That comic that Hickman did showing the pain and grief of Ben and the RIchards is arguably one of the most beautifully done comics ever. No words. But you felt every emotion in it.
Realizing I’m going to spend my Friday night watching a 2 1/2 UA-cam video of a guy narrating a comic book storyline and have absolutely no regrets doing it.
@@glyde69 I'd also recommend Shield (Apocalypse vs. The Brood)...I think secretly his x-men run start there and then picks up with House of X/Powers of X
I literally cried when you were talking about the fight with Ben Grimm or the compassionate fight with Ben Grimm, the Hulk and Thor in the aftermath of Johnny Storm’s death in the grieving process that it takes to go into eventually coping.
This was AMAZING to watch. I gotta say, Rob does an awesome job of putting all the stories together to give us the best possible story short of reading it all ourselves. You're a great storyteller, bro.
I watched this years ago, it had been at least a decade since I’d read a comic and this hooked me. I began watching all your videos and now I’m pushing 50 and read around 70-80 comic books a week. Thanks for bringing me back bro, I’ve spent the last few years catching up on what I missed since age 14 and I’ve expanded my horizons pertaining to what I read. Now I read everything. At 75 books a week you have to read everything. You should cover The Black Moon Chronicles, it was an enlightening experience if there ever was one. Phenomenal
this story, byrne run and the original jack kirby and stan lee run is the reason I love the fantastic 4. hickman run is a blast, I hope one day they can translate it to the big screen in a avengers scale type movie.
I really appreciate your work, Rob. It really does bring joy to a lot of people. After a stressful day I love to relax with a good story on your channel and I can only imagine that many other comic book fans (or anyone) with far bigger life troubles, those struggling with anxiety or depression, etc. benefit greatly from what you do. I bet your impact is huge and far bigger than what you may think. Thank you!
Hi rob. your fan from Trinidad and Tobago. love this long "comics explained ". I've been watching your youtube videos for about 4 years now. love the way you help me catch up on my marvel comics that I've missed over the years. I also thought that Mr Hickman 's run on the Fantastic Four was well worth the read. And glad that you can explain stuff that I've missed. Can I asked you to do a video on " Dark Reign ", in the Aveners.....Norman Osborn . I also loved the story of "Avengers Under Seige ",from the 1980 s . thanks buddy. ......blessings. .

Doom has been shown to become good, with him becoming Iron Man for a time and even coming to terms with his mother’s soul being in the hands of the devil. So stripping him of his free will, and any chance of redemption is wrong. Doing the right doesn’t mean it’s going to be the easiest or quickest, but we were given freewill for a reason.
I’d actually argue that the Doom of 616 should have been killed a long time ago. Doing good in the present doesn’t absolve you of your unpunished crimes in the past.
@@6thElementOfHipHop, that's what I don't get though. They aggressively turn any hostile Dooms into vegetables instead of just killing them. Why? Are they thinking that Doom would resurrect himself from the dead with his sorcery? That's actually it, probably.
THIS. This is the PERFECT way to build up the FF after they're introduced in the MCU and solidify their significance, not only in the history of the MCU, but as their status as the First Family of comics. Not to mention, it'll give Marvel a chance to really show off both the cosmic and multiversal side of the MCU (and just how powerful Franklin Richards can be)... also, it can tie-in Annihilation Wave as a 6 movie arc (like what they're doing with the Hulk's 3 movie arc right now) involving the Guardians of the Galaxy and Nova. This is still almost a decade away, though. Have to do that all-too-important world-building, after all.
here from the future when f4 is announced as an upcoming MCU project, and the multiversal destruction also looks like it’s happening with avengers 6 being secret wars but i guess we’ll see how marvel does it
Watched these videos back when you posted them individually and your passion got me fired up and I went out and collected Hickman's run. Even though I knew what was coming from the videos, the story still hits you so hard as you progress through it. Thanks Rob.
When I first discovered this channel I was laughing like wow this guy REALLY loves Hickman, but now it's his passion about his writing makes the story telling more endearing.
I love that I found this guy! Now work flys by and I get to listen to this guy narrate and explain comic book story’s I’ve never had a chance to read. 2 and a half hours of listening that I’m thoroughly enjoying thanks man!
Dude, you are literally the BEST at this game, long may you continue doing so. But is there any chance you can go over all your Full Story videos and explain them in the AWESOME way that you do these days. No disrespect to how you used to do it, but now you've got so much life and your own personal character into the explanations, that there are a load of Full Stories that I want to watch, but can't because they seem bland compared to how you do things now. Much love, brother.
