@Chi Ezike nah pretty sure he is so busted that nothing can stop him. But the thing that separates him from villains is that he isn't evil, it's that he is trying to understand the universe he wondered into. I'd say the only way to win against Manhattan is to convince him not to fight. He is a man of logic after all.
Sorry, but my asshole was tingling and i realized somebody must have mentioned the "Comic that shall not be named". Did i miss something or was there an actual reason to remind anybody on earth about that god forsaken dump on the face of comics?
While sitting on mars Dr Manhattan reads a dc comic book and goes hey the world should be more like this one, and begins creating a world with super powered beings to distract earth from noticing him.
Not at all, I thought this was absolutely riveting. As someone who has fallen away from DC comics this was a good way to get caught up and it actually does indicate just how powerful Dr. Manhattan is in the DCU.
Anyone else remember when Kyle split his white lantern ring into 7 other white rings in order to spread the life equation across them without killing himself? Yea me neither
if you remember, towards the end of "New Guardians" New 52, Kyle Rayner and the Templar Guardians split the White Lantern ring in seven, five of which sought out bearers on who would protect life in all its forms. they all defeated a mirror version of Kyle called Oblivion, then the five White Lanterns separated and carried on their own missions across the universe. since then, nothing has been heard of them
On the question of Dr. Manhattan (DM) being more powerful than a White Lantern.......what if it's not about being "more powerful", but being "more capable" with the powers available to him? As in, it's not about "how much power you have", but instead, "how you use it"? DM's powers originally weren't about reality manipulation specifically, but about understanding, perceiving, and being able to manipulate what makes reality what it is, matter and energy (past that, it gets into quantum physics, and that will get confusing). DM had some limitations (ahem, "SOME"), but he wasn't able to alter time back then. So, what if his ability to strip a White Lantern of their powers isn't about being more powerful than that, but simply understanding the White Lantern energies and the matter that makes the ring, how it all works, and just flipping the off switch??? If I were to put this in an example, imagine you've got a big death machine, something large, industrial sized, able to grind people up, kill them, and it's all metal. You put a tribal-type human near this thing, and they think it's a monster, or a god, or something, and they fear it. Maybe they even poke it with a spear or something, and this does nothing. Then you take a modern human, especially one with the right knowledge and experience (a military technician with combat training and experience), and that person faces the same machine thing. Instead of freaking out, they know it's a machine, it has to have a weakness, an off switch, or a power source, that it can be shut down. So, even though this machine thing is much more powerful than they are, this person knows it has a weakness, a vulnerability, an "off switch", and that this would be an integral part of the machine's design. Dr. Manhattan can do this, but with practically any and all energy and matter in the universe. This would include all Lantern Corp power sources in the emotional spectrum, as since these are part of what makes the DC universe a thing, then they would somehow have to fit into what is/isn't possible in Quantum Physics, as far as how that would work and be applied in the DCU.
It all boils down to being a higher dimensional being. Human are 4d being, hence we can only perceive and interact 3d and below world. Higher dimensional being, like MrXyz - a 4th dimensional imp, can have almost omnipotence within the 4th dimension, since they can bend and alter 3d laws at will. And since dr xyz himself is afraid of Manhattan, we can safely say that Dr Manhattan could be a being of even higher dimension.
Dieza4 When Kyle was trying to bring the Blue Lanterns back but was stopped. He said he felt a 'presence' that stopped him and destroyed his power as a white lantern.
In general in DC rebirth, Batman found the comedians button AKA the Watchmen button in the bat cave plus DC is having an event soon where Superman meets Dr Manhattan and it's all canon. Dr Manhattan lately has been messing with the dc universe
It could just as well be a new Nekron level Green Lantern foe teased for a point in the future even beyond Doctor Manhattan. While he is a good suspect for this, I'm taking it with a grain of salt to say the least until Doomsday Clock.
