People often hate Injustice, but fail to recognize moments like this is what makes the story unique not just a war but a war of morals a war between brothers and former friends I think that’s why Injustice is one of my favorite stories
@@aguywithalotofopinions412 yeah, the stories of the games are generally pretty weak though 2 puts in a decent-ish attempt. But the comics surrounding either beat both.
Snyder missed this and just went boom boom super hero fight blah blah. The brotherhood between Superman and Batman hasn't even been explored and he went batman v superman on us
People like to remark on the fact that Batman is the man and Bruce is the mask, but Superman's friendship makes it so much more. Bruce can actually exist thanks to people like Alfred, Clark, Selina, etc. When Bruce loses Clark he doesn't just lose the man, he loses everything Clark represents. When he says "You taught me that justice doesn't always have to come from the darkness" in Hereafter, he's not just talking about crime fighting philosophies, he's talking about his very view of human (well you know) nature, and how Superman represents such a radical change from how he viewed human nature before.
Your right about that one. Superman and Batman's relationship is so deep that you can actually see past their costumes, they're personas and see the men that they truly are, Clark and Bruce. This is backed even more when Bruce actually goes to superman for advice during the red hood story's In both comic and animated.
That first part is pushed on even more with how Batman views himself as an instrument of justice, meanwhile Bruce is the human part. Batman is so deep into the idea that he is just a tool that he doesn’t care about his own relations to the degree a normal human would. Bruce Wayne, on the other hand, cares very much about the others around him.
That many see " Batman is the man and Bruce is the mask" is the tragedy of Batman. As much as many claim that Batman/Bruce does not reach out to them, they do not take the time to see the man as a whole.
@@randomusernameCallin it's a self inflicted tragedy. He calls himself Batman in his inner monologue. Not Bruce- to him, Bruce is just a day job to pass the time and fund the war.
In a way both of them saw each other as the impossible man and held each other to impossible standards. Which shows just how much respect they had for each other.
It's so endearing to see Superman call his parents Ma and Pa. It makes him feel more human than almost anything else to me. I think Superman's dad is one of my favorite characters. Especially later, when everything has already kind of started falling apart, at the Fortess of Solitude. Mr. Kent already got hit in the shoulder by the Green Arrow's arrow that Superman deflected, and Superman wants to go after Batman and company, so he's just like "I don't have time for this" and Mr. Kent is like, "Yes, you do." Such a dad.
Superman: "The Joker has killed my Lois" 😢 Everyone's reaction: "OH, NO!!! WE ARE REALLY SORRY, CLARK!!!" Diana's reaction: "This is where FUN begins" 😎
The one thing I'm still surprised never comes up in Injustice is just how many villains have these guys faced who used personal loss to justify horrible acts? How many villains motivated by grief? How many dictators didn't want what happened to them to happen ever again in a misplaced act of insisting everything is fine? Clark should know this has never worked before. He should know he's taken down people making the exact same excuses. But its like he gets amnesia.
every once in a while they remind us at just how fucking great Martha and Jonathan are and I love it every time, especially mixing them up with other heroes like Batman or Martian Manhunter, etc. You could make a banger miniseries of them just getting the chance to interact with various members of the Justice League that they wouldn't normally get to otherwise. Or even Lex Luthor.
With the every other character humanized throught their faults and flaws, he sheer level of ideal parenting the Kents represent makes them seem like the most unreal of them all.
I read a comment from an injustice 2 video in regards of Batman apologizing to Superman where someone said Batman never really got over his parents death, which in turn sort of blocked him from fully being there for Superman. Obviously what Superman was not the best course of action, but I understand why he did it, and instead of Batman being there he just blocked him out. Not in a negative way but in a sort of “ Killing is bad “ instead of “ What you did was wrong, but I am also here for you “ since Lois death caused all of this. Injustice has to be one of the darkest best storylines thus far!
The Injustice comics vs games are one of the biggest examples of the hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby meme I can think of. I appreciate that although Superman is the antagonist, he has nuances and is clearly unhappy about the things he does but believes what he is doing is for the greater good. Compare that to the games where Superman is twirling his moustache every two seconds and murders a child because plot. I wish the comics didn't have to be tied to the games as much so they could explore these ideas in full without being bogged down by video game storytelling
Flash's mind: "Superman's latest acts are starting to worry me. I fear he may be becoming a super-villain..." Injustice Superman: "Eh, Barry. Wanna play chess with me?" Flash's mind: "Yep, he's totally a villain now..."
That last panel... a man who nearly destroyed everything with the power of a god in his grief now just a speck, only big enough to express his pain in a way any human can see.
I have to say thank you to this man and helping me understand a lot about myself. I never thought what i went through was trauma but everyone tells me and now I'm older I do realize I have a lot lol. So thank you for making me understand my stuff from different prescriptive.
