The reason he was able to trick Wolverine is because he only has 5 senses Spider-Man has 6 so if you’re Wolverine and you think what you see, hear, smell, feel, and taste are real then it’s easier to trick you instead of trying to trick Spider-Man who can sense danger instead of using his other senses
I can never understand why villains think it is a good idea to attack someone's heart, meaning family, or beings they care deeply about. If you hurt them, you make it personal. You kill them your pushing them past their breaking point. People who have nothing are the most dangerous thing to ever threaten you. Since they are unpredictable, and unchained they will do anything to hurt you. Even at the cost of their freedom or life even.
paleface171 I get that that's the point for some villains, like the the Joker, who's wants to break the bat, to show that they are not so different. But that shit is really stupid, and while it keeps the stakes high, the problem is that it relies on the hero winning. if the villain wins and the significant other dies, there isn't really much to stop them from making a beeline from saving the day to ending theirs. The problem with most villains in comics is that *way* to often is their flaw arrogance and overconfidence, I really don't need every third or fourth villain laughing like an asshole, taunting like charismatic a school boy.
I think the biggest reason that it occurs over and over is when you have Heroes like Wolverine or Superman who it's "impossible to kill". Because you can't get them you go after there vulnerable parts like normal people they have close to them.
Most of the time, it's done out of spite for the hero. The villain can't kill the hero so they want to make them hurt. The villain usually underestimates the kind of response that action triggers though but in real life that doesn't happen that often.
There's an interesting episode about this in Young Justice. Where (Spoiler alert) OceanMaster wants to hurt personally the heroes families where at the most vulnerable. Family/friend/mothers/childrens meeting. He wants to kill them all, but here the other supervillains stop him, because they knew of the gathering, they keep track of their families, and killing them is just an last resort plan. They do not want to face the consecuences unleess that is the last resort. So they stop OceanMaster Swifftly.
Hollywood, comics, and stories trick us into believing everyone hulks out and turns bad ass when their family is threatened and hurt. In reality most people crumple, destroy themselves, fall apart, lose motivation. Familial harm is not a motivator, it is a powerful weapon used to destabilize someone and render them innefectual.
I love Old Man Logan. My problem with this story though is how easily Wolverine takes down the X-Men. I understand the logic behind Mysterios illusions on Wolverine's heightened senses, but you mean to tell me Wolverine was met with NO resistance from the X-Men? Yes, I would expect that the first couple of X-Men were killed in unexpected surprise attacks. After that I would assume that a telepath on the team would figure out something is up. Iceman could've iced him. Colossus could've restrained him. I don't know. Seeing the super villains using the X-Men's abilities should've snapped him out of the illusion at the very least. I don't know. I just think he took the entire team down way too easily.
Once you see Wolverine using Captain America's shield to decapitate Red Skull and fly off in Iron Man's armor,it gets pretty difficult to get impressed by any other comic. So far I have only read the first part of Old man Logan (it ends at the point where Hawkeye and Logan leave his farm in the Spidermobile),but it looks like I've only scratched the surface. This just absolutely blew my mind!
I'm a big boy but that moment when Logan was killing every hulk made me tear up. Rob's commentary and the art style evoked the sadness behind the rage so well.
Go back and reread when Magneto rpartially ripped the adamantium from Wolverine's body. His healing factor didn't burn out. Having the adamantium grafted to his skeletal system taxed /slowed his healing factor. When the adamantium was removed, his healing factor went into overdrive. Or more accurately it went to what it should have been, because it was no longer fighting off whatever harm the adamantium was doing to Wolverine.
Yep...half of his healing ability was always healing him from the Adamantium in his body. Without the Adamantium removed he has almost an instantaneous healing factor.
Ulysses Klaue Absorbing man Shocker Blob Silver Samurai Scorpion Doc Ock Bullseye Green Goblin Cable Mysterio was right,Wolverine couldn't take all those guys.
