    Sorry about the audio glitches in the first four minutes of the video. There were some unavoidable hardware issues and I did my best to fix what i could.
    Luckily I was able to catch the issue and I'm adding redundant recordings to try and prevent it from happening again moving forward.

      I mean, to be fair, Arrow Fam fans need more W's in general. As many W's as they can get, really. And you know. When it comes to apocalyptic stories, Oliver is at a good power level to be an underdog in the story, but is still popular enough to sell books! So hell yeah! Keep winning Arrow Fam folks! May Green Arrow and Black Canary keep stopping the apocalypse!

    9:05 I love how DC is so good at making the different versions of their characters feel like different people. If you had a vampire Dick Grayson dating Starfire in Teen Titans Go!, it would have a much different vibe because they have a known history as friends that the Dick and Star in this comic don't. I didn't even realize right away it's the same characters.

    13:00 In World War V, we see Aquaman alive, but with an eyepatch, meaning that Mera is most likely dead, but got a good few hits in
    14:20 it is confirmed that Supergirl did then bring back sunlight as a whole, though the weather system is screwed

    5:20 7:15 the "need to be invited to get in your house" rule is more complicated than people think, mostly because it depends a lot on what the vampire in question considers an invitation, Bram Stoker's Dracula for example, he was able to get inside Lucy Westerna's room to feed on her because she slept with her room's windows open, Dracula considered that an invitation, after all, if she didn't want him to come inside her room why would she leave the windows open for him?

    glad I'm not the only one who didn't like the ending of this book, it left such a bad taste in my mouth that I don't even care about what happens in World War V. doesn't help that it seems to mostly focus on the Bat-family (Barbara being the vampire queen, Damian being a rogue vampire, issue #2 spoiler I found out about from a short) like come on DC you can focus on other characters it won't kill you

    When I first read this, I guessed that the King of Vampires was... Alan Scott. We saw early on that a Green Lantern ring can counteract a lot of vampire weaknesses, Alan lived in Gotham during the golden age, and he's got some vampiric traits already (wears a dracula cape, weak to wooden stakes, hasn't aged since 1965).
    Anyway, I didn't like this comic, but I did like this video!

    DC Vampires is peak comicbook. It's so silly, it's impossible for me to get mad with how stupid it is at times. That whole thing with Wondy being hypnotized made me roll my eyes for all the reasons you can imagine, but after I got over that it's been a real fun read.

    Ngl this book sounds like ass. It would already be unappealing for me considering the whole “becoming a vampire makes you pure evil” shtick is my least favorite kind of vampire story, but between the Bat-worship in the beginning, the characters often acting stupid or out of character, and every twist either being predictable or random, I don’t think I’d get anything out of it. At least the people who do enjoy it are getting a continuation.

  • @richardsphd
    @richardsphd 9 годин тому

    I really liked this comic when it started out, but I kinda stopped reading comics because I was too busy for a while. I was so disappointed when I came back to find it had devolved into just discount DCeased. The murder mystery plot was so interesting, and Vampire Hal was so hateable, but the book gave all of that up by the end of the 6th issue.
    The world-building felt really confused to me. If Nightwing became King by killing the Queen, why did no-one else do the same to him? It's weird to see Hal and Diana, both MUCH more powerful than any normal vampire should be, be so loyal to Dick, yet both Barbara and Damian just give no shit about vampire hierarchy and actively work against their king.
    The comic is not all bad (there's this one scene I love from All-Out War where Midnighter and Vampire Prometheus have a stare down, both having their brain computers calculating the optimal fight plan for them, and after a moment of silence Prometheus goes "Nah you win" and just kills himself), but I was heavily disappointed by the end. And not to be a downer, but World War V is not shaping up to be any better.
    If I had a nickel for every post apocalyptic DC storyline feauturing a classic horror trope, in which Alfred Pennyworth inherits one of the mantles of the deceased Hal Jordan thanks to his own inner strength, to protect Damian Wayne...

    My best friend and I are big fans of DC vs Vampires… the original. Our party’s DnD campaign is based on the main series. All Out War is pretty okay too, but the new series (World War V) is a massive miss to me. I usually don’t like Matthew Rosenberg’s writing, so I’m not all that surprised, but still disappointed so far.

    The first issues set ground rules as plain as day for how the story would work, detective mystery, batfam as main characters, etc. which separated it from dceased.
    Then it shit on it all AND THEY KILLED NIGHTWING AGAIN. As it is now, it’s just a worse version of DCeased

If Batman its as paranoid as the internet make him to be He would have dozens of plans ready for any kind of infiltration war and the like. 6/10 entertaining I guess but you need to not to think too deeply about it to enjoy it.

    Love the video but didn’t really vibe with the series, got tired of “heroes going evil” even if this isn’t technically that, same difference etc etc
    Also, I’m nerdy enough to know that multiple characters here would have immunity to vampirism, which I get doesn’t really matter since out of continuity story, but still makes it hard for me to get immersed and enjoy. Like, the beginning just had me thinking “why didn’t Hal’s ring purge the vampirism” or, better yet, “why didn’t the ring immediately restrain Hal and alert the Corps that he had something weird going on with him”
