Chaos War Herc is pretty op for literally boxing a being that ate 98% of the Marvel Multiverse
Supposed to be 98% of the multiverse but so many verses were missing that it seemed to be a just 2 universes at best that were devoured.
Nathan Alexandre what
@@BigRedOmegaInTheDesert does it mean he also killed rune king thor?
Hey! You responded to me in a derogatory manner! Why did you do that?
8 the Marvel Multiverse or 9?
I wonder if "Knull" is an aspect of "Oblivion" and the "Chaos King".
Shoutout to "Gorr the God Butcher" for also killing gods.
Knull?isn't he the symbiote king?
@@yaboiplank6764 Knull existed before the universe was created.
@@BritishTeaFGC everything was created out of nothing and to nothing everything shall go back
Meaning,Oblivion
@@yaboiplank6764 but not the literal nothing
@@yaboiplank6764 Yes, but he is also kind of the primordial void as well. It sounds like Chaos King is occupying the exact same space in the cosmology, which is pretty weird.
Why can't we get a mini-series of Herc and Thor going on a quest and just being awesome bros?
Rexus Mundi
Him, Thor, and Hulk becoming professor hulk early stages. So they try out his whacky plans and smash people with their big muscles.
They don’t get along.
I mean, If wolverine can have a *relationship* with Hercules, Why not.
@@fumarc4501 Man. If wolverine can, Thor can.
@@fumarc4501 what on Earth are you talking about I've only ever seen them getting along, and publication series you could recommend where they don't?
"You don't need to worry about the Atlas Foundation, they suck" 🤣
Can you remind me who they are? (I forgot who they are)
Bro i swear the best line in the video
Came here to see if anyone already wrote this 🤣🤣
The purpose of the story is to explain how Hercules took Zeus's place...& Athena is secretly nuts.
My problem with it is Thor is from Norse mythology and Zeus is from Greek mythos. Otherwise, good story!
There’s an image of satan hugging his son before sacrificing himself to protect others.... nice
yeah. . . that is a thing that exists now huh
It makes no sense at all and never will but it exists now apparently
People: "Why the Living Tribunal doesn't show up?!"
Ryan: "So the story can happen :)"
SMV L the living tribunal maintains magical balance not universal. The chaos king wasnt affecting magic in the universe so technically speaking he shouldnt be summoned for this.
J Living Tribunal: Social Distancing duhh
People: Your a cosmic entity?
Covid- 19: I’m inevitable
Then Hickman comes in with a bunch of aliens that body the Living Tribunal.
Chaos king was created by oblivion and oblivion is above the tribunals judgment so it’s possible his creations are as well
Maybe the LT was still seeking guidance from TOAA. LT is powerful, but Chaos King is the aspect of Oblivion(0.01% of Oblivion's true power). The LT could just wipe out Mikaboshi but i think he would still come back. Thats whye the LT maybe just sat on his couch watching it all happen on his 70 inch flat screen tv with popcorn.
Damn it man! Now I’m never going to be able to see Galactus hanging silently out in space without thinking he’s got the theme to The Greatest American Hero or Charles in Charge going on in his head 😂
Perhaps chaos king was personally inside Zeus, then protected him from Galactus' attack. When Hercules attacked he could have just let the blow happen, to get him to open the portal to that God realm.
Greg Pak said that Zeus used his own power against Galactus
“Everybody asking where’s the living tribunal” he probably on his recliner and watching the golden girls I can hear it now..Thank u for being a friiiiiiiiiiend🎵😂😂
Down the road and back again 🎶
The Living Plot Device 📖✍️💥
There is a Valhalla in Greek mythology its called the Elysian Fields
Ollie Garcia isn’t that a place where gods abs heroes go
There’s another one called the isle of blest/blessed where heroes and demigods who reincarnated three times and three times achieved elysian go
Also there's a select few who were taken to Olympus if I remember correctly, the only one I can remember was herakles
You miss the point entirely. It's "the hero's journey" set to an interdimensional epic. In the end, the rest of the story is backdrop for the singular hero's story arc. At least that's my interpretation.
