Actually, Kirby intended and heavily implied the 3rd World were the Norse Gods. The Greek ones are not the Old Gods. This, too, has been established many times over the decades and even canon changes.
The Old Gods were basically the Norse gods, if you look at Kirby's concept art some of the old gods were clearly modelled after Thor and Odin, while the "Big Bad" of the Old Gods was a villain called "Lokee"
Jack Kirby's original idea was when he created Galactus he thought to himself that Galactus was a god and Silver Surfer is the fallen angel. In Kirby's interview on Harlan Ellisen interview documentary video, Kirby then mentioned that after leaving Marvel to DC comics he then wanted to create new characters: the New Gods. Intresting to learn in this video, i thought Eternals were created before the New Gods. Yet the similarities of these characters from New Gods to Eternals are alot of like, especially Kirby's style. Nice review.
Orion has been shown in many animated series by now..and I'm not sure but one of the animated series showed Orion's backstory and treaty between New Genesis and Apokolips
3:39 Really, they're more like the Celestials when you actually examine everything, but most of the time we see them are as avatars before New 52, so, in those instances they really are more like the eternals.

@@perkyharvester5182 watch out for DC Fandome on August 23.They have 1-2 secret movies to announce.I guess one of them might be New Gods another one might be zatana or batgirl.There might be change though bcoz of all the crazy dc news lately & bcoz of the snyder cut.Now zack will be telling the story of Darkseid.Ava DuVernay & comic book writer Tom king are still working on the script though.Tom even confirmed it a while back.So let's se what happens.
@@swift_lordyt6865 i know 😭😭 but hey at least Batgirl ,Zatanna & static shock are happening 😭. Marvel's Eternals might be the only thing we will get close to a New Gods film now 😐
Jack Kirby’s Fourth World was originally intended to be the rebooted world of Marvel’s Norse Gods after the destruction of Asgard during the Ragnarok event. That’s why I always thought the New Gods esthetically fit Marvel much better than DC. That’s because it was suppose to be apart of The Marvel Universe if Jack Kirby had never had his short falling out with Stan Lee And Marvel Comics. When Kirby came back to Marvel after he set up The Fourth World at DC, luckily he redeemed himself at Marvel by creating The Eternals.
OldSchool OldSchool I agree. On paper the entire concept of The Eternals sounds great but ends up falling a bit flat. The New Gods are much more interesting but I also haven’t read Neil Gaimans run on The Eternals. He’s a pretty great writer so I’m sure his take on The Eternals is interesting.
@@Seasonal-Shadow_4674 I think Jack Kirby’s Eternals holds up extremely well as far as the writing, art, and mythology is concerned. Kirby tried to come up with a streamlined mythology that not only fully explains the origins of the Marvel Universe but also as a way to explain all of our world’s individual cultural mythology, and all of the supernatural creatures that are found within it. He even goes as far as to breakdown and explain certain biblical characters, battles , and events, as well as explaining where supernatural creatures like vampires, werewolves etc, come from. It’s as if he took the Bible, Greek mythology, Roman mythology, Sumerian mythology, and Asian mythology and rolled it all into one.
Got 5 back issues of the NEW GODS from the 70s and a awesome team up with the FLASH from Super Team Family #15 some of these GODS are extremely powerful ✌
The externals would win even tho I don’t like marvel keep in mind the new gods are just called new god they may have god like powers but like he said in the video some of them cannot creat life and shit with a snap of a finger like the celestials plus they are still people who are twice or even more as strong as them in the dc universe
@@chrisacult Right so in Marvel and DC We have The Norse Gods and Greek Gods I'm just going to call them all the Old Gods because.... Why not The New Gods and The Eternals And The Celestials (AKA The Cosmic Gods) What dose that make Dr Manhattan?
I love this I love the new gods my favorite new gods are mister Miracle and Big Barda Darkseid orion all of them exactly are my favorites there just so awesome and I can’t wait to see the new gods movie when it comes out 😆
I just like to see Todd McFarlane make some more DC MULTIVERSE action figures of High Father, Orion, Granny Goodness, Big Barda, Mister Miracle, Grail the daughter of Darkseid, and Grayven the son of Darkseid.
That's the mystery of his character we don't know where he's from. He acts more as a watcher and advisor for both sides. He's really just there to see the whole conflict through.
Looks like eternals getting the first treatment in live action before the new gods. Hopefully, the directors can make them look different enough so that causal audiences can tell the difference and not complain. As we comics fans already knows who's who. 😁
With the CW Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover released, Can you do history of Pariah, Harbinger, Ryan Choi, Dr Destiny, Psycho Pirate, Monitor and Spectre?
DC/WB are BRAINDEAD for not bringing these ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC CHARACTERS to the big screen! A NEW GODS TRILOGY would be awesome, imagine a company like PIXAR doing a CGI movie of this story. I would love to see them take on such a challenge. Imagine something like the Incredibles but way more HARDCORE, DANGEROUS, and SERIOUS! It would be totally new territory for PIXAR but I truly believe they could do it! I'd also still like a LIVE ACTION MOVIE as well!

