24:50 The Psycho-Pirate is a truly underrated villain. Despite his ridiculous disguise, bro can manipulate the emotions of those around him, making him extremely dangerous. In fact, the guy could literaly make Batgirl and Supergirl bang each other instead of trying to stop him. No wonder the Anti-Monitor used him as a primary weapon during the first Crisis.
I still watch comicstorian, but I still mess hearing Benny's voice making new content. Sorry, it was just nice to hear you mention Benny for a moment in the opening.
I will never understand how flash (Barry Allen flash) can be captured except by other speedsters or traps specifically designed to catch speedsters. The guy can think so fast that it might as well be precognition. He can think at the speed of an atto-second. For those who don’t know, that is the smallest possible amount of time that we’re currently aware of. It mean’s literally everything is like it’s standing still for him, and for all intents and purposes. It is, this is also the guy that somehow beat instantaneous teleportation by running. How can he be captured? 😂 Before the comments be a smartass and be like: “Just catch him off guard!” How do you catch someone who can think so fast, in such a short amount of time. That most people’s jaw drop at just how many zeros are tacked on after the .0? 🤔 Think about it: Barry: “Kay there’s a door *proceeds to phase through* oh there’s captain boomerang prepared to throw a boomerang at me. Oh captain cold is here?! Dang when did they team up again, I thought boomerang was in bell reve. Alright, let’s give them both a wedgie and a noogie. Then put them back in their cells before they even know what happened. (: “
i might be getting my flashes mixed up (i most certainly am actually) but i remember reading a comic where flash's "think super fast" move was shelved because it almost got him killed...somehow, like he could think super fast but not fast enough to figure out how to not die to a bullet coming towards him, or something
Again he moves at an attosecond ,I think Barry's enemies only get him trapped because of plot armor because realistically there is no way normal guys like boomerang and cold are supposed to catch this man .like None lol
You answered your own question and you still dont understand it? Traps specifically designed to catch a speeder is how you catch the flash, other than that, i agree with you.
Speaking of Doctor Manhattan, I absolutely recommend his "Before Watchmen" miniseries written by Michael J. Straczynsky. The author not only fully respected the character created by Alan Moore, but also explored his obsession with unraveling the mystery of time and the nature of what is hidden inside each thing. Trust me, it's really good, to the point of being almost on the same level as Moore's masterpiece
I might be alone in saying this but I hate Doctor Manhattan and I don't think he's a well-written character. There's too many excuses to make up for his ignorance, extreme arrogance, and stupidity in spite of the fact that he's basically God. It goes back to him being an ill-conceived character that's too powerful to have in a story, anyway. Just my opinion.
@junevaona9349 you can't write a character without flaws, that's why a lot of god-like characters just don't work. But on the other face of the coin, you could say "why didn't they do this during this event" or "where were they during x fight?" So on and so forth. It's plot at the end of the day and the characters are only as powerful as the writers make them
To be honest, I really LOVED "Before Watchmen". Said project did not deserved at all the hatred of the fans, especially if we take into account the marvelous creative team behind it, with great authors such as Darwyn Cooke, Len Wein or J. Michael Straczynsky in charge of writing the stories and prestigious artists such as Lee Bermejo, Amanda Conner and Jae Lee behind the art. Although the Comedian and Rorschach miniseries aren't pretty memorable, their art is sublime. Silk Spectre, Nite Owl and Ozymandias' miniseries explore the psychology of the characters pretty well and even make them more round. The Dollar Bill and Moloch specials are actually quite emotional and depressing to read. Finally, both "Minutemen" and "Doctor Manhattan" are masterpieces that have little to envy Alan Moore's graphic novel.
Im surprise barry couldn't phase through the ground to get out of the net. Dang Rob, your really going to rehash the button, breh...well i guess i gotta find another channel to watch in the mean time.
I love the death battle with Goku Black and Reverse Flash, Zamasu tries to boast like a god and Flash literally says “Empty words to a living Paradox” it perfectly sums up Eobard always a smart ass always gotta remark always talking shit
From the UK, I was thinking I don't remember a 'button' in Watchmen! Looked at the screen and saw the iconic image and remembered they say button in the US. We say badge in the UK. Just sharing. 😊
If you go back in time and do something you don’t affect the future you create one. The time line you originally came from goes on as it did, you just create an alternative
In my opinion there's no more evil a character without powers than Amanda Waller. Nobody should aspire to be a control freak like her imposing their will on others, she's worse than those she manages, living proof of the fallibility of the system in comics that she's not locked away from society.
So early in the video you mentioned the scar theory and how changing the past changes the future. So how then does the letter from Thomas Wayne survive Barry changing the timeline and eliminating that whole future? I hate time travel.
Yo I have been subbed for a LONG time, but I hadn't been recommended your videos or been showed your vids in my sub box for ages until now. Just wanted to let you know this is a thing apparently.
I Hate the whole “you lied to me because you didn’t tell me your a super hero” thing. It makes no sense why would a person like the flash tell someone he’s with that he’s the flash right off the bat. This also happens in invincible. mark doesn’t tell the girl he Just started dating about his identity, and when he finally does, she calls him a liar. Like why would a superhero immediately tell the person their with their identity, what if the relationship doesn’t work out or the break up is ugly now you got someone out there who could leak your identity to the world or be put in danger just for knowing.
While it's true, before TH-cam i would have to deal with the work day. I'm just not sure how I'd be able to go back to not listening to these all day. Not sure if you enriched my days or ruined them. Lol😅😅😅
FYI i wrote that last comment vefire even watching this video, having see the movie and Comicstorian telling the story about samething happening months ago after it originally released in dc comics.
"Remember that time you met God? It was ME Barry!"
🤣🤣🤣
My youngest son quotes that video to me at least once a month and I never get tired of it
@@jacobrutter5578you mean your COOLEST son. GOATED
i was jacking you off at superspeed every time you spoke to a woman to make you think there was something wrong with you… it was ME barry

