Captain America Conquers The World (Secret Empire: Full Story) 

Im 60 years old recently disabled and I love my comics. Your readings really help. i have marvel unlimited but i still cant read them all because my disability makes it hard. You!!! set my mind free dude. i still have lots to listen to before i die. i have ultron series and cant read em all. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

MAN lemme tell y'all something. When Rob gets hyped, I'm hyped.

I literally just watched all 3 hours of this. Bad. Ass. You rock man.

Man, the beginning of this video made me so happy. To see you get recognition from the writers that have impacted your life made me so proud, Rob! You’re truly a Hero! All Love. 🤟🏽

Dude, you are a celebrity. A virtual legend, wait, no, a literal legend, in the making. Man, let me tell ya, maaan.

Yoooo Rick Jones with the "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!" is so damn tough😩😭🔥

Rob is definitely one of the best content creators on RU-vid. He doesn't just rehash the stories. He gives you context and analysis. A rare quality indeed.

*every single hero dies* Comic explained: that is so cool

I recently came to a realization about Captain America, which is that ... IF the writers would actually utilize his most powerful ability ... he SHOULD BE the most powerful character in the Marvel Universe. Let me explain: First, what is his most powerful ability? It's the ability very few people ever think about and most don't even know about. The super soldier serum didn't just make Steve strong and fast. It literally turned his brain into what is essentially an organic super-computer. The reason his shield always comes back to him after bouncing off of half a dozen moving objects is because, in the moment he throws his shield, he does all the mathematical calculations to determine how to throw his shield with enough force and at the right angle to bounce off of those half-dozen MOVING objects and return to his hand. He has a photographic memory and a fantastic ability to calculate not only numbers, but human action. He has the ability to create fully formed strategies in an instant. This power, however, is constantly ignored by the writers because if the every utilized it to any significant degree, it would COMPLETELY change the character of Captain America. He could literally spend the day in a college library and end up with a PHD level understanding of physics. Give him another day to search the internet for cutting edge research articles and now he's on par with Stark, Richards, Banner, etc... Give him a week to really focus on honing his scientific knowledge and now he's the smartest man in the Marvel Universe by a WIDE margin. Next, think about how crazy powerful Dr. Strange is. Dr. Strange wasn't born with any powers or special abilities other than being smart. Magic in the Marvel Universe is something that can be learned. It's a skill. So, in walks Cap to the Sanctum Sanctorum and asks Dr. Strange for lessons. A week later Cap is the new Sorcerer Supreme. So we're two weeks in and now Cap is not only physically a super soldier, but skills wise he's in a position to create bleeding edge advanced armor and weapons that would make Stark Tech look like a 2X4 with a nail in it and the magical knowledge to do pretty much ANYTHING he wants. He's basically the good-guy version of Doctor Doom, but about a thousand times more powerful in every way. If this is just the first two weeks ... holy crap! What does week 3 look like?!

As a teen I was all about my comics. I lost my way over the years, I love your page as I'm able to piece together storylines I've missed over the yrs. The art of storytelling is strong in this one, thank you for uploading these classics. With your knowledge, you totally could've been the keeper of the soul stone in the Infinity War films...

I low-key wanted it to be Ultimate Captain America who would finally beat Hydra Overlord Cap. I played it in my head like this: Hydra Cap: Surrender, you're completely outmatched, outnumbered, and..... ***Hydra Cap gets drop-kicked **** Ultimate Captain America: SURRENDER!?!?! WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS A ON MY HEAD STANDS FOR FRANCE!?!?!?!!?

I love your channel as I would never have time to read all of this but thanks to you I get to hear these stories.

Don't let racism stop your coverage of Cap America Sam Wilson. Ignore the trolls or mute comments. Marvel had the stones to put it out there despite potential racism and you should cover it in the same spirit

We here in New Zealand love that Hydra chose us as their headquarters, they pay their taxes, behave and conduct themselves in a amicable manner, the best part is the fact that Bob is now teaching agriculture 101.

This breakdown was so clutch, Rob! Big thank you for putting the time into this!

Digesting these long-form compilations during my night shift is a new ritual :3 thank you.

