Thank you..... you do not KNOW how much this means to me and my children. We don't really have money for comics, and you are our best connection to my kids favorite heroes. You make these stories great. The music, the suspense, the way you tell the stories...... it means more than you know. Haha I actually have tears in my eyes. I appreciate you so much....
@@DunesBGaming bruh u must be dumb af, there is something called priorities. Internet is a priority along with food, water etc. After you put money on those you dont have more for entertainment such as comics...
Stories like this show how easy WB can have their cake and eat it if they actually thought for more than two minutes. You can have the Synderverse and create an alternate timeline where Val Zod exists and becomes A Superman after Clark goes mad in the dark Justice League timeline. And use Flashpoint to save him when the dark future is averted. Quick and easy plot that didn't take me two minutes to come up with after thinking about it for a minute.
As comicstorian said 1:42:22 "apparently on this planet the batmobile can fly" since when can it not fly it can transform into a normal car i believe, it can also turn into a tank and can also transform into the batjet which can fly but its still the same vehicle right or am i going crazy
I love listening to these comics i never knew all this info about the heros I only got to see the movies I have seen all the live action ones of both universes
Okay, sure, Superman destroys every religious building and monument- which is kinda bad-, but he also destroyed the Church of Scientology, soooo... At least this cloud has a silver lining~?
HOLY HELL THANK YOU SO MUCH! This saved me today, I had been in a funk, had 2 family members pass recently to 19. I am going to head out to the comic store and see whats there, havent bought comics in decades.... God bless, and thank you again!
Ya, totally agreed. Henry Cavill might be leaving the DCEU, which gives so many more possibilities on how to reboot the franchise. This storyline definitely has potential.
Rip brother. It’s crazy it’s only 2 comic related channels I follow and you’re one of them. I would sit and listen to the full 1-3 hr vids of the full stories like this one. My favs by you are injustice all parts and then the deceased. I sat and listen to them fully and was hooked. Always grew up liking comics bc of my dad but this made it so much more accessible and I didn’t feel left out not knowing what was going on bc you really explained it all or went to the start so we could figure it out as the stories went for the viewer. Blessed be your family and rest well.
I was surprised how much I enjoyed Earth 2 when I first read it. I like some of the new characterizations and it has some cool concepts. I wish DC would explore Earth 2 again, but ill be happy if we get a JSA ongoing.
Dark skinned Kryptonians are kind of an interesting idea. On one hand, in humans dark skin pigmentation is intended as a defense against the harmful UV radiation from the sun, but since Kryptonians live off solar radiation I'm guessing dark skinned Kryptonians can "quick charge" instead?
Black absorbs all spectrum of light while white reflects it..so darker skinned would be powerful or Kal el should have been dark skin all along. Sorta like Sunspot in Marvel.
That's disappointing to hear. Bc I've been working my way thru Earth 2. I'm just glad they explained how their was only one Darkseid, I was wondering how he was invading just one universe

Well in the Inj reality Batman had 4 Robins which clearly means that they had lots and lots of training and correct me if I'm wrong but in Earth 2 there were only 5 heroes while Inj had a whole roster who is still willong to fight even when they do what they do.
As soon as we saw superman kill shazam with heat vision (who eats that shit in like every other comic he's in) we knew that as interesting that story is, there's alot of bullshit in it.

I commend your narration. I didn’t know that story line was so good. I will go out and get this issues! The way you detailed the issues with the scene by scene is artistic. I just subscribed!
Earth 2 was a fun place to be before Rebirth. It was a place where Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman were seasoned veterans. Where Superman was married to Lois. And where the Justice Society-Adjacent lived. Now, though, we have actual Superman and the actual Justice Society so...
Yup! I’m 10 minutes in and they all know how to use the powers pretty well already. They all of sudden have the urge to be heroes and save all of humanity. We get no story of them at the beginning. Like wtf? This is so fast paced.