Yes quite true.. Although.. The hero's journey is represented in the story's arc. Thus its a package deal for the story. One is a representation of ones own lessons in learning. Each to their own. ~_~
It's not even subtle. Cho was literally reading 'a hero's journey ' during Incredible Thorcules.
I think at the end of the day, these events have a message for the reader. Continuity is retcon'd all the time so what does any outcome matter in anything comics related? The final panels wherein Herc establishes himself as a hero is pretty worthwhile in and of itself. Maturation comes in many ways and takes many forms and sometimes when it happens nobody sees and even more so you could very well find yourself back at square one after the fact. Regardless, it's almost kinda relatable
He says there was no real purpose for this story since things went back to how they were. But maybe the point was to show just how bad things could go. How close it could come to everything going out forever. Thanos with the Infinite Gauntlet has been seen as the end, but really it was an end to much of life, but not of reality itself. The threat posed by oblivion, not the cosmic entity per say, but the literal end of all things, is what was shown in this story.
"There's this being out there and he's REALLY popular." - Rob's Hercules
Chaos King didn’t die, he was Banished but was satisfied there.
Yeah I was thinking a powerful being like that shouldn't be able to die just by being thrown in the Void. And he did want it to be just darkness and well...Hercules and the other heros granted him that. I'm glad he's content where he is.
Eternal Sentry He was put in a place where he would be forever fed it was a plot end, but hardly a defeat more like giving Galactus another planet to eat to spare Earth😂
@@thekingant2726 Yep, makes sense.
Phantom stranger needs explaining. I know I sound like a broken record for requesting this constantly. But please rob? He needs explaining
I'd also agree
Yes please
The equivalent of Valhalla for Greek mythos is a split of the fields of Elysium and for demigods specially chosen by the gods they go to Olympus as demigods
Lmfao!!!! Golden and Goof Troop references!!!! Sooo great! Those theme songs!!! ‘Thank you for being a friend...”
Pretty sure in Greek mythology their "Heaven" is in Hades as well. Hades is just the afterlife period, with different sections.
Elysium, land of heroes.
It wasn't. Elysium was only put into hades in Virgil, Aeneid, Book VI.The entire religion before then had it as a seperate place - don't take all your real world facts from games mate, or at least check before talking shite :)
@@LennyDeee Actually, learned that on Hercules the T.V. show staring Kevin James, mate.
@@alexander-prime492 That's my point. if you couldn't get a better education than TV I'm really sorry, but you 100% should be reading and not typing xD
@@LennyDeee What exact date should mythologic stories be cut off from growing their own lore?
... ARE YOU *BLIND!?*
~ Galactus to chaos king.... What a badass 😂
08:12 Is that the true Satan? Based on what he said: "Heaven knows I wanted a bigger piece of the pie in my day", I guess he is. He also seems more powerful than Mephisto.
ElementStar isn’t Mephisto basically satan in the marvel universe?
Yeah it could be biblical satan and that would be the father and Damien but the hell lords are dormammu hela Mephisto and that satan there are the other two but Idk what their names are
@@incarnate478 No not at all. There are a lot of demons that claim to be Satan in Marvel but none of them really are and none of the demons (mephisto Satannish, Dormammu, etc) even know if Satan ever existed. The closest thing we got is Lucifer who is basically Biblical Satan in the fact that Lucifer (in both the Bible and in Marvel) led a rebellion against God and was cast out of Heaven.
@@carteralexander3671 so Damien Hellstrom aka Son of Satan is not...really the Son of Satan. He received his powers through a demon who claimed to be Satan but wasn’t Satan at all. As I said in my last comment, a ton of demons love to refer to themselves as Satan because he’s the cool dude.
