Especially everybody in Dick Grayson's generation that have bad things happening to them all the time and for no good reason?
@@manat31790 The word "hero" is from Greek, and basically just means "protagonist", but obviously that is not how the word is used in English. And especially not in American superhero comics. Campbell's hero's journey is about overcoming obstacles and learning. It has a beginning and an end. For superheroes that is not the case: Their origin stories get retconned, and their stories are expected to go on indefinitely. Not only can there be no hero's journey, there is also power creep. Superheroes can never be powerful enough, physics be damned. The most famous superhero in comics is without a doubt Asterix, who has superman strength and speed and endurance, but mostly relies on his cunning, because being invincible is one thing, but overcoming obstacles is quite another. But Asterix is not an American superhero. Outside of comics it would be Super Mario, until DC Comics and Marvel Comics jointly trademarked the term so Nintendo couldn't use it anymore. The most famous American superhero would be either Superman or Spiderman. The latter began as a parody of the former. They have the same colours, and both work for newspapers. The difference is that Spiderman does actual work for the paper and still can barely make rent, while nobody knows what Superman does, who made his home somewhere in Antarctica and often leaves the planet or even the universe for weeks. Superman began as a reporter with superhuman strength, speed, and durability, uncovering social injustices like the rent being too damn high, and meddling in the affairs of warmongers and rent sharks directly. But not for long. He had been retconned into being an illegal alien from a destroyed planet, under a red sun with stronger gravity, thus explaining how he is superhumanly strong, which led to secondary superpowers like being able to see through walls and shoot lasers from his eyes. Also, he can fly, breathe in space, and hear a dog whistle from four light years away and answer it in seconds. And also retroactively he is no longer the last survivor of his planet's destruction. Also, he's from Kansas. (Cory Doctorov's The Super Man And The Bug Out is a more realistic take on what life would be like for someone like Kal-El.) Because of the now defunct Comics Code, the heroes had to be law-abiding and morally upstanding, while criminals like the Beagle Boys were not allowed to be successful at anything, ever, and could also not be protagonists. This created numerous problems. For example, Batman is a vigilante, which makes him a criminal, and there are at least two theses about how Commissioner Gordon could not legally accept his help, no matter what clever tricks the writers came up with. It is also rather boring that the hero always wins and the villain always loses. The Last Action Hero made fun of that trope. For DC Comics, there was an out: Women and children, even superpowers ones, were not regarded as action heroes, and as such they could make mistakes, be wrong, and learn from that. Marvel split off to pursue a different route: Their ridiculously superpowered heroes started out from scratch, learning about their powers and their limits, and making mistakes along the way. They also addressed social issues that DC wouldn't touch anymore because it could offend part of their readership. (And then Dark Horse made comics where the villain of one series was the hero of another, which is why the Comics Code is defunct now. So DC's Main Man, Lobo, could finally get his own series, poking fun at every cliche and doing what the writers could not even mention before. Of course Marvel's Deadpool parodied that, like he parodied the Death Of Superman event (where Superman didn't die of course; he's not Fritz The Cat).) So in American superhero comics, you have the conservative DC Comics, which has superpowered humans acting like gods and the slightly less conservative Marvel Comics, which has veritable gods acting like people. Which is why I specifically said that the male superheroes of _DC Comics_ can't make mistakes to learn from. Those of Marvel can and do. In DC, only the villains, women, and children can. With Marvel, villains often become heroes. (Or vice versa, in the case of the Punisher.) You mention mini series. In DC, those are often the only stories where the heroes get to do a hero's journey. They are also never canon to the ongoing series. (This, too, is different with Marvel.) There is also Watchmen, which was a separate complete series deconstructing the superhero trope, and which was only later bought by DC. So to answer your question: Yes, I did read superhero comics, enough so to know that they have nothing to do with heroics. And that the villains are often the better people compared to the heroes. Just because your name is on the cover doesn't mean you are the Good Guy - it just means that you get away with it. Like every action hero, and like the most detestable Harry Callahan who was not meant to be a role model, but it's his name on the poster so people thought he was. Same with the protagonist from Falling Down, who even acknowledged that he is the Bad Guy and people still make excuses for him. There are many stories where the protagonist loses or dies, but because of the Comics Code - and the Hayes Code in Hollywood - the American audience doesn't expect that and focus groups don't accept it. And you are an example of that.