Here's Earth 2, which I'm finding better than Marvel's Infinity War; and yet the movies just shit on the whole DC universe. I feel bad bringing the movie stuff up here, but how many people would know this story from the comics compared to if it was from a movie? *Stories from the DC world deserve so much more, but it is just impossible to achieve even the slightest goal of spreading it to the world in a movie.*
Fortunate for me. My Grandpa had a pawn shop, where he got into collecting comics. When he stopped dealing them, he gave them alllllllll to me. Im missing a lot still. The hard to find or the expensive ones. I feel like i have a duty to complete the collection as best i can.
Your voice and intensity should land you as a TV star. Dude you are awesome! Have been listening for days now I Turn on my computer as I am printing. We own a Screen printing and sign shop. I am new to the comic world as a 56 year old. I am learning lots of back stories. Keep it up.
Earth 2 and Futures End are what got me into DC comics. Was so cool seeing this again. Thank you for giving it the Full Story treatment. Wish you'd cover FE but... know how much venomous hate that series gets. 💔
Wait so this flash has the speed of mercury soo technicaly he is probably one of the fastest things in the multiverse since he is the new god of speed right?
It's up to us long time fans to educate those uninformed and invite them to the fruits of comics. We can't bully or rebuke people for not knowing or the industry will not grow.
Mute Encore ... it’s a good story and I’m not a SM/DC fan at all!! This is all so different, the DC gods I guess. I believe in the little guy from Brooklyn who doesn’t run away! But still good story
Timothy Biggers Jr because that Batman grew up with Superman as childhood friends and had a loving wife and daughter that made him more caring while the New 52/Main Batman grew up a paranoid loner which is actually one of the main reasons Darkseid’s invasion on that Earth fails unlike his Earth 2 invasion.
I was saying MBJ is too short to play him and too young. Icon is over 400 years old and appears to be in his 40's, If he was in his teens it would be a period piece about the 1800's or early 1900s He was in a few JL books before but theres still legal issues over some Milestone characters so they are rarely used in comics
I remember thinking this while reading it but when there are cataclysmic events in comic books like this, I understand more and more why Toriyama made the Dragonballs
Thank you so much for making these videos Benny! these comics are really hard to find and very expensive in my country, i'd never know these stories if it weren't for you!
I think the craziest part of people freaking out about Val Zod is just how many people crap their pants without actually looking into what was going on. I understand that in this day and age it’s not the 90s anymore where if you’re a comic book fan you go to the comic books and that’s it. Today there are fans of both DC and Marvel who love all these characters but have never picked up a comic book in their life. And there’s nothing wrong with that! I don’t think we need to act like comic book elitist and call people fake fans for only being fans of these characters On the big and small screen. However before people lose their mind about things maybe they should do some research. What I saw everyone freaking out on Facebook wasn’t because Val Zod was going to get a movie. They were freaking out because they thought they were changing Clark Kent/Superman to an African-American to be more woke. Anyone that really knows the comic books knows about the multi-verse and there are so many different versions of these characters and some of them are different races in some universe is everyone is gender switched. If people would’ve just calm down and realize that Kal and Val are two different characters completely I don’t think they would’ve had that big of a problem. But because we live in an era where you have two dumb sides that just blindly support one side that kind of thinking doesn’t take into a fact. And I think the left is just as stubborn. I saw several people on the left that were happy with the idea of a black superman but they didn’t know it was Val either they thought they were just changing Clark Kent into an African-American. I understand why Warner Bros./DC does some of these things but I also think they could handle it better. Yes I do believe we need more representation of people of different ethnicities. Where Warner Bros. and DC completely dropped the ball when it comes to movies and television is that they already have so many great characters that are different races but they never give those characters the light of day. Can someone please tell me why we have not gotten a live action version of green lantern John Stewart in the movies yet? What about vixen? Vibe? Steel? Yes I know we’ve got some of these characters in the arrow verse but I think it would go along way to have them on the big screen. I’m so bummed out that Ray Fisher will not be coming back as Cyborg in the DC EU. It just feels like while I know Warner Bros. wants to do the right thing they just miss handle things sometimes. Bottom line is there is a lot both Warner Brothers/DC comics and the fans can be better at. I wish the companies of warner brothers and Disney both sometimes wouldn’t be so scared of not being looked at as woke that they would make better decisions and I wish the fans that lose their mind when they see a black superman or a black Batman would just calm down and realize they’re not replacing those original characters. Thank you for this video dude you Are my favorite comic book TH-cam page by far. Keep up the good work and thank you for doing your part to educate the fans.