@@DuckGoDuckRun Thanks for making it clear for me : )
54 secs ago?! Hi rob thanks for all the good content. You taught me like 50% of the comic knowledge that I’ve obtained over the years
Agreed theirs a lot anyone could miss thankfully we have( @Rob )here to be the bad ass to catch us up to date xD
“Gorr the God Butcher vs The Chaos King” would be a cool video
Elder Jaxon
Gorr at the end of the universe maybe.
silly question
Marquis of death vs chaos king*
@@gotdatazz123 Gotta go with MoD.
@god of war Hi Kratos
I think Rob is spot on in his final analysis. The stakes are equal to Secret War but not nearly as epic, so it just feels overblown with no narrative purpose.
I’m still on Dark Knight Metal (Full Story) and that’s over 4 hours.
chaos kings not gone just diminished like Hercules was
going super saiyan always leaves you drained afterwards
You touched on the exact issue I thought of after Jane Foster sacrificed herself. The sacrifice became pointless, the battle with cancer became the same, because they just briught her back immediately. Any investment in comic books is marred by the fact that no one truly dies, and everyone can just be brought back, and that is why their big stories fail, because we know there's no consequence for anything. Even when they're imprisoned they simply escape. Comic books kill any emotional attachment because at the end of the day, nothing happened. Nobody loses anythimg and that's crappy story telling no matter how good the concept may be. I suggest they emulate anime. And let stuff end.
I know I'm super late to your comment and this video but I'm glad someone says it. I love a good chunk of these characters and I like superhero comics alot but after a while these sort of things just feel meaningless since they in essence eventually just go back to the same way as they began. I'd like something like marvel ultimates again, where for the most part, events were concrete and when people died they stayed dead.
Chaos King is, like, so popular. Everyone wants to go to the prom with him.
You made me watch all three of the other videos just to end up releasing this a week later!! BAH!!! Love the content brother, keep it up
Chaos war, where hercules got roasted by all the marvel universe, then he made his epic battle cry, then 5 minutes later all of the heroes he assembled got owned lol
Chaos king showed up and said I want all the smoke
Does nobody realize the ultimate nullifier is a thing? 😰
Actually it can kill the living tribunal
Which is many times more powerful than him
It specifically has the power to destroy anything it’s used on, and yes that does include cosmic beings like galactus, order and chaos, the living tribunal, the embodiment of the universe (who I forgot the name of), and by extension, the chaos king
Like TLT the nullifier has been overused and should only be used when the writer writes himself into a box. But yeah, it can create or destroy multiverses and timelines as well as multiversal embodiments. Herc needed his time to shine and not be a complete idiot, so... that's what we got.
The Chaos King is basically the marvel equivalent to The Scarlet King from the SCP series
Yep
And of the Anti-Monitor from DC
Athena waiting for darkness... Second life ranker intensifies
@10:24😂😂😂🤣 is what keeps me staying in tune with your videos..
Comic book art is so under rated
The golden girls/goof troop tangent made my day
I'd love for them to make Cthon & Knull entities that formed from two halves that make up the Chaos King/Oblivion
Would make for a great threat going forward aswell as giving both characters a meaningful & long lasting position within the cosmology of the MCU
I liked chaos war. One of the best parts is it came out the same time as the cosmic. Heros had their cancer verse story so elements such as the deathless sleep and dead heroes rising in Chaos War added to the stakes of the assault on death in the cancerverse storyline.
Bruhhhhh I’m on workers comp I’m goin back Watchin all yo old content thank you for being a friend 😂💯
Bruh we need gorr the god butcher and chaos king to team up
Meh. That'd be too much. Living Tribunal or the ultimate nullifier would have to be employed and bleh, who wants that.
I don’t not think so it’s impossible but that’s cool 😎 theory
Ultimate nullifier wouldn't work, Mikaboshi is nothingness
Thanks for these videos, Rob. I was into comics in the 90s but I was too young to pay for the habit. So it's nice to learn about all these stories Ive missed out on in the last 20+ years.
Normal people: Venus inspired them by singing? Cool I guess
My d&d goblin brain: VenUs IS a BARD
Damn, was kinda hoping the Chaos King would win.
