- A whispered look at the comic books from my collection. I haven't collected since about 2012/2013 but may change that (though I can't guarantee it).
Thanks for watching and for your support!

What is ASMR?
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current (non-scientific) name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering and personal attention.
ASMR videos are not only meant to help induce ASMR or "tingles", but also help provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer while helping to relieve their anxiety, stress, insomnia, to help those suffering with PTSD or depression, to serve as a study aid and more.

I feel like Neil Gaiman's The Sandman series would be up your alley.
Watching this in May 2020. With no new nooks currently coming out, videos like this is extra powerful.
Watching Oct 2019. I wish I could like this every time I watch it. PAUL, this video has got to be one of my favourites. I'm sure we would have been friends at school.
I miss your comic book vids. Thanks for sharing!
日本人がいっぱいいるwww
ちなみに俺も、PDRさんから
I love your Intros. They always feel welcoming and friendly. Especially this one
I am singly responsible for 10k views of this video. Even more therapeutic than the asmr qualities of this video is the content.
RIFT. More comic videos. Please. Maybe read a mini series and just discuss it. Start by buying Kill or Be Killed. It's a Brubaker and Phillips work so you'll definitely get it. There's only 20 in the whole run. That's it. Buy the first trade and do a video on that and see how you go.
You would make my day if you get back into comics.
PDRさんから
Uncle E, I have been waiting SO LONG for another comic video. You have made my week! Thank you so much. Your bagging and boarding videos will forever be my favorites!!!!
My first comic book involved Bane adopting orphans, giving them a nice home, and then having them hang onto his biceps while he robbed banks so that the cops couldn't shoot him.
He also taught a one year-old to swim and carry its own weight in order to bring about... Something.
Do you remember what it's called? Sounds interesting.
Nicolas McGee Batman Gotham Adventures: We Kid You Not!
Hard to forget that issue for sure.
Back in 2003 I was about 4 years old. My uncle who as in high school loved comic books but I couldn't read. So one day my grandmother took him and I to a comic book store called Mighty KC's Comics. I walked in and I was amazed at all the cool stuff in there. I had collected the spiderman action figures at the time and I had no clue that he was based off of comic books. So I walked over to the spiderman comics and picked out marvel team up #4 the Fantastic 4 and Spiderman. I immediately fell in love with comic books. I who have my dad read me that comic book all the time.
The comic you were talking about where Hulk goes to another planet is Planet Hulk, he gets sent their because SHIELD decide he's too dangerous around others on Earth, thus they send him into space to go to a far off planet where he can be by himself but the spacecraft he's on gets sucked into a wormhole and he crash lands on a different planet. Planet is already inhabited and he gets captured and ends up fighting in a Colosseum/gladiator setting. It's really good, they've made a movie and if you don't want to read the comic, definitely check out the movie it's worth the watch.
so its basically thor ragnarok
I remember they video where you bagged your comics! That was so relaxing, this too is also fantastic. Love comic book videos :3 Thank you!
Love your videos! Could u do a Arkham Knight review or walkthrough
Sunny Sangha YOU ARE A GENIUS.
why does he remind me of Ben stiller
I had a psychosis episode and 1 of your vids calmed me down, thank you very much.
Had an allergic reaction and started to panic,took my allergy pills but was still very much in shock.This helped calm me down,thanks brother.
My favorite Comic Book was and still is Adventures of Tintin. I first started reading them when I was in 5th grade and they were in my school library and I've loved them ever since.
I think I've been watching this video like 15 times. Comic books+ER+ASMR is just perfect.
Hi EM,
I found this video extremely fun to watch and one of my favourites in a long time. And although I've subscribed relatively recently I've watched a lot of videos of yours to understand the complex characters and worlds you have created.
