Imo the best thing about new 52 was the redamption of darkseid. Post crisis darkseid ( in the start of the 2000's) became a joke and less than a superman villain. Originaly he one shoted superman with a slap to another planet. And new 52 darkseid is finaly a team buster again. And he has a badass designe.
While I'm gled they buffed him I still can't help but compare his to Thanos. With Dark side being raised by his daughter a again I hope Darksekd consistently is too much for the main JL
Kevin from The Office That's what I was thinking Dark side was extremely inconsistent and even the Avatar excuse doesn't really hold up in some scenes scenario
Your channel is amazing, you make it a lot easier to understand the whole comic continuity and lore without having to read every issue, keep up the good work!
Yo rob since you mentioned convergence I challenge you to make a vid on the worst story you’ve ever read...your voice can turn turds into gold so we will still enjoy it
"Batman annnnd the Superrrrr Seveeeennnn!!!" The intro to an old Saturday morning cartoon show. Any elders out there remember that? In...1978-ish? ...some OG Batman...
"When Hal Jordan the Green Lantern steps up he gets some too, when it comes to Wonder Woman stepping up she gets some too. Everybody get's a piece of this pie even if they want it or not."
I love GL and Batman relationship it's so cool and funny 😂😂😂. Both of them don't like each other and annoy each other. Green lantern: Like I was saying Green lantern can do anything. Batman: Expect shut up apparently. Green lantern: Wow someone forgot to take their true blood tonight. Batman: I'm not a vampire. Lol 😂
Eduardo Ruiz Do yourself a favor, don't even think about watching the direct-to-DVD animated film adaptation of this graphic novel, "Justice League War". Because it's just terrible, and makes the members of the league look like fucking idiots in that movie. That and stabbing Darkseid in the eyes to finish him off?! That's just stupid. And I mean really, really, really stupid.
I remember reading this for the first time, so when i read the ice cream scene i love it and was hoping they would work it into a film. Then I saw Justice League War and they had that scene and i was like "Maybe this scene doesn't work outside of the comics." But then I saw Wonder Woman and they had that scene and I just got the biggest smile one my face. It felt genuine and gave a sweet moment in the film before Diana sees the horrors of Man's War.
I thought Diana and Clark relationship worked extremely well. They were both loners, outcasts. They connected in a way that they couldn’t do with other people. It wasn’t just about their powers, but their personalities. I’ll always love Clark and Lois but I wouldn’t mind seeing more of Diana and Clark.
Also worth noting that each universe only connects to avatars of New Genesis and Apokolips. Even when they fight Darkseid, it isn't the true form of Darkseid. It's like fighting his dandruff.
When Rob was talking about the teenager existential crisis I was sitting there thinking that all of it's true. These past years everything Rob said has been on my mind. I'm freaking out right now thinking more and more about this but hey as long as Rob is posting life's good.
My brotha, he didn't use his work to escape because he enjoyed it. It's a way to hide, run from and dismiss the pain that could possibly destroy you. I've been doing it for ages.
SuperT it is not as other people say. Clear MacGuffin. Clear setup. And it set up Flash surviving Crisis, Parallax in GL, Superman Reborn, Supergirl surviving Crisis. These will one day be revisited. Plus Warlord and points finding Arak .
Ok, I didn't watch hunger games, but it doesn't sound like the worst idea ever. Did it kill worlds that show up later that break continuity or was it all just inconsequential to the whole landscape?
GREAT VIDEO Rob! I really wish the Superman/Wonder Woman love was brought into rebirth. MUCH better couple than with Lois Lane. Glad Cyborg is getting the love he deserves. He needs a solo movie!
"Batman operates on fear so bad guys and the general public fear him". Never would I ever fear someone in a bat costume, Id laugh in his face! then clown him.
There's an issue of the Anarchy mini series where he goes to Apokalypse, takes on Darkside, and wins... It explains how the plane works pretty succinctly.
Rhis is in my top ten list of favorite Justice League stories. It sits at number 3 after JLA World War 3 and Justice by Jim Krueger and Alex Ross. I have one other Justice League story I think that you'd like to cover-JLA: Rock of Ages. A great and fun story.
I loved the idea of Superman and Wonder Woman! Haha the “Power Couple” imagined! Sometimes what gets people together is their common struggle, both Superman and Wonder Woman struggle to fit in to a regular world but at the same time have this huge responsibility to protect it. It’s nice to relate 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♀️
Convergence does happened that's how the older Superman and Louis lane come back. They just remain in on the sideline untill after the darkside wars, and only appeared because young Superman died.
