@@tylerlamb9930 If it's not going for a literature theme like Red Death maybe it should be something with some alliteration: How about the Scarlet Skull? Cardinal Cadaver? Carmine Corpse? Rose Remains? Cinnabar Skeleton? Maroon Mort? Vermilion Villain?
@Ahmed Mazer Ooohh, red queen is good, that also goes with a literature theme. Skullrincess isn't really a pun it's just kind of two words mashed together, in general I think "Princess of Nightmare" seems more like a subtitle than a name (think if her henchmen announced her as "Scarlet Skull, the Princess of Nightmare" at an event or negotiation or something). Actually we never learn her first name, it might actually be Scarlet. I mean, if we want more horror literature we could do Rose Madder, that's a Stephen King book, although that's a tad more obscure. I mean, I had asked my horror nerd friend and even he had to consult wikipedia to come up with that one.
"How long do we have till they regain consciousness?" Never ceases to amaze me how: A) People fuck up quotes on something they just watched and can literally replay as many times as they feel like and B) How the fucked up quote gets so many likes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
He legitimately broke Brock like he was a glow stick. The worst part is Brock can't do anything about it. If he acted out there, then he breaks Guild law and gets killed by whatever stuff they got, all while Red Death himself is a frighteningly tough match for him. So he's just sitting there with his pants down looking like a fool...in front of the entire Council.
There needs to be a spinoff. The design of the character is so strong and well-conceived it's just a tragedy he's only in a few episodes of one program.
I can see it.... A combination of a noir film voiced by the actor and a heartwarming family show making wild shifts in tone while keeping the best of both worlds. A good idea.
There is technically one out there, but the character is a lot different. The show was known as Frisky Dingo. It focuses on a white giant humanoid with a fat son and conquering the Earth while driving it into the Sun. Not exactly as complex or nuanced, but he's enjoyable. His name is Killface.
@@jayjay86443 Frisky Dingo was a great show! But Killface wasn’t quite like Red Death. It was just him and his son, and no wife. His son of course being as gay as a tangerine.
Tbh im pretty sure he killed most of his if not all his enemies by then. So 1 last loose end lol. This was the final arch before they settled as councilmen and women for the guild. So in a way adds another layer
Pretty sure that seeing the massacre of Movie Night is what started Red Death on his path of leaving corpses. Up in the air whether its from trauma or awe. Im betting on awe.
Oh no, he was always bloodthirsty. It's just that this mission was one of his first BIG ones. Not the same where his first arch drove under his skin to where he killed him, his family, and demolished his house. It's gotta be messup #3. First was killing his Arch, second was implicitly killing his first family because he failed to separate work/life, and third was Movie Night. Notice how young his wife and kid are. Clearly this wasn't his first time raising a family. As long as that piece of the past is buried and only with Monarch, he's fine.
@@bgill6623 He implies it when discussing his past with Monarch, but it isn't necessarily confirmed like other things. He claimed that it was a grave mistake to have the two (His work as a Villain, and his family and personal life,) so close together, and that he "made that mistake once, and that I won't make it again." Personally, my theory is that he didn't kill his first family, but rather he drove them away because he couldn't turn off his Villainous Persona. He probably let his lust for killing consume him and ended up scaring his first family away.
@@HerpDerpTheTank i agree red death is a cold blooded killer but he's not an animal. More likely than not he let his last family see his darkside far too much.
At first I thought Dr. Killinger refused The Monarch a seat at the guild b/c he disliked him or something but know I understand that Killinger knew that he wasn’t made for bureaucracies of the Guild of Calamitous Intent. Red Dead on the other hand is more then willing to put aside arching to support his family.
Not to mention Red Death murdered the very man he got into arching for. He only continued to Arch because the system allowed him to kill without consequences. I bet he was classified as a 10 the very moment he applied for arching rights and really narrowed down the level 10 protagonist list since then.
Clancy really gets to flex some of his vocal range in this role. The light, pleasant family man voice, the standard villain voice, and the pants-shittingly scary demon voice.
That's what I appreciated about his Lex Luthor as well. He had so many modes, the smooth-talking conman, the smug egotist, the growling thug. Very layered character.