Just once I want to see a Green Lantern who looks like a normal guy with a beer gut and average looks. As there has been some confusion I'm not talking a gigantic gut here people but one that you see on the average guy. You know like the dude Al from Tool Time.
The question is why would Dr. Manhattan disrupt the resurrection of the blue corps and eliminate the White lantern is it because of the balance of life and death issue or so no one can rival his power or because Kyle has become so powerful the writers had to remove the white light? does anybody know for sure?
Why indeed. Why does Manhattan interfere at all with anything? For most of the story in Watchmen, he surrendered to destiny and to a concept that he cant change anything because to him, it had already happened. But I think he is starting to realize that these futures he is seeing is only going to be true if nothing happens to change it...which in the this case he doesn't change anything cause he believed he couldn't so he saw nothing but the outcome to that line of thinking. It's like taking hope away because "what's the point" kind of mentality. He figured out he was wrong about this for the most part, realized that miracles exist, and that he can make a difference based on the possibility of creating miracles....turning oxygen into gold.
DC knows how to use diversity right, they didn't kill Hal Jordan or take away his powers and replace him with the other 2 guys like Marvel does when they kill off a character.
Josh cough that's what they originally did with Kyle Rainer cough followed by Simon Baz. Before retooling his character by giving him a partner to make up for what he was a lacking as a character
Amazing Zero don't you dare start bringing facts in on this, Marvel is clearly for the snowflake libtards while DC will never misstep. Why do we need to represent everybody on earth, can't we keep it to land owning males?
Not only that. I mean they did do that with Ultimate Peter Parker but the story of the dead of Peter Parker and the rise of Miles Morales were well written so it was fine. Most of the others deads/replacements felt so forced and lazy ways to introduce diversity with new characters. It's like they knew they couldn't make interesting characters so they had to kill their old characters so you actually care about the new ones.
It's entirely speculation, but most people agree that the cause was Manhatten. Kyle's power was obstructed by "a presence, an intruder," and his white lantern ring was destroyed and split into the 7 rings it originally was. As Rob explains, someome did this, and the most obvious candidate was Manhattan. Of course, no official confirmation by DC through the stories yet, we'll have to keep waiting to see. But most fans agree that it was Manhattan.
Candi Soda He used insinuation, since Dr. Manhattan was technically responsible for the destruction of ring by blocking his attempt at bringing back the blue lanterns. It's technically semantics, but whatever.
@@saltyvet646 you’re tripping, he is articulate specifically because he wants you to listen to his words not so you can come up with your own opinion on the subject lmfao
So my question in this whole arc with Manhattan is: "Why?" What would cause Dr Manhattan to go through and do all of this stuff, killing or disabling so many powerful beings. He has never really shown a tendency to be power-hungry or vindictive. The only time he killed in the original graphic novels was when he was first discovering his powers (when he was being used as a weapon), and to kill Rorschach when he threatened to tell people what happened. There must be a reason why he is going through all the trouble of doing all this - and for hiding it. I don't think he is ultimately going to be the big villain. I think DC is leading up to a big reveal, showing that Manhattan was trying to prevent some sort of greater calamity by doing lesser evils.
Dr. Manhattan can travel through time, create and destroy universes, travel between parallel universes, manipulate reality in multiple, if not all, universes, read minds, and is virtually omnipotent and omniscient. He's even able to play out alternate timelines to any universe he is in, and choose the outcome he wants in those universes. He is only limited by two constraints - He can't know what is happening in regions of spacetime with high tachyon concentrations with actually visiting them physically, and he is still part of a predetermined universe, and thus governed by fate/destiny. That is it. So yeah, Dr. Manhattan is the strongest character in the DC universe right now, with the only potential contender being the Presence.
Isn't doctor Manhattan omnipotent? Like can see and interact with everything and every time at once? I'm not sure if white lanterns can basically manifest themselves in multiple places at the same time, but I remember seeing Manhattan doing it in the movie which leads me to think he is a notch above.