Rob, I just want to thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Thanks to you, we have another means of escape and relaxation, along with discovering new corners of the Marvel Universe that we haven’t heard of before. So, thanks a million! Keep up the awesome vids!
Want to thank u Rob...i have never been a fantastic four fan but watching this then picked up vol 1-3 for myself i was blown away and love everything hickman!!!. Keep up the great content
Rob, thank you. This is my favourite story of the last 20 years. You do great work and help to showcase the great works of great storytellers and artists of the medium.
29:55 The first thing I couldn't help but think of (for SOME reason lol) was how boxers, mmartists, etc etc can have a tough time adjusting to "ring rust", aka their first fight or two back when returning from an injury, a suspension, etc etc... ...and the first thing Franklin Richards does, within like 2mins of getting his powers back, is manifest an entire POCKET DIMENSION under his covers lol. Like he's doing what normal kids do and sneaking a read of a book, or browsing their phone passed their bedtime, that sorta thing...except he's being a literal GOD. Absolutely bonkers. Franklin is truly frightening. Anytime the classic, "Marvel v.s. DC, who ya got?!" comes up and I hear someone choose DC I just auto-assume they're likely only a casual fan (or at most only a semi-devoted or old-school one) bc good LORD Marvel's reality-shapers are utterly OP. Owen Reese (pre-retcon after the Doom pep talk), Franklin Richards, & whatever #3 v.s. Manhattan, Supes 1,000,000 anddd...Idk, Batman w/ Supes 1mil. level prep time? Lol jokes aside, the outcome of that fight is fairly evident.
This is the 4th time I've watched/listened to this story and it get's me every time. The conclusion is AMAZING! I really hope the MCU include's some of the details from this story when they start their run of the Fantastic 4. Awesome job Rob!
Ive just got into DC (because of your channel) and ive got to say...out of any comic ive read, both DC and Marvel, green lantern is by far the best looking. I love the way they draw it
God I wish we got more Namor, underrated character to me. Also man Ben Grimm dealing with his anger by fighting Hulk and Thor who are willing to be there that was a touching moment and I had tears in my eyes, death of loved ones hits us hard and mam does it express itself so many ways.. great run of FF.
The mutants r very OP. Hving characters who can do literally anything, Franklin Richards, Matthew Malloy, Vulcan, Mr.M, Legion, Marquis of Death, Cassandra Nova, James Braddock, Hyperstorm, Jean Grey, Shaman Nate, MJJ, Iceman, Hope Summers, Selene Necrosha etc
yea they're OP as hell. kind of makes you think. If mutants were real I don't think they would be feared and hunted. well maybe feared. If beings like that existed they would most likely be feared and probably even worshiped as gods. They're living breathing walking weapons most are even WMD's. Think about it. Would you call someone a "fucking mutie!" if they can wipe you out without even breaking a sweat?
I really like this, in a way it's new content for people like me that miss some of that old informational storytelling you started with. Please keep mixing these in with the stories.
Dude I love the content that you are putting out! I just want you to know that UA-cam is hurting it by putting in commercials every two or three minutes. It's getting really hard to enjoy your content.
Been watching for years man I hate I just subscribed a year ago but man I literally tell people at work about rob lol then they come back and tell me they listen to a guy narrate for 3hrs and they love it 🤘🏾keep rockin rob
Watching this in 2021 maaan let me tell you somethin! I love Rob's old videos and they way he explains it! I'm currently at work while listening to this story fxxking epic! Much ❤ from London Rob long time fan since 2016! Peace!
I love these long form comic stories! I’m 4 years late but damn does this take out the pain of finding all the different issues in the larger stories. Thanks boss!
OH SHIT, THEY RICK AND MORTY DID RIP THIS OFF! THIS IS BASICALLY RICK'S BACKSTORY! He choose his family, and probably even though he did something tragic happened beyond his control
you are absolutely right Rob. Hickman finds a way to bring the characters to life in a way that is true to the characters. He honors them and the fans in his writing. Others authors get so caught up in what they want to write that they almost forget that we've gotten to know these characters over the course of the last 6 decades. Hickman shows me the characters as who I've known them to be so perfectly. No downside. I am far less likely to hope for changes with his stories.