Red Death is my favorite character. Clancy Brown was perfect in the role which isn't surprising given his performances as Lex Luthor and The Kurgen. Also he did the "special skills" bit better and more terrifying than Liam Neeson.
the fact that they canceled the show really saddens me red death is one of my favourite antagonists in all multy media not getting another season where i can see his charecter juggle the vilain life and the parent life juggle his allof, hardworking and kind personality, and his slaughter boner having classic 90s edge villain side ... it makes me sad to not get to witness this again
@@nope8996 AT&T did it to save money. Mike Lazzo quit his role, which means VB had no protection. Out of everything that man had ever done...this was one of his best decisions. Saving VB every time shit hit the fan. He really loved it! The new boss there doesn't share the same love.
no pe and in all fairness it wasn’t that big of a cliffhanger! I saw a few random clips of The Monarch and Dr Girlfriend/Mrs The Monarch before I actually went and binged the series and the first time I saw Dr Venture I thought Monarch was either his evil twin or evil clone. I was wrong of course but them being related really wasn’t that big of a shocker given how Blue Morpho’s story ended ... just damn man, _Jonas Venture was a shitty “friend”!_ 😤😤😤
I really like how he says he’s a fan of the Monarch. He is a professional, he has a body count when it comes to arches, but he still appreciates the classics and creativity of arching, no matter how small the villain and still shows respect.
Dude literally loves the Gentleman Villain archetype, the traintracks the big ticking timebomb. Monarch? Hed make the clock bigger than the bomb. Hed tie Rusty TO the clock.
Just realised something terrifying. If Red Death's kid looks like him that means 1 of 2 things: 1. Whatever caused Red Death's appearance to be what it is is genetic and hereditary. 2. He did whatever caused his appearance to change to his daughter and his wife was ok with it.
I'm definitely going to have to go with option one when we see red death with his daughter she's much brighter shade of red than he is almost like he's worn physically but when we see him in the 80s with his gang he's nearly the exact same shade of red as she is
Can we all just take a moment to love how the red death is a evil sadistic murderer, but at the same time he’s a loving husband and father who keeps his wife and child extremely happy that’s amazing
I think Red Death is the closest character in this show to being perfect. He's a professional super villain, yet he understands the game very well and he's a loving family man. Red Death has a good and healthy relationship with his wife and daughter. Both heroes and villains respect and fear him. Red Death actually has his life balanced and unlike other characters he has a healthy and happy life.
To put it simplely he is a Level 10 villian in the Guild (the highest rank) but is a legend that is respect by villians and the OSI. He also has a balanced work and home life better then any one with a family because he only archs one day a year.
That; and he is one of the few villains that has earn the right to monologue, why? he keeps it reasonably short, ties in your impending doom during said monologue and then leaves almost right after.
Can we just all take a minute and appreciate how he used the peril of something making a ticking noise against a man who is blind but can hear amazingly? He wouldn’t be able to hear a digital clock. Hence the train. The vibrations from the train and the sound being the way the guy sees would leave him unable to tell if the train was on this track or the other track. And this would be all the more perilous for him because of his superpower. The way the red death handled this was truly poetic.
I actually heard someone else point out that it was more the opposite, where it's more he knew how far the train was and which track it was on, hence able to hear the clock tick so to speak, knowing how much closer it is with his super sense he was bragging about before, either way he gets poetic across nicely
When Clancy Brown voices a villain he makes it an art. Though can't help but wonder does he have it in his contract or something that he has to do a character character that's red? Also Red Death is way too good of a character to just be on the show. He needs a comic. I don't care if it's DC, Marvel, or whatever , just get this man a comic. Maybe add in Professor Victor Von Helping/Hellfire as his protagonist. It be an interesting pairing. They'd have epic battles and then have a coffee later.
Yes to this!! Especially if they did a story about him taking down Professor Cadmium; maybe he even had a "lab assistant" hench that later introduces Red Death to his future wife Kate (this isn't my headcannon or anything lmao xD)
Unless a slim but hopeful chance for season 8 giving us a similar character. Red death is the closest to being a full fledge darkseid kind of villain. Immensely powerful, respected/feared both by protagonists & antagonists, a earned himself a place of great status and a voice with no need for a filter because it is awesome enough already.
Red Death and Dr. Doofenschmirtz are the two best villains ever devised in fiction. They are sufficiently evil while also being able to sustain a home life
Ohhhh !! Totally recognize his voice now: I’ve binged Carnivalé and podcasts about Carnivalé. And he was legit scary in Highlander when he took that hostage for a drive…
You Know this isnt too far off on how mob bosses and gang leaders act irl. A lot have the ability to switch their modes that easily. I guess that's just one of the perks of being able to control empathy
I just love how he can go from causal fun loving married man/dad to a villain who won't hesitate to kill your entire family,mail their decapitated heads at your work while hacking the cameras to see your utter shocked expression. Red Death is just awesome!
