survive that one.
I stopped this video half way through and read my housemate's copy of Dead Earth. Holy shit this was awesome.
The best part of waking up is new Back Issues!
I remember you saying you wanted to do this on the podcast so I’m happy you got to follow through
Yes Diana getting some love action wise
Oh my God, that story was amazing. I can’t believe I skipped that!
Just wow. Finally watched his video (making my way through the entire Back Issues and commenting on all I have no yet and I am going to see if I can find this (already got Do A Powerbomb) and the Beta Ray Bill story.
I like the setup and presentation, I wasnt too sure at first. Good group chemistry. Killer story to cover. 💪
Loved this book. Just wish the ending was a bit stronger. I understood it was about having hope. Still a 9.5/10 for me. Loved the Black Label treatment for the issues.
This is what dark knights metal and heavy metal needed to be
Holy crap this book is amazing
This one story is more metal than anything deathmetal!! Like no comparison 💯💯
This is one of the reasons I enjoy ComicPOP so much. Not interested in reading the story and I'm not a fan of the art but damn if I don't love the trio's enthusiasm while going through it lol. Also really enjoy when Sal does a book that he thoroughly enjoys. Y'all are awesome.
Here's the problem when Sal hypes the heck out of a comic, I want to stop the video and go read it for myself. Lol. I'll come back to watch, I promise.
2 episodes back to back that will go down as classics.
Holy Crap! Good episode gents. You weren't kidding about this being the most metal Wonder Woman ever. It's like if every Iron Maiden, Sepultura, and Megadeth album cover had a baby. Wow. That's how you do gritty. You dont just make it dark. You make it dark AND you make it AWESOME.
Great pull, you know I've been listening to Comicpop for so long I forgot Sal was from jersey and then he said hydra
If ever ComicPOP was to be quoted on a trade I hope it's the (albeit abrupt) final line from this episode.
Wow, i was on the fence about this one.... but you definitely SOLD me on this book! Thanks as always for the hilarious and insightful stories.
Will we ever see Gunthar tidbits again?
You guys are coming in clutch for Hurricane Sally.
Hype Sal is awesome to see.
Between this story, Harleen, and white knight , made me want more from black label
This is what the Tales from the Dark Multiverse comics should have been
I absolutely love this series! #3 was my favorite but the whole thing is amazing!!!
I want a Superman spine mace (it doesn’t have to be a real super spine it can be plastic or whatever)
I liked this comic book a lot. One thing I wish they'd done however, was put more emphasis on Wonder Woman's, and the Amazons' guilt over the fact that the apocalypse was their fault rather than humanity's. Diana's mother kept saying how humanity didn't deserve them, but in a twist of irony, it was actually the Amazons who actually caused the war that ultimately ended the world. Humanity only launched the nukes at Themyscira in an act of desperation because they were on the verge of losing the war against the Amazons, who were refusing to make peace. This in turned caused Wonder Woman to go berserk, and kill Superman, destroying the world in the process. Consumed by guilt, Wonder Woman would be forced to admit that the Amazons weren't any different than humanity, and that she herself wasn't the perfect champion that she'd always thought she was. Wonder Woman's problem wouldn't be the question of whether humanity deserved her, but whether SHE deserved THEM.
man they should make this comic in to an anime it would by hardcore lol
Tom Taylor's Nightwing run! Fuckin' love you guys!
This was an awesome series, glad you covered it. I wish they gave Diana more stories like this.
This series... Is so damn good.. One of the best of 2020 in my opinion.
holy shit! this video turned me into lil jon, just shouting “WHAT?!?!!” & “YEAHHH!!!!”
Batman stole Wonder Woman's mojo.
lol
Comicpop i have watch every video on your channel and i got to say this, i will subscribe this has become one of my fav channel on youtube.
Thanks Sam!
I always look forward to waking up and seeing another Back Issues
This needs an absolute Edition Right now
Woah. All I gotta say is woah.
Note to superman:- find and destroy all kryptonite except for batmans ring
Never have read a wonder woman story might check this out
It's pretty awesome
Another autopsy of what could have been with Black Label. There is always such a disconnect between what comics are and what they are perceived as being by the uninformed, and it always ends with censoring creativity.
Truly a metal comic 🤘🏻
That was rad! Amazing episode!!
Damn kinda regret I watched this before I read it. But Bens' reactions make it worth it. Will definitely buy this book now.
This story gave me so many goosebumps.
Back Issues has been absolute 🔥 lately!!
Knowing James Gunn, I can see him greenlighting a movie based on this at some point. If not in the new dcu, I hope it at least gets an elseworlds movie😭
YESSS! Amazing that you guys posted this when I'm craving for a Wonder Woman story. It would have been better if Tiffany was there (where's she?) but still great job guys. 👌
I couldn't be there the day the shot this! I wish I could have shared the book with then guys, but I'm glad that it's out there!!
@@TheRealZubes **insert is this the real life or is this fantasy gif** Tiffany is that really you? I'm lowkey having a fangirl moment. 😆 Hopefully Back Issues can do a Harley Quinn story soon. I've just finished the Harley Quinn animated series and I'm stoked that they'll be continuing the series! Hopefully you'll be there for this one. Thanks and stay safe!
I NEED to get this now! This sounds awesome
Just went to my local shop to get the hardcover of this and wow
Loved this book!
So many awesome moments in this video to speak on but ill say this....HEY BEN ..."halloween aint till manana."
This was a great episode, will definitely be picking up the hard cover when it comes out.
Awsome review, guys. Just bought it via the amazon link!
Whoa wonder woman story dang it's been a while
This right here is what I wish we got more of out of Black Label, fresh creative teams making stories about characters they have passion for that aren't restrained by continuity. But instead what we got for the most part was Batman, Batman, Batman, Batman that may or may not be in continuity anymore who knows, and stories still being gutted by editorial mandates and uninformed dumbasses. Remember that big controversy when Batman Damned came out, nudity in a comic meant for adults only? In retrospect I feel like that was the beginning of the end for Black Label, shame because I remember being so excited about this imprint being announced.
This story is awesome I’m definitely buying it
Another great episode. You should cover Annihilation and the start of the revitalisation of cosmic Marvel!
