#AmalgamUniverse #DC - Розваги
They should have combined Lobo and Ghost Rider. The new incarnation could be called . . . LoRider . . . :)
IcyHaze02 that would be super awsome
2nd series Lobo the duck!! Combining spirit of vengeance w wally west flash!
Instead we got Lobo the Duck, which is the best thing to be put in a comic since
IcyHaze02 lel
They also should've done daredevil and batman
Lets give Batman a healing factor, super strength, and claws.
chris o oneal sounds like a solid idea to me
chris o oneal agreed, lets do it!
So all the villains are in hiding?
He's already unstoppable dammit
@necromancer
Ah yes
Now we know the real origin of barbatos
Jason todd and bucky barnes.
Redsoldier
Or the winter hood
Jason Barnes
@@christianhatcher833 I like that
Nice
Winter Red (Like Winter Green, Deathstroke)
Am I the only one that wants the Amalgam universe to return? I think it would be pretty awesome.
Collin Gabriel it'd be so successful or even a crossover
John Smith Imagine Injustice 3 being based around it XD like Dr. STRANGEFATE teams up with Dictator Superman
Especially with newer designs on the characters. In theory its pretty cool but some of the designs are pretty dumb lol
I'd love to write a few titles if possible, one character I loved and wanted to see more of and a great look w/ a backstory that fits is Moonwing (Nightwing/Moo Knight)
I wouldn't mind seeing this concept done again, only this time with all new all different amalgam characters from the first one. Not to give a controversial opinion, but out of all the original amalgam universe characters, I kinda thought only three of them were actually really good. All the other ones either didn't make a lick of sense or were just super redundant.
I want another DC and Marvel Crossover and it's just the Avengers team up with The Justice League and they fight a Villain Alliance, or some super powerful villain made just for the event
Throw mortal Kombat in too
@@ItsChengy1509 YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS🤯😳
@@ItsChengy1509 I can already Imagine what it would be like😭 sometimes having a vivid imagination is a curse man
Yes! I want to see the Avengers with the Justice League.
Trueeeee , its way better and less toxic than Marvel vs DC
They should do an animated movie series based of this universe. A four part movie to kick it off starting with DC vs Marvel #1. And what would make this animated series great would be if you got ALL the movie and TV actors from both Marvel and DC to do the voices (unlikely but come on you have to admit that would be sweet.)
Yes
Remember that time when carnage meet the joker! I would love to see a video about that.
he mentioned in carnage most evil moments
Dr Doomsday was 100% made strictly for the name
Agree. But... It works. And I'll say it. If this universe gets revived, they're DOOMED! 🤭
Nothing wrong with that. This Doctor Doom/Doomsday fusion/amalgamation could become somebody way more interesting than the the two characters alone.
I think it would make more sense to merge Doctor Doom with Lex Luthor and Doomsday with Carnage.
I know, especially considering they don't have anything in common other than the name
@@legoking6165 doomsday and hulk
Thumbs up if you want to see the Amalgam Universe brought back.
MLPFiMBrony2232 I'm guessing Marvel and DC are too busy making there cinematic universes
MLPFiMBrony2232 This was prior to DC and Marvel being owner by Time Warner and Disney if I recall.
Those big corporations are unlikely to team up
Polverine74 no marvel is salty of dc
Nerds of the Lost Cinema there are just too busy for competition they don't have the time and Marvel is making so much money they probably don't care
HELL NO it was terrible
The Flash should be combined with Quicksilver. Quickflash. No one can ever touch him.
Quicksilver and a variety of Brotherhood of Evil mutants were merged with the Metal Men from DC and Magneto was merged with William Magnus, the creator of the Metal Men. This combination funnily enough made Magneto and the Brotherhood mutants into good guys in this universe because Magneto was just trying to protect mutant kind where as his brother was trying to kill them. His brother killed his team of mutants and Magneto ended up making robot versions of them to continue the fight but didn't expect them to actually gain sentience. Its an odd but kind of cool mixture.
A speedster and a speedster, how dull.
