Rob. You left out the best part!!! It ties in perfectly with your focus on Connor Kent. This is the story where he uses his tactile tk for the first time since his resurrection. When he uses it on earth 2 Superman, post crisis Superman asks him why he hadn't used it sooner, and when Conner tells him he was basically trying to live up to his legacy, Superman tells him he should use whatever he has at his disposal and be his own person
Rob I have been watching your videos for a while now and I just have to say...you are the fucking man. You put in a lot of work and effort with detail and communicating complicated timelines and for someone who doesn't have time to go out and pick up all these comics I feel like I am staying up to date with my favorite characters and new story lines. Just, great work. Really, I think I speak for everyone with that sentiment. Cheers my good man.
Rob, you know so much and do so much research its so crazy how much. And you tell it in a good story format i understand everything. The party type music in the background is just right. keep doing your thing bruh
I don't follow comics that much, but from what I gathered Superman always held back and restrained due to not wanting to kill his opponents or for the safety of others around him when fighting. There could be an argument that the black lantern villains are stronger because they have no restraints and no fear of death.
I've always really liked Blackest Night and it was my first real introduction to the Lantern Corps. I own the main book but I've always wanted to get the Black Lantern Corps spin-offs. Last weekend I found the two Black Lantern Corps TPB used at a thrift store. Got them for $10 together! Just read Black Lantern Batman and sitting down to read the Superman one now. I'll watch this afterwards.
I hate waiting for Blackest Night videos they are so freakin good. I especially like that one time when you binged the Planet Hulk and World War Hulk videos
I always thought supergirl was STRONGER not more powerful than superman, in sheer power cuz she had been more charged with solar energy, but superman was more experienced and skilled with his powers thus making him more POWERFUL
Well she's supposed to be older and more experienced than him, so that confuses me tbh. She needs to chill in the sun for a few years and be like "what now clark?"
What if suggestions: -What if Carnage or Ghost Rider got a red lantern ring? -What if Venom infected Doomsday? -What if Aquaman got a (any color) lantern ring? -What if Tony Stark created a mark suit using infinity stones?
Xoloseof Gashi I don't think ghost rider would be affected much by the red lantern ring. The ghost rider only fights bad people. Maybe the red lantern ring would make him kill a lot more bad people faster.
So that's a bit of a sad story. After New 52 launched, they gave Conner his own book & Teen Titans. But they changed his origin so that he was basically a living weapon/organ bank for the Titans' really badly written villain Harvest's adopted son, who was an alternate Jon Kent from Rebirth. But his stories weren't all that great, and he barely interacted with the SuperFamily (there wasn't one; he only met Superman & Supergirl during the H'el stories). He died and was replaced with the evil Jon Kent, who tried to redeem himself and died saving Conner. Towards the end of New 52, they tried to find anything to do with him, but floundered. He was supposedly framed for killing a bunch of people, but they were really aliens, and he essentially left never to be seen again (like Bart Allen). Then after Convergence, Post-Crisis Superman came back with his son, the Rebirth Jon Kent, who became the new Superboy. After history got its missing 10 years back following Superman Reborn, Superman spent an issue dealing with the new history, and only remembered 3 Superman during Reign of the Superman; with both the original and New 52 Superboy no longer existing, so Jon Kent can be the sole Superboy.
Conner came back during Convergence. Convergence was a "wallet vote" to decide the content of Rebirth. Everyone got a 2 part one shot and the ones that sold well got there own stories. Conner and Earth 2 Superman fought in his and it was decent but Superman got Lois and John and fans ate that shit up which down played having classic Conner Kent back.
Conner Kent is not a carbon copy of Clark Kent. He might be named Superboy, and he might have been made from his DNA, but his personality is very different from Clark's.
Rob I’m a huge football fan but all day yesterday I was waiting on you to drop the next blackest night video. You had me worried that you weren’t going to post it haha
Roooooooooooooooooob. I need more Juggernaut videos. Juggernaut vs Superman? Fear Itself? Eighth Day? Just a suggestion. This is my most watched youtube channel and the lack of Juggs love makes me sad. Not sure why people look at me like im crazy when I tell them Juggy is my favorite comic book character. Also im convinced that Juggernaut would wreck Goku. Keep up the awesome work man. To bad im a recluse because id love to run into you at a con and shake your hand.
