#InfiniteFrontier #WonderWoman #DCComics
This was a well illustrated issue with great panels inside..It gave me that first rebirth issue kind of vibe
@@vihaanjefferson3338 thats so wrong such a violation of privacy why would you do that?
we're going back to the early 2000's with some of this and I couldn't be happier:
- Wally's the flash again
- Cass and Steph are the batgirls while babs is oracle (usually)
- Roy is back and ditched the ugly trucker hat
hopefully DC continues in this direction because infinite frontier is looking to be great
I loved the direction they were going with the end of Rebirth but they changed it. We'll see if they stick with this one
that was probably my favourite era of dc comics
I like late 90s and early 00s except DC comics....I don't like all of those...I prefer Barry,barbara as batgirl etc
@@MrInconvenient wil they go continue rebirth and go back to it
@@MrInconvenient now that source wall are the promethean giants that were trapped and were on the source wall are they now free and what happened to the source
Arris: “This is a giant issue, so I won’t be breaking down every storyline in great detail.”
Also Arris: *takes 16274826285 minutes to roast Black Adam’s new name*
I'm so happy we get a follow up to Joker War and now we get to see Scarecrow as the main villain, who besides Joker is probably my favourite Batman villain. Wally is the main Flash again and Roy is back, I'm so happy Infinite Frontier is here, I'm locked in and ready to go
did "Joker War' take place before or after "Death Metal"? What about "Three Jokers" when Alfred was alive or had been brought back from the death?
:( damn I could have purchased the story. Tynions 3rd volume correct? I got Final Crisis instead because I havent read the first 2 volumes and love reading my main series in correct order. Have you read all of Tynions run on bats?
This comment did not age well whoops..seems like everyone is tired of the Batman Future State storyline now
@@silentvideojournals1035I feel like they they should spell it like Shaz-Adam
My boy Darkseid once again does in the most powerful beings in the DC universe like its a video game.
My meta-theory is that they will defeat this ultimate Darkseid, who is the literal concept of evil, thusly removing evil from existence and it will become a soft of utopia, removing all continuity and turning all books into Elseworlds + set before this "end of evil"
They can't do that, good vs evil, chaos vs order, these concepts create stories. Remove one aspect and they'd have no story to tell.
@@bakedgoods7116 That's what I mean. They have the ultimate victory and then everything can be set in the past, anywhere between the different crises as they are all canon and it all matters. The heroes actually, completely, ultimately defeat evil so there is a final cap to the DCU.
@@Ben10man2 It'll only end if they get bankrupt and shutdown, in the comic universe, no matter how many recons and reboots you make, the one true God isn't the Presence or the One Above All, the true God is the Status Quo. Heroes beat Villains, Villains scheme another plan, only to be foiled again. Rinse. Repeat. This is the one thing that keeps Comic Books alive, or any long term franchise. The moment you remove it, you kill the Franchise.
@@bakedgoods7116 I'm not disagreeing with that premise. I'm not saying it's a good thing. I'm implying with the direction AT&T has been taking with DC overall, with less and less books and more adaptions, etc, this may be their in-universe answer to close out ONGOING stories at some point in the next decade.
@Darth Pancake Studios It could also mean everyone that's unrepentantly evil like Joker or Lex just drop dead en masse.
As soon As I saw Darkseid I said: And people think he can't beat Galactus 😂
Galactus has been made a jobber living off his legend.
Me too!
But... In the DC Marvel crossover the writers of both comics wrote Galactus beating Darkseid. Js
Despite being more of a marvel fan i gotta admit most of Marvels super powered characters dont stand up to DC
Can you explain what even was that black energy dark side used to kill them?
The Quintessence: "we are the most powerful DC entities"
Darkseid walks in with boss music: "one shots every Quintessential on sight"
That was the definition of on sight
Its about time Darkseid is seen as he should be.
Shazadam 2: Electric Boogaloo
Comic books used to be a little easier to follow. I don't know where to buy lol
I agree lol, but i would say buy the first book of a character from infinite frontier that you find interesting when they come out and go a long from there.