It's the exact same issue with Miles Morales , Val-Zod is DCs Miles Morales not just story wise but people have this issue where a alternate black version of a character is the replacement of that character which people get offended by rather than just actually researching that character and learning about them
@@shurmarr No one’s asking you to read it man it’ll be OK if you don’t read it. Four people have, If you don’t want to there’s nothing wrong with that but don’t complain about it just don’t read the damn thing and keep it moving.

Does anybody else count whenever Comicstorian says "Giving it everything..."
How many everythings they got bruh?!!
its a good drinking game! when he says that, drink a shot!

Earth 2 was a fun place to be before Rebirth. It was a place where Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman were seasoned veterans. Where Superman was married to Lois. And where the Justice Society-Adjacent lived. Now, though, we have actual Superman and the actual Justice Society so...
That was awesome I'm never seen someone to tell the whole story like that you should do more of these thanks man I appreciate it
Wow this Earth 2 storyline is really annoying as hell. It reminds me of the drive-through lady in Dude Where's My Car. And then... And then...
Its trash and all over the place
And then....
And then....
And then....
And then....
AAAaaaannnddd thennn....
*ANDTHENANDTHENANDTHENANDTHEN!?!?*
Yup! I’m 10 minutes in and they all know how to use the powers pretty well already. They all of sudden have the urge to be heroes and save all of humanity. We get no story of them at the beginning. Like wtf? This is so fast paced.
I’m glad I’m not the only one that doesn’t like it like flash hawk h
Girl and green lantern lmao
Its confusing. Don't think it will ever catch on. Of course people will claim racism. Whatever.
1:35:30 "a great injustice has been done" I see what you did there
This is amazing really! The narrative, the soundtrack, the epic energy...
Please keep it up
Such a blessing to have you in my life sir.Please continue the Awesome work and the love you have of comics is infectious. Thanks again
Lol gay lantern he will soon gain the power of all rings and be the rainbow lantern 😂😂
Lol
The gay lantern
I think that what makes the White Lantern.
@@mindyours752 Yup. It would.
Pretty sure the Lanterns follow the Power Rangers Handbook. When it comes to colors and what they represent.
I watched this whole thing by accident I lost track of time
Thats how my weekends go now
Ikr thanks covid
Thank you for everything ❤️. RIP 🙏
I forgot how intense this story was. That's one hell of a ride right there.
That was a lovely narration! So much hard work. I wish you get the success you deserve and long for! :)
Here's Earth 2, which I'm finding better than Marvel's Infinity War; and yet the movies just shit on the whole DC universe.
I feel bad bringing the movie stuff up here, but how many people would know this story from the comics compared to if it was from a movie? *Stories from the DC world deserve so much more, but it is just impossible to achieve even the slightest goal of spreading it to the world in a movie.*
I feel like DC can pull it off with animation CGI and sequels but are too afraid of investing into that sort of production
When injustice 2 came up I was like "SO THIS IS HOW IT HAPPENED"
This story legitimately has NO calm parts. All anxiety, all gas, no breaks.
It’s pretty cool
Fortunate for me. My Grandpa had a pawn shop, where he got into collecting comics. When he stopped dealing them, he gave them alllllllll to me. Im missing a lot still. The hard to find or the expensive ones. I feel like i have a duty to complete the collection as best i can.