Same. Or at least have Herc go with Athena's idea. Let Chaos win so the multiverse can restart with Hercules in charge. He's an idiot but at least he's a sweet idiot who won't play chinese checkers with the skyfathers all day. No reason why he couldn't have pulled a Franklin Richards and just brought everyone and everything back to life if he wanted anyhow.
Homie gets summoned then says nah I’m good y’all got this 🤣
Chaos king meeting carnage would be sick
The irony of needing the order of an army in order to enact chaos.
A couple of minutes in.....and this story is already awesome
Hey the chaos king were never destroyed! they created a pocket dimension to make him believe that he actually consumes everything. In that dimension he won. He's not destroyed and hes just out there. BTW new subs
Damn really thats cool who created that pocket dimension

Take a shot every time Rob uses the word "Basically" lol
This is why comics are declining so hard. I’m just gonna ignore the rules of a comic-verse so I can write my story. NO. Your story doesn’t work if the rule sets of the universe can stop it. Tribunal doesn’t show up because ... um... I don’t want him to. Makes me not even interested in this story.
It's because magic isn't involved
Tribunal, also The Inbetweener. Speaking of, Silver Surfer kicks so much ass in one little spot and they don’t really do him justice.
@@StoneCorazon The Chaos King would destroy them
Rob's not completely correct about that dude. Like in this instance... The tribunal might not care. Because there are aspects of the Multiverse in which things like the nothing void before existence doesn't have an incarnation. So it wouldn't matter to him a whole lot if all the ones were it does were obliterated to nothing. And if it did... And he was who can handle it, he would just do it before it got to that point but not as it obliterated ours necessarily
So it makes the story suck bc tribunal didn’t show up
Dude the golden girls and goof troop refrences hahahaha love ya rob
“This has never happened…summoning Eternity” - Thanos and Marquis of Death: Are we jokes to you?
Thank you for explaining this wonderful story. I love the Hero's journey.
28:49 "He a *Dummy* " lol
😆 🤣 😂 "you don't need to know about the Atlas foundation. They suck."
Ijs given the fact that Living Tribunal and Eternity is supposed to be in the same bracket Means that Chaos King wouldnt have been a easy run for LT Since Eternity said he was his other Half
A couple years ago u mentioned chaos king in conjunction with some other marvel story, something about a sword? Idk maybe im thinking about venoms king symbiot god killer sword or whatever but it piqued my interest. I didn't care one way or another but now that its here im glad you did. Ty
When her stops time:
ZAWARUDO
MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUUUDAA
Bro all ur videos are kick ass
I actually did find the pay off to be worth it. A happy ending for all. Comics, movies and TV shows these days are all about doom and gloom and shock value.
I’ve had enough of the negativities. A happy end for a story shouldn’t be a bad thing.
Imagine Chaos King made Gorr, the God Butcher, his own herald
carl charleston
They’d get along quite well
@@ZealStarMedia i dont know Gorr hated anything that called itself god or calls him a god. I could see gorr trying to kill knull or the chaos king.
steve owensby
Knull maybe, but Chaos king didn’t really consider himself a god, more a force of nature.
@@ZealStarMedia when he was going by Mikibusa (spelling?) The God Eater or whatever it was before and during secret invasion when hercules lead the god squad against the gods of the skrull he did consider himself to be a god of japanese origin (could be wrong on that last part its been awhile since i read that arc) didnt he?
steve owensby
Maybe, I just thought that they claimed he was knows in Japanese folklore as the god of caos, though I suppose what really matters is Gorrs point of view, as he didn’t view himself a god.
what if:
Chaos King absorbs Strange visitor superman AND onslaught
If you absorb strange to living tribunal will see it as a magic threat and step in
am sure hes not dead but just locked away,at some point he'll find a way out of that bubble universe. .
U have some dope content👍
Dude, GOOF TROOP!! You're the man Rob.