He probably is slightly weaker than Lucifer Morningstar. He is practically omniscient but his powers aren't as powerful as Lucifer. However, Dr Manhattan is known for getting experientially stronger the longer he's alive. His power to manipulate time and laws of the universe gets way stronger.
I had to thumb down this video. The title is about Dr. Manhattan destroying the White Lanterns not a 15 minute ramble about everything that has to do with space, all of the different colored Lanterns, and everything else. I couldn't make it past the 14 minute mark.
Dr. Manhattan is basically a god and not in the loose wishy-washy way that DC and Marvel use the term. Hes insanely powerful without even slightly trying to be.
If this Universe was "created" by Dr. Manhattan, then nothing should be more powerful than him in it. If he made this universe than he made the Specter of this universe , he made God of this universe.
So, I feel like ION Kyle Raynor was basically not any different in the terms of power and ability than Dr. Manhattan. He was capable of existing at multiple points at the same time, I'm sure that time travel would have been academic as well. His ability to understand and control energy and matter seemed limitless. Seeing as Kyle Raynor as the White Lantern should be an upgrade, unless Kyle is no longer the Host to the White Entity (I'm a bit behind on events). As Host of the White Entity Kyle should not be able to be overpowered by Dr. Manhattan, if he's just a Lantern (even a white one) than being overpowered is at least semi-plausible.
Man... I dwell in to the commentaries looking for a good discution about the video, and all you guys can do is argue about someone else's opinion on a whole different topic.
Rob, I am being one hundred percent serious right now. Do NOT get into a fight with Diversity & Comics! Shit's already divided enough as it is with an openly hostile and, frankly, spiteful Marvel staff. More division is the last thing we need right now.
i think doctor Manhattan IS more powerful than ONE white lantern. However, should Kyle Reiner reconnect with the white lantern spectrum and induct others to a new white lantern core, collectively, they would stand a fighting chance against doctor Manhattan for a time.
this makes no sense dr manhattan is an actual omnipotent. he could literally rewrite reality and make the emotional spectrum disappear. beings on dr.manhattan and mister mxyzptlk level don't have to play fair. dr.m pays the price for having no humanity for all of his great power. kyle weiner pays the price of having some emotional outbreak every other episode and getting jobbed on the bigscreen. this would be like an ant facing a nuclear bomb. nothing is stopping dr.m from doing anything to retcon kyle or lanterns from existence or simply changing the narrative/meta plot flow. i won't lie that a competent green lantern or lantern ring user is a neigh omnipotent at their highest scales but thats it. they are at the peak neigh and questionable at best seeing how often they lose to street level thugs.(probably also due to bad writing) but an actual omnipotent with the 3 big O's is going to win always in these sort of faceoffs.
Hey Rob, just wanna let you know I love your channel and great job with your vids. I think you're entitled to have an opinion and nothing is as simple as left and right and I like how you speak your opinion no wonder what side it falls on! You're just YOU. So anyway, keep doing you bruh! Your channels constantly getting better!
+Hariyanto Agung Prasetyo | Even the Presence cannot kill the Monitor-Mind the Overvoid, or the Writer -- the Writer being the true omnipotent Supreme Being (i.e.: true God) of the entire omniverse of "DC Comics."
DC is buying up other comics to the point they are screwing up their own cannon characters. The Watch Men don't even belong in the same universe as the main cannon DC characters. Doc. Manhattan has been made MORE OVER POWERED then any DC character around. Dr. Manhattan is so powerful.. if he farts he could end all life.. They should have never brought Watchmen into the DCU.. But that is just my Opinion..
Title is clickbait. This is all about the Lanterns, and Dr Manhattan is finally mentioned briefly after 14:00 Don't waste your time on this. Rob, you robbed us.
ComicsExplained "Dear Anti-Diversity crowd, make an argument against diversity or forced diversity without sounding racist." 1. There is no "anti-diversity" crowd. It's not like there's been a Secret Empire of Nazis hiding amongst comic book fans. 2. Marvel book sales are unequivocally bad. The market has spoken. 3. "Forced diversity" *is* racism. How exactly does one *force diversity?* Sounds Draconian.