@@MysteriousTomJenkins Magneto and the Magnetic Men. They changed the metals to ones that are affected by Electromagnetic forces like Iron, Nickel and Cobalt
Silverash
Or Silverflash
Dude, Bruce Wanye Agent of Shield.
Thanos-Side? Who's the genius writer who came up with that?
SirGeeeO what about Captain Marvel, even less creative
Gaming Comics well how else do u combine captain marvel and captain marvel?
now i'm curious too
DSW captain Shazam
Gaming Comics but his name was captain marvel at the time so it just made more sense
I'd personally like to see a Moon Knight and Azrael (Michael Lane) amalgamation.
I didn't actually read up on Lane's run, but wouldn't Jean Paul Valley make more sense; given the dudes ancient knight heritage?
Actually Marc Spector and Michael Lane are more similar in that they are both former members of the Marine Corps (both having served two tours of duty), both took up law enforcement jobs after (Marc Spector joined the CIA and Michael Lane joined the GCPD), both lost people close to them (Marc Spector's girlfriend was killed by his brother Randall and Michael Lane lost almost everyone in his life), both turned to a religious calling after facing great adversity (Marc Spector turned to Khonshu after failing to defeat Bushman and seemingly dying in front of the statue Khonshu and Michael Lane turned to the Order of Purity after his involvement in the supposed death of Batman), both have at least once used ancient artifacts (Marc Spector used the Golden Ankh crafted by a time-displaced Hawkeye and Michael Lane uses both the Sword of Sin and the Sword of Salvation as well as the Suit of Sorrows), both have mental disorders (Marc Spector has dissociative identity disorder and Michael Lane has insanity) and both are seemingly superhuman under certain conditions (Marc Spector's speed, strength, reflexes and stamina are linked to the phases of the moon and Michael Lane's Suit of Sorrows gives him enhanced durability, speed, stamina, and strength).
In addition to the Moon Knight and Azrael amalgamation I'd also really like to see a Red Hood and Winter Soldier amalgamation.
there’s already one with Moon Knight and that with Nightwing making Moonwing although if I came up with a name for yours it would be Moonrael
I still have almalgam cards from the 90s era. I remember being blown away when I first heard of heroes coming together as one. They should reboot Marvel vs DC again that would be awesome.
Is it possible to see it
I wish DarkClaw and Spiderboy had more comics.
Especialy spider boy
I would love to see more Amalgam stories come out
Spider-man's amalgam should be nightwing
INfinite Spid3r yah we I just want my favorite characters combined
I've never heard of moon wing
The reason it was Spider-Boy, Superboy and Spider-Man because they were both clones at the time.
ESMERALDA JIMENEZ VELASQU if spider-man had the speed of the flash he would be untouchable
Dustin Gibbons Ben Reilly or Kaine?
This was pretty dope. I forgot about most of this. I think it's corny how fans try to pick sides today. I say all the time. It's ok to like marvel and DC both.
Lobo the Duck!!!!!
Long live the main duck
Jade Nova, Dare the Terminator, Skulk, Aqua-Mariner, Wraith, Moonwing, Thanosied, Kid Demon, Speed Demon, Lobo the Duck, Doctor Doomsday, Galatiac, Deaddevil, Iron Lantern, and Thorin
Now imagine if this series became a movie or movies if you will.
Everyone knows that if you mix Superman with Captain America, you get Major Glory (from Dexter's Lab)
Actually, you'd get All Might from My hero academia. With heat vision, freeze breath and an unbreakable shield.
We so need a Marvel V. DC COMICS ANIMATED MOVIE
Yeah 😉
Batman's amaglam being Daredevil? Or Maybe Shang Qi with Karate Kid and Iron Fist? I'd read that
LingoLand having batman actually be blind like a bat would be awesome
Moon Knight is constantly referred to as a Batman ripoff. Maybe a white Batman with multiple personalites.
DSW bats aren't blind though...
Albert Grant you get what I mean tho...
DSW yes I guess bat-man more bat-like
Wait, Doctor Strange Fate is a combination of Foctor Strange, Doctor Fate *AND* Professor X? Why no name of Professor X then? Wouldn't have been better if he was called "Professor Strange Fate"?