Sam Wilson has been one of the closest allies to Steve Rogers since his conception, the fact people deduce him taking the mantle up of cap to him being black is just false. He became Cap cuz he’s Sam Wilson not because of his skin color

I love it. Nick did truly one of the best modern comic stories . Easily one of the best in the last 20 years. This and the Winter Soldier storyline are REQUIRED comic book reading imo. nothing short of a master stroke

That was one of the best stories I’ve heard in a long time. I love the inclusion of the freedom versus security argument

This entire story is so cool it should be made into an actual MCU movie. Seeing Chris Evans becoming evil and then later wielding Thor’s hammer would be amazing to see in theaters or on any screen.

This story has become frighteningly relevant.

This is a public service you are doing, dude. You explain comics in a way that brings out the kid in me who was enthralled by comics nearly three decades ago. And I find myself listening to you for hours on end even with comics I’ve already read. That’s how good you are at this.

Still crzy seeing impactful Benny was on this channel and EM, RIP.

I met Rob and Benny at C2E2 2016 when they were on their way to pick up their badges. I fangirled so hard! ^_^

One of the things that I appreciate the most about Secret Empire is that it highlights the importance of Steve Rogers in Marvel. It's not just the symbol that he unmistakably represents; but what who he is as a character and a person.

Damn Hydra reminds me of the old GI Joe’s enemy Cobra! Remember them?

A difference between injustice and secret empire was pretty much the level of totalitarianism. Superman was a bad guy because he wanted to control everything, invigilation was through the roof and people were afraid of speaking out in thier own homes, while Hydra Cap is trully up for debate, because while still totalitarian, his rule allowed quite a lot of personal freedom while being ruthless to the criminals. There is an argument to be made about Cap and not one about Superman.

I've never been so happy to miss a series of videos. I couldn't have put up with those cliff hangers

Your excitement just make everything ten times more interesting lol. I have to say the whole hydra captain story is the first time I actually get the whole “cut off one head and two more shall take its place” thing, instead of some cheesy line form the bad guys. Love your videos!

I Bet at some point in the near future Hydra Cap escapes from jail has a “accident” that damages his face and he ultimately becomes the new red skull

I work as a driver for a non-emergency medical transportation company and for those really long drives, your channel is absolutely amazing for me. I don't have to ready or "watch" anything and I still get the full story and I get to picture it all take place in my head! Thank you for doing such an amazing job!

HOW COULD NICK SPENCER NOT KNOW YOUR NAME? YOU LITERALLY SAY IT AT THE BEGINNING OF EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOUR VIDEOS?. You're famous, man...accept it.

See an ad every 5 minutes. Only for rob will I put up with it.

Thank you for putting in the time to do these videos. I still have alot of these comics but having them like an audio version is wonderful. I listen to them as I fall asleep and instead of music I actually listen to them while I weight lift because it keeps me way more focused than music. Again, thanks Rob. Would love to see a video for skating on the line Spidey issue and a talk about why it's such an important comic.

I have been binge watching (on speed 1.25x) all of your content the past week. I miss reading comics ... Thank you for providing essentially "Clif Notes" for Comics. These have helped me regain a lot of what I've forgotten along with plenty I never knew about.

Thank you! Today is actually my birthday and I've been wanting to see this story! Happy 30th to me! You're awesome!

Hydra Cap* "i did nothing illegal" The remains of las vagas* "am i a joke to you?"

Hey Rob. Great job on the video man. I don't necessarily regret taking a break from reading comics, when the whole Captain America saying "Hail Hydra" dropped, considering I had discovered your channel around the same time, to at least kind of keep up with things. But now that the story is done and I have a clear view of the allegories involved, I agree with you that Nick Spencer has written an epic masterpiece of a saga in Secret Empire, once all of the pieces have been set in place. Aside from comic books, I'm also a huge history buff and have over the course of the last few years, I've been studying and researching different books about American history. As well as some material, that would be considered based on "conspiracy theory" to people, even though it is based on documented facts. And while watching and listening to your video, I can definitely see where Nick was touching upon certain details of history, in developing Hydra Captain America to be an allegory. I'm pretty sure not a lot people, including comic book fans, are aware of Operation Paperclip, that brought into the United States former Nazi spies and scientists. The most famous being Wernher von Braun who was the head of the Apollo Rocket program. I can also see how Nick is influenced, by current issues and social conflicts going on in the country today, to express a deeper message of objective criticism about us, the audience in his story. I'm certainly going to have to keep an eye out for the trade paperback and read it brother. I'm glad I waited for you to put this together to watch it all the way through. If you're interested in a recommendation, definitely look for The Constitution of the United States of America; The Illustrated Adaption, I'm not sure who wrote and Illustrated it. I gave my copy to my daughter. But definitely keep an eye out for it, online or at a bookstore, you'll enjoy it. Peace, love and chicken grease, Rob.