Batman: Superm- Clark. I’m so sorry that I wasn’t a better friend to you. I’m sorry I wasn’t strong enough to help you. As far I’m concerned, the world ended when you broke bad. All hope died when she did… but I promise you, Clark. I swear on my last breath, that I will fight for what remains. I will protect what survived the End. And I will ensure that whatever’s left will outlive us both. That is my oath, my mission, my duty. I owe it to you, Clark. My friend, my… brother. My hero. What I do now, I do in your name. Maybe one day, hope can be revived.
If Bruce did this sooner if he did this the day in the batcave when Clark went to him all this could have been avoided but it was too late Clark already sees him as an enemy and the memory’s are just that a time before the darkness before the world’s finest became the worlds greatest enemies
The ending makes me cry everytime🧎🏽♂️💔. I miss the good ol days that bruce had with Clark, we never zee them together in any sort of media sharing such great quality time together like how they used to, and im pretty sure these last few panals in this specific issue of injustice was the last time we saw that. I miss the heroes they were. I miss.. The World's Finest🦇🦸🏻
Your character essays on the dc characters has made me interested in watching them more The story telling, character development, honestly its such a blast to listen to em ^^
He made so many videos about trauma that I torrented the book (The Mnemonic Imagination) and started reading myself. (Ps: pls keep doing it, I love every single one of those trauma videos)
This made me cry because in the end we all hurt no matter the super powers or our level of mental strength we all need someone to be there when we cry, a shoulder to lean on.
It's amazing how it feels like this part of the comic understood the assignment. "What if Superman turned evil fascist dictator because Joker killed Lois." While all the rest of Injustice heard "What if a guy masquerading as Superman was an evil dictator."
This video has been recommended in my feed since it debuted, and I kept avoiding it. Normally, I love watching videos from your channel, but I have a bias against INJUSTICE and how it's help up as such a great Superman story. "Immoral Superman" stories just don't do it for me, whether they use the actual character or a stand-in. They all feel clichéd, lazy, and unearned. But this video was so well done, even by your normal standards, that it made me pause throughout to read the written dialogue and really take the narrative in. I actually don't mind the spoiler-filled nature of this piece because it tells such a rich, compelling story. Without having actually read the original series, or this specific issue, I feel like I witnessed worlds of experiences at the true heart of the DCU. This was lovely closer to the surface in how it explained the importance of Clark and Bruce to each other; but where it really shines is with the spotlight it casts on Jonathan and Martha Kent and Alfred Pennyworth. I've long thought that they are the truest heroes of the DCU, and I stand by this rationale. Can we get a video on them? Please?? Everything all of us readers ever cared about in that reality was made possible because of their collective loving and nurturing natures. The Kents and Alfred deserve a standing ovation that lasts a decade -- the least they should get is a video! Thanks for making this one!
Reminds me of the one short from Superman Batman when Bruce and Clark realize that their fathers contact each other and they wanted Thomas to raise Clark but it never happened because of the waynes murders
I don't read comics not cause i think they're dumb just never was interested enough in them to look for them. But this, I like it. Very interesting comic moment, thank you.
This. This right here is why I love the Injustice universe. I've noticed that Injustice seems to have acquired quite a passionate hatedom. And I just can't see it. Maybe if I looked purely at the in-game story for the first game and nothing else, I could see it as just another evil Superman story with other characters going with him. But if you take Injustice as a whole, the prequel comics, Injustice 2, Injustice 2's _own_ prequel comics, there's a lot more to find here. There's a very strong emotional core, because past the surface you'll find that Injustice takes an angle to the "Evil Superman" concept that none of the other stories did: the shattered brotherhood of Bruce and Clark. That remains the central conflict throughout the whole story. And moments like these just take that and tug at the heartstrings for all they're worth. Maybe I'm biased, because so many of my favorite DC stories are the ones where Batman and Superman team up. Not even in the context of the Justice League; just the two of them. For basically the reasons outlined int his video. Injustice makes that the focal point. Best summed up with the exchange before their final battle in Injustice 2: "Do you remember the night you told me Lois was pregnant?" "You knew. Even before I said anything." "I miss the people we were then." "Me too." i dont care what anyone says I absolutely _love_ Injustice
It is great, it's incredible! Everyone will have their opinion and everyone has their "taste". I picked up on something that doesn't only apply to "Injustice",it rings true with any story. It could be a comic arc/event, Manga, short story, novel, light novel, and so on. Most people aren't reading , they've picked up an opinion from a TH-camr (that probably didn't read it), read a summary, or listened to the summary/play by play on TH-cam. I've got no problem with it, buying print media gets expensive and younger fans may have parents that do see the benefits. There is no other feeling like pulling it out of the plastic, admiring the artwork on the cover, the smell of a fresh printing, and peeling back the first page is like diving into the world. It's an experience and one of a kind feeling achievable only by reading a physical copy. The Writer, artist, inker, and colorist build this world around you- Suddenly you can hear the action! You can see and feel the motion! You're no longer hearing your inner voice reading, you hear the characters voices! All the tension and suspense feels real! The stakes are real, you've spent countless days/nights with the characters. You were there when he was torturing himself over his kids death; drinking, fighting and crying himself to sleep... And destroying his life and relationships... Now he's standing over the Ahole that set everything in motion, he's pulled himself outta hell, repaired his friendships, reclaimed his honor, it's all come down to this moment. You only get that when you read the comic. It's funny sometimes I remember some story arcs as movies or animation because that's what a good comic does
Really wish the make a Batman connection on Lois and Superman, like maybe one of the kids have a middle name of Bruce. Or a young Damien Wayne makes a visit to the farm. Maybe Lois get her medical from the breast cancer covered by the Wayne Foundation.