Yeah half of them could beat him on their own while the other half are so close in threat level that it's 50/50 odds. The only ones wolverine could probably beat no problem are 1. Klaue 2. Bullseye 3. Blob 4. And Possibly Cable but i don't know enough about him to make a call
Killer work Rob. I was waiting a long time for this one. I absolutely love that you are remastering some of the other stories you've covered. I've watched them all my man.
man I feel off of reading comics came back and didn't know where to start and how much changed. thanks man you got me on track and I started with old man Logan. you deserve way more subscribers
Rob, incredible, incredible storytelling!!!!! I wasn't even intending to watch and listen to this all the way through, but I was compelled!!! You should have WAAAAAAAAAAAY more likes, man!!! SUPPORT THIS DUDE!!! HE IS THE BEST!!!!!!! V.
Something i really like is how when Logan decides to pop his claws again, his outfit resembles William Munney from Unforgiven, which is cool because they’re both old men getting revenge on the people that killed their loved ones
When this story came out, I was blown away! I've been buying comics since the 80's, but I think this was the first x-men related story I ever followed by returning to buy again next month! It was so great I wish they wouldn't touch it now and mess around with it. Also, Spider-Bitch was amazing and I do wish I could see more of her story!
I just hope one day the real comic book correct version of old man Logan is adapted for the big screen or a tv series with a big budget. This has to be my favorite comic book storyline from the comics in general. The pure audacity and scope of old man Logan is mind boggling.
I just bought the comic in London a couple days ago, because of this video! yesterday i went back to the store and got 3 other marvel bundles, thanks for getting me hooked!
I love you voice and story telling abilities. You are great. I was kind of hoping you will do a video on the Logan movie and comparing to the old man logan comics. Maybe go over any easter eggs I may miss in the movie.
I've been reading Wolverine for a little over 20 years now, but it just now dawned on me. Wouldn't his healing factor be weaker with adamantium in his body than with out it? He may have been able to survive the experiment but it would tax the hell out of his healing factor. Constantly working to keep him from being poisoned an all.
ChronicScrub nah bruh. Even without the adamantium he can survive a pretty much everything he did before. But since he has the metal he was indestructible. His bones couldn’t break and all.
Well in the comics when he did get the metal bonded his healing factor did deminish but after a while it went back to normal because it got used to the metal
It does after he loses his adamantium i'm pretty sure his healing factor gets better and they give him adamantium again except this one doesn't poison him somehow
Rob, you say that this is the best Wolverine comic? Have you read "Wolverine The Best There Is"? Amazing artwork by Juan Jose Ryp. Don't know if it's better than Old Man Logan, but it's definitely up there for one of the best stories. Would be awesome to see a ComicsExplained video on that series.
I mean with all the powerlevel battle forums making Odin to be some kind of OP galaxy buster you'd think Thor's death would piss him off enough to crush the Earth like an egg.
This reminds me of a What If? comic where Captain America wasn't revived in time and the U.S. was conquered and split in half between Dr. Doom and The Red Skull/Hydra. The X-Man were wiped out except for Wolvie and Jean Grey who are now part of a resistance group along with Iron Man and some others . In the final battle, Hydra unleashes a mind-controlled Hulk on the heroes before his mind control device was destroyed. It just has a similar post-apocalyptic/dystopian feel plus that the villians had their own territories and whatnot.
an old man logan game should be made where decisions determine if you fight and your healing factor works slow. there would be lots of lore and locations where heros died.
Just bought my first marvel comic today and I can honestly, 100% say that you were the reason why. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you Rob for introducing me to the amazing and bada** community of comics along with those who read them #OldManLogan
I still think wolverine killing all the mutants was a bit ridiculous though...surely at least one of them could have restrained wolverine - but it's a good enough reason for the story.
This comic series is amazing, just the aftermath of what happened aside from logan killing the X-men. Hank pin dying as a giant and his skeleton becoming a monument to their failure, same as thors hammer. Red skull has a treasure room of all the dead heros
lol rob you got me cracking up over here man I love all your videos man but every time you say let me tell you something robcore it reminds me of when I was a kid watching wrestling when I was into hulk Hogan how he would turn to the crowed and called everyone hulkamaniacs and say let me tell you something brother lol. anyways man love the store I like all your videos before I even watch it cause I know im gonna love when you put on here keep up the good work thanks for explaining there stores @comicsExplained
That Mysterio twist was mind blowing...
Was stupid. He can barely trick Spider-Man but can completely manipulate wolverine with some of the keenest senses?