I don't understand how you go after people who don't like certain modern characters of color even though they like characters like Storm, Black Panther, Vixen, Icon, etc. The way you attack Diveristy & Comics is rude while he is respectful to you. This is coming from someone who disagrees with him a lot.
Dr Manhattan takes OP to the absolute extreme, enough said. With not much more than a finger snap, he can alter reality and wipe out an entire group of individuals.. That's just nuts
Even though there's only a slightest bit the title had something with the video, I agree Manhattan might be the one interrupting it. You know, he doesn't have any emotions and the fact that he's blue
I think Doc is definitely more powerful; for one thing, he doesn’t really even need the connection to life, death, or any emotional spectrum to be as powerful as he is. He just is. That’s god-level stuff.
Serious question/idea Rob: You have a series about different marvel characters and their ranks; Omega Level, beyond omegea level, etc. Is there one like that for DC? Going over TOAA, Presense, Manhattan, Supes (and maybe supes prime/one million), white lanterns etc. I didn't see one anywhere and I think this would be a good series/playlist for you while exposing people to other powerful DC characters.
agreed it makes even less sense why there are lantern people thinking a guy who could literally just delete the very force that grants you your power from reality is someone you could beat. how do you beat someone who could literally flat out remove your power in the blink of the eye and erase you from all timelines? you can't even attack him as he doesn't even need a body except to dab on you. he literally has all 3 of the BIG O's.
There we go bro! THAT'S how you do a video! I admit, my knowledge of the Lantern mythos is scant at best, but this was just absolutely stellar! For the record, I agree w/you that while Manhattan is powerful, but up against a whole contingent of the JL, I Don't see him pulling off a victory. Anyway, again bro, great video
No, Relic threatened & attacked all the Lantern Corps because the constructs that their rings create is made of 100% Source energy. And that after millennia of use, they've depleted the reservoire of Source energy containrd on the other side of the Source Wall. The Source is the energy which makes the universe possible, and every time a Lantern from any corps uses their rings, they're draining the Source
Doesn’t mean he more powerful than Kyle it’s just dr manhattans be around a lot longer than Kyle and knows his abilities and used them a lot longer than Kyle has been using his white lantern abilities.
Hey guys, try to avoid posting comments with massive spoilers for future stories please.

hey, since the white ring has split itself in the other rings of the spectrum does this means that now there are two orange rings?!

I think that Dr Manhattan is more powerful than the entire justice league as white lanterns. No way Manhattan loses to just 7 white lanterns.

Damn dude. 15 minutes of lantern talk and you briefly talk about Doctor Manhattan and not even as you did in the title. This was clickbait dude
Settle down.
Nah he's right, Dr Manhatten barely even came into the vid nevermind destroy all the white lanterns.

Dr. Manhattan can travel through time, create and destroy universes, travel between parallel universes, manipulate reality in multiple, if not all, universes, read minds, and is virtually omnipotent and omniscient. He's even able to play out alternate timelines to any universe he is in, and choose the outcome he wants in those universes. He is only limited by two constraints - He can't know what is happening in regions of spacetime with high tachyon concentrations with actually visiting them physically, and he is still part of a predetermined universe, and thus governed by fate/destiny.

No nekron is probably stronger than manhattan becouse death is the most powerful thing for god sake he killed the spectre
Josh Davis The Presence is the most powerful character in the DC universe
Yes but nothin can kill nekron he is death but you can destroy the pressence by killing the entity so yes and no
El Bjermeno since theres no more white lanterns, i hope they bring back nekron/black hand into Rebirth.
What about the Superman that was stronger than the presence? The one taught by the presence.
The Green Lantern world and story is one of the best. I love the Green Lantern.
Dr. M…has no opponent. He can just Will anything and anyone out of existence.