You can use villains to represent negative issues as a bad thing, the thing with Snowflame though is his powers are never shown hurting him in anyway. It's just pure advantage. He doesn't O.D., lose focus in a way that hurts him, or is portrayed as a loser for doing it. Bane at least suffers actual problems from when he used his steroid cocktail, but Snowflame doesn't even have those. The problem with him is cocaine makes him better in everyway instead of worse.
@@youtubestudiosucks978 Well, some people like Captain Cold and Captain Boomerang (why does Central City have so many fucking "Captains") have their own ways of just making SF not work or counter it. For Cold he has a generator now that just blankets him in "Slow Force" making all the air around him sub zero due to the atoms just not moving as fast and Boomerang just straight up has tanks of SF he uses for himself in short bursts.
Fool! I've just imbibed so much cocaine that I've cracked right through your silly speed force! I can feel the power of an uncountable number of universes vibrating in my teeth. There is nowhere you can run, and nowhere you can hide your wallet, you will give me twenty dollars or I will take it from someone you love. Do-not-underestimate me, Barry, I'm coming down and I haven't paid a single bill in two months.
Every character in this was perfectly depicted. Snowflame thinking he's absolutely awesome in his own thoughts while just going into convulsions in real life from an overdose. Superman, being such a boy scout, that he visits his enemy in the hospital. And Batman having to prove hes such a badass know it all by claimijg he knew all along that Snowflame had a cocaine capsule in his mouth.
Batman: "I knew he had that on him." Superman: "What are you trying to prove?" Batman: "I don't even know, Clark. This whole thing is messed up, and I think this way is my coping mechanism."
Superman: "Bruce, I'm gonna be straight with you; I don't need X-ray vision to see through that pile of bullsh*t. If you knew, you'd just slap him, open his mouth, take out the capsule and metaphorically shove it in 'Snowflame's' face to make yourself feel smart." Batman: "Clark, you HAVE X-ray vision and didn't bother to check IF he had more drugs on him, or IN him." Superman:....Thank you for once again reminding me for the 3rd time this week that you're a dick.
*Plot twist:* His super power is actually op, the caveat is that every time he uses it he creates two dimensions, one where he is the chad he imagined himself to be and the one where....well he's, "snow-flaming" about. (Also Superman's stuttering makes it seem like he's just an extremely good stage performer/magician)
His superpower actually IS unironically OP as fuck. He gains super strength, immunity to pain, pyrokinesis, and the ability to touch people and make them instantly high just from doing a rail of coke
@@chicolachowski5133okay, I know we were talking about a late silver-age villain, but I gotta hit the brakes and put my finger lightly on the bullshit button here, but uhh, Hunh? Please, expand on that bit about putting the God Squad in a pack?
"Every cell of my being burns with white-hot ecstasy. Cocaine is my God and I am the human instrument of its will!" -An actual line from Snowflame. Goes kinda hard ngl.
So according to the wiki Snowflame's religion is Cocaine worship and cocaine gives him: Superhuman Strength Superhuman Speed Immunity to Pain Pyrokinesis and Cocaine Touch all of that without drawback, the characters feel like he was made to sell cocaine.
One of Snowflame's powers in the comics, in addition to his super strength, speed, and pyrokinesis, was his "Cocaine Touch", the ability to give other people a cocaine high by touching them (which he used against Floronic Man). So, it probably wasn't the force of his punch that gave Superman a nosebleed.
@@sagecolvard9644 Snowflame didn’t actually hit Superman here. Superman got a nosebleed from being near him (Upon further inspection I think Snowflame did hit him because he’s holding his broken arm in a couple frames)
Snowflame, being the "Cocaine-Powered Supervillain", unironically had some of the best lines and art that any comic book character has had in a good while. The lines he said in this video aren't that far off from his debut, like "Cocaine is my god, and I am the instrument of its will". Some of his art genuinely went hard for a guy that gets powers from cocaine and who was meant to be an ANTI drug PSA, but only made doing drugs look awesome by comparison.
It’s funny how amiable Batman and Superman are with Snowflame. Genuinely trying to help the guy. Unfortunately no one keeps Snowflame from his cocaine.
For the record, Superman knew Snowflame has a hidden cocaine pill. And he still allowed this to happen, and also probably visited SF in hospital just because he knew this is going to happen
@@RockinRocketScience And well I know it!! Only, that doesn't make what Williams said any "less true," because having never been anywhere near "well healed," I still know from bitter personal experience, that having a "sh!t tonne of money" makes ANY addiction all the more easily handled and serviced.
I Mean He Was A Great Comedian But Seriously.... Robin Williams Once Said That!? The reason why I'm saying this is because he seemed like a Cool Dude with a family and everything.
Had no idea that was the case. Only just found out about snowflame through Solid JJs video lol. It's a hilarious take, but the taskmaster one is still my favorite lol
Lol I like how batman shows up. S: "Hey Batman. I got some lunatic that was wanting to fight me." B: "So another day then?" S: "Nah he just did some cocaine and is flailing here. Come check this shit out." B: "So he's been doing this since he took that little bit? I mean it took me 90 minutes to get here and I stopped at McDonald's even." That is how I imagine the conversation went until Batman showed up in person.
@@BrokenValentine-333 damn perfect opportunity for BK and not Micky Ds. Ah well. Maybe Bats got tired of BK. Or the BK in Metropolis sucks ass and decided on McDonalds.
"Please don't start a rumor like that." That line hit different coming from supes. Between his golden age powers, his run of the mill job and all the shades of kreptonite, he really can't afford more!
Especially the fact that Ultraman (his evil Earth-Three counterpart) literally *gains* his powers from snorting green kryptonite like cocaine and is *weak* to yellow sunlight because it breaks down the kryptonite in his system. Between his aversion to sunlight and doing rails of (green) blow, he's not just more '80s than Snowflame despite debuting during that era, he's the superpowered menace (this version of) Snowflame *thinks* he is when he gets high.
i still don't understand how they thought that a cocaine powered supervillain would help the anti drug message of the comic. He legit has no drawback, and he was the most memorable character of the New Guardians.
@@Bakuganluver23 i mean yeah but when you look up the real effects of cocaine on the body a simple addiction is basically nothing, especially when it gave him superpowers.
If I remember right, "Snowflame" is basically a second personality of the guy who uses the cocaine, so it's basically like suffering the after-effects of the drug for the sake of somebody else who gets the actual high.
@@bubbasbigblast8563I think that was in a fan made comic made during his initial resurgence in popularity. Snowflame doesn’t have an official civilian identity.
I like the idea that Snowflame is absolutely delusional and thinks he’s winning the fight, but in real life, Superman isn’t even scared, he’s just seeing Snowflame huffing and puffing and is just mildly concerned.
Ngl, Snowflame seems more of an Garth ennis parody of an existing hero, who instead of like needing Gamma ray to have powers just takes copious amounts of Drugs, and then I remembered that‘s just what The Boys are.
@@BlazingOwnager Unless he starts snorting v. In the boys comics there's an inhalant drug made from v called blue, it wouldn't surprise me if snowflame was able to make a powdered version of compound v.