Dark Claw and Doctor Strangefate were my favourites. The rest were meh to me.
The Paranormalist dark claw is awesome in the coolest amalgam Universe character in my opinion but the most awesomest and most amazing one in my opinion is Iron Lantern I'm sorry and why are you not liking Iron Lantern like please tell me why! PLEASE!!?!???
The Paranormalist Iron Lantern cool and underutilized idea
I liked Iron Lantern.
I love this series and I remember buying it. Thank you for sharing !
This was fantastic. Great job on this awesome video.
Maybe the brothers are the one above all and the presence
true
@@andreaslois3074 di..did you just reply to your self
@@justmazen3168 A guy deleted his comment
No
I would’ve combined Wonder Woman and Thor. She could have been called “Thunder Woman”.
One of the best things about Amalgam was all the little details and commentary through all the issues that made it seem like the books were all we had since the Golden Age.
Also, the second run's Giant-Size Bat Thing.
I was absolutely spellbound by Amalgam when I was younger. It was the coolest thing ever.
They should've combined the One Above All and The Presence
It will be called the presence above all
why haven't i heard of this masterpiece?
Thank You for showing some appreciation for the Amalgam Universe, and I can't wait for more videos about it.
Yes I'm so excited! I have waited forever for this video!!!!! 😍
Meanwhile Deadpool and Green Lantern watching each other
*We're the same*
Do a history of teen titans
Hair Cjuvs That's a good idea.
and young justice
No
Just no
Thanks for doing a video on amalgam comics I absolutely loved this as a kid and still do to this day.
Great channel and videos I also like the fact my hair is thinning as much as yours relatable
They should have called it, MC or MarC
Nah
Marvel Detectives
D-vel Comics...Devil COmics, I dunno.
or MC/DC
MDC?
Detective Marvel
2:50 alright boys let's go to comment war!!!!
crippling depression is here I'm surprised that didn't trigger more people
crippling depression is here my opinion is superior
Jacob Johnson lie!!!!!
Jacob Johnson nah brah I'm opinion is clearly the most superior because reasons
crippling depression is here nah, if u want a comment war just try talking about dr. Strange vs. dr fate, I've been there and don't want to go through it again
I don't normally comment but love the channel
Great addition to the show with amalgam
Keep up the good work yall
One of my favorites when I was a kid.
I've never been early for a video
0:40 wait dr fate , doctor strange and proffesor x together.
Dr. Strange fate more like dr. X op ?
Way to powerfull
גיל ברלב
I always thought it should have been Prof. Strange Fate but I guess they wanted to keep the Prof X identity a secret until later in the story
Charles Xavier w helm of nabu cloak of levitation w combo of eye of Horus/Agamoto. But as I said elsewhere battling Thanoseid whom else?
Ikrגיל ברלב
Like he said, the reason the pocket dimension was made is because dr. Strangefate needed to be kept under control,
AWESOME VIDEO! This is one of those things in Comics that are very surprising and very cool.
Why is professor X in 2 characters
Spasticat because comics
Thor Odinson Bruce wanye and Nick fury also became 1
Spasticat they did that for several characters
A few got combinations of three characters, for example Ghost Rider, The Flash and Eragon were amalgamated.
manhunter and him were feeling self-conscious about being bald so the universe teamed them up to feel better
Hey Arris, could you please do more X men themed epidodes, that team is probably the coolest but it never gets any love😓
NerdOverlord ikr if you love x men subscribe to me
"Never gets any love"....
NerdOverlord The X-men needs to be respected.
NerdOverlord and they need be in the new MVC
I mean if you look at Variant Videos, there are a few Wolverine, a few deadpool ones, and like 2 actual x men episodes. Also when people bring up marvel or dc. They only talk about like iron man, cap, hulk, Thor etc for marvel but try never include the x men, even though they debatably have better characters and stories...
So glad you did this
Awesome! Can't wait for the individual-focused Amalgam character videos
Should've been Batman and Ironman, amalgam name... Iron Bat, basically iron man but looks like batman, the helmet could have ears and the eyes would b white. The arc reactor would b a white glowing bat. The armour would b a metallic grey and black, mostly grey but like batman the suit would have black boots and maybe gauntlets which could have the spikes, and the suit would still retain the arc reactors in his hands and feet. Also this makes sense as they are both the 'rich kids' of Marvel and DC...