Drinking game for his videos. Take a drink whenever he says: "What this does is" "For all intents and purposes" "At the end of day" "What we end up doing"
12:00 Correction: "Supergirl: Many happy returns" was written by Peter David, not Loeb. It's the best Supergirl story I've read. The writer intended to bring the naive Supergirl from the Silver age back, with a comic book series called "Blonde Justice", featuring the original Supergirl Linda Danvers, Matrix-enhanced White Shirt Supergirl Linda Lee, and Power Girl, but it was cancelled and the Supergirl was reintroduced as a naked teenager crash-landing into Gotham's habour in "Superman/Batman: the Supergirl from Krypton", which was adapted into an animated movie.
Is Kyrpto stronger than super man? Because if he’s like a dog just super powered and super man is a just a human with superpowers and a lot of dogs can beat/kill people could Kyrpto kill super man?
That was pretty video that's nicely explained. And you didn't ignore pre-Crisis like other video channels do. You should do crisis conscience before infinite crisis amd convergence.
Lastly, whatever happened to the Man of Tomorrow seem to suggest the Post Crisis Superman is actually a different Superman from old Earth 1 one. More like a "rebooted version". The pre Crisis Superman grew old and called quits. Of course, that story's canon...ness is contested.
Hey Rob love your videos!! If you have not already read Gotham Resistance parts 1-3 Dark Nights metal tie ins the last part comes out this Wednesday and damn it is... its the best thing coming out of D.C. Rebirth right now
QUESTION FOR ROB : If it happens over the course of one night , then why do Dick Grayson & Damian say that they were going to fight the lanterns “tomorrow” after they tricked the lanterns with the freeze ray thingy ?
Everytime im high man, I listen to your videos. You take me on a magical journey man.
Me too
Istg Wdf😭😭😭
The hell 😂

PantherBanana lmfao this made me giggle a bit, ain't gonna lie.
In all truth, I learn a lot from this channel. Thanks Rob!
Huge fan, thanks for your knowledge of all my favorite comics and covering all the stories I haven't gotten to read. You're the shit. ROB CORPS
Is Rob gonna do the Superboy-Prime tie-in where he takes one of the Black Lantern Rings and says "Fuck you and your rules"?
Just Some Guy with a Mustache that's a thing!?! I NEED TO SEE THIS!!!
Just Some Guy with a Mustache have you met Just Some Guy without a Mustache?
You guys look exactly the same but you a mustache and he doesn't
Tim Horn niiiiiiigggaaaaaaaaaa whhaaaaaaaaatt???
Just Some Guy with a Mustache ahh adventure comics Featuring Superboy-Prime
That moment when you spot Just Some Guy with a Mustache right next to Just Some Guy without a Mustache.
Rob I have been watching your videos for a while now and I just have to say...you are the fucking man. You put in a lot of work and effort with detail and communicating complicated timelines and for someone who doesn't have time to go out and pick up all these comics I feel like I am staying up to date with my favorite characters and new story lines.

Couldn't have said it any better brother, all hail Rob!
Rob, you know so much and do so much research its so crazy how much. And you tell it in a good story format i understand everything. The party type music in the background is just right. keep doing your thing bruh
I usually wait until my ride home from work but I couldn't wait to see this
I don't follow comics that much, but from what I gathered Superman always held back and restrained due to not wanting to kill his opponents or for the safety of others around him when fighting.

Awwwww yeah Green Lantern is back!
DC Metal
She'll never be the same.
nobody can draw Supergirl like Michael Turner...... RIP
You can't spell "comicsexplained" Without "comic" & "sex"
Stay woke
The Astral King I am W O K E
DAMNIT!!! MY SCHEME HAS BEEN DISCOVERED!!!!!!!!!!
Goddammit, I've made that joke on this channel like six times and I got squat lol
My two favourite things
CUM-X-PLAINED. Now type that in your search engine. Stay woke.