It's not exactly clear how the spirit of the Green Goblin knew stuff only Norman could have known, but that's just comics lol.
i know Bruce Wayne is supposed to be proficient in science and all but its still hilarious to think about that he exactly knows just one hit of cocaine isn't supposed to make someone as high
@@Soul93Taker In the actual comic he's from he has super strength as well as the power to make other people experience a cocaine high by touching him. He was a complete failure of writing the anti drug message by accidentally writing the cocaine powered villain as objectively cooler than their heroes, but that wasn't a high bar given the new guardians were some of their worst protagonists and their comic series failed after a few issues.
@@Soul93TakerCocaine is *not* a deliriant, so it won't change what you see. It might make you feel like you can take on the world and numb the pain from breaking your hand during an attempt to punch through a solid concrete wall, but you will never think you managed to smash through a solid concrete wall unless you actually managed to do so, no matter how much Cocaine you consumed. So unless Snowflame took some Deliriant, like LSD or the Poison of a Datura, for example, whatever he sees actually happens.
@@hakasek4052Didn’t they have a homosexual vampire that had aids? The worst part is that I know that all of those things are real things they did but I don’t know if that was all one character or several different ones.
1:23 I just checked the citation and this is actually part of the joke: The New Guardians weren't destroyed. Rather, he only _nearly_ killed them, then in their second confrontation, Snowflame died in an exploding chemical shed. This was also his first and only pre-crisis appearance. Which implies that this was actually all a delusion to begin with. The fan wiki has nothing on his post-crisis appearances starting with Catwoman Volume 5 #23 BTW
New Guardians was a post-crisis book, as it spun out of the Millenium event two years after Crisis, and one year after Legends, the first pot-crisis event.
At first i only had suspicions it was Snowflame, the cocaine powered supervillain. But i got confirmation first hans that it was indeed Snowflame, the cocaine powered supervillain!
All along I heard rumblings about suspicions of this skeptical cocained snowflame, but after confirming with the confirmers that this snowflame is cocained, I can say that's definitely the cocaine powered anti hero Cocaine Snowflame!
Now I imagine a scene where Superman solves the city's drug problems by using his super breath in reverse to inhale all cocaine in the city and being unaffected by it, only for the other Leaguers and the cops to give him a talking to.
Why would they give him a talking to? What's the downside exactly? Besides lack of evidence to convict the drug dealers so there is nothing stopping them from getting more. oh But that did make me imagine that Superman solving a bunch of petty crimes on his way to work, where he just inhales the drugs could look super cool for a scene and if there are any drug combating powers or capabilities he has at his disposal. Imagine he just makes a scanner to find all the Drugs in Metropolis and it takes him an hour to stop it all in their tracks.
@@JakeSmith-mq5dc The optics of Superman snorting a whole lotta drugs. Also destruction of evidence and the like. Superman would very much be on your side while the other Leaguers would point out how it's a bad example for the kids to see Superman snorting coke.
“Another sacrifice on the alter of SPEED, and by speed I mean C O C A I N E” is already a good line but Huggbees’s delivery shot it into my top ten lines from these videos. And you know what else is in lines, cocai-