I am a huge lover of superheroes so I know absolutely everything about comics but have only just begun actually reading them myself, so we are in a sorta similar position but with different levels of knowledge. Unfortunately I am the only person I know who likes comics, which doesn't really bother me since we have the internet to find like minded people on. Regardless I love both you're wonder and the mistakes you make when talking about comics. I normally find the people I speak to about comics, but they tend to either know more than me, or simply do not care. Your genuine interest is amazing to watch for me. (I may have to donate to patreon because of it)
For the record the main comics companies are Marvel and DC obviously, but the three other publishers of fruition are Image, Vertigo and Dark Horse. Archie and IDW are the other two, with the latter doing Transformers and G.I.Joe.
For the record here is a few answers to you're questions. There are no current runs of Hellboy or Judge Dredd, though I may be wrong about the first. Regarding not being able to pick up on long-running series', the new way comics seem to be moving is more of a seasonal route, with new runs beginning again every year with new #1s that make a jump-in point for new readers.
Marvel is currently going through a revamp event that will last until October, with after October 55-60 new #1s starting so everyone can see even the most niche characters get their own books. This would be a perfect place to jump in as all the stories will take place In the same universe to make things nice and simple for everyone.
The 'Planet Hulk' storyline of '06 saw a group of marvel's smartest people called the Illuminati (stay with me) send hulk away to space in exile because of the damage he caused in a previous storyline, so he lands on a planet and is captured by aliens and forced into gladiatorial games stuck in hulk form. He fights with fellow slaves, and using his powers, inspires the slaves to fight back against the oppressive race. Punch punch later he impregnates an alien woman while hulk (yep it happened) has a son and becomes the king if the planet, only to take his new army to earth to try and kill those who sent him into space in a story called 'World War Hulk'. Comics, eh?
The fantastic four are actually retired at the moment, with all of them going they're separate ways after 400 issues. It's due to Fox owning the rights to the fantastic four film series, which marvel are not happy with so they are basically trying to sabotage the film by writing them out of the comics. Dick move I know.
I'd look out for Captain America: Civil War next year in cinema, you may or may not see the iconic scene of his death on film (spoilers!) *wink* *wink*
DC is also going through a revamp series, though I think the new titles will not be all in the same world as opposed to marvel's if that makes sense. As opposed to this, DC is going to explore a lot of books at the same time, all in different universes. This means storytelling continuity doesn't really matter like marvel's does, so a mix of themes, interpretations of characters, art styles and stories will all be going on without each other's books dragging down the continuity. Hope that makes sense.
Some prominent writers at the moment are Jonathan Hickman, who is doing the avengers for the last three years, as well as running the entire universe changing 'secret wars' event I mentioned earlier. Robert Kirkman is still on The Walking Dead, no idea what issue now. Scott Snider is currently writing Batman and some really amazing and polarising things with him at the moment. You referenced Todd Mcfarlen, who created Spawn, e most famous character from Image comics.
Anyway I very much liked this episode as you can see, and I could write forever but I'll leave it at that. I don't expect you to reply but that's a few answers to some of your questions!
Where did my comment go?

You write a lot man..
Gianluca Canale Yeah I enjoyed the video a little too much lol
321puca Guys like this comment so EM can see, tis a good read :D
I couldn't help but notice the Question figure in the background. Lol Vic Sage has and will always be my favorite.
You definitely should have picked up those Walking Dead issues at that price. Issue 1, which was really low print to begin with, goes for a few thousand these days.
Of all your looks, this one is the best
pdrさん
I never liked comics when I was REALLY young, but I think around middleschool I liked TMNT and I bought my first comic, which was an Archie TMNT with Raphael in a totally black suit on the cover

Best mic settings and whisper voice, always puts me to sleep 😴
YAY! I am one of those who has been awaiting this video. I was introduced to you and ASMR through your first comic video several years ago. It's on my favorites list.
Under The Red Hood is my favorite graphic novel. Red hood is my favorite comic book character ever. Such a deep character
I remember the first comic book I read was from "Spiderman Unlimited." The issue didn't have much of Spiderman in it, but it was entertaining to read. But what got me really into collecting comic books after reading a few few old X-Men comic books and started with DC then expanded to Marvel Comics
I really loved the first Joy of ASMR video, and now one with Comic Books!? My day has been made already. Keep up the good work Uncle E :)
couple months???? I may die from a lack of joy :( I wish you could put out a new one of these every day, Uncle E. I love this series already, keep doing what you're doing!