Yeah that hit me too

NGL I would read a story where he manipulates Superman or The Spectre into killing the DC Universe. He could do it too.
He’s been a catalyst in a lot of big events so idk if he is underrated 😅 doesn’t get a lot of screen time but when he does you know stuff pops off!
But he's a muggle at the end of it. A contract killer could off him. That's why he's not respected in a world of super humans.
@@AjaxOutlawI mean,he deserves much more attention outside of comics
@@comics_explained hey rob dude, since you started DC have you found a favourite book/storyarc?
8:37 this panel of Amanda waller will live in my nightmares 😂😂
Love this story. Glad to see you bring it back.
This Bruce and Thomas encounter is fucking emotional 😢
Clicked faster than the Flash himself
Oh did you check your watch
Good one 👍
Impossible!
Impossible bro 😂
👀
flash stories are soo good and deep.
"if God was writing DC rebirth" that's never gonna get old. With DC rebirth, we started getting Rob hyped AF.

The Flash that moved that fast wasn't Barry Allen. It was Wally West (not the Wally West in this comic, Wally in a different universe.)

Oh yeah, another Flash video. Thanks rob
Robs button video made me start reading DC
Back when he switched from Marvel Explained to Comics Explained
I love listening to this stuff while I’m at work
"God kills the Flash? Why would he wanna do that?'"
*Sees its an hour long video
"Oh so it's just like the top 5 things"
Every time Rob says, "Let me tell you something...man..." I NEED to alt tab! I have to see what hes talking about! LOL
YO THESE VIDS MAKE MY WEEK!

@fishin4bass2002😊
Forrest Gump was The Flash but wasn’t as fast as his predecessors and successors 🧐
Rob I truly love this channel
A scar wouldn't suddenly appear on you from a "changed" event bcz to You the event already happened.
It’s the music for me.. and right after watching the why files lol it’s giving spooky 👻 to me
That thumbnail give you goosebumps fr if you heard Comistorian say it when he review this comic 😂

Like all Marvel stories they never know how to finish, such a great build-up.
Hey Rob do you think you could go over The Flash Age and Finish Line?

Man, Rob begs on so many questions.
The way this guy just devolves into maddened grunting when he gets hype is hilarious
I think about a half hr of this video is grunting and saying "let me tell you something"
Doing a road trip currently and this is essential
The flash in the thumbnail is straight up homeless emperor from OPM when he saw god
never been this early for a new video before sweet!
love these longer videos. Can you do Gorr the god butcher story?
god he loves saying “Eobard Thawne” 😂😂
Coming back after hearing about benny is sad.

Thomas Wayne and The Punisher would be dope
love ur stuff

Well remember at the beginning of the button the flashpoint universe is still there. It doesn't even dissolve until after the comic starts
8:33 didn't know her neck was that long lol
Thawne vs Dr doom would have awesome monologs lol
I love the fact that it was Doctor manhattan from the wachman universe who interfered with the dc, which in his home world is a comic book interesting
Hey Rob, can you explain:

You about copies. We get it.
The Joker, Lex Luthor and now Eobard Thawne! All definitive arch villains!
Wow this is awesome! That last comic's cliffhanger left me wanting more. Does Rob cover what happens after that last comic in this video?
Eobard Thawne: the worst example of parasocial interactions
I swear everytime psychopirate shows up hes incredibly important to the multiverse

After seeing "God", the reverse flash looked like that one scene in deep rising... Ya'll know the one.
Ideally this will end up being the story line to bring back rorschach
Not to break the 4th wall, I think we can only meet the potentiality of God. Never God itself.