EDIT/ADD ON: so iron bat has been done before, and damn does it look cool...
4:00 tell that to Stan Lee 😏
Awesome video!!
My favorite Amalgam comics were the JLX series. I liked the younger members of the group (Apollo, Firebird, Mercury, Wraith, Runaway, and Nightcreeper) and wished there were more appearances from those guys.
Amalgam in the middle.
Sub A Yes, No, Maybe...
I don't know...
Can you repeat that question?
bizarnage!
Bazinga
I had most of these when they came out, super great.
I'm glad this has finally happened. I asked a couple times recently and I'm glad that this video is the result of that.
Btw is the speedfroce exist in the amalgam universe?
Probably
ישראלי
באמת
עומרי דמרי מדר
וואו חשבתי שאני היחיד כאן.
חחח
עומרי דמרי מדר what the fuck...
Maybe Spiderman should fuse with Flash or Batman
Easily flash
yesss please do the amalgam series!!!
Dude ! I collected all these cards back in Torrance, Ca.. A underground, hole in the wall , comic shop called Magoos, not one of my friends ever heard of these, but you’re the best, hands down.
You should do a history of nightwing
TheRadcool yes thanks
I feel like there should have been batman Ironman instead of batman wolverine
Isaac yesh
Exactly, especially considering that conceptually, they are basically the same character who happen to be in different universes.
I feel like the only reason they choose to blend Bats and Wolvie together is because the X-men were way more popular than the Avengers at the time. If the amalgam universe had been done today instead of 1996, I have a good feeling it would be a different story.
nah, Wolverine is much cooler
I LOVED the Amalgam Comics mashups! That's why I love Marvel Warps. Speaking of which, could you make an video on The Warp universe
I can't wait for that series
Batman + black panther
BatPanther?
Or BlackMan?
Panman???
@@IcyProxy really funny name. "I am BlackMan" lol
Blackman??
Sorry.
Do a history of Harvey Bullock.
GCPD! NOBODY MOVE! ESPECIALLY YOU TWO!
ShadowStorm 2.0 Which one is you two.
Anthony Rios it's from gotham
ShadowStorm 2.0 Oh.
These videos are gold!!!!
I imagine that if they would do a live action interpretation of the amalgam universe in the MCM/DCEM then the characters would be combinations of characters certain actors portrayed like we would have Bruce Murdock who got blind as a bat by chemicals after running away from the alley his parents were murdered in and he decides to become batdevil since Ben Affleck portrayed both Batman in the DCEU and Daredevil in the Mark Johnson movie and other examples for live action amalgam characters would be Lanternpool for Ryan Reynolds, Banom for Tom Hardy, Jim Jonah Jameson for J.K Simmons and Morbius the living joke for Jared Leto but things like these would only work if the actor portrayed a hero in both Marvel and DC and vice versa so we won’t get amalgams like Norman Vulko, Catwasp, Kilowils (not that we’d get him anyways since the actor’s dead) or Brian Udonta
Some of these character combos are redundant. Namoir+Aquaman and Deadshot+Bullseye. You get nothing new from these combinations.
They amalgamate characters that are similar, also, the fans would riot if it was something new. Have you seen fan reactions to ANAD marvel?
Joe Higashi And then you fun ones like Darkclaw, and Iron Lantern
They did some obvious amalgamations but ones that were totally nuts, like Lobo the Duck and Bruce Wayne: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D
The obvious ones are to make fun on how Marvel and DC copied each other by creating similar characters.
That's why you never want to combine characters just because their abilities are similar. You should combine them based on similar origins, personalities and character types.