The first comic book I read was The Goon. It really captured my imagination as a kid, and I followed it for the first dozen issues or so. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is interested in comic book collecting.
Great Moogly Googly.. I love that hat, almost as nice as mine! These videos combining our love of the great American sequential art form and ASMR is a wonderful and relaxing experience.Will have to recommend this to my subscribers who may not be familiar with ASMR.
Please don't encourage this hat.
KudosForKc Oh.......it's too late for that.
If you referencing from a certain movie your backwards it's great googely moogely
Dr_Kubiniec Oh I know that, I just think my way sounds better..
I do enjoy this video, and I hope you continue to make more!
Much love from Puerto Rico. Thanks for helping me fall asleep to some great moments in comics history. :D
MY WISH CAME TRUE
Lol its funny how things work out... i remember watching your pokemon videos 3 or 4 years ago lol
I must say, your son is one lucky boy to have a father like you.
Great video as always Uncle E!! ^-^
The joker and deadshot figures are badass! Also great video, lover my comics.
I'm a comic artist and I love asmr. A double win for me tonight haha! Thank you ER!Keep it up man^^
Great collection. Hellboy is my fav. Great Lovecraftian feel to the comic.
Fuck yeah! I have waited so long for this kind of comic asmr video from you. Thank u so much :)
This series is a great addition and I hope you keep it going with your more primary role play character series', in my opinion it's time to pull out the tangrams again for this one at some point man I miss those haha
I still remember the night you released the first comic book video, must have been well over a year ago. I'm sure i'll still get the same results... sleeeeeeeep
Great video! The white and black fantastic four and spiderman costumes were during the Future Foundation series I think. Don't quote me, but I'm pretty sure.
If you haven't already read them I would highly recommend the Star Wars Tales of The Jedi and Knights of The Old Republic series, they are both fantastic stories with some great artwork.
The Killing Joke and a Joker action figure? A+ my friend
Hey uncle E! I just wanted to say that this video is amazing! I've haven't seen much of your stuff lately because it a little bit too artistic for me. It's nice to see you post a casual down to earth video about comics. Thank you!
Second ASMR video for the night... Love ur work Paul. I've been listening to you and the ASMR nerd (Nick) recently. Soooo good. Thx!
You know what's great? Being able to watch this and have that sma exact sign in my room and starting at it. xD
I hope you've found the time or the interest to start collecting and reading comic books again. In the past couple years I've been collecting again. I know personally I couldn't live without them in my life. Much like your videos now...
Bring back the joy of ASMR
While watching this video I started thinking about "the road", which is a really good film if you like realistic, vivid, post-apocalyptic themed worlds and overall great cinematography. I searched "the road film review" to find Rift had done a film review, I'm speechless.
When I was a kid I never read comic books. I never even owned any. But, I loved Spider-Man and the Hulk. They were just the coolest things. I remember I would play the original Spider-Man game for the PS1 all day. I eventually went to a local comic book store around my early teens with my dad and he was gracious enough to buy me some comics of my choosing. I didn't know how comics worked back then, so I just picked out some that looked interesting. All in the Amazing Spider-Man series. I remember one with Venom, one with The Lizard, one where Peter Parker came back to life from the dead (or something like that), one where Spider-Man and Hobgoblin fight off Demogoblin, and a few others I can't remember at the moment. I still have them somewhere around here. A few years ago I delved deep into the comic world. I don't really have access to comics as they are too expensive for me to just go and buy. However, I've read into a ton of lore and backstory for a lot of characters/story archs and I have friends that keep me well informed when we discuss the comic world. Of course I've seen all the movies and played most of the games regarding any comic book character. I even play a Marvel mobile game multiple times a day. Colossus is my best character on that game. Overall, I think my favorite character is and always will be Spider-Man.