I always wondered how Kyle reverted back to a green Lantern. I guess he would've been too OP as a white Lantern, so they made that ritual go wrong lol
The DBZ fighters part where Gohan screams NO had me laughing so hard
holy shit... i nearly pissed myself....
Isn't doctor Manhattan omnipotent? Like can see and interact with everything and every time at once? I'm not sure if white lanterns can basically manifest themselves in multiple places at the same time, but I remember seeing Manhattan doing it in the movie which leads me to think he is a notch above.
Some people can beat him, like the presence, or anyone even near his power
He probably is slightly weaker than Lucifer Morningstar. He is practically omniscient but his powers aren't as powerful as Lucifer. However, Dr Manhattan is known for getting experientially stronger the longer he's alive. His power to manipulate time and laws of the universe gets way stronger.
Aside from subject, _I too hate when recovery software can't be recovered. It's a hit and miss process,_ so thanks for taking the time to record this.
Dr Manhattan would definitely beat an entire gaggle of white lantern
I had to thumb down this video. The title is about Dr. Manhattan destroying the White Lanterns not a 15 minute ramble about everything that has to do with space, all of the different colored Lanterns, and everything else. I couldn't make it past the 14 minute mark.
what about Amazo, the android? is he powerful?
No hes weak
Well Amazo is basically Trigon tier in terms of power but he's actually not as strong as people make him out to be.
Nah
@@Grimdock trigon, Raven’s daddy? I don’t think Amazo is that powerful I can be wrong though
@@MrEherndon5 I guess it depends what version of Amazo or what version of Trigon.
Dr. Manhattan is basically a god and not in the loose wishy-washy way that DC and Marvel use the term. Hes insanely powerful without even slightly trying to be.
I love your voice... So calm & soothing.
It's like every night you're reading bedtime stories to me.
Thanks 🙂
So that was just an explanation of the lanterns and then a "maybe it was him?" at the end. Great
Wait, so does this mean there are 2 orange lantern rings right now? Really hope they don't forget about that.
I loved kyle rayner as a white lanturn. This kinda blows.
So... Basically , Dr Manhattan is the molecule man of DC!! lol
No bro.not at all.m8 what?
Dr Manhattan is WAY stronger then that, like WAY stronger, think more Beyonder.
Mr Manhattan just wants to be the only blue guy in this universe.
If this Universe was "created" by Dr. Manhattan, then nothing should be more powerful than him in it. If he made this universe than he made the Specter of this universe , he made God of this universe.
So, I feel like ION Kyle Raynor was basically not any different in the terms of power and ability than Dr. Manhattan. He was capable of existing at multiple points at the same time, I'm sure that time travel would have been academic as well. His ability to understand and control energy and matter seemed limitless.
Seeing as Kyle Raynor as the White Lantern should be an upgrade, unless Kyle is no longer the Host to the White Entity (I'm a bit behind on events). As Host of the White Entity Kyle should not be able to be overpowered by Dr. Manhattan, if he's just a Lantern (even a white one) than being overpowered is at least semi-plausible.
Man... I dwell in to the commentaries looking for a good discution about the video, and all you guys can do is argue about someone else's opinion on a whole different topic.
Rob, I am being one hundred percent serious right now. Do NOT get into a fight with Diversity & Comics! Shit's already divided enough as it is with an openly hostile and, frankly, spiteful Marvel staff. More division is the last thing we need right now.
Man, I love the level of effort you put into your videos. Great job as always
I just love that Kyle Rainer is a Nine Inch Nails fan.
i think doctor Manhattan IS more powerful than ONE white lantern. However, should Kyle Reiner reconnect with the white lantern spectrum and induct others to a new white lantern core, collectively, they would stand a fighting chance against doctor Manhattan for a time.