Played by either Michael Ironside or Tony Todd.

Josh Brolin.
Granny goodness scares the hell out of me.
There's nothing good about Granny! She's bad to the bone!
Yea, she is creepy, although her Galaxy Cookie's are the best.
All I can hear is Ed Asner's voice whenever I think of Granny. Damn DCAU. 🤣
Sup y'all
Kathy Bates should play her.

@The Oxymoron the anti monitor and darkside are just stronger then that metal
Good to see you reviewing these dc characters.
Yep
Can't wait for the new gods movie
Directed by Zack Snyder
I honestly could see George Lucas direct a New God’s Movie.

I haven't heard anything about new gods movies?
@@Ines-yf5kj they ended up canceling the movie the same year I commented this
@@ravenantoinette1325 what really? Tbh I'm kind of relieved because Warner and DC can't seem to get live action well and can never cast well.
I soooo remember when 'New Gods' and 'The Eternals' were each released. Thanks for the memories.
The real question is who are DC’s old gods😉
Greek gods
Pretty sure it's the Greek gods, so like Zeus, Ares, Hades, etc
Actually, Kirby intended and heavily implied the 3rd World were the Norse Gods. The Greek ones are not the Old Gods. This, too, has been established many times over the decades and even canon changes.
The Old Gods were basically the Norse gods, if you look at Kirby's concept art some of the old gods were clearly modelled after Thor and Odin, while the "Big Bad" of the Old Gods was a villain called "Lokee"
@@DCMarvelMultiverse
Maybe so, but at least in the New 52, the Greek gods were the Old Gods too. I like this explanation for their existence.
Jack Kirby's original idea was when he created Galactus he thought to himself that Galactus was a god and Silver Surfer is the fallen angel. In Kirby's interview on Harlan Ellisen interview documentary video, Kirby then mentioned that after leaving Marvel to DC comics he then wanted to create new characters: the New Gods.