Keep up the good work. Love your videos , they help me with my insomnia.
Never really got into comics as a child. I did however watch alot of the original tv shows about them and fell in love with the superheroes and such. I wish I could get into comics i just feel super overwhelmed and don't know where to start whenever I try.
If you were looking to get back into comics dr.Fate now has his own continuing comic and it's only on issue 2 or 3.
Very nice video. I'm a big comic book fan myself and love to look through collections with friends. Also, If you liked spiderman: the grim hunt storyline, you should definitely check out Kraven's Last Hunt. That story is one of the best and darkest spiderman stories ever told. Seeing as how you mentioned that you prefer more moody and grittier heroes, I think you'll love kraven's last hunt. Keep up with the great vids!
Finally another comic video!!!!
hands down my favorite asmr video
I was never huge into Batman for some reason. I was more of a Spiderman and Flash kid growing up. But my all time favorite comic is still the graphic novel The Killing Joke, it gave me nightmares when I was a kid. My original copy signed by Allan Moore and Brain Bollard is my favorite comic possession
The only comic books I ever bought and read were the Simpsons comics. I've never been a fan of anything superhero, but the Simpsons, that was my jam.
Gail Simone had a FANTASTIC run with Batgirl. Never was much into Batman growing up but Simone's Batgirl run is one of the best written modern comics. You should check it out
Really like this series. Cant wait for more.
I have been waiting for one of these for years
You know it's a good video when it says 'watched' on the thumbnail and you don't remember watching it.. O_O
Hey Ephemeral, you may have already read them but there is an ongoing book series called the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher.
It pulls from quite a few different mythologies and some of the bloodier parts of the bible to tell the story of a middle aged wizard living in Chicago and having to deal with how all of these forces balance out in the world.
They're a good read but I should warn you there are already 14 books written for it so you might be reading it for awhile.
Heya. Did you hear that Doctor Fate has his own title now? It's a different person, a med student, being given the helmet to become Dr. Fate - has to save the world from Anubis wanting to flood it. Few issue in. You may dig.
You also might dig the Gotham By Midnight series. Dark, supernatural police in Gotham City. 1 trade out so far. Moody, beautiful art by Ben Templesmith. Their Annual has a great take on The Gentleman Ghost.
Fantastic video! Could you do some more episodes about your comic book and Trade paper back collection please.
Rift, you are the Eminem of asmr... people misunderstand your message sometimes, but those who get you know that your a genius who isn't afraid of speaking your mind
UNCLE EM!! THANKS FOR THE VID! Been asking and waiting for another comic vid many moons ago
I was so excited for the vid I added an unnecessary M
Probably just a typo
My first comic was Superman 137 (i think). Then i started collecting comics in 2012 when I first bought my first graphic novel or hardcover, JL Vol 1 Origin.
I started reading comics 2 years ago, we were cleaning out the basement and I found 4 long boxes and 17 regular boxes of comics and my dad said the are mine and I’ve finished 6 boxes of comics
Ayye Super hero comics are what got me into comics the first one I read was dead pool v. Hawkeye. I was super confused but it totally changed my life. Now I'm going to school to make comics, or well, graphic novels. Which you should totally get into. They're like comics but longer and normally only one book long. It's all about story and being artistic and having a bigger meaning and I think you'd love them. Some best in my opinion are Asterios Polyp, king city, Allens War, fun home, and little star. All by diffrent people but if you look up (title) graphic novel you should be able to find them :)
That was great!!! Please, more videos about comic books. Comics + ASMR = Mindblown :D Good job and keep going ;D
Amazing video enjoyed the comics quite an impressive collection.
Been waiting years for a new comic video
I've been wanting to do comic book videos for months (not ASMR videos) but always worried about them being too long
Dude don't worry about them being to long. I have only read 2000 AD comics but as long as you don't speak like a robot I would totally watch your vids.
