Comics Explained

[awwnuts]

Thanks for doing a remaster of the X-Men. Even after 25 years of reading comics, they're still my favorite comic book team of all time.

Rob, I have my own production company and I have done many documentary style productions, and I like to say I appreciate the professionalism and the seriousness in which you take your audience. Your channel is growing because you take pride in what you do and your "very consistent" with content. If you continue to do what your doing with same care and dedication you have always done. I see you as a stand out "You Tuber" at some point and you become the model in which others follow in putting out You Tube content of this nature. Always know your strengths don't try and do too many things, stay a specialist, and before you know it you will become an authority. I believe you are building something very special here, I hope you know that as well. Thanks

[MrHotSteph]

you should do a video about the "God loves, man kill" storyline

[Poisonivy]

Can you do a video on storm? She's like the best x men member and one of the most iconic.

Great explaination of the Xmen's history. Claremont is writing the treatment for the Gambit movie, yet, his attempts to get back into writing them again are so watered down & lackluster compared to what he used to write at the height of his tenure writing the X-men.

I considered myself to be well-versed in comics, especially x-men comics, but Rob I must thank you. You have enlighten me to the status of mutants. The reason they are feared so much is because mutant powers can range from something as simple as flying to something as devastating as forced spontaneous combustion of a living being(just a thought). They aren't limited to the circumstances that gave them their powers at all

Man, this old theme and intro is so nostalgic now, I love it.

[chrismccormick]

That was a great start to the video with that song man

[SunSchrody]

Great recap. :) The X-men are my favorite heroes in all comics. They have such an interesting evolution and the current Uncanny X-men comics are among the best in ongoing series imo, albeit a little slow. 

[MrGeo-EmitFodrol]

Apocalypse and Mr Sinister are two of my favorite characters in all of comics and media in general

[keithcamba]

No mention of Grant Morrisson's run? I thought you were ramping up to it. Marvel draft's one of DC's best writers to helm one of the most character driven runs. Morrisson explored deeply into the character's of Cyclops, Wolverine, Beast, Jean, Xavier, and he introduced some of the more colorful new students you still see today the Stepford Cuckoos, No-Girl, Ernst, Glob, Angel Salvatore (made it into First Class movie), and Quentin Quire who was played a pivotal role in the Schism event

[MyManwich]

You left out one thing that most people don't know about the X-Men franchise. The X-Men was intended to relate to the Civil Rights Movement making each of the major characters resembling some of the most inspirational and influential people in the Civil Rights Movement.

[SSJRanulf]

Your videos are just _Insane_ in their quality man. I mean, dear lord, from the quality of your voice and script, to your quality sources, to your ability to synthesize so much information in such a quality, informative way. Just fantastic, thank you for this!

[steve]

4:35 enter comrade Claremont 9:03 we switch to my favorite and thank you comrade rob

[antoniobrooks]

Dark Phoenix Saga, God Loves Man Kills, Mutant Massacre, Extinction Agenda, Age of Apocalypse, House of M, Messiah Complex, Messiah War and Decimation are some of the pinnacles of comic book story telling ever including Marvel and DC

[lowonlife]

Hi Rob, great video. I noticed an inaccuracy though: In the Giant-Size X-Men Second Genesis story, the original X-Men had not yet formed X-Factor. The new team are recruited by Xavier to rescue the original team from the living island Krakoa (this is actually Xavier's second attempt to create a new team, as shown later in Deadly Genesis). It wasn't until the real Jean Grey had returned, after the Dark Phoenix Saga, that the original X-men decided to regroup and create X-Factor.

[Michijere]

I love how professor X takes Storm away from providing life-giving water to her people. Lol. What a jerk.

[bradmills]

6 ads in a 20 min vid. This is getting rediculous.

[linojoelsap]

Thanks for making this video. I was collecting xmen comics up until Age of Apocalypse storyline. So, been wanting to get back into their story.

[marknutt]

I miss the old videos man that music ... them screen transitions glad to see you improve on every side but I miss this every now and then rob . Also I noticed you say SO. in the beginning of every video I love it.