The reason he was able to trick Wolverine is because he only has 5 senses Spider-Man has 6 so if you’re Wolverine and you think what you see, hear, smell, feel, and taste are real then it’s easier to trick you instead of trying to trick Spider-Man who can sense danger instead of using his other senses
@@undeadpolo5796 the fact you think its stupid, makes you pretty stupid
@@sicthemutt such a compelling statement
@@undeadpolo5796 idiot
The hulk family unleashed something worse than death a man with noting to lose.
...and oh, how they PAID for that mistake.
Reality Rejection Service big time
Camilla B: not only that, they unleashed a man with nothing to lose who has a healing factor *AND* adamantium claws. that's even worse.
Of course, the most dangerous person is someone who has nothing to lose.
@@Daniel-zp2pi false
I love it when you go all like "Lemme tell you something, Robcorp"
Svearald Blood-Anvil if Rob had a limit break it would be this
Svearald Blood-Anvil to me it's him while in the WWE "let me tell you something brother!"
FAN BOY!!!.. love it
“LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING SVEARALD BLOOD-ANVIL” -Rath
That design of Ultron is freaking amazing
I want it as an action figure.
I heard this variant of wolverine is the Logan we see in the Deadpool & Wolverine movie trailer which is why he’s depressed

I just got rid of my morning wood and Rob has to go and upload this...

Top 10 things that never happened
"My name is not Logan, my name is Wolverine"
*Chills down my spine*
Wolverine: "who's the strongest now? u big green fuck!" XD
Give Ultron 8 a Claptrap voice, and I'm sold.
Give ultron 8 a gir voice lol

Nuri Durr I agree. If anything it should've took at least 2-3 months.
whose to say logan was the only one hallucinating that night?
Some random guy from the beyond Oh shit, this guy's got the right idea.
Some random guy from the beyond But they ASKED Wolverine why he was killing them. How could they have been under an illusion as well?
***** Jubilee did that, but I don't remember anyone else saying that.

Can't wait for the Logan movie.
SupaPixelGirl It's better than the wolverine movies...
i really did not like Hugh Jackman's Wolverine i really hope hes not gonna be old man Logan
Darth Isaac by how much?
bruh Hugh jackman IS wolverine.
Killah Bob You'll have to see it.
Probably one of the best comics explained so far! Keep up what your doing man! Huge fan of yours!
I got the trailer for the new Wolverine movie before this video.
SAME
I'm a big boy but that moment when Logan was killing every hulk made me tear up. Rob's commentary and the art style evoked the sadness behind the rage so well.
whenever Rob says "Now lemme tell you something" shits gotten real
old man Logan's Kingpin looks like 50 cent
Go back and reread when Magneto rpartially ripped the adamantium from Wolverine's body. His healing factor didn't burn out.

Rob I got to say man, you that dude. keep it up man. #Robcorps
This story and Wolverine Origin are my two favorite Wolverine comics ever written.👏
Ulysses Klaue
Absorbing man
Shocker
Blob
Silver Samurai
Scorpion
Doc Ock
Bullseye
Green Goblin
Cable
Mysterio was right,Wolverine couldn't take all those guys.
Yeah half of them could beat him on their own while the other half are so close in threat level that it's 50/50 odds.
The only ones wolverine could probably beat no problem are
1. Klaue
2. Bullseye
3. Blob
4. And Possibly Cable but i don't know enough about him to make a call
Shocker?Seriously?
I just stopped in the middle of watching to say, "LET ME TELL YA SOMETHING, ROB CORPS!"
Killer work Rob. I was waiting a long time for this one. I absolutely love that you are remastering some of the other stories you've covered. I've watched them all my man.
This video was just Great I didn't know marvel could get soo Dark
You should check out rob's video on marvel ruin if you want to see a dark marvel it's basically the darkest timeline
Only the MCU is kid friendly, there were a handful of stories in the 2000s up to 2010 that were dark, the best era of Marvel.
man I feel off of reading comics came back and didn't know where to start and how much changed. thanks man you got me on track and I started with old man Logan. you deserve way more subscribers
Rob, incredible, incredible storytelling!!!!! I wasn't even intending to watch and listen to this all the way through, but I was compelled!!! You should have WAAAAAAAAAAAY more likes, man!!! SUPPORT THIS DUDE!!! HE IS THE BEST!!!!!!! V.