I hate waiting for Blackest Night videos they are so freakin good. I especially like that one time when you binged the Planet Hulk and World War Hulk videos
Thank you for the special exemption ! Yes! Superman black lantern!! OHHH!! So dope !
1:05
That's got to be the lewdest superhero outfit I've ever damn seen
FINALLY
Felt like an eternity waiting for this
Conner Kent blew up when Teen Titans reformed from young justice n gave him the black and red t-shirt
Man, Blackest Night on one end, the best runs of Iron Man on the other? This channel is just pumping out fantastic stuff right now, great work
Hell yes I've been waiting for any sort of explained on this thank you!
Keep the vids coming. I'm obsessed.
It's the Superman that got beaten to death by Superboy Prime.
I always thought supergirl was STRONGER not more powerful than superman, in sheer power cuz she had been more charged with solar energy, but superman was more experienced and skilled with his powers thus making him more POWERFUL
Well she's supposed to be older and more experienced than him, so that confuses me tbh. She needs to chill in the sun for a few years and be like "what now clark?"
Superman is superior
this is why DC has rich sources and great stories and great hero/villains
Rob, rebirth is getting so good all characters have cool story's
Connor Kent: The best there ever was, the best there ever is, the best there ever will be.
Yehhyyyyyy!! Definitely worth the extra days wait! Awesome! A week can feel so long sometimes.
What if suggestions:
-What if Carnage or Ghost Rider got a red lantern ring?
-What if Venom infected Doomsday?
-What if Aquaman got a (any color) lantern ring?
-What if Tony Stark created a mark suit using infinity stones?
Xoloseof Gashi I don't think ghost rider would be affected much by the red lantern ring. The ghost rider only fights bad people. Maybe the red lantern ring would make him kill a lot more bad people faster.
Xoloseof Gashi I think carnage getting a yellow lantern ring would make more sense.
The Tony Stark making suit with infinity stones sounds very lit and vexing.
What if Doomsday had a Adamantium skeleton.
What if Superman and WonderWoman had a son, and he became a Transgender...what would he be called?
Believe me rob we noticed the missing video
Great timing Rob! Just in time for my late night workout
I want to see Conner Kent in D.C. Rebirth hopefully in somehow appears in doomsday clock
Jman27 Joestar I love Jonothan but Conner us the 1 true Superboy we need to give John a new name
Rhett Mcfarland i agree
I haven’t kept up all that well the last few years what happened to Conner?
So that's a bit of a sad story. After New 52 launched, they gave Conner his own book & Teen Titans. But they changed his origin so that he was basically a living weapon/organ bank for the Titans' really badly written villain Harvest's adopted son, who was an alternate Jon Kent from Rebirth.

6:46 Rob is a wrestling fan. This is your best video ever (coming out of DC Rebirth)
rob screw rob
Can you please do a video on War of Kings? It's one of my favourite comic book stories ever.
Conner Kent is not a carbon copy of Clark Kent. He might be named Superboy, and he might have been made from his DNA, but his personality is very different from Clark's.
Bring back 90's Superboy with the leather jacket
yes i am enjoying the contents of this channel
Rob I’m a huge football fan but all day yesterday I was waiting on you to drop the next blackest night video. You had me worried that you weren’t going to post it haha
thank you. I was wondering what the fudge happened with the Green Lantern video yesterday.
Do a video on super dog , how powerful is he? Are all kryptonian animals and plants super-powered by a yellow sun?
Ayeee go Rob lol knew it would be a double release day had to take a break at work when I got the alert 😂😆
It was a really cool moment when Connor gets that Black Lantern
Roooooooooooooooooob. I need more Juggernaut videos. Juggernaut vs Superman? Fear Itself? Eighth Day? Just a suggestion. This is my most watched youtube channel and the lack of Juggs love makes me sad. Not sure why people look at me like im crazy when I tell them Juggy is my favorite comic book character. Also im convinced that Juggernaut would wreck Goku. Keep up the awesome work man. To bad im a recluse because id love to run into you at a con and shake your hand.