Such a thick and well pieced story! These characters, especially Reed and Franklin, are so human on a basic level yet so vastly intelligent....ive really, REALLY enjoyed this arc. Franklin could be a fantastic villain if they so wrote him.
honestly I think of it as the one above all decided to at that point in time take on the form of jack Kirby, that much like the Christian god he has no distinct physical form, thus makes scence to make interaction easier with mortals would manifest in some form be it a person or a thing
if two reality warpers fought i feel like you wouldn't even know it happened as the stronger one would instantly wipe the other existence,you probably wouldn't even remember the weaker existing
Anime Battles HQ Not exactly, The person with the most creativity would win the reality warping fight, We've seen reality warpers with lesser raw power stalemate or defeat higher reality warpers with more raw power just because of there creativity.
Couple weeks ago, saw you're xmen/Hickman vids, next thing thing you know, I receive 3 of the books I ordered in the mail yesterday. The title of this vid says nothing of Hickman, thought was just a history vid. I sat through all 2 and a half hours and enjoyed every sec. Thank you for spending my money for me lol. Keep doing it
Love this channel, brah! I listen to pod-casts and just listen to this. I love learning and understanding more in depth and you help a lot man. The mix of TheComicBookHerald, You, ComiXology and Marvel Unlimited are my source.
What is the next video? It ends with Galactus coming to Earth and just stops..... Not a great way to end a 2 and a half hour video... I figured these videos were supposed to be the full story...
I know I'm later- but man...I've listened to Blackest Night, brightest day, Secret Wars etc and I'm just so grateful for what you do. I would have never been exposed to such incredibly exciting stories and your enthusiasm that just brings them to life. Thank you so much man.
I 100% agree we need the ending to this story aswell!

I just waited till Sunday morning coffee and smoke time. (He says Sunday afternoon after finishing)
hickman + some pineapple kush ftw
It all starts with Fantastic Four #570, and no question; this run is one of the very best of all time. I'm talking Claremont and Simonson good.
MrMike11233 fucking amazing run.. I’ve reread it three times already
Yup. Start with Fantastic 570 through Fantastic Four/FF, Avengers, Infinity, New Avengers, Avengers World, and Secret Wars.... best shit ever!
@@glyde69 I'd also recommend Shield (Apocalypse vs. The Brood)...I think secretly his x-men run start there and then picks up with House of X/Powers of X
Where do you recommend I start with ff comics? I have marvel unlimited
The part where Thor and Hulk allow Ben Grim to vent is one of the sweetest things ever.
That part almost gets me every time I see it

God, old Rob basically made ASMR videos for comics.
Hey man, sometimes you just gotta go to sleep with help
You know how Morgan freeman tends to play God?... Replace him with Rob. Rob needs to narrate everything, always.
If it was not for the completely random yet endearing chuckles and the constant ads it would be just perfect.

Hey Rob how long until we get a remastering of this story? It needs more of your excitement in it.

really would love an upbeat version
Read my mind
I actually like these it helps me sleep. not too over the top, you know? helped when I was homeless too.

Ahem…

I’m not
I’m
Well this guy is probably super happy now
So... the councils of ricks is a rip off of this story? Lol. Love it.

I immediately thought of the Rick's too... hilarious!!
Wubba lubba dub.... Whut?
Next you're gonna tell me Rick and Morty is a ripoff of Back to the Future or something...
I'll lose my mind if I see a Pickle Reed in this video
MCU FF is coming ! WE LOVE THE FIRST FAMILY!
Yes we do!
This comment didn’t age well…..
This story is the best video on your channel, and my favorite comic book story of all time.
Best Fantastic Four that ever was and ever will be.
2020 in a Corona Lockdown world right now.. And after watching all the movies and tv series, this channel is my last resort. Thanks Rob for making self Quarantine a bit more tolerable!

@@defb4dizhonor954 tldr?
Hickman has always stated public ally, that Byrne’s run on FF was a huge influence on his writing, and i always felt it showed in a very positive way.
My bro and I were talking about this while watching the vid! Couldn't agree more!
Doom has been shown to become good, with him becoming Iron Man for a time and even coming to terms with his mother’s soul being in the hands of the devil. So stripping him of his free will, and any chance of redemption is wrong. Doing the right doesn’t mean it’s going to be the easiest or quickest, but we were given freewill for a reason.
If u listen, he said: "each iteration of Doom, which had aspired to evil." Thus leaving out those like the one you mentioned. So, still cool bruh.
Hickman can do no wrong, didn't you know?