Lmao then Dr manhattan changes the functions of the lanterns at a sub atomic level lol
this makes no sense
dr manhattan is an actual omnipotent.
he could literally rewrite reality and make the emotional spectrum disappear.
beings on dr.manhattan and mister mxyzptlk level don't have to play fair.
dr.m pays the price for having no humanity for all of his great power.
kyle weiner pays the price of having some emotional outbreak every other episode and getting jobbed on the bigscreen.
this would be like an ant facing a nuclear bomb.
nothing is stopping dr.m from doing anything to retcon kyle or lanterns from existence or simply changing the narrative/meta plot flow.
i won't lie that a competent green lantern or lantern ring user is a neigh omnipotent at their highest scales but thats it.
they are at the peak neigh and questionable at best seeing how often they lose to street level thugs.(probably also due to bad writing)
but an actual omnipotent with the 3 big O's is going to win always in these sort of faceoffs.
Well duh dr. Manhattan stronger than a White Lantern play there's no doubt that Dr Manhattan can literally turn space Jesus to sugar
I always thought the daily show with Jon Stewart was the best version of the green lanterns
Excellent production. Thank you. Looking forward to getting caught up on the Green Lantern comics now.
Hey Rob, just wanna let you know I love your channel and great job with your vids. I think you're entitled to have an opinion and nothing is as simple as left and right and I like how you speak your opinion no wonder what side it falls on! You're just YOU. So anyway, keep doing you bruh! Your channels constantly getting better!
if it is Dr. Manhattan then we finally have some example of his abilities...which may well be limitless. I mean he friggin resurrected himself ffs!!
Could proably beat the OneAboveAll
Aung Zaw wow, you idiot
The Presence is above allof thing, even Lucifer cannot kill The Presence
+Hariyanto Agung Prasetyo | Even the Presence cannot kill the Monitor-Mind the Overvoid, or the Writer -- the Writer being the true omnipotent Supreme Being (i.e.: true God) of the entire omniverse of "DC Comics."
+Aung Zaw probably not but he is powerful
Alas the space jesus is dead , universe is in peril
Harsh Gupta you do realize this is an entire fantasy & in reality all of this is fake and isn’t how this existence actually works?
Fame RL No it's real
Fame RL And here I thought I was reading exactly how the universe works.
*sarcasm*
Space Jesus loses to a Smurf ok now thats unreal
Thanos overpowering Galactus!?!?!?! Now that would be an awesome ComicsExplained.
I'm glad you mentioned Imperiex
he's super strong underrated character
i wish you make some videos about Imperiex, Captain Atom & Captain ADAM.
retitle this video. You just made up Dr Manhattan being in this.
Nope he was in it
Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Coz this story is awesome and
Gives an escape from reality
Like if you get the reference 😀😀
DC is buying up other comics to the point they are screwing up their own cannon characters. The Watch Men don't even belong in the same universe as the main cannon DC characters. Doc. Manhattan has been made MORE OVER POWERED then any DC character around. Dr. Manhattan is so powerful.. if he farts he could end all life.. They should have never brought Watchmen into the DCU.. But that is just my Opinion..
Welcome back to:
comics kinda explained - to the best of my ability
Kratos with a blue lantern ring.
Title is clickbait. This is all about the Lanterns, and Dr Manhattan is finally mentioned briefly after 14:00 Don't waste your time on this. Rob, you robbed us.
Presence is dead in New Lucifer comic
WHAT?!! WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?!!!!
ComicsExplained, In New Lucifer 2016 final issue #19 Lucifer killed god
max ocean how can the presence die
ThisAwesome Gamer, see Lucifer (2016) final issue #19
ComicsExplained Rob, would be great if you could do some Vertigo.
There’s still 6 other White Lanterns...Kyle had to split the ring into 7 remember....
Content is always so good keep it up bro
ComicsExplained "Dear Anti-Diversity crowd, make an argument against diversity or forced diversity without sounding racist."
1. There is no "anti-diversity" crowd. It's not like there's been a Secret Empire of Nazis hiding amongst comic book fans.