You think you can just post this on Monday instead of Sunday and everything is fine well it is thank you I was dying yesterday without you Robbie chan
Drinking game for his videos. Take a drink whenever he says: "What this does is" "For all intents and purposes" "At the end of day" "What we end up doing"
bro, I was so wondering what was up with the next blackest night video! don't play with my emotions like that rob
hey I waited all day on Sunday Rob!!!!

Is Kyrpto stronger than super man? Because if he’s like a dog just super powered and super man is a just a human with superpowers and a lot of dogs can beat/kill people could Kyrpto kill super man?
Just a Manatee well, I mean, Krypto killed The Kryptonite Man in Alan Moore's "Superman: Whatever Happened To The Man of Tomorrow?". Soooo, possibly?
Dogs can kill humans but... humans can and will kill dogs if it comes to it more often than not. Even the biggest & the strongest breeds.
Just a Manatee
He killed mongul
Bit him in the neck
As well as fought Atlas
He beat Atlas to a pulp. Atlas even kicked Superman's a$$.
@ThePitbullfan83 to be fair, Pitbulls were specially bred to be able to do that shit.
Superboy is Lex Luther and superman kid? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💀
Dark Light they had a Super Butt Baby
Gay
I can't believe elongated man bade it to the cover 3:23
Can you do Brightest Day
Hey Rob, can you make a video answering small questions that can't be streched into a whole video?
Thanks for you great vids my friend
Thank you. I was so confused on why it wasn't out and worried I'd have to wait until next week
7:48 just gonna ignore that
Rob, do Superheavy when you're done! Please!
I read this before final crisis so I didn't know how there was a black lantern Superman, this helped me out
That was pretty video that's nicely explained. And you didn't ignore pre-Crisis like other video channels do. You should do crisis conscience before infinite crisis amd convergence.
You should do Q&A about the blackest night run when it's over
Might be odd to say this, but Superman looks pretty cool in short sleeves
Conner Kent is my boy. This version needs to show up in rebirth and be a big bro to Jonathan Kent.
Hey Rob, any chance you could put together a list of comics to read to get the full full story for this line
That was a lot of kryptonians but the dog was best.
Lastly, whatever happened to the Man of Tomorrow seem to suggest the Post Crisis Superman is actually a different Superman from old Earth 1 one. More like a "rebooted version". The pre Crisis Superman grew old and called quits.
Of course, that story's canon...ness is contested.
We need this to be adapted into the DCEU
Rob! Please cover a VS of who would Win Red Hood Vs Winter Soldier the battle of Resurrected Sidekicks now Turned Badass Assassins!
Super exited !!! Hell ya! ROBCORE!
great video!
Hey Rob love your videos!! If you have not already read Gotham Resistance parts 1-3 Dark Nights metal tie ins the last part comes out this Wednesday and damn it is... its the best thing coming out of D.C. Rebirth right now
Hey Rob! Lovin' the stories you're picking out. Keep up the great work brother!
Worth the wait
Suddenly a thought about Zombie Superman.
5:54 What am I looking at? It seems to me that E2 Superman bopped SB Prime with the letters THOOOM. And it was super effective?
I want to see some type of epic cross over with The Flash and Green Lantern. The Black Flash gets Black Lantern ring maybe.
Reverse flash you mean or black racer.
Black racer is a new God. Doesn't need a black power ring
i think Benny's madness is starting to finally effect you.
My favourite black lantern...earth 2 superman!!!
How dare you deprive me of this for another day!!!!
Was wondering what happened to you Sunday!!
QUESTION FOR ROB : If it happens over the course of one night , then why do Dick Grayson & Damian say that they were going to fight the lanterns “tomorrow” after they tricked the lanterns with the freeze ray thingy ?
young justice
We didn't have to wait another week yes!!!! Best thing coming out of Rebirth
Thank God for Rob!!👊
Could you do the blackest night teen titans tie in with Terra , Lilith , & pantha coming back as black lanterns
Has Rob ever done a blackbolt video? With the inhumans tv show it seems interesting