You can use villains to represent negative issues as a bad thing, the thing with Snowflame though is his powers are never shown hurting him in anyway. It's just pure advantage. He doesn't O.D., lose focus in a way that hurts him, or is portrayed as a loser for doing it. Bane at least suffers actual problems from when he used his steroid cocktail, but Snowflame doesn't even have those. The problem with him is cocaine makes him better in everyway instead of worse.

(Also Superman's stuttering makes it seem like he's just an extremely good stage performer/magician)

Honestly
Giving superman a small nosebleed while on cocaine is legitimately impressive
One of Snowflame's powers in the comics, in addition to his super strength, speed, and pyrokinesis, was his "Cocaine Touch", the ability to give other people a cocaine high by touching them (which he used against Floronic Man). So, it probably wasn't the force of his punch that gave Superman a nosebleed.
@@sagecolvard9644 Snowflame didn’t actually hit Superman here. Superman got a nosebleed from being near him

Snowflame, being the "Cocaine-Powered Supervillain", unironically had some of the best lines and art that any comic book character has had in a good while. The lines he said in this video aren't that far off from his debut, like "Cocaine is my god, and I am the instrument of its will". Some of his art genuinely went hard for a guy that gets powers from cocaine and who was meant to be an ANTI drug PSA, but only made doing drugs look awesome by comparison.
Pretty much. The fact that this gag is being played out *exactly* as a anti-drug PSA is even more hilarious in comparison.
Yeah that panel from cat woman was great
Also he’s respectful of his staff and is worried about them when they get attacked and even knows there names
I mean, he had a lot of lines, so some of them were meant to be good.
Supervillain* he is not a hero
VILLAIN. Snowflake was never a hero
It’s funny how amiable Batman and Superman are with Snowflame. Genuinely trying to help the guy. Unfortunately no one keeps Snowflame from his cocaine.
For the record, Superman knew Snowflame has a hidden cocaine pill. And he still allowed this to happen, and also probably visited SF in hospital just because he knew this is going to happen
@@Romashka_Sov That was Batman who knew, and it wasn't that deep. Why would he go to a hospital just to watch someone die? Don't overthink the joke.