P.s. Throw me one-a-doze rings? Ha
Eternity was summoned by Galactus and the Watcher during the trail of Reed Richards.
Yeah Rob you're not quite right about the Living Tribunal. Like in Marvel's Cosmic titles he used to show up all the time as just kind of not so much a plot device but more like... A narrator.
He used to just kind of be the narrator deliverer of exposition it a lot of stories. Like I remember reading a Silver Surfer comic in the 90s where he took some alien on a tour of the inside of a Celestial. And for like no reason really. That was just what that story was about, it was like hey what are the inner workings of a Celestial like? It went nowhere.
30:37 - Chaos King has a LEGO piece on his shoulder. (Easter Egg?)
Love watching these. Got me hooked
Yeah that comic strip with satan comforting his son was heartfelt
Killer Mike: kill your master's
Chaos King: say less
18:42
Hercules:
Eternity: "Boooi you've got about 3 seconds before I start beating cheeks!" 😤😡
Hercules: 🥺
Eternity: "A'ight, imma head out. Glhf, kid."✌😎
Hercules and Thor: 😐😑
You would think storm,black panther, moon knight, doctor strange, brother voodoo, etc. you would think that they would not fall asleep because they are a god or connected to a God or gods
Golden girls sing it bro 🤣👌🏾
😆😆🤣😂
Thanks for doing this video ! Helps explain a bit !
"pray"-ludes
I had to say this. The hero in this comic is not Hercules or the other gods. This comic is about how the solution came from a human.
Hi you right 👍I was not thinking of that and this I have on my mind chaos king is he dead like they send him in to another pocket dimension the did not kill him right tell me what you think
I mean the part where you say people complain that Hercules beat Zeus who just shrugged off Galactus but then struggled against others, did he really beat him or did the Chaos King just allow him to get beaten and then everything Zeus says after that is still under Chaos King's control? I mean the panel at 28:05 makes it pretty obvious that Chaos King is still in control so why wouldn't he also just feign losing to Hercules?
If only we got to see Nightmare. 😔
Man got put in a pack he's """""he dead""""""'''''' 🤣
I'm thinking that the Chaos King is really just a sliver of Knull that gained sentience. Same goal, just different mindset.
Knull wishes he is Mikaboshi
Knull inferior
To King of Chaos power
Bow before haiku
Your best yet
8:05, there actually is! The land of Hades is not necessarily Hellish, despite certain shitty movies depict it to be. Hades is a realm where anyone goes, and it is divided into multiple sections:
Fields of Asphodel: Where the average ordinary person goes.
Mourning Fields: Where those that wasted their lives for love go.
Elysium: This is where your average good guy goes.
Fields of Punishment: Self-explanatory.
Tartarus: The hell of hell, Tartarus is a living dimension where entities like evil titans and monsters are banished to, as well as tyrant kings.
This would be a raw movie. If they put it on the big screen. 💯✴
When you eat salad with a spoon...
I'd Love to see you and Kevin Smith sit down and discuss comics.
Towards the end of the video you stated the chaos king doesn’t exist anymore. But he does exist outside the marvel space time continuum. Frequently in comics we see people accessing things outside of their reality. In theory the chaos king can come back if someone comes across the bubble Hera created where he is now trapped. It’s just a thought.
Rob said he's dumb... 😅😅😅 He A DUMMY! Wild.
I have two problems, one, the narrator said multiverse a lot when it should be multi dimension or trans dimensionally. Two Gai just might be a avatar for the cosmic entity of creation.
I wanna watch this but I have to go to school. Rob, what should I do?
Every second video on this channel is about a story where the universe ends. It's like they are out of ideas.
I mean its still entertaining
Definitely cutting a swath through the universe XD
Shout out to the Atlas Foundation😂
That was great I love the story and glad u covered it ..sweeeeeetnesss lol
I need to dig thru my comic box’s I have a bunch from the 60’s thru 2000
One of The Best Comic Book Stories Ever!
I think you might be lowballing Oblivion...
Brother I love your videos... your funny as hell...