INVISIGOTH What ozviskid said. Long videos are ideal for naps or sleep. Also, ASMR is a great thing because you do not need much stuff to get into the party. So don't be afraid to jump in my friend. :)
***** yeah, I made a comic video, but like I said, it's not ASMR and i'm not a good speaker and I don't have cool stories or anything
If you really like comics, then the mere act of sharing your passion with the others and telling interesting facts can be worth listening. Plus, if you persist into making videos, you will automaticly improve your speech. ;D
So because of this video I convinced my wife to let me start a comic book collection! any suggestions? also thank you so much for your content! I fall asleep to one of your videos every night, no matter how many times I have seen it.
Love this as I'm a massive comic book fan. And I have the john byrne 6 part man of steel series. One of best takes on superman I think. Brilliant video. Would love to see more
Another ER comic video! Awesome, been a while.
Are you planning on doing a fat pack unboxing for Magic Origins? Your 2013/2014 Core Set videos got me into the game. Thanks for that. : )
Never been a big comic book fan but the video was interesting (even for me). Awesome!)
ER have you read "Death, The high cost of living" I know for absolute fact you would LOVE that comic... It's incredible.
The first comic I read was part one of the ice man limited edition four part series. AND THAT CAME OUT IN THE 80's I was 9 when I read it.
I really like your "Comics and Long Box" series. :) Nice Job. I would have preferred that you showed us more pages and art in this video (like in the old videos), but I liked it nonetheless.
I actually just got done reading my first comic book, though I guess you'd probably consider The Long Halloween more of a graphic novel. I was really surprised to learn just how much The Dark Knight, my favorite film of all time, was influenced by that great story. Always been a huge fan of Batman, and I'm looking forward to exploring more of his story on the pages, as well as those of his enemies.
Something something bring back Young Justice.
Thanks for the vids, Rift. I don't usually comment, but I feel like I should just let you know how much it means to me and many others that you do this. I've never met you, and I probably never will, but I consider you a friend regardless.
You should definitely check out The Killing Joke, The Dark Knight Returns, and Batman Zero Year. All classics. Just remember about the multiverses and how some stories take place in alternate timelines.
Yeah, I already bought Returns and Killing Joke, looking forward to reading them!
You really should check out the graphic novels by Chris Ware. Really depressing stories but told in a very beautiful and graphical way.
my grandfather has the 1960 daredevil comic book. all I know is his enemy is the owl or something and since its the real deal its like 300-700$. mint condition too
I never got in to comic book, but seeing how much people enjoy then, I kind of wish I did.
Dr fate has his own run now!!! You should definitely check it out! The new jla is also GREAT and the new black canary run!
Batman court of the owls and batman night of the owls. Probably one of the best batman storylines since hush
The blackest night era of jeff johns green lantern run and the blackest night event itself is also a good one, the flashpoint paradox aswell.
And who could forget the mark wade run of daredevil
Haven't watched the whole video, just skimmed, but that 1:15:03 Batman Robin comic was amazing when I read it. So cool that you have it!
this is great, keep this series going E.R!
I love Scott Snyder! The first comic I read of his was the Batman Night of owls or court of owls I forgot, loved it
Great comics video! I've enjoyed your previous comics related videos and I'm glad you're making more!
I have a huge Hellboy/BPRD collection myself (quite an inclusive one :P ), so if you have any questions about getting back into it or something similar, feel free! Would be cool to see some more Hellboy asmr, like your previous video.
Anyways, keep up the cool work!
Yes another comic video
I was always more of a Marvel guy but in the last couple of years I realized that Image Comics easily puts the Big Two to shame regarding quality and originality.
Just to mention a few: Chew, Saga, I Kill Giants, Fatale, The Manhattan Projects, Fear Agent, Low...
E.R.! D.C. Have just given Dr. Fate his own series! I think its only up to #2 at the moment!
I was super into the Thor comics, so good.
ANOTHER VIDEO LIKE THIS PLEASE
More of these please!
Also you should check out Justice League 3000
(ER looks like Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park to me in this one :P)