What I did was start from the rebirth titles, makes it a little easier to get started without having to read anything before hand
@@SuperSteph5 that’s what I did as well. Even then though it’s hard to follow cus they always have so many titles going on at once and are constantly fucking with the timeline. I mean rebirth started in what like 2016? And yet here we are only 5 years later and they’re pretty much rebooting the universe once again
@@jeremyroberts8822 Yeah honestly some stuff is hard to follow especially if you haven't really learned about the entire DC universe. Having multiple titles and character team ups can get out of hand like batman had 3 titles going during rebirth. I don't think this is reboot but more of a new chapter for DC to get new readers
It’s not that hard. Just read whatever you want and look up or ask about what confuses you
Something tells me Darkseid might change a few Events to have John (Superman's Son) take over the world and be his Horseman.
Absolutely yes
A nightmare for clark
This Darkseid might become a reason for another DC reboot.....again.
Hehe... John Horseman
The DC Fandome shirt made my day :D
First Reply ✌🏻
Hola Jamigo!
@@terabhaiseedhemaut Do you hate Doomsday clock. Be nice to me when you reply
I cant believe they brought back Supes and Batman wearing their underwear on the outside 😭
Ever been a strong man, woman or child? 🌉
Shazadam
Oh no... THE OVERSIMPLIFICATION ARE COMING TO THE COMICS TOO!
“Please, Don't Turn Me Into An Oversimplified Name”
Black Adam is a more simple name than shazadam imo
I audibly started groaning towards the end when they revealed yet *another* multiverse-ending threat. Can't we just lower the stakes after the fiasco that was Death Metal?
i got a feeling it have to do with dceu, arrowverse
It will likely relax after this big bad as darkseid is THE big bad. Probably won’t have another big one for a while
Dc: NO
At least this one actually feels natural and makes a ton of sense. Darkseid being unkillable yet not all powerful because he's split between universes has been a thing the longest now. It makes sense that with the last crisis event making EVERYTHING Canon, he's also whole again and fully broken. I'm just not particularly interested in seeing him overcome. It's because DC sets these impossible goals for everyday heroes to overcome that we end up with reboots
Anyone reading this, please keep fighting through whatever you are battling. You are loved. You are no mistake and everything is for a reason from our great creator.
I love that they didn't just give the heroes the "piecing together old lives," bit, the reveal at the end, that an antagonistic force is also the sum of its whole history made one, that just amps up the writing for me and i am stoked to see where infinite frontier goes
I actually despise the “new” name for Black Adam. Shazadam? No. Black Adam IS his name.
I doubt its his actual new name, just the name he's given these folks to call him while he does his hero work. Can't have them associating him with a supervillain, after all.
Do you think we will see Black Adam as an anti-hero in the DCEU just like how he is a hero in this comic book event?
@@quentinfogger5755 perhaps. I still want him to be an antagonist to Shazam tho eventually.
It's not his actual name, and even if it were, it won't stay.
@P P Not really. Is “Black Canary” racist?
"I know how it's pronounced, but I don't give a Shazadam."
Wally West Forever! Grew up watching the Justice League tv show.
i did too, i loved that show
Oh thank God, I thought it would be the Batman who Laugh.
same
I thought it was the anti monitor since he talked about crisis
Imagine if that happened...
I like that Wally West is returning as Flash. He's always been my personal favorite Flash.
Same here
Alan Scott will look for the missing members of the JSA. Does that include Hawkman, Kent Nelson, Rex Tyler, Charles McNider, and Jay Garrick?
I thought Jay was back already he fought with the flash family against the legion of zoom
@@uskjabjrenfsvj4421 Forget I said Jay.
@@michaelgutierrez4912 -forgotten-
So typical of Uxas to sneak up on his enemies & kill them off in one fell swoop.. No matter what form he takes, his behavior pattern is so fucking predictable
🤣
salty?
@@hulkbelowall9532 nope.. it's just too predictable
@@AifDaimon I thought you were making a funny remark, not actually complaining. Of course he's gonna do bad stuff. He's a villain. That's what he's supposed to do. You could say the same thing for every villain. "Bruh, is Kraven trying to hunt Peter? This sucks. His behavior is so predictable." It doesn't make any sense. That's the whole point.😅
Yuca sneaks up on me too, when I go to the bathroom...