Especially the fact that Ultraman (his evil Earth-Three counterpart) literally *gains* his powers from snorting green kryptonite like cocaine and is *weak* to yellow sunlight because it breaks down the kryptonite in his system.
Between his aversion to sunlight and doing rails of (green) blow, he's not just more '80s than Snowflame despite debuting during that era, he's the superpowered menace (this version of) Snowflame *thinks* he is when he gets high.

He legit has no drawback, and he was the most memorable character of the New Guardians.
Well, no drawback except his addiction to cocaine and possibly the coming down of it.
I mean being addicted IS the drawback. It's not very well conveyed, but that is what the drawback is.
@@Bakuganluver23 i mean yeah but when you look up the real effects of cocaine on the body a simple addiction is basically nothing, especially when it gave him superpowers.
If I remember right, "Snowflame" is basically a second personality of the guy who uses the cocaine, so it's basically like suffering the after-effects of the drug for the sake of somebody else who gets the actual high.
@@bubbasbigblast8563I think that was in a fan made comic made during his initial resurgence in popularity. Snowflame doesn’t have an official civilian identity.
I like the idea that Snowflame is absolutely delusional and thinks he’s winning the fight, but in real life, Superman isn’t even scared, he’s just seeing Snowflame huffing and puffing and is just mildly concerned.
Ngl, Snowflame seems more of an Garth ennis parody of an existing hero, who instead of like needing Gamma ray to have powers just takes copious amounts of Drugs, and then I remembered that‘s just what The Boys are.

Is he powerful or do we just see his drug induced hallucinations?
@@Soul93Taker In the actual comic he's from he has super strength as well as the power to make other people experience a cocaine high by touching him. He was a complete failure of writing the anti drug message by accidentally writing the cocaine powered villain as objectively cooler than their heroes, but that wasn't a high bar given the new guardians were some of their worst protagonists and their comic series failed after a few issues.
@@Soul93TakerCocaine is *not* a deliriant, so it won't change what you see. It might make you feel like you can take on the world and numb the pain from breaking your hand during an attempt to punch through a solid concrete wall, but you will never think you managed to smash through a solid concrete wall unless you actually managed to do so, no matter how much Cocaine you consumed.
So unless Snowflame took some Deliriant, like LSD or the Poison of a Datura, for example, whatever he sees actually happens.

hi herbert west
Out of all the characters I've believed to have been made up by SolidJJ, this one was the most shocking to find out actually existed.
1:23 I just checked the citation and this is actually part of the joke: The New Guardians weren't destroyed. Rather, he only _nearly_ killed them, then in their second confrontation, Snowflame died in an exploding chemical shed. This was also his first and only pre-crisis appearance. Which implies that this was actually all a delusion to begin with.
The fan wiki has nothing on his post-crisis appearances starting with Catwoman Volume 5 #23 BTW
Hugbees video has plenty of info on his first two official appearances. He even tangled with Peacemaker in the comics.
New Guardians was a post-crisis book, as it spun out of the Millenium event two years after Crisis, and one year after Legends, the first pot-crisis event.
Solid uses some form of actual lore in all his videos which is actually a neat detail
holy shit is that snowflame, the cocaine powered supervillain?
I was skeptical at first, but it is indeed Snowflame, the cocaine powered supervillian.
At first i only had suspicions it was Snowflame, the cocaine powered supervillain. But i got confirmation first hans that it was indeed Snowflame, the cocaine powered supervillain!
All along I heard rumblings about suspicions of this skeptical cocained snowflame, but after confirming with the confirmers that this snowflame is cocained, I can say that's definitely the cocaine powered anti hero Cocaine Snowflame!
I heard a rumour that superman doesn’t have any powers and he’s just been bluffing this whole time
Now I imagine a scene where Superman solves the city's drug problems by using his super breath in reverse to inhale all cocaine in the city and being unaffected by it, only for the other Leaguers and the cops to give him a talking to.
Why would they give him a talking to? What's the downside exactly? Besides lack of evidence to convict the drug dealers so there is nothing stopping them from getting more. oh
But that did make me imagine that Superman solving a bunch of petty crimes on his way to work, where he just inhales the drugs could look super cool for a scene and if there are any drug combating powers or capabilities he has at his disposal.
Imagine he just makes a scanner to find all the Drugs in Metropolis and it takes him an hour to stop it all in their tracks.