When Rob says: "Let me tell you something", you know it is gonna be lit.
Something i really like is how when Logan decides to pop his claws again, his outfit resembles William Munney from Unforgiven, which is cool because they’re both old men getting revenge on the people that killed their loved ones
"my names not logan.....its wolverine" that gave me shivers down my spine
When this story came out, I was blown away! I've been buying comics since the 80's, but I think this was the first x-men related story I ever followed by returning to buy again next month! It was so great I wish they wouldn't touch it now and mess around with it. Also, Spider-Bitch was amazing and I do wish I could see more of her story!
Magneto's best ever moment is when he tore Apocalypse in half in 'Age of Apocalypse'.
I just hope one day the real comic book correct version of old man Logan is adapted for the big screen or a tv series with a big budget. This has to be my favorite comic book storyline from the comics in general. The pure audacity and scope of old man Logan is mind boggling.
I feel like the darkness of this story would've made the intended impact if you hadn't given spoilers in previous Old Man Logan related content.
Imagine this is the version of Wolverine in Deadpool and Wolverine, the trailer said that Wolverine let the world down
haha man I love your passion towards good story telling. "Now lemme tell you sum rob corp, LEMME TELL YOU SUM" gets me lol'n every time.
I just bought the comic in London a couple days ago, because of this video! yesterday i went back to the store and got 3 other marvel bundles, thanks for getting me hooked!
Rob, this is a seriously well-done video. One of my favorites of yours.
I find the watchmen-like color scheme in this comic kinda beautiful.
You know shits gonna get real when Rob speaks the magic words: "THIS IS AAAAAMAAAAAAAAAZING!"
Rob brother, you are doing an amazing job explaining the cosmos/comics!
I love you voice and story telling abilities. You are great. I was kind of hoping you will do a video on the Logan movie and comparing to the old man logan comics. Maybe go over any easter eggs I may miss in the movie.
really appreciate the video brobro. love your energy. keep it going!!
always a good feeling when your notification pops up. great work, Rob. :)
This is the wolverine we get in deadpool 3
when you said "Let me tell you something " i had a flashback of hulk hogan saying "Let me tell you some thing"
Can't believe this was 6 years ago..... unbelievable this is the first time seeing Rob's content for me in that long of a time.
Almost at a thousand videos, love watching these since I can't seem to actually retain enough interest to read them. you're the best and keep it up.
"Superman vehicle"????? Your killing me smalls…….Jk. Great video as usual. Keep it going Rob, love your videos.
I wish we get to see a side story of the rest of the fights that went on after wolverine killed the x men. That story would be so insane and cool
Marvel should make a comic book called superhero Holocaust explaining what happened
Yo...when he said that Wolverine was killing the other X-Men my jaw actually dropped. That's fucked up.
this... this is gonna make me READ every comic ever
Thanks for doing more Wolverine/Logan I would love it if you did more Wolvie to celebrate Jackmans last Go this story is Epic
You have amazing videos, imo the logan movie was the best marvel movie to date! A true masterpiece
LMAO this man compared not leaving a tip at a restaurant to Logan losing ANOTHER family of his. This is why I subbed. 10/10.
I really don't believe non of the X-men couldn't have stopped Logan.
"Let me tell you something..."
Hammerfalls? We The Elder Scrolls now, boiiz!!!
Looks like we're having Old Man Logan in the Deadpool and Wolverine movie😎🔥
"So don't even think about asking me to fight again, you hear me? I'll never hurt another livin' soul" and to see Wolvie cry, fuck man, a tear jerker.
who else is rewatching this after wathing the Deadpool & Wolverine trailer?
I've been reading Wolverine for a little over 20 years now, but it just now dawned on me. Wouldn't his healing factor be weaker with adamantium in his body than with out it? He may have been able to survive the experiment but it would tax the hell out of his healing factor. Constantly working to keep him from being poisoned an all.
ChronicScrub nah bruh. Even without the adamantium he can survive a pretty much everything he did before. But since he has the metal he was indestructible. His bones couldn’t break and all.
@Quake what are you talking about? Killed by brain shot. He'll recover from any damage even if it destroys his brain.