Dc is killing characters faster in this new multiverse already than in lead up to and event: infinite crisis.
That’s what happens when you pander to the counter-clockwise public
@@SlapNuts4Life how is this pandering?
@@markercrayon457 if you don’t get it then there’s no amount of “dumbing down” that will help you understand
@@SlapNuts4Life how is killing characters pandering though?
@@SlapNuts4Life I think they’re actually confused bro
You might wanna answer them
Welcome to Wild Wild Multiverse-World... Now
It's omniverse now.
Omniverse but you got the spirit
@@M.U.I.Wukong she is a little confused but she got the spirit 😆
@@M.U.I.Wukong Do you hate Doomsday clock
Be respectful to me when you reply
I hate Doomsday clock
Kind of funny that Wonder Woman has ascended beyong godhood and still prays to Hera
makes perfect sense to me.
@@charliesthill4790 yeah it's what she grew up doing but now Hera better be praying to her lol
So this is basically like the aftermath of crisis on infinite earth
No its the continue of Death Metal
@@c.bsportsofficial67 Do you hate Doomsday clock. Be respectful to me when you reply
#RetconDoomsdayClock
It is the only way to save comics
@@glitchman3999
??. U smoking crack or something😂.
Let's have an entire history episode of Stan Lee's "Soldier Zero".
Why tho?
Who?
Apparently this character is like the Venom Suit Soldier Flash. A dude in a wheelchair bonded with a parasite to be a hero.
@@jonnjonzz5307
Why not?
I want a History of the Jack Monroe Nomad.
Shazadam looks like Billy and Adam merge into one being 🧐 my guess, they did.
i think darkseid is a fusion of himself and the anti monitor
That makes a lot of sense if he is
I think it's that every avatar of Darkseid coalesced into a being with his true form. Since Darkseid's true form is an entire dimension (as well as extremely powerful) and he previously could only send fractions of his power through his avatars, he's no longer limited by that. Now Darkseid can finally throw his full weight around
No
@@tatersalad76 kinda scary when you put it like that
Nope this is just true form darkseid.
To the person who is reading this, don’t give up on your UA-cam channel. Keep going it’s going to get better.
Thx
Thx
Fasho
Ok thanks..i guess
Thnx
Hope they do more Red hood stuff, especially with Roy back
“we’re going cliff notes here people” you’re a funny guy 😂😂
I watch this channel's content so much, I'm convinced every hero/villain sounds like you
That Diana new design **Chef kiss**
I wonder if “BLADAM” came across their mind 🤔😅
Tyler from Imaginary Axis is smirking in the background after reading those last few pages😄.
I understood that reference
Loved this issue, perfect primer ala 2017’s Marvel Legacy. I got into reading DC monthlies halfway through rebirth and am happy to be here for this and ready to take on these new storylines at the start, after reading the initiative-concluding events in depth, I feel totally on board with where things are going. For this new era I’m pulling Batman, Swamp Thing, Wonder Woman, Catwoman, Detective Comics, Harley Quinn, Joker, Wonder Girl, and we’ll see what else they announce, also pulling Bat/Cat and Strange Adventures, but those are clearly adjacent to this effort, great video!!
That lil Black Adam rant/outburst felt like it was unscripted😂
This is looking really cool so far. I checked out and loved the Swamp Thing and Crime Syndicate books.
So all of Darkseid’s past iterations from each pre and post crisis events became one. So basically he’s whole again in a sense. He became once again the only darkseid in DC. A multiversal singularity actually it would be called an omniversal singularity at this point.
Black Adam to Shazdam, it’s something funny.
It should like something out of Space Jam...