I’d actually argue that the Doom of 616 should have been killed a long time ago. Doing good in the present doesn’t absolve you of your unpunished crimes in the past.
Maybe we should just let Doom be the boss. Latveria is doing great.
@@6thElementOfHipHop, that's what I don't get though. They aggressively turn any hostile Dooms into vegetables instead of just killing them. Why? Are they thinking that Doom would resurrect himself from the dead with his sorcery? That's actually it, probably.
"Now, This next part I really want you to pay attention to." "Did I mention I love Jonathan Hickman??"
Wow a council of Rick's, I mean Reeds.
The Reeds came soo much early...
THIS. This is the PERFECT way to build up the FF after they're introduced in the MCU and solidify their significance, not only in the history of the MCU, but as their status as the First Family of comics. Not to mention, it'll give Marvel a chance to really show off both the cosmic and multiversal side of the MCU (and just how powerful Franklin Richards can be)... also, it can tie-in Annihilation Wave as a 6 movie arc (like what they're doing with the Hulk's 3 movie arc right now) involving the Guardians of the Galaxy and Nova. This is still almost a decade away, though. Have to do that all-too-important world-building, after all.
here from the future when f4 is announced as an upcoming MCU project, and the multiversal destruction also looks like it’s happening with avengers 6 being secret wars but i guess we’ll see how marvel does it
@@372userieuwuw we shall see indeed
Watched these videos back when you posted them individually and your passion got me fired up and I went out and collected Hickman's run. Even though I knew what was coming from the videos, the story still hits you so hard as you progress through it. Thanks Rob.
So glad you did this. One of the best runs in comics.
I've never read a comic in my life but every night the only way I can fall asleep is watching these long videos. True hero Rob.
Rob : 10% telling the story 90% talking about how much he loves Hickman 😂
This is why I love Hickman writing lol no disrespect Rob
When I first discovered this channel I was laughing like wow this guy REALLY loves Hickman, but now it's his passion about his writing makes the story telling more endearing.
He do be lovin the hicks
Yo LOVE him some Johnathan Hickman 😅😆👏🏿👏🏿
@@3031mane 💀💀Bruh! I find myself geeking out when I read his stuff too now
I love that I found this guy! Now work flys by and I get to listen to this guy narrate and explain comic book story’s I’ve never had a chance to read. 2 and a half hours of listening that I’m thoroughly enjoying thanks man!
Dude, you are literally the BEST at this game, long may you continue doing so. But is there any chance you can go over all your Full Story videos and explain them in the AWESOME way that you do these days. No disrespect to how you used to do it, but now you've got so much life and your own personal character into the explanations, that there are a load of Full Stories that I want to watch, but can't because they seem bland compared to how you do things now. Much love, brother.
Rob, I just want to thank you for taking the time to make these videos.
Thanks to you, we have another means of escape and relaxation, along with discovering new corners of the Marvel Universe that we haven’t heard of before.
So, thanks a million! Keep up the awesome vids!
I’ve never heard Rob speak in a video so calmly before...
Want to thank u Rob...i have never been a fantastic four fan but watching this then picked up vol 1-3 for myself i was blown away and love everything hickman!!!. Keep up the great content
Rob, thank you. This is my favourite story of the last 20 years. You do great work and help to showcase the great works of great storytellers and artists of the medium.
29:55
The first thing I couldn't help but think of (for SOME reason lol) was how boxers, mmartists, etc etc can have a tough time adjusting to "ring rust", aka their first fight or two back when returning from an injury, a suspension, etc etc...
...and the first thing Franklin Richards does, within like 2mins of getting his powers back, is manifest an entire POCKET DIMENSION under his covers lol. Like he's doing what normal kids do and sneaking a read of a book, or browsing their phone passed their bedtime, that sorta thing...except he's being a literal GOD.
Absolutely bonkers. Franklin is truly frightening. Anytime the classic, "Marvel v.s. DC, who ya got?!" comes up and I hear someone choose DC I just auto-assume they're likely only a casual fan (or at most only a semi-devoted or old-school one) bc good LORD Marvel's reality-shapers are utterly OP.
Owen Reese (pre-retcon after the Doom pep talk), Franklin Richards, & whatever #3 v.s. Manhattan, Supes 1,000,000 anddd...Idk, Batman w/ Supes 1mil. level prep time?
Lol jokes aside, the outcome of that fight is fairly evident.
you gotta do claremont's entire uncanny x-men history. it was like a golden era of writing. best.stories.ever.
claremont 4 prez
#Claremont2020
Best quarantine playlist there is!!!!!!!! 🙌🏾
Old school Rob narrative FTW!