The line in this video he's a part of his community and whether he likes it or not is exemplary of Batman that is the thing that everyone who writes him nowadays gets wrong they want him to be alone they make him be alone by the most vicious means possible because they can't comprehend that he is stronger in a group. He's human his most powerful ability, the first fucking thing humans learn when we are born is to call for help
I know you're usually pretty DC-focused, but I would love to see what you have to say about GOTG vol. 3 and the TRAUMA it deals with. Loved this video just like all the rest!
Um just wondering what are the song titles for the music you use in your videos? Some of them are really good and I would love to listen to them! Anywho love the way you edit and make your videos ❤
i saw a comment on reddit describing injustice as how the characters fall into a shadow of their definitive trait superman falls into a shadow of his love for justice and batman falls into a shadow for his dedication to justice
Injustice 2 should have had multiple endings aside from the 2. Hell, they could've done reconciliation endings in the arcade version without changing the story.
I think that while Bruce had a good father, he is a horrible brother, a horrible friend, and a horrible father. Batman knew he made a mistake from the very start, and he took zero initiative in any of the steps to advert the tragedy that would befall everyone; and yet is still lauded as the 'good guy' for reasons that in the grand scheme of things don't make sense. The Joker was his responsibility, and instead of ending Joker himself in atonement, and more importantly so that he could spare who Superman was; he used it as a test of Superman's character instead. Then when Clark failed a test that no one who's heart had been ripped out could pass, Bruce chastised him and then abandoned him; pouring salt in the gaping mental and emotional wound. He never saw Clark Kent the man, he only saw Superman; and that's a testament to how horrible of a person both Bruce Wayne and Batman are. All he did was tell a grieving man to "get over it" and "grow up" while the body was still warm. Batman needed to take the bullet for Superman, but instead he pulled the trigger instead.
Hey, Pretentious, if you have time, could you start posting which issues of which comics you are getting these from. I can allow people to have an easier time finding and reading the comics for themselves.
Injustice Superman after being incarcelated: "You cannot imprison me!!! I AM THE ONLY HOPE OF THIS ROTTEN PLANET!!!" Batman: "Yeah, yeah, Smallville. Whatever you say..." *Throws the key away and leaves* Injustice Superman: "YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS, BRUCE. I SWEAR...What are you doing here, by the way?" Ozymandias: "Eh, my peace-making methods were a bit of radical according to some pc people..."

made me literally bawl my eyes out over my bacon and eggs man. great work!
that title has the same energy as 'i miss my wife tails. i miss her a lot. i'll be back'
That last line that Bruce says to Clark will probably be my most favorite piece of dialogue of all time
The dynamic duo needs to stay intact.
Oh okay, guess i'm crying now, thx.
You know, somewhere deep in my mind, I wished that Injustice would remain about Superman being so guilt-ridden he never stops going batcrap crazy.
Trauma? This is new topic for you, hope it becomes a great direction of conversation for the channel

All he did was tell a grieving man to "get over it" and "grow up" while the body was still warm. Batman needed to take the bullet for Superman, but instead he pulled the trigger instead.
I would really love if you talked a bit about John Constantine.
I thought the thumbnail was Darth Vader reminiscing about Padme, his wife he lost.
Can you imagine how confused I was to see GREEN ARROW.

Hey, Pretentious, if you have time, could you start posting which issues of which comics you are getting these from. I can allow people to have an easier time finding and reading the comics for themselves.
The position Lois outlines is not the same as the conservative stance on immigration. Completley different motives, lets not conflate now
Injustice Superman after being incarcelated: "You cannot imprison me!!! I AM THE ONLY HOPE OF THIS ROTTEN PLANET!!!"
Batman: "Yeah, yeah, Smallville. Whatever you say..." *Throws the key away and leaves*
Injustice Superman: "YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS, BRUCE. I SWEAR...What are you doing here, by the way?"
Ozymandias: "Eh, my peace-making methods were a bit of radical according to some pc people..."