Damm... Shazam
Dad Shaz
Omg... The possibilities
Infinite frontier is finally here🎉🎉
And i thought this was gonna be detailed sad noises.
we have a masterpiece here guys!
the final pages, oh man... i'm excited as hell!
i am so happy to see wally be flash again
he was REALLY killing that Shazadam joke lol
Can Barry and Wally just unleash their power in infinite frontier? Like just go off . Fight some cosmic beings ( he has before but not many) , but as a whole just do some cool shit. Plus i want Wally to stop being bullied by DC. Maybe he gets the mobius chair back... maybe he combines with the speed force again. Or Barry could join the black racer again(probs not gonna happen but hopefully)...like if u agree
that would be fun and reaaaaaly badass
I imagine people will get confused about the Batman's
One is White and One is Black. Like Micheal Jackson. Not that confusing
Yeah we gotta have one regular one and one to pander to the counter clockwise public....... for every damn character 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Yo fr tho....as a hardcore Batman fanboy even I am having a hard time keeping up with all the batmans
@@gabanna isnt there only 2 right now?
Decided to pick up this issue as my entry point into the DC Comics Universe. I really feel like I picked the perfect time to do this. Really gets me excited to read the Batman and Superman stories
Wally!!!!! Finally after all this chaos with him, he is back!!! Darkseid in his REAL FORM no more avatars this is the real MoFo this the second most epic thing i ever seen in DC (the most epic of course is one million golden superman)
Tell me, how can you take a guy named "Shazadam" seriously?
This is great because F.S. was trash. There were some really good stories but there were more bad. Like the Magistrate stuff and the Unkind garbo.
We all have opinions I guess. But out of the 24 titles, and the 24 back-up stories, most of them were really well done. They were praised by the people who actually checked them out. Not saying that you're doing this, but I saw too many people shitting on all of the stories after reading one. And that sucks.
@@JohnDoe97637 I literally followed every story and fealt like future state was a step back. Gotham taken over by nobodies after Batman fought Dark Knights and a cosmic Goddess.... Right....
Jon's story was good. The lanterns and the House of El was amazing. Earth 3 was great. But the Gotham stuff was trash to me. The Unkind story was done better in the Justice League Legacy arc. The Legion was confusing to most people. I'm not trashing on DC because of a few one shots I'm saying I genuinely did not like some of the Future State stories. I like the concept of poor Bruce and Tim as Batman. But to see Gotham taken over after everything that just happen is like knocking out mike Tyson only to get ko'd by PeeWee Herman. Bruce lost to regular people with the same tech as he has.... Cool story bro.
@@daemonblackfyre3238 That's fine, but trashing on around 24 titles and 24 back-up stories because of those reasons (that only apply to a few Future State stories anyway), isn't fair at all. And we can have different opinions on the event. But nothing in my previous comment was false.
Thank you so much for raising the fundraiser for North Texas, everybody appreciates
I Love The Way He Explained The Subtle Hint Of Fans Having A Say Through Their Action To Buy👍🏼
i just can't wait til the new robin (damian wayne) comic series comes out
I really, reeeeally want a new Justice Society book
Maaaaan wether some of these stories are hit or miss for people one thing is certain to me DC Comics is just on another level.
Roy: Telling my mates I'm back from the dead would be too weird.
Pretty much all his friends: Really? You think we would find coming back from the dead weird?
I’m interested in what the future of dc will be like, but I have a theory on what earth omega is.
In doomsday clock they reference that super man will fight alongside Thor and the hulk with sacrifice himself in the crisis war. Earth omega is unlike any of the other dc earths.
What if Earth Omega is the Marvel 616 world?
Nobody’s else’s 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Me: batgirl fine asf 🤣🤣🤣
Hey, I'm there with you. She was looking too good.
"I will watch your career with great interest"
i read it as "DC Reveals The infinite furniture"
i was like WoW what is the furniture can do?
Infinite frontier, basically were just throwing everything we can come up with, and seeing what sticks, it sounds interesting, I don't know if it will be good but it sounds interesting
Can you do a history of the mother box?
Wait, what? An Amazon from Brazil? Time to summon the all mighty brazilian comment wave
I really love your videos especially because I don’t have any comics. I love the stories in the books and I thank you for having this channel.
"All of existence shall be... mine".
Shazadam is dumb for a name...How do you mess up a iconic character's name.
It’s Black Adam...will never change.