When I listen to Red Death talk about Lila and her rain boots, I can’t help being reminded of Hank and his Batman costume. It’s especially heartwarming for long-time fans.
2:48 Funny thing, despite how evil he is during work, he didn't litter. I think he finds little stuff like that petty and not becoming of a professional villain.
You ever wondered how Red Death met his wife? What kind of person she was or is? "Guy who looks like he was skinned alive? No lips, no hair, no eyelids? I want me some of that" I mean huge props to her for looking past his looks but...How? Truly, behind every level 10 villain there's a level 10 wife.
"...And here we go, with the killing and the screaming and blood spilling and a nice LADYYY!" "Honey, maybe you shouldn't talk about work when our daughter brings her new friend Jason around?" *Canned laughter* "Well, I just think it would interest him to know what I do for work. You know. In case he wants to get serious with our raggamuffin?" "DAD!" "Mister Death, sir? I think I'm just gonna go" *Canned laughter* "Why so soon? Dont you wanna try the brownies? They're to die for." *Canned laughter*
I mean, if arching is more of an art, just don't do anything to actually piss him off and you should be fine. Obviously nobody wants him as an arch, but it also creates a bit of pride; he's the best of the best. Being seen as his equal is an honor, in a way.
You know, it's REALLY telling that for Red Death's "Final Arch", while everyone else had someone from their past or their longest running foe to face, Red Death had some guy that rubbed him the wrong way maybe a few days ago. Why's that? Because he killed every other Arch and foe he had ever had to the point the only one left was someone he just met. And seeing what he did to Blind Rage, it's not hard to see why.
I love that this world allows this man to be such a wholesome father and husband who has no secrets from his family, while still pursing his passions on a professional level.
This is the ideal. When your in character your a force of nature, when your on the job your a professional and when your at home, you do your damndest to make it work. But always have class.
I love how he's probably one of the most genuinely evil characters and the most wholesome character at the same time. This guy is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters
3:06 I can watch this clip all day on loop. Red death knocking out that loud mouth peacocking Chad, dude, bro was the best thing ever. Literally everything I wanna see from television.
"Show time!" "You want some brownies in there, too, cuddles?" "Brownies? Yes, thank you." That part is what I love about adult-focused animated stuff; you can bounce between serious action and death and all that and then to wholesome sweet moments in the blink of an eye way more naturally than you ever could in a live action setting, almost no matter how good the actors are. Also, I agree, brownies are the SHIT, no matter how much you're ready to go and kill a mf, there's always time for brownies.
I love how Clancy Brown cycle thru his full vocal range for Red Death; goes from dotting father to heavy bad guy to full-on sociopath super villain… and back again. He doesn’t get the full respect that he really deserves.
@7:46 "Mister Fahrenheit, super sonic man" Eric (doc hammer) cant help himself, he has to fit in as many music references as he can into every episode.
Honestly I think Red Death is the BEST at being a villain. He’s intimidating, he’s terrifying, he’s precise, he knows his history, he’s got his entire aesthetic locked IN. He’s so professional it’s AWESOME.
8:45 a nice little easter egg for all who missed it! the back of the magazine laugh riot is holding is advertising a 1987 Nissan STANZA, The same car #24 picked up #21 in and saw throughout the show!
He wasn't around long but he was one of my FAVORITE characters in the whole show. Goodbye mighty Red Death, you and all of Venture Bros were taken before your time...
Clancey Brown is one of those actors that I will cry when we finally lose them. He is the voice of many a memorable villain and Henchman and Red Death is just a culmination of all of that insanity, dread and pure evil.
You may find it funny But imagine a guy with a reputation so terrifying he can silence a room full of dangerous super villains by crushing a fucking paper cup.

Red death: You know, I'm not sure, but that would be a neat trick.
Clancy Brown, hell of a VA. Conveys so much in his roles with just subtle changes of tone.
Ohhhh !! Totally recognize his voice now: I’ve binged Carnivalé and podcasts about Carnivalé. And he was legit scary in Highlander when he took that hostage for a drive…
One of the best character in venture brothers also add points for Clancy Brown awesome acting
the speech at the train track really gave me chills
Red Death didn't make evil an art form, but he made sure EVERYONE understood the art.