Glad I'm not the only one.
This is the 4th time I've watched/listened to this story and it get's me every time. The conclusion is AMAZING! I really hope the MCU include's some of the details from this story when they start their run of the Fantastic 4. Awesome job Rob!
Every time Rob says "what I want to do here" I get weak.
Ive just got into DC (because of your channel) and ive got to say...out of any comic ive read, both DC and Marvel, green lantern is by far the best looking. I love the way they draw it
28:25 "But then the fire nation attacked"
Im not complaining. Just Rob says "Its the best story." Rob just makes stories so much better.
God I wish we got more Namor, underrated character to me. Also man Ben Grimm dealing with his anger by fighting Hulk and Thor who are willing to be there that was a touching moment and I had tears in my eyes, death of loved ones hits us hard and mam does it express itself so many ways.. great run of FF.
Man I watch this so many times and when Johnny dies it still give me chills years later
Coming straight from House/Powers, Hickman's usage of lore for each character he writes is dope af.
He got me back Into comics. His comics
We need an ultimate video of Hickman's marvel saga. Starting with secret warriors, then FF, Avengers/new avengers, and secret wars
The mutants r very OP. Hving characters who can do literally anything, Franklin Richards, Matthew Malloy, Vulcan, Mr.M, Legion, Marquis of Death, Cassandra Nova, James Braddock, Hyperstorm, Jean Grey, Shaman Nate, MJJ, Iceman, Hope Summers, Selene Necrosha etc
yea they're OP as hell. kind of makes you think. If mutants were real I don't think they would be feared and hunted. well maybe feared. If beings like that existed they would most likely be feared and probably even worshiped as gods. They're living breathing walking weapons most are even WMD's. Think about it. Would you call someone a "fucking mutie!" if they can wipe you out without even breaking a sweat?
I really like this, in a way it's new content for people like me that miss some of that old informational storytelling you started with. Please keep mixing these in with the stories.
Lol, you can make a drinking game out of how many times Rob says "How important a detail is." XD
Good work Rob. Can't believe I just listened to you for 2.5hrs.
Your explaining of comics is amazingly in depth great job my dude
Dude you should totally have a cable tv, or NETFLIX program.
Hickman's run on FF was spectacular. His Avengers and Ultimates were also some of the greatest comics ever made.
One of the best comics run ever! He took elements from the entire FF history and combined them in a new way. Genious!
Dude I love the content that you are putting out! I just want you to know that UA-cam is hurting it by putting in commercials every two or three minutes. It's getting really hard to enjoy your content.
Hi Rob. Not sure if this is intentional or not but this is missing the final chapter, "The Fanatic Four Conclusion: The Power of Franklin Richards".
yea he got another video for that one, you just gotta look for it
Your new videos are so much better! Much more emotion and excitement. Love your videos.
Damn bro those commercials are ridiculous! Love ya bro but wholly hell my man. Robcore has to endure
Dude!!! You are awesome, and thank you so much for doing these kinds of vids. My wife listens to audio books, and now I listen to comic books. 😀
Wait.. Full story? I just watched 2.5 hours and you leave off when galactus arrives. Wtf?
Yeah, WTH
Spoiler alert dude, thanks.
Where’s the end
@@SkillzAreEpic Why would you read the comments before finishing the video? Did you know the comments are almost always ABOUT the video?
Check his catalogue, he made a separate video for the ending.
Spider-Man makes a good grief counsellor after all. Real dad material
I've seen this in Graphic novel format.
I need to have this!
Been watching for years man I hate I just subscribed a year ago but man I literally tell people at work about rob lol then they come back and tell me they listen to a guy narrate for 3hrs and they love it 🤘🏾keep rockin rob
Thank you!! You’re doing God Doom’s work
Watching this in 2021 maaan let me tell you somethin! I love Rob's old videos and they way he explains it! I'm currently at work while listening to this story fxxking epic! Much ❤ from London Rob long time fan since 2016! Peace!
When Ben was fighting Hulk and Thor, I cried.
I love these long form comic stories! I’m 4 years late but damn does this take out the pain of finding all the different issues in the larger stories. Thanks boss!
OH SHIT, THEY RICK AND MORTY DID RIP THIS OFF! THIS IS BASICALLY RICK'S BACKSTORY! He choose his family, and probably even though he did something tragic happened beyond his control
Yeah Rick is basically a grumpy drunk Reed
Really great to have it all collected man!