I know there’s a lot of new stuff you’re doing, but I was wondering if you would do the X-cutioner’s song? The series that ran in 92’ I believe. I know it was old, but the story was really good.
I always thought of a hell dimension as a series of infinite realities relating to every individual that represents their ever present and ever evolving worst fears come to life.
I recall one instance where Supergirl actually flew to Apokolips in Pre-New 52 continuity. She actually arrived there as a tiny person in comparison to the giant Apokoliptians. Alluding to the fact that Boomtubes calibrate their users to the scale and proportions of that universe. Don't recall the issue number...
So the 52 thing is exclusively referring to the 52 worlds in the Orrey that the Monitor watches over. Grant Morrison's Multiversity and the recent Snyder Justice League comic go into detail on it.
Why has there never been an instance where the Justice League goes to Apokolips only to find other versions of themselves already fighting Darkseid lol.
Another great video bro! New 52 was the shit! All except for soft ass Aquaman. And Aquaman is far from a beast bro, My Little Pony & The Care Bears are harder than he is lol. Now you wanna talk about being a beast? Namor is your man. It's time you gave him the love & respect he!deserves
Even though I'm looking forward to Steppenwolf. These would have been my ideal bad guys for the Justice League trilogy: JL1: Darksied JL2: Crime Syndicate JL3: Anti-Monitor C'mon you know that would have been perfect!
I love the term licensed to print money in response to jeff johns writing And you say darksied was op but he was taken out by doomsday, was that just done for the sake of doing?
Yup..every darkseid that the league encounters is just an avatar with a fraction of the original's power..the only time real darkseid appears is in darkseid war when he was forced summon by grail to battle anti monitor..but i think it has been retcon since it was from the new 52 issue
"Green Lanturn's getting the idea that Batman cant do anything without prep time. So..." LOL
YeaItsMeMatt the shade is real 😂
Batman is always ready
YeaItsMeMatt I've been preparing all the time. I can't be stopped now. I don't need anymore prep time. I'm already beyond omega level
Batman sucks.
I am Batman Maybe Barbados.
"You're not just some guy in a bat costume are you?" gets me every damn time lol
I love how accurate the justice league dc animated movie was to this comic. Like scenes ripped from the pages accurate
Imo the best thing about new 52 was the redamption of darkseid.
Post crisis darkseid ( in the start of the 2000's) became a joke and less than a superman villain.
Originaly he one shoted superman with a slap to another planet.
And new 52 darkseid is finaly a team buster again.
And he has a badass designe.
While I'm gled they buffed him I still can't help but compare his to Thanos. With Dark side being raised by his daughter a again I hope Darksekd consistently is too much for the main JL
Tex Corps
Darkseid was originalt much stronger than this version aswell.
And what do yoy mean comparing with thanos ?
Kevin from The Office That's what I was thinking
Dark side was extremely inconsistent and even the Avatar excuse doesn't really hold up in some scenes scenario
I don't get it Darkseid exists out of time so why is he changed
Your channel is amazing, you make it a lot easier to understand the whole comic continuity and lore without having to read every issue, keep up the good work!
Get in the fucking robot Shinji
I just watched Justice League: War yesterday, nice timing :)
Yo rob since you mentioned convergence I challenge you to make a vid on the worst story you’ve ever read...your voice can turn turds into gold so we will still enjoy it
This is 3 years old but it needs to be said usually only fat guys talk about turds and farts in public...
Man Rob, you produce one of the best content on TH-cam, so much enthusiasm, its really a joy every time to watch your Videos.
"Batman annnnd the Superrrrr Seveeeennnn!!!"
The intro to an old Saturday morning cartoon show. Any elders out there remember that? In...1978-ish?
...some OG Batman...
I Loved the New 52 Superman. Also loved him with Wonder Woman. It makes so much more sense to me.
I'm new to comics. But I love how you explain them with pictures and clips and all that!
"When Hal Jordan the Green Lantern steps up he gets some too, when it comes to Wonder Woman stepping up she gets some too. Everybody get's a piece of this pie even if they want it or not."
"Everybody got a piece of this pie whether they wanted it or not" I died laughin, Rob b clownin lofl
"Everybody gets a piece of this pie whether they want some or not."
Man, Rob has some of the campiest yet hilarious quotes.
"Everybody gets a piece of this pie, whether they want it or not" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ayy, wake and bake. Good morning, lads.
Smoking here in WA too!
Tampa representing
YeaItsMeMatt Baking in WA too.
Edward Brewer ayyyyeeee tampa we in this peace.
Token it up right now lol
I love GL and Batman relationship it's so cool and funny 😂😂😂. Both of them don't like each other and annoy each other.