Well in the comics when he did get the metal bonded his healing factor did deminish but after a while it went back to normal because it got used to the metal
It does after he loses his adamantium i'm pretty sure his healing factor gets better and they give him adamantium again except this one doesn't poison him somehow
haha that whole bit about mistakes it's so goofy it was great
Reed Richards and sue storm got beat up by kang and dumped in the time stream it is in the old man quill book
*Every time Ultron shows up*
Avengers: Ahh shit here we go again
What a bad ass story line to bad we won't ever get something this intense in the movies
Rob, you say that this is the best Wolverine comic? Have you read "Wolverine The Best There Is"? Amazing artwork by Juan Jose Ryp. Don't know if it's better than Old Man Logan, but it's definitely up there for one of the best stories.
Would be awesome to see a ComicsExplained video on that series.
I never thought I'd see Wolverine wearing an Iron Man suit. Holy shit.
I mean with all the powerlevel battle forums making Odin to be some kind of OP galaxy buster you'd think Thor's death would piss him off enough to crush the Earth like an egg.
At the 20:00 mark ... RedSkull is a straight up gangsta genius !!!!
lol "then he just kinda ran off to the woods for a while" oh classic Wolverine
Damn. Once Logan's family was killed, Wolverine was on *edge*.
This truly did break Wolverine in a way I thought wasn’t even possible until I read this story arc man
Great video Rob! You out did yourself with this one!
that last image blew my brain bro, BlEaH! a Galactus powered planet.. dah fuq we smoking
This reminds me of a What If? comic where Captain America wasn't revived in time and the U.S. was conquered and split in half between Dr. Doom and The Red Skull/Hydra. The X-Man were wiped out except for Wolvie and Jean Grey who are now part of a resistance group along with Iron Man and some others . In the final battle, Hydra unleashes a mind-controlled Hulk on the heroes before his mind control device was destroyed. It just has a similar post-apocalyptic/dystopian feel plus that the villians had their own territories and whatnot.
This story was basically a Wolverine fan service.
DAMN! Such a great story thank you for doing this! I hope they make an animated movie for this
an old man logan game should be made where decisions determine if you fight and your healing factor works slow. there would be lots of lore and locations where heros died.
"Emma frost married her husband"
"Hmm yes the floor is made of floor"
Yeah the remaining heroes kill Galactus. pft
Cool story but I still prefer the Earth X series. It made more sense than all of this.
Always know it's about to go down when Rob says "Let me tell ya somethin Rob core!" 😂😂😂
Goddamn that was brutal and dark as hell but I love it. Great video and I am more than hyped to see Logan now.
great video! was looking forward to you making this
I look at this and say, "Hey look, it's virtually everything we *won't* see in the movie!".
Just bought my first marvel comic today and I can honestly, 100% say that you were the reason why. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you Rob for introducing me to the amazing and bada** community of comics along with those who read them #OldManLogan
I still think wolverine killing all the mutants was a bit ridiculous though...surely at least one of them could have restrained wolverine - but it's a good enough reason for the story.
GREAT GOD DAMN VIDEO, I never watch the hole thing when it comes to these types of videos but MAN was this one something else
Absolutely fantastic! Idk how I just discovered your channel but I'm glad I did.
Wolverine doesn't get any better than this story. I read the whole thing in an hour pure enjoyment.
I loved reading this for first the time. Stuff got real and Logan deserves a break.
This comic series is amazing, just the aftermath of what happened aside from logan killing the X-men. Hank pin dying as a giant and his skeleton becoming a monument to their failure, same as thors hammer. Red skull has a treasure room of all the dead heros
You have covered this story before, but this video is much more in depth. Good work.
I read in a form somewhere that it is rumored that that Doctor Doom actually could be Franklin Richards
WHY did they not do this in the movie? It would have made his arc so much more compelling! Dammit
Boss, so damn good Rob! Gonna go pick up this series ASAP!
Nice video love your channel
Lol I got the LOGAN commercial when I opened up the video
lol rob you got me cracking up over here man I love all your videos man but every time you say let me tell you something robcore it reminds me of when I was a kid watching wrestling when I was into hulk Hogan how he would turn to the crowed and called everyone hulkamaniacs and say let me tell you something brother lol. anyways man love the store I like all your videos before I even watch it cause I know im gonna love when you put on here keep up the good work thanks for explaining there stores @comicsExplained