Does this seem like the old Rob? The way he talks seems way less casual and cool than usual
Royce Hamm because it's a compilation of his FF videos which means some may be from before he changed to his new style.
Compilation ... hes probably re doing these stories
Dammit Rob! You went and educated me, showed me what I was missing out on and made me into a Hickman fan! Great job!
1:13:07
Omg, they actually put in a reference to Avatar, lmao.
you are absolutely right Rob. Hickman finds a way to bring the characters to life in a way that is true to the characters. He honors them and the fans in his writing. Others authors get so caught up in what they want to write that they almost forget that we've gotten to know these characters over the course of the last 6 decades. Hickman shows me the characters as who I've known them to be so perfectly. No downside. I am far less likely to hope for changes with his stories.
Such a thick and well pieced story! These characters, especially Reed and Franklin, are so human on a basic level yet so vastly intelligent....ive really, REALLY enjoyed this arc. Franklin could be a fantastic villain if they so wrote him.
I remember when you first uploaded these. I love me some old Rob, the classic "So what I want to do here is..." line, all the old goodness :D
"In the bedroom of his room" 30:00.
man i sooo appreciate yours and Bennys (comicstorian) work i really love these full stories thnx and keep it up
honestly I think of it as the one above all decided to at that point in time take on the form of jack Kirby, that much like the Christian god he has no distinct physical form, thus makes scence to make interaction easier with mortals would manifest in some form be it a person or a thing
This is the best comic book run and you have the best explanation of it. But this is a 2 hour video. You need to put more reminders to like and share.
Does anyone know where to find the next part of this story? Ie after the distress signal was sent to galactus...
thats what im sayin
don't know what else to say except that this is totally EPIC!
Wait! The title said it was the "Full Story". We have been fooled! ITS A TRAP!
I know. I came to the end of the video and was thought my internet screwed up and it was ending the video before I got to the actual end.
Andy Ford Technically, it's the full story as Rob put out in his video series, but that sarcasm though!👍
No it's not...he made a separate video for the ending.
Andy Ford admiral ackbar liked your comment
@@xxTHExxABYSSxx where is it? I can't find it.
The GREATEST run by ANY writer in comic history!!!
WHEN Marvel Studios/Disney gets FF back, they HAVE TO hire Hickman to write the story and help on the script.
Where can i find the continuation of this please
My favorite vid on UA-cam. Thanks for making the complete one!
Okay rob question if two reality warper were to fight would it be something like dragon ball z or would it be in a blink of a eye ?
Jacob Valentine
All it takes is for one to be weaker than the other and then the stronger one would just turn the other into a tree.
if two reality warpers fought i feel like you wouldn't even know it happened as the stronger one would instantly wipe the other existence,you probably wouldn't even remember the weaker existing
Anime Battles HQ Not exactly, The person with the most creativity would win the reality warping fight, We've seen reality warpers with lesser raw power stalemate or defeat higher reality warpers with more raw power just because of there creativity.
CHEESE BURGER FREDDY
So it's more or less like a fight between two broken Green Lanterns?
Anime Battles HQ Pretty much
Couple weeks ago, saw you're xmen/Hickman vids, next thing thing you know, I receive 3 of the books I ordered in the mail yesterday. The title of this vid says nothing of Hickman, thought was just a history vid. I sat through all 2 and a half hours and enjoyed every sec. Thank you for spending my money for me lol. Keep doing it
#HickmanIsGod
Oh, and damn u Rob for cliffhangers! 😂
world be damned, doom endures. one of the best lines ever
This isn't actually the full story. I'm guessing whoever edited the video forgot about the last video.
Go check his catalogue, he made a video of the ending....Jeez.
Love this channel, brah! I listen to pod-casts and just listen to this. I love learning and understanding more in depth and you help a lot man. The mix of TheComicBookHerald, You, ComiXology and Marvel Unlimited are my source.
Compile the Avengers + New Avengers “Time Runs Out” story
Wow I felt that when hulk and thor let Ben get his grief and anger out that heart warming
What is the next video? It ends with Galactus coming to Earth and just stops..... Not a great way to end a 2 and a half hour video... I figured these videos were supposed to be the full story...
U. Wernt paying attention 😊
Thank you for you channel and videos, not thrilled with a commercial every 2 1/2 minutes but worth it.
what’s after this story?
Ong tho
Secret Wars