2. Marvel book sales are unequivocally bad. The market has spoken.
3. "Forced diversity" *is* racism. How exactly does one *force diversity?* Sounds Draconian.
I don't understand how you go after people who don't like certain modern characters of color even though they like characters like Storm, Black Panther, Vixen, Icon, etc. The way you attack Diveristy & Comics is rude while he is respectful to you. This is coming from someone who disagrees with him a lot.
Great, DC and their over powered characters. Dr. Manhattan, come on down!!!
Dr Manhattan takes OP to the absolute extreme, enough said.
With not much more than a finger snap, he can alter reality and wipe out an entire group of individuals.. That's just nuts
Dude I fuckin LOVE this channel! Can hear your a true fan with the passion in your voice and the way you explain it is perfect...keep it up
Dang it, Manhattan the one good thing in a long time and you take it away.
Even though there's only a slightest bit the title had something with the video, I agree Manhattan might be the one interrupting it. You know, he doesn't have any emotions and the fact that he's blue
Let's be real here the comment section on a comics explained video is the best thing coming out of DC rebirth right now
John Stewart got that fresh ass lineup
great video . very well explained .. love it ..subscribed
Take a drink every time he says "basically" in the video.
truthfullyl, I never even thought about dr manhattan being the one who blocked kyle.
Relic appeared doing the Lights Out event
The voice is growing on me. Nice vid 😂
Damn Rob. You really did name it that
dude rob i love your comics and please continue this amazing work that your doing
I think Doc is definitely more powerful; for one thing, he doesn’t really even need the connection to life, death, or any emotional spectrum to be as powerful as he is. He just is. That’s god-level stuff.
Serious question/idea Rob: You have a series about different marvel characters and their ranks; Omega Level, beyond omegea level, etc. Is there one like that for DC? Going over TOAA, Presense, Manhattan, Supes (and maybe supes prime/one million), white lanterns etc. I didn't see one anywhere and I think this would be a good series/playlist for you while exposing people to other powerful DC characters.
I love when Rob uses the term "Space Jesus" lol
Dr. Manhattan is unbelievable op character he would definitely not lose that fight
agreed it makes even less sense why there are lantern people thinking a guy who could literally just delete the very force that grants you your power from reality is someone you could beat.
how do you beat someone who could literally flat out remove your power in the blink of the eye and erase you from all timelines?
you can't even attack him as he doesn't even need a body except to dab on you.
he literally has all 3 of the BIG O's.
Doc Manhattan is the personification of the physical universe itself - he could take on a thousand white lanterns and come out on top.
I like "The Presence" is just God from the Lucifer graphic novel series haha well played
That nooooo!!! Killed me 😂👏🏽👏🏽
I know I'm asking for throwbacks, but could you do videos for Emerald Twilight and the Magik Darkchilde story?
Well that was a nice 17 minutes of lantern league lore, with a speculation that maybe, just maybe Dr Manhattan was the one that interfered.
you just name dropped Imperiex, Rob. Now you HAVE to do a story on him!
There we go bro! THAT'S how you do a video! I admit, my knowledge of the Lantern mythos is scant at best, but this was just absolutely stellar! For the record, I agree w/you that while Manhattan is powerful, but up against a whole contingent of the JL, I Don't see him pulling off a victory. Anyway, again bro, great video
I think in a straight up fight it would be close, so Dr. Manhattan picked a moment Kyle would be most strained and chose to attack then.
Darkside Royalty Lore basically
No, Relic threatened & attacked all the Lantern Corps because the constructs that their rings create is made of 100% Source energy. And that after millennia of use, they've depleted the reservoire of Source energy containrd on the other side of the Source Wall.
The Source is the energy which makes the universe possible, and every time a Lantern from any corps uses their rings, they're draining the Source
funniest part of the video was the gohan "NOOOOO" gif
Doesn’t mean he more powerful than Kyle it’s just dr manhattans be around a lot longer than Kyle and knows his abilities and used them a lot longer than Kyle has been using his white lantern abilities.