Green lantern: Like I was saying Green lantern can do anything.
Batman: Expect shut up apparently.
Green lantern: Wow someone forgot to take their true blood tonight.
Batman: I'm not a vampire. Lol 😂
"he gets some too" "she gets some too" 😂😂
Jim Lee is the GOAT.
choncy barbosa Jason Fabok >> Ivan Reis >> Kenneth Rocafort >> Jim Lee
Jim lee and Jason Fabok are my favourite artists
Comics explained: "You can't simply fly to Apokolips.."
Injustice Superman: Hold my cape.
One does not simply fly to Apokolips.
Another AWESOME video. I wish these were available as audio podcast files!!!
Finally ur doing new52 justice league!!!!! Probably the best thing in New52
This is one of my favorite JL comics

Hilarious when batman took the ring right off hal that was my favorite part
I was in the middle of part five of the marvel universe when I saw this notification. Good morning sir.
“Batman can’t do anything without prep time” 4:25 lmao shots fired
I thought Diana and Clark relationship worked extremely well. They were both loners, outcasts. They connected in a way that they couldn’t do with other people. It wasn’t just about their powers, but their personalities. I’ll always love Clark and Lois but I wouldn’t mind seeing more of Diana and Clark.
“I am entropy I am death I am... Darkseid.”
Anxiety is basically what happens when that list of questions you listed about puberty never gets answers.
Also worth noting that each universe only connects to avatars of New Genesis and Apokolips. Even when they fight Darkseid, it isn't the true form of Darkseid. It's like fighting his dandruff.
rob , you're the man bro , I love comicexplained. you're my comic guru, thanks.
I cherish the moment Hal realizes that Batman is just some dude in a suit. His reaction is priceless.
4:23 shots fired
The Batman shade is real!! Love it lol
When Rob was talking about the teenager existential crisis I was sitting there thinking that all of it's true. These past years everything Rob said has been on my mind. I'm freaking out right now thinking more and more about this but hey as long as Rob is posting life's good.

Philosophers - Def: A group of people who never stop having an existential crisis.
Now I wanna look up Convergence
I do too. Can somebody just tell me real quick how it breaks things so I can not want it to exist?
SuperT it is not as other people say. Clear MacGuffin. Clear setup. And it set up Flash surviving Crisis, Parallax in GL, Superman Reborn, Supergirl surviving Crisis. These will one day be revisited. Plus Warlord and points finding Arak .
Someone explain pleaae!
Braniac shoves a bunch of worlds together hunger games style. Some survived some didn't. Think the incursions in Marvel.
Ok, I didn't watch hunger games, but it doesn't sound like the worst idea ever. Did it kill worlds that show up later that break continuity or was it all just inconsequential to the whole landscape?
GREAT VIDEO Rob! I really wish the Superman/Wonder Woman love was brought into rebirth. MUCH better couple than with Lois Lane. Glad Cyborg is getting the love he deserves. He needs a solo movie!
"Batman operates on fear so bad guys and the general public fear him". Never would I ever fear someone in a bat costume, Id laugh in his face! then clown him.
Aquaman's run in the new 52 was pretty good.
I miss Martian Manhunter tho
I want to know the details of that FB in #7.
Yeah, I know he's a true member of the JL but I would choose cyborg to take his place among the original JL team.
Rob wants us to pretend that we've never heard that DC wants us to pretend that they've never published these stories before before.
Love the new 52 Justice League. It’s leaps and bounds better them the Justice League Rebirth. Please do the new 52 Aquaman run, its fantastic!
There's an issue of the Anarchy mini series where he goes to Apokalypse, takes on Darkside, and wins... It explains how the plane works pretty succinctly.
DC just got even greater, welcome to the fam Brian Michael Bendis
"... Geoff Johns writes it, it's a license to print money..." LMAO
Fun fact: Pandora shows up in every #1 in the 52 reboot in the background. You see her in the stands during cyborg's game.
New Genisis and Apokolips makes me think of Sonic CD, dunno why.
This is basically the Justice League War movie... Green Lantern calls Batman a douchebag, it was awesome.
I just realized how often I watch you explain stuff I've already read! XD
@4:24 bruh rob why're you still throwing shade? 😂😂👌
This may be my favorite vid you've done, well made!
Rhis is in my top ten list of favorite Justice League stories. It sits at number 3 after JLA World War 3 and Justice by Jim Krueger and Alex Ross. I have one other Justice League story I think that you'd like to cover-JLA: Rock of Ages. A great and fun story.