My version:
Hulk + Solomon grundy + Damage + Doomsday : The Behemoth
Wolverine + Bloodshot + Deathstroke: Blood Wolf
Captain America + Superman + Commander Steel : American Steel
Batman + Iron man : Iron knight
Ghost Rider + etrigen: Demon Rider
Daredevil + night wing: DareNight
Sabretooth + bronze tiger : Bronze Claw
Luke cage + black lighting: Lighting Proof
Task Master + Deathstroke : Master Stroke
Spider man + Flash : Speed Web
Lobo + rocket racoon : Rocklo
Batman+Iron Man is lame
I wish that the companies could come together once again and give us some action figures from that universe.
Incroyable vidéo et superbe chaîne 👏
do history of vixen
history of lobo
we're gonna get movies and tv shows involving the amalgam universe sooner than people think💯
Yay! It's about time you've talked about the Amalgam Universe!
How come professor X gets amalgamated into two different characters? I'm calling bullshit
SpeedDemon is made of three characters too. A few were mixed. Maybe because they don't have an obvious counterpart?
Guy Flies Guy Flies Guy Flies no not with two other characters, but he has two different amalgam characters. He has one character with doctor strange and doctor fate, and another with Martian man hunter. Do you see what I'm saying? (Doctor StrangeFate and Mr. X)
Because Comics
NextGeneration // _NGNick_ pretty much
TheRojam12 Spasticat because they Martian man hunter had no one else and had an x on him so yah, and they needed dr. Strange fate since he's the combo of the most powerful heroes from x-men, marvel, and dc
Need to make a movie
Nightcreeper was always my favorite. Good video 👍🏻
Aye I own all of these! The Amalgam universe, the DC vs Marvel stories, the Access stories and the second part of the Access stories. It's pretty cool to have it in the collection. Wish they would do this again
wish there could have been an Anime-tion universe I want to see kal-karrot(goku and superman), batman and naruto, Genos and cyborg, wonder woman and android 18, vegeta and wolverine, piccolo and martian manhunter and many more.
One Punch Man and Alfred
vegito 1million Batman and Naruto? More like Robin and Naruto. Batman would be better with Kakashi or Minato
vegito 1million Goku and Superman together would crash the universe.
Sorry i wasn't around my wifi was shut down can you make a alternative versions of the Fantastic four episode?
Where are those individual character episodes at? Also, they should do this again, with different mashups reflecting the characters that are popular right now. Would be too much fun.
Right could you imagine an iron bat or scarlette woman? Or super thor
yes... been wanting this for YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry dude storm would win against Wonder Woman the problem for Diana is she needs to get close enough to be able to do something well storm can keep her at bay and can throw in an end of the world type weather at her.
DeltaPrime350 wonderwoman is very fast actually
Bram Gyllenwood storm is a god , it is as if WW started a battle against hestia. She get shit on , stormul7 powers have not have revealed
@@preke953 storm is NOT a god, she is just a mutant
I must ask. I can never get all villains on this t-shirt.
V - Joker
A - Venom
R - Loki
I - Doctor Doom
A - ???????
N - Deathstroke
T - Catwoman
egon244 reverse flash
Amazo
Catwoman isn't a villain she's an anti-hero
Harley Quinn
You get the best of both worlds with a super splash of 90's.
I remember buying these and waiting for the new issues. They were awesome
It should be Wonder Woman and miss marvel
But storm COULD beat WW......
NerdOverlord nah
NerdOverlord With what? Lightning?
Aaaah! Flame war! There's so many variations of both characters, whose powers constantly fluctuate to suit their villain, that many combinations of the two heroes could have different outcomes. Storm wielding mjolnir for example would be tough to beat.
No, no she couldn't
Shrish Vellore yes yes she can
Please do all the character mentions and their origins for the amalgam universe
Yo love all your videos! I have a request though? Wondering if you have enough intel on swamp thing to do "history of" or "one shot" . I loved to see your take on him. Thanks!
I forgot about so many of those guys, haha. Can't wait for those amalgam episodes
I've been collecting these books since I was 10. the thing in my country is nobody pretty much cared for it so i got the comic books for around a dollar each .great to hear people are still talking about it
History of poison ivy , quake , the hellfire club and the blue lantern core !
Heck yeah! This was awesome. I would love to see a video on Lobo the Duck, Bruce Wayne Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Dial H.U.S.K.
Please do a history and reading recommendations for the Silver Surfer