Rob: no comic story is truly bad Also Rob: but civil war 2 tho

I can’t hate this story I understand why people don’t like and but this story doesn’t deserved to be hated as much as it is

While I'm finishing my undergrad degree, traveling to and from school has become exciting and fun because of you, Rob. Im so glad you're around, doing what you do; really makes my day ♡

My friend, I thank you for bringing these stories come to life. Love your delivery. Feels like a conversation/ discussion. Excellent job, keep up the great work!

I dont care what anybody says I love this fuckin story. I like stories like this, dark reign is one of my favorites as well

There is literally an ad for every second on this video.😂😂😂😂😂

Rob jefferson you do know your channel makes you just as famous and as important as the artist and writers because of how you break down and detail the story great channel bro

I loved how into this you were. Best story I've heard in awhile and you brought it to life for me.

Ah secret empire the most controversial marvel event of the decade

It's my 30th birthday today. I spend like... 7 to 10 hours of this day watching your most long videos to enjoy the day. TOTALLY WORTHY! Thank you Rob!

3 hours to kill, I'm at work, I've done everything already, I stay clocked in. LET'S BEGIN.

Thanks Rob, been unwinding after work all week to this, have a great weekend!

Dude made me smile that you got to meet someone important to you, a good story is made magic by a good storyteller and you good sir are the best

Here's the thing... That whole Kingpin deal in this story, is exactly what is going on in Mexico with the pandemic, that daughter of El Chapo giving food and other essential products to poor families, those animals from Cartel Jalisco whatever whatever promising to the people, that they would take care of them in this crisis, and the whole thing with the smuggler rings of medicine that have appeared, instantly remind me of this But anyway, I've been listening to Rob Non-Stop since this sort-of not really obligatory, but also not voluntary lockdown started in Mexico (Is a mess, is confusing, and it really isn't working, but that's not the point) I love this channel

The story is soo good because it’s soo true. It wasn’t someone you would label a psychopath making those decisions. It was a hero.

Steve Rogers is respect it not just for his leadership , but for his generalship . He is the best strategist in marvel comics,period! Just read the story of the builders as they move towards earth. His strategies made even the aliens look to him for leader ship!

2019 hungry for more cap after end game found this, and just wow what an amazing storyline thank you for your time and effort.

This is one of the best channels on youtube

1:13 I'm going to miss seeing moments like that

This would make a good Captain America movie; better than any Marvel movie already out there... Yup a 3 hour movie with flashbacks and shit! True hype...

3 hours!!? CONTENT FOR YOUR ARSE!

Rob leaving us big cliffhangers: 😈 me watching the playlist: 😂 thanks funny

Planned to watch this over a few days...ended up findishing it in two sittings lol

Awesome material keep up the cool works

Dude you are a fkn machine bro.. content content content...Love it.. Love you..

I love your fun loving attitude its infectious I'm only 19 but for kids in my age group comics are hard to get your hands on luckily I had a library down the street from my highschool growing up and they had all of marvel's best you help me bring back those memories thank you

You know what... Seeing the pictures of you guys all together, the 3 of you especially, seemed like a photographed right out of "Watchmen". Then it dawned on me, you guys are like superheroes in your own way. The way you bring these stories to us the normal citizens. You all do it in your own way, which is your own special power. You all have your own personal problems that you work through while still taking the time to send us these stories. It just reminds me of the heroes from watchmen. You guys won't be around forever, but these pictures will forever remind us of a time in history when you guys did and do what you do.

Captain America is the one pure good guy the MCU has. IF YOU FUCK WITH THAT, YOU LOSE ME FOREVER.