You forgot to mention that Hal didn't know who Bruce Wayne was 😂😂😂😂😂
Rob. You got the timeline right. Thanks. I have to explain that to so many. All hail Rob Corp.
I loved the idea of Superman and Wonder Woman! Haha the “Power Couple” imagined! Sometimes what gets people together is their common struggle, both Superman and Wonder Woman struggle to fit in to a regular world but at the same time have this huge responsibility to protect it. It’s nice to relate 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♀️
Charles Segovia it was boring
The children would be a bit OP but i'd love to see that
@@bigdurk4115 you need to reed more comics dude, read kingdome come, they have always felt atracction and you cant deny that.
@@EliasMerazVideos ahem, lois lane? does she suddenly not matter??
Hell yeah! Cyborg IS awesome. How can you not love him?
I learn a lot on your channel, thank you!
YES FINALLY I BEEN WAITING FOR ROB TO DO THIS ONE 😀😀😀 !!!
I've seen Justice League: War... It was great!
Convergence does happened that's how the older Superman and Louis lane come back. They just remain in on the sideline untill after the darkside wars, and only appeared because young Superman died.

Rob come on, you know exactly why D.C. loves when Wonder Woman, or any hot woman, eats an ice cream cone.
Your videos make my day man
I love how Rob will redo an old story he did
Get in the god damn robot, Shinji.
Glad you mentioned the power couple. i dont have a source. but when i was young im sure i read a card that said they were together
19:10 rob just invoked the Streisand effect. Now i have to find out what convergence was.
I recall one instance where Supergirl actually flew to Apokolips in Pre-New 52 continuity. She actually arrived there as a tiny person in comparison to the giant Apokoliptians. Alluding to the fact that Boomtubes calibrate their users to the scale and proportions of that universe. Don't recall the issue number...
Morning all and great vid Rob.
20:06 "...What is the meaning of life?... what Am I gonna be? should I get into the fucking robot Shinji? ..."
rob im here to tell u i love your energy
Great video this week my friend!
So the 52 thing is exclusively referring to the 52 worlds in the Orrey that the Monitor watches over. Grant Morrison's Multiversity and the recent Snyder Justice League comic go into detail on it.
Hold on a second. You mean Batman is just some guy in a Bat costume?
*ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!*
Ahahahahaha...Shinji is the LAST image you should give to describe teenage angst.
Rei/10 for the Eva reference 👌
5 years and 4 Robins? Yeah, I wouldn't trust superheroes like Batman either.
i liked the justice league war modifications how they introduced shazam instead of "Aquafresh"
Always like your anime comparisons
Interesting. Good review. Thanks again for posting.
You may also wanna do a video on forever evil for the return of the anti monitor. Just a thought!
Awesome video 👍👍
Was Justice League War based off this comic?
Davidoff Productions yep
Why has there never been an instance where the Justice League goes to Apokolips only to find other versions of themselves already fighting Darkseid lol.
Another great video bro! New 52 was the shit! All except for soft ass Aquaman. And Aquaman is far from a beast bro, My Little Pony & The Care Bears are harder than he is lol. Now you wanna talk about being a beast? Namor is your man. It's time you gave him the love & respect he!deserves
The funny thing is you're not wrong about MLP.
smashmaster521 no doubt bro
I'm not even a hardcore brony and I can confirm that with two words: Twilight's Kingdom.
The Justice League Movie will be so raw!!
Even though I'm looking forward to Steppenwolf. These would have been my ideal bad guys for the Justice League trilogy:
JL1: Darksied
JL2: Crime Syndicate
JL3: Anti-Monitor
C'mon you know that would have been perfect!
Hey this is exactly like the animated movie word for word
I love the term licensed to print money in response to jeff johns writing
And you say darksied was op but he was taken out by doomsday, was that just done for the sake of doing?
Yup..every darkseid that the league encounters is just an avatar with a fraction of the original's power..the only time real darkseid appears is in darkseid war when he was forced summon by grail to battle anti monitor..but i think it has been retcon since it was from the new 52 issue
patrick seery Darkseid was holding back and pis.
Hi
There is that episode of the justice league tv show where brainiac invades apokolips.
Thank you for doing Darkseid War, I'm a little more spotty when it comes to DC.
Have u seen "Justice League: War"? Is kinda this story isn't it?
So are you FINALLY going to do Forever Evil!?!?!
I'm actually planning on getting this story in preparation for the movie. Convenient.
Isn't the movie mostly based on this story with a few changes to fit the DCEU?
hal: why arent we out there helping batman we have to get out there and stop him
batman:SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
I loved New 52 Supes.
I am both a new fan of comics and an old fan.