Can’t wait for the movie. They’re some of my favorite comic characters.
Theoddballguy good luck with that director
Hairy Pancake I know I know the director sucks.
Ava Duvernay is a solid director though. I know A Wrinkle in Time wasn't the best but she's an excellent storyteller regardless.
aaaaaaand it’s canceled.
thanks WB CEO bitch
These characters are so great!
I love how u never stutters when speaking and u don't even do any cuts this is amazing yo
The New Gods was the only series I bought all the Issues and Variants of. Really good stuff.
Darkseid is just op
Just Some Guy without a Mustache agreed bro
Cough Yuga Khan
Yep
If you didn’t know about the Fourth World can you even call yourself a DC Comics fan
Orion has been shown in many animated series by now..and I'm not sure but one of the animated series showed Orion's backstory and treaty between New Genesis and Apokolips
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 quick episode. Variant should do a History of Darkseid episode. That would be amazing!
*New Gods exist*
Raiden: I must consult with the Elder Gods
Sounds like the premise for Mortal Kombat versus DC 2
Right lol
3:39
Really, they're more like the Celestials when you actually examine everything, but most of the time we see them are as avatars before New 52, so, in those instances they really are more like the eternals.
I really hope Duverney's New Gods film takes influences from Tom King's Mr Miracle run
Actually i believe they are co writing it
@@Dragonbornwarrior nice
He is co writing it.
What her movie really needs is to embrace Jack Kirby's aesthetic same way Waititi did it for the scenes in Sakaar of Thor Ragnarok.
I hope she intro all the news gods but keep it small
This was very helpful thanks 😁
Thanks for I needed a quick video for the backstory
I love dc comics they have so much to offer and iconic characters
@kyronlewis6975 how does Jack Kirby’s Mister Miracle run hold up??
It's about time you did this Video, I've been waiting forever for this.
Hey luv ur vids keep it up
Kathy Bates as Granny Goodness would be incredible
Congrats on almost reaching 2 million subscribers, hopefully you’ll get there soon. Hope your break was good too!
Hoping we see Steppenwolf's severed head on a pike in Darkseid's throne room. Neato cameo. :P
Alex Lemonds 😂😂i swear he’s Darkseids uncle tho

And it has happened
Dude. You called it.
Bro wtffff😂 predicted the future
Jack Kirby was obsessed with this "Chariots of the Gods" stuff. He created the New Gods for DC and also The Eternals for Marvel.
they are developing a movie on DC's New Gods at Warner's
They are?? Gotta see that trailer when it comes out!
Did they stop production? There hasn't been any news😭

Stan Lee's biggest mistake was taking Jack Kirby for granted
Been looking for something to watch all night 🙏🏻
I feel like the arrowverse is going to do new gods, because in the new flash ep 10 trailer they did mention something related to the new gods
Are we going to see the Highfather and the people of New Genesis help the Justice League fight against Darkseid in the DCEU?
The New Gods are Gods, but new. They go out, people shout.
I'd like an origin of Orion episode
I've heard he's a total beast
Unfortunately, they canceled the new gods movie
Do you think they will redo it? Or give it a different name?
@@Percattack the former
Josh Brolin should play Darkeid.
Great Video bro 👌👍
This also inspires the creation of star wars.
So, basically George Lucas was inspired by DC's New Gods?
Is there going to be a release date for DC New Gods movie in the DCEU and what is going to be the plot of that movie?
Granny Goodness reminds me of Killary Clinton
anyone's here?? after hearing wb cancels new gods :(

Hi Arris, We need Origin of The Celestials.
Do the batman movie breakdown and ur thoughts on how the batman movies cast are
My favorite New God is probably Scott Free, aka Mister Miracle.
Mister Miracle, Big Barda, Orion and Darkseid are all very interesting characters in their own right.
When are you going to do history of Darkseid? Is he going to be the big bad in the DCEU?
Good stuff.:)
What if the new gods fought the celestials? Or the eternals?
Very very VERY BAD THINGS for the entire universe.
What if they are all the same?
They don't sound so different
Same with The X Men and The Inhumans

Hey variant comics should put video of mother box box sentient, autonomous computer and other version of them
good ep.
That is awesome
Can you do history of War Machine and Rescue?
So the only question left is who is eatch of the New gods and what are they the god of?
The only ones whose roles I'm (fairly) certain about are Orion as the god of war and Darkseid as the god of evil.
They are not actual gods you'd imagine but more like god like beings with all human characteristics elevated to godly level they at evolutionary peak
Unlike the Marvel gods or the - occasionally mentioned - Olympians - the New Gods not really gods in the IRL mythological/spiritual sense.
It wouldn’t matter anyway because DC canceled The New Gods Movie that would’ve set in DCEU!
Can't wait to see the movie
Thank you Variant!
