The art teams of the decades later origin story of the Crimson Avenger needs a mention. Lots of mad research has created living dictionaries with fans, the Earth Two complete history. Thank You for an additional page, info relayed for fun...subscribing
I very much enjoyed this. As a modern fan, I know most of the heroes of this era only as often seen images, not detailed characters. Thank you for providing a flavor and history for them. Please continue, especially with the lesser known adventurers who pre-date costume-wearing heroes.
That's very much one of the things that got me into this in the first place. Personally, it was during a flashback segment watching Young Justice that had The Sandman on-screen. His mask was really unique and I felt like I had to learn more about him. That kinda... snowballed, and now I'm here 😅
Thank you for doing this I have just found and love this. I'm glad you are tackling DC I find a lot of good channels for marvel but yours is the best dc history I've seen. Again thank you
OK, I TOTALLY want a comic character called the Prevenger! Armed with future sight and taking out criminals before they commit their crimes, he/she is both hero AND villain.
I remember that story as about his last mission. However, you forgot to mention that on his way to the ship he saves the life of an Hispanic little boy and is remembered for that.
Absolutely true, I took note of that during the research but, considering Crimson Avenger has been shown to be remembered by quite a few people (most notably the still-living members of the Seven Soldiers of Victory), I didn't think it was relevant to cover. Besides, sometimes those sweet sort of moments are best enjoyed by reading them, not by being described to you by some fella with a microphone ;P
You missed some of the later history of the Crimson Avenger. After his death, a black woman became the second Crimson Avenger. She explained that the symbol of his chest was did not represent a sun, but a bullet hole. She indicated that he had been shot in the chest, but was vague as to whether or not he dued. She also appeared to have been shot in the chest. She had possession of the two guys CA used in his early days with the hywayman costume. The guns were cursed so she could never get rid of them. The guns would shoot evil/bad people on their own. This version of Crimson Avenger appeared in the long running JSA comic book which started in the 1990s.
I definitely should have mentioned the 'bullet hole icon' bit, since that does apply to his history, but I purposely wanted to focus on the original Crimson Avenger with this video. If I make these videos to the point that I reach the 90's (fingers crossed) I fully intend to talk about Jill Carlyle when we reach that point!
Kind of skipped over the fact that the Seven Soldiers of Victory first appeared in the Golden age in Leading Comics. Video makes it seem it was created later as an homage to the old characters which it was not.
Total mistake on my part! I wanted to focus on Crimson Avenger so I definitely sidelined the Seven Soldiers of Victory in a way that was detrimental to the video. I fully intend on making a video on the team later-on, so they'll definitely get a more thorough explanation then!
Crimson Avengers was the First superhero in Detective Comics. Yep a ripoff of Green Hornet. Later into a union super suit with Wing. I like how they gave him an Honoring death in the boat to save the City.it's

In Leading Comics Crimson Avenger was a particularly a leader of the group.
I absolutely adore this channel.
That's really heartwarming to hear! I know you've been watching for a while too and I want to say thanks for sticking with us, it means a lot to me :)

Thank you so much, that's very kind of you!

Both DC and marvel never really had any shame in ripping things off...
But they usually rip off each other.
I think they like to call it 'creative borrowing.'
@@crwhitwick "Divergent development" :P

The Seven soldiers were published in the golden age. They were not invented in the 70s to represent the goldeb age. They were in Leading Comics.
7 s0ldiers of victory were really in comics in the day, the7were not made up to remember the golden age..