He manages to be not only terrifying, but justify the ridiculousness.
The fact Red’s Skull’s parody is actually somehow wholesome is hilarious
You Know this isnt too far off on how mob bosses and gang leaders act irl. A lot have the ability to switch their modes that easily. I guess that's just one of the perks of being able to control empathy
If empathy is controlled, is it really empathy?
1:48 she IS wearing rain boots inside. Details are spot on
I just love how he can go from causal fun loving married man/dad to a villain who won't hesitate to kill your entire family,mail their decapitated heads at your work while hacking the cameras to see your utter shocked expression. Red Death is just awesome!
It is difficult to make a Super Villain so scary and yet so wholesome at the same time--but this guy is living proof that it can be possible XD
When I listen to Red Death talk about Lila and her rain boots, I can’t help being reminded of Hank and his Batman costume. It’s especially heartwarming for long-time fans.
I took his advice of separating work/life balance to heart. Words to live by.
Same , all separate, and balanced as all things should be
2:48 Funny thing, despite how evil he is during work, he didn't litter. I think he finds little stuff like that petty and not becoming of a professional villain.
You ever wondered how Red Death met his wife? What kind of person she was or is?
"Guy who looks like he was skinned alive? No lips, no hair, no eyelids? I want me some of that"
I mean huge props to her for looking past his looks but...How?
Truly, behind every level 10 villain there's a level 10 wife.
I totally want a Cosby Show style spinoff about Red Death.
"...And here we go, with the killing and the screaming and blood spilling and a nice LADYYY!"
"Honey, maybe you shouldn't talk about work when our daughter brings her new friend Jason around?"
*Canned laughter*
"Well, I just think it would interest him to know what I do for work. You know. In case he wants to get serious with our raggamuffin?"
"DAD!"
"Mister Death, sir? I think I'm just gonna go"
*Canned laughter*
"Why so soon? Dont you wanna try the brownies? They're to die for."
*Canned laughter*
@@DashingSteel Yes, exactly.
She instantly knew what kind of man he was on the inside.
*_Two drums and a cymbal fall off a cliff._*
Looks don't matter so much as charm and passion. And Red Death is charming and passionate.
The villain you're afraid to arch you but at the same time, a guy you would love to have a beer with.
I mean, if arching is more of an art, just don't do anything to actually piss him off and you should be fine.
Obviously nobody wants him as an arch, but it also creates a bit of pride; he's the best of the best. Being seen as his equal is an honor, in a way.
I can bet that red skull is jealous of him.
Red skill was really a cosplayer all along.
1:20 I know it’s played for laughs, but come on. Who doesn’t love brownies?
I mean…yeah! 😋
Clancy Brown going between incredibly wholesome family man to terrifying madman is such an excellent thing and such a great choice for VA work.
You know, it's REALLY telling that for Red Death's "Final Arch", while everyone else had someone from their past or their longest running foe to face, Red Death had some guy that rubbed him the wrong way maybe a few days ago. Why's that? Because he killed every other Arch and foe he had ever had to the point the only one left was someone he just met. And seeing what he did to Blind Rage, it's not hard to see why.
I love that this world allows this man to be such a wholesome father and husband who has no secrets from his family, while still pursing his passions on a professional level.
I feel like even if the characters are terrified of him, they're all sort of rooting for him too. He's the best of them
1 part wholesome and 3 parts terrifying.
God I love this guy, he's just the perfect villain; loves his job, but keeps it away from his family life.
This is the ideal. When your in character your a force of nature, when your on the job your a professional and when your at home, you do your damndest to make it work.
But always have class.
I love how he's probably one of the most genuinely evil characters and the most wholesome character at the same time. This guy is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters
Clown in a Space Station? and they expected things to go right?
1:22 “Yes! Thank you!” That was so genuine. I loved it.
He's great dad and husband
Hey tha stanza!
When Red Death dives into monologues, it reminds me of the scene in the movie Shark when Captain Quint talks about the wreck of the USS Indianapolis
It's intentional. The entire episode that monologue comes from is a Jaws reference.
Just imagine him laugh like a pirate
Red death's "uhmmmm" after being asked how long the ppl would be unconscious will always crack me up.