12:39 DC This is the most badass new redesign for Wonder Woman with the red and white.🤤
I haven’t really been keeping up with comics because I don’t read them so thanks
Haven’t watched it yet but the title draw me *in*
1:29 to 1:50 I'm glad they added that little loophole cause I wasn't crazy about Future State outside of 2 or 3 books and really didn't want that to be the definite DCU future.
12:06 page with Peacemaker. They were planning him to get big with the Suicide Squad 2021 ahead of time huh?
Alan Coming Out: Beautiful feels
Iceman Coming Out: More like kicked out a damn window!
I like this, like i really like this. I wasn't too sure what DC was trying to do with Future State and the whole throwing ideas at the wall and seeing what sticks and it kinda left me in a weird limbo with the company, but THIS? This i can 100% get behind. I've longed to see Darkseid on the world-ending scale he was in Final Crisis again and it feels like they're going back to those roots. Also Jonathan Kent as a future world destroyer?? Yes PLEASE! Ever since Supersons i've lost complete interest in the character and that even goes for DCeased, i felt like he was too much a carbon copy of his father and the beyond tired "Am i worthy of the mantel?" trope. But a future set in stone where he's brought shame to the House of El and pain to the world and we get to see his slow fall to darkness?? I NEED THAT BOOK NOW! I'm curious where this new Batman story goes as well but i really hope they keep the Jokers involvement to a minimum because i feel like DC has relied of the clown a little too much of late. Everything just looks good right now. I just hope this new era can deliver on everything they've just set up.
What do you think is the best thing about Wonder Woman spending time with the Spectre and the Quintessence? Can you do history of Eclipso, the Spectre and the Quintessence?
That Darkseid reveal though ✋😑👌
New darksied looks cooler and makes sense. Also i am excited for conner kent
Where is Conner
@@johnlawful2272 Captured by Amanda Waller and being forced to lead the suicide squad.
Variant please do an episode where you explain what is the quintesence like if you agree
I know I keep asking this, but I would really love to see a video showcasing all of the best comics/collectibles the Variant team has
everything looks dope af
10:59 Barry looking kinda off here. Just a little bit...
Hey DC Comics I do not like future State please don't let that possible future happen. Hopefully they read my comment😉
So much for... Sensing the Threat.
They cant sense just few feet behind them that got them Backstab.
What a way to introduce a Villain
Darkseid literally just took out The Spectre, wtf!?
If this darkseid comic is as good as darkseid war than we are in for a treat
So now it's the (Omniverse)
and there will also be :-
- Dark Omniverse
- Anti Omniverse
- Dark Anti Omniverse
Collectively they are the (STUPIDverse)
@mcm Nope, you have to start much earlier. Variant Comics & Comics Explained have fantastic videos explaining the different sagas and story arcs, you should watch those first before starting to read the latest releases.
Honestly all this infinite frontier, and future state shit just made the DC comics continuity more convoluted and complicated than it already was.
10:58 Barry looking derpy as hell lol
DC > Marvel
DC=Marvel
@Shawn Kuhn DC AND MARVEL=BOTH GOOD
I prefer DC but Marvel is good too but DC is just more important
@@skymanxd6366 I loved both grew up with both it shouldn't be competition
@@williebelcher9303 I'm not trying to put this as a competition
Ok black Adam gets a new name bane is dead Wonder Woman is dead Alan Scott is gay again there is a academy for the teen titans jonathan is now older and took Superman place Artemis is alive Arkham explodes scarecrow is gonna be the new big bad there’s a new team of green lanterns Wally is now the flash Barry is going through the multiverse holy shit this is cool
No it's not cool
Infinite Frontier looks awesome! Can't wait for it to be rebooted in 2 years
And that’s how this world will end, not with a bang, but with a
*SHAZZADAM*
I REALLY hope this "shazadam" name isn't kept, it sounds dumb, very dumb.
64 Pages,
WHAT THE FU-
*language*
CK
This whole story set up is so cool! I can’t wait to read new issues coming out under Infinite Frontier
to understand what the spectre is talking about with Jon Kent you need to read New 52 Teen Titans, superboy and future state. Jon Kent became so tyranical it lead the universe to create the legion of super heroes