I hated secret empire but i love hearing rob talks with so much excitement. Worth it !

Man you’re such a cool guy!! I’ve been following you for years !! Good stuff man.. When Avengers were in between movies I was all over your stuff. I appreciate it !!

Ketching up - my favorite food-related phrasing from now on.

Love that the channel has grown so much! A way to give back to you what you’ve given to us!

Love these full story vids.

What if Nick Spencer's new Spider-Man is just like "oh no Uncle Ben was really the villain this whole time?!" 😂

Cap is a complete savage in this story and I think it’s amazing

He finally admitted his voice gets me emotionally drained lol I love it

Man oh ….man let me tell you love this hosts animations when he gets hype when he gets excited 😆 about his videos or the content within

I enjoyed Secret Empire I had issues with it yes. But I overall enjoyed myself....but...... DO SAM WILSON CAPTAIN AMERICA!!!!!

I don’t understand why people disliked this story. There was apparently controversy because cap basically became fascist (even though the idea that cap would stay that way is ridiculous) and some declared it bad before even reading it all. This is one of the best comic book stories of the last decade.

Hey did anyone notice Cap has no wings on his mask in the famous "Hail Hydra" pic??

You look like Howard Jones the old vocalist from Killswitch Engage! Love your videos by the way I watch them everyday at work. I'm here for 8 hours so being able to learn more about the Marvel universe is amazing. I destroy the trivia events we have here in my home town. Thank you thank you for the knowledge!!!! You are the man

Your RU-vid is very addictive I've been watching it all day I mean binge-watchingand for looking at you in these pictures I can tell when you speak on these books you're genuine you really like reading and doing what you do

The way you tell the stories and your enthusiasm hooks a person, well done Sir, it's easy to put one of these on and listen to the whole video while working, keep them coming brother

"you know what, I'm just gonna explode" lmao not sure why that got me

I have watched like I've watched like 12 hours of your content in the last 24 hours. These are all great!

Dude, it's crazy how much this parallels Falcon and Winter Soldier.

What a story. I'm with you, Rob. Refreshing.

So old man Logan has always been my favorite... unroll now. How awesome was that! Also this really showed me a deeper side of Rob and I was so impressed with his intellect. I would like videos about Rob and his life lol. If you listen he eagle dropped a lot if knowledge pertaining to life and showed great wisdom. 👍

When he said it just thundered outside, there was a instant thunder clap at my house. Robs a mutant.

Great story, one of my favorites from the more recent stories. But once the shield is blown up, who's protecting the planet from the Chitari? That seems like a plot hole. They spent all that time fighting but all of a sudden, the chitari isn't coming anymore?

One of the best storylines that Marvel Comics have ever put out.

Am I the only one who hears Hulk Hogan's intro theme when classic Captain America appears?

I was into comics when I was younger, loving your channel to listen to the stories while working etc.

Been on ur channel nonstop for the last two weeks! Man, lemme tell you, MAAAAAN!

Best video clip ever!!! That's the level I wanna get to!!! You literally met people you're excited to be a fan of..... AND THEY'RE YOUR FANS TOO!!!!! Hell yeah!!! I literally dropped a tear at that awesomeness!!!! I'm hitting LA COMIC CON next month. I'm for sure gonna be appreciately fan-cited if I run into you! I feel so dope for you! And ALL the guys and girls on different medias becoming the voices of cool ish! Feel good clip of the day!

Prison ain't Prison if you get Shake Shack lol

I share your videos to get people started in comics and this is still one of the best analysis of events on the internet. Thank you for everything.

Way to go Rob, awesome telling of the story. You kept me hyped the whole 3 and half hours

I love your channel and your enthusiasm when it comes to telling these stories makes it that much better !! I’ve become a huge fan.

9:37 Graviton was from Avengers Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, it was an animated cartoon

Lol take a shot every time he says “basically” I made it like 20 min in and I’m hammered 🥴🥴 love your videos tho🙌🏽👌🏽

As much as i loved this the ending was rather rushed almost. At least by the art stand point. I think i have watched this like 3 times not at the same time but over all. Still have the same feeling when getting done with this. Idk amazing as always Rob!