3:06 I can watch this clip all day on loop. Red death knocking out that loud mouth peacocking Chad, dude, bro was the best thing ever. Literally everything I wanna see from television.
Clancy Brown goes from terrifying to wholesome in a second!
"Show time!"
"You want some brownies in there, too, cuddles?"
"Brownies? Yes, thank you."
That part is what I love about adult-focused animated stuff; you can bounce between serious action and death and all that and then to wholesome sweet moments in the blink of an eye way more naturally than you ever could in a live action setting, almost no matter how good the actors are.
Also, I agree, brownies are the SHIT, no matter how much you're ready to go and kill a mf, there's always time for brownies.
RD "I very much like to kill"
Dr GF "We get to break in an oversized dummy corp."
RD "And kill"
Feels like both Red Death and Mr. Krabs have something in common. They’re both red and both voiced by the same voice actor.
and Damien Darkblood
from invincible
I love how Clancy Brown cycle thru his full vocal range for Red Death; goes from dotting father to heavy bad guy to full-on sociopath super villain… and back again.
He doesn’t get the full respect that he really deserves.
Red Death is one of the few characters who i can safely say is absolutely amazing every time he's on screen.
3:13 I love he can just turn that off.
@7:46 "Mister Fahrenheit, super sonic man" Eric (doc hammer) cant help himself, he has to fit in as many music references as he can into every episode.
The fact that Red death threw that trash on the garbage can. The guy knows not to litter, yet will not hesitate to throw down.
Love how when they were doing their super mashups they went: "hey what if we combined Red Skull with Vision?"
8:23 Carful Red Death, your Gorrath is showing.
9:52 That burn was so hot, the earth’s core froze solid
"How long do we have until they regain consciousness?"
"Um."
Well, he's not called "Red Knockout".
Honestly I think Red Death is the BEST at being a villain. He’s intimidating, he’s terrifying, he’s precise, he knows his history, he’s got his entire aesthetic locked IN.
He’s so professional it’s AWESOME.
Ahhhhh ahahah HE IS GONNA LIAM NEESON OUR ASSES!
"We have to let them go!"
"We don't _have_ them; we _can't_ let them go!"
Its an absolute travesty that this show was cancled.
Doesn't it have a movie coming out?
I know right. Even Elizabeth complained lol
Imagine if you were so menacing and respected that you could get the attention of an entire room by crushing a styrofoam cup
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHH-oh...hi!"
My God, Clancy Brown was brilliant in this role.
That Dummy Corp. neo-deco area rug was impeccable...
I have to believe with every fiber of my being after seeing the diner flashback that red death is the Kurgan
8:45 a nice little easter egg for all who missed it! the back of the magazine laugh riot is holding is advertising a 1987 Nissan STANZA, The same car #24 picked up #21 in and saw throughout the show!
4:25 oh THAT’S where that quote came from
God red death is one of the best villains i can think of. So calculated and calm. Just an awesome character.
Red Death is what happens when Krabs did an OD on DMT
The definition of a true gentleman villain terrifying, charismatic, and a surprisingly great family man
My favorite
Red Death deserves his own 7 season series. He only appears in 5 episodes! Thats bullshit! The best characters never get enough screen time…
The fact that a fiction, psychopathic villain has a better relationship with his family than most real life people.
He wasn't around long but he was one of my FAVORITE characters in the whole show. Goodbye mighty Red Death, you and all of Venture Bros were taken before your time...
Clancy Brown is the G.O.A.T. at everything.
hold the F up! at 8:55 that Freddie Effin Mercury chillin with Red Death!
Red Death reminds me of the mask
Comic book Mask, yeah.
The insanity and sanity of Deadpool + the experience of Deathstroke and a dash of the mask.
Red skull
Red Death needs a spin off on Netflix !
He truly is a gift
He's a terrifying man (I'm not talking about his face) but he's also a great family man
Clancey Brown is one of those actors that I will cry when we finally lose them. He is the voice of many a memorable villain and Henchman and Red Death is just a culmination of all of that insanity, dread and pure evil.
I like how his eyes turn yellow when he gets pissed
You may find it funny
But imagine a guy with a reputation so terrifying he can silence a room full of dangerous super villains by crushing a fucking paper cup.
This is the same room, mind you, that has Phantom Limb. A man with an ego the size of the Sun.
He subtly acknowledges that Red Death has him beat.
Hell yea you came through my boi thanx