I love your videos your the reason I have all the knowledge I do. Your an amazing TH-camr and I watch every video
Love these videos man they get me through the day I really appreciate all the hard work you guys put in
Same here, love watching his and the Robb core videos lol
Your voice and intensity should land you as a TV star. Dude you are awesome! Have been listening for days now I Turn on my computer as I am printing. We own a Screen printing and sign shop. I am new to the comic world as a 56 year old. I am learning lots of back stories. Keep it up.
Earth 2 and Futures End are what got me into DC comics.
Was so cool seeing this again. Thank you for giving it the Full Story treatment.
Wish you'd cover FE but... know how much venomous hate that series gets. 💔
Around the hour-thirty-eight mark, this became Secret Wars.
Wish Superman had Omega beams too just like that evil superman
So this versions flash is basically like shazam having a god's powers
Shzaflash
Shalash
Flazam
Wait so this flash has the speed of mercury soo technicaly he is probably one of the fastest things in the multiverse since he is the new god of speed right?
@@AlEx-uj8rj yes, he ran so fast that he travelled back in time(?) Or to infinity idk this comic is confusing, but yeah he's fast af
Question why is John Constantine on earth 2 i don't really understand that part of earth 2 story
Tevya Smolka I think every earth has there own person ? Like say there’s a Superman on this earth
On earth two there would be a Superman 2 .
he was randomly transported there
NovaPrime Productions I understand that but having Constantine on earth 2 from prime earth sounds really confusing
Dankster question why was he transported to earth 2
I believe he was taken there by Dr.fate
Your storytelling abilities are phenomenal!!!
Love how you put the dark knight theme in areas of climax
Dear God ty for this Benny the ignorance of the fandom was getting to me
It's up to us long time fans to educate those uninformed and invite them to the fruits of comics. We can't bully or rebuke people for not knowing or the industry will not grow.
There was also a black deadshot and they chose the original deadshot and made him black in suicide squad
Don't let it ....i mean it's literally the same as history they BEEN copying melenated ppl ...its not too hard to wrap your head around man
Same here.
Mute Encore ... it’s a good story and I’m not a SM/DC fan at all!! This is all so different, the DC gods I guess. I believe in the little guy from Brooklyn who doesn’t run away! But still good story
Thank you for doing this one comicstorian 👍👍👍
Miss you so much benny
I love how in a minute Batman not only uses a gun, but uses it to kill someone....
I'm not gonna lie, this might be the best comic I have ever read.
That one panel of batman was more human than Bruce of our world has ever been
Timothy Biggers Jr because that Batman grew up with Superman as childhood friends and had a loving wife and daughter that made him more caring while the New 52/Main Batman grew up a paranoid loner which is actually one of the main reasons Darkseid’s invasion on that Earth fails unlike his Earth 2 invasion.
So 2020 can be worse. I'm gonna stop complaining now.
Isn’t Icon part of the DC Universe? Why not bring him in?
He's way too short to play Icon
Who? He can be young Icon, I mean he still looked like he was in his late teens
I was saying MBJ is too short to play him and too young.
Icon is over 400 years old and appears to be in his 40's, If he was in his teens it would be a period piece about the 1800's or early 1900s
He was in a few JL books before but theres still legal issues over some Milestone characters so they are rarely used in comics
Lenox W I’m sure the can write it to make sense.
I'm sure they will eventually
A film would be a great way to reintroduce him to the world
The Enthusiasm In This Just Made Me A Subscriber 💪
The voice 😭😭🤣🤣 "not any more" you hella entertaining @1:08:10
I remember thinking this while reading it but when there are cataclysmic events in comic books like this, I understand more and more why Toriyama made the Dragonballs
Thank you so much for making these videos Benny! these comics are really hard to find and very expensive in my country, i'd never know these stories if it weren't for you!
Still one of my favorite DC stories, this was entertaining to watch
any alternate universe superman after they exist: well, guess I'm evil
Thanks!
You know, the song "warrior from an unknown land" or stratovarius' infinite would describe this whole world's end story perfectly.
I think the craziest part of people freaking out about Val Zod is just how many people crap their pants without actually looking into what was going on. I understand that in this day and age it’s not the 90s anymore where if you’re a comic book fan you go to the comic books and that’s it. Today there are fans of both DC and Marvel who love all these characters but have never picked up a comic book in their life. And there’s nothing wrong with that! I don’t think we need to act like comic book elitist and call people fake fans for only being fans of these characters On the big and small screen. However before people lose their mind about things maybe they should do some research. What I saw everyone freaking out on Facebook wasn’t because Val Zod was going to get a movie. They were freaking out because they thought they were changing Clark Kent/Superman to an African-American to be more woke. Anyone that really knows the comic books knows about the multi-verse and there are so many different versions of these characters and some of them are different races in some universe is everyone is gender switched. If people would’ve just calm down and realize that Kal and Val are two different characters completely I don’t think they would’ve had that big of a problem. But because we live in an era where you have two dumb sides that just blindly support one side that kind of thinking doesn’t take into a fact. And I think the left is just as stubborn. I saw several people on the left that were happy with the idea of a black superman but they didn’t know it was Val either they thought they were just changing Clark Kent into an African-American. I understand why Warner Bros./DC does some of these things but I also think they could handle it better. Yes I do believe we need more representation of people of different ethnicities. Where Warner Bros. and DC completely dropped the ball when it comes to movies and television is that they already have so many great characters that are different races but they never give those characters the light of day. Can someone please tell me why we have not gotten a live action version of green lantern John Stewart in the movies yet? What about vixen? Vibe? Steel? Yes I know we’ve got some of these characters in the arrow verse but I think it would go along way to have them on the big screen. I’m so bummed out that Ray Fisher will not be coming back as Cyborg in the DC EU. It just feels like while I know Warner Bros. wants to do the right thing they just miss handle things sometimes. Bottom line is there is a lot both Warner Brothers/DC comics and the fans can be better at. I wish the companies of warner brothers and Disney both sometimes wouldn’t be so scared of not being looked at as woke that they would make better decisions and I wish the fans that lose their mind when they see a black superman or a black Batman would just calm down and realize they’re not replacing those original characters. Thank you for this video dude you Are my favorite comic book TH-cam page by far. Keep up the good work and thank you for doing your part to educate the fans.
It's the exact same issue with Miles Morales , Val-Zod is DCs Miles Morales not just story wise but people have this issue where a alternate black version of a character is the replacement of that character which people get offended by rather than just actually researching that character and learning about them
Nobody reading all that bro 💀
@@shurmarr No one’s asking you to read it man it’ll be OK if you don’t read it. Four people have, If you don’t want to there’s nothing wrong with that but don’t complain about it just don’t read the damn thing and keep it moving.
All facts
@@trvpmusic2569 People didn't like miles because he was a less interesting peter, people loved him once he actually became his own character in spider-verse. You guys just see race smh
"He is a sixty year old man!"
That cought me off guard, I thought he was like Dick Grayson or Night wing turned batman
Thank you for existing comicstorian 👍👍👍
thanks for these videos man
I would love to see a film based on this. It's so much like the World Wars situation but only between superpowered beings.
This was a collection of videos I have been waiting for!!! But can you start doing earth 2 society now?!?!
ty pls make more video like this! its like watching a movie
What you do is truely art, my gf loves the mcu but not a comic reader but u, u got her into them with your videos...keep doin what your doin and happy holidays
Thank you man, this is a lot of fun. Im sure a lot of people really appreciate your effort.
Your missing alot of the earth 2 storyline, with the Ultrahumanite and Dick Grayson son being alive etc. You should catch up.
He said earlier that he's doing his best to keep it simple.
Thats earth 2 society i dont know if he put it in this video but he said at the end of earth 2 originally that he didnt like society and wouldnt cover it
@@gzach70 oh ok
