ABSOLUTE BATMAN IS A BANGER!! | Absolute Batman #1 In-Depth Review 

Thanks everyone for the outpouring of support this video is getting. Be sure to support the creators and grab your copy of Absolute Batman from your LCS!!

I love the irony here Bruce Wayne essentially only has enough, he has a mother, he is generally upper middle class, he has training, he has trauma and vengeance. Yet he chooses to do what is right Joker, has everything yet he chooses to do what's wrong.

Bruce Modifying Alfred's gun to non-lethal and then stealing his bike is so funny 😭😭

The shotgun firing baterangs is fucking hilarious.

Batman tells Barbara Gordon the same thing his dad said when he locked him in the batenclosure "no matter what you hear don't open the door"

The Joker is 6'5" & 191lbs in DC's main canon & he needs to be tall & skinny, absolutely lanky in this Absolute Universe

I initially hated this Batman design, but this comic really sells it. Very excited for this new take on the characters, I hope they get everyone else right as well, very hopeful for Superman and the cool Wonder Woman.

He's not just built different, he's BUILT DIFFERENT

knowing that the joker is basically Bruce Wayne is equally funny, yet a bit terrifying i do wonder what kind of joker hes gonna be in this universe im thinking like simply an evil jake nappir from the white knight comics

Now this is what I call a good Elseworld story premise! I do like how they make it believable that Batman could do what he does while being blue collar, that was something people had trouble buying. Also its interesting seeing that Bruce is friends with most of his rogues and clearly his new "job" is causing rifts in their friendships. I'm curious how things will play out and if they'll become villains or fight besides him. And this might be the first Batman story I've heard of where one of Bruce's parents are alive. There were only two things I didn't like. First obviously is the Joker, not this version of him I just didn't want him here so soon. Second while I liked how they described how Bruces ordinary jobs are helping the city in ways most people don't notice I still don't like this narrative that Batman didn't do anything for Gotham as Bruce Wayne. He did plenty for the city with his money. But still this comic wasn't that offensive to it, I'm sure it will with this new Joker but I got to admit the Black Mask and "The Party Animals" are terrifying and interesting. Overall I liked way more than I had issues with and looking forward to the next issue. Hopefully the rest of Absolute is this good

13:48 Something tells me that, with all those brains at his disposal, Batman will not remain dead broke before too long. Which is a good thing too. Because against Darkseid, he's going to need all the help one can get...

I thought the leader of the Party Animals would be Diddy

Changing the origins of Batman and Joker is just brilliant

A universe where Batman has at least one of his parents alive. I thought I would never see the day to witness it 😮

I swear I MISS hearing actual comic fans review comics and not the lame grifters just whining and bitching and all ''Oh Go WoKe Go BRoKeE'' crap to get views. You actually read the book and I appreciate your input and talking about the BOOK and not real world social politics nonsense. You earned yourself a sub today

I was kind of expecting at least one of Bruce's parents to be alive, but that Joker twist hit me like a ton of bricks. I agree, I didn't think I wanted them to do Joker this early, but that was with the understanding they were going to be doing a fairly standard version of him. Turning him into an evil Bruce Wayne is actually genius.

A Bruce who actually grew up within Gotham and was friend with what otherwise would be his Rogues Gallery (save for that guy) without massive wealth and Alfred remaining in MI6 being his foil is a wild alternative. Im actually excited.

Wow. First time coming across your channel. Great breakdown of everything and personally I love getting a visual preview of comics. You have a fan now sir.

Seems to be starting out strong, hope it holds up.

I know that the Absolute Universe is supposed to be DC's version of the Ultimate Universe. But I couldn't help but realize it feels more like the new and rebooted Ultimate Universe instead of the original Ultimate Universe. anyone else feel that way or is it just me?

"He never laughs...that's why we call him the Joker..." 🤦🏾‍♂

Absolute Batman: creates building,Destroy the building,fix the building🗿

Wayland is killer crock in normal continuity.

Holy Spit! This is incredible!!

thank you for the review. last time I read batman, was Snyder's run on New 52. Snyder has me back and pumped for this new take on Batman

I love the Gotham TV version of Alfred. Sean Pertwee looks like a Batman maker.

Honestly iam already in love with this issue its fun dark action packed and the alternate versions of the characters are dope

Seems interesting enough. I wish this was a new character for DC instead of another version of Batman. If the story and action is good I'll check it out. This will due until Jim Lee and Jeph Lobe returns for another run on Batman.

Thank you for the review and sneak peek. Watched the 1st 5 mins. All I needed. Thank you, will read the rest tomorrow! Subscribed.

I’m not a fan of DC at all. But this review makes me very interested. Thanks for your review

Does anyone else find it hilarious that Alfred Pennyworth is a super spy with retinal scan locks on his hideout that is full of weapons and spy gear and yet, he locks his motorbike up with nothing but a chain lock and doesn't even have an alarm on said bike?

Oh yeah. Absolute Batman is GOODD

I will always love different variations and twist on classic characters from both marvel and dc

I gotta admit I didn’t have much hope for this one but buff bats with a battleax is quite cool

Dc34 my foot! That's a kel-tec ksg shotgun and the artist knows it. Pump-action bulpup with dual feed tubes. You'd choose it for capacity, compactness, and versatility. But it is still a cheap polymer pump. But Pennyworth is bluffing like he's got a nickel plated fostech origin 12 sbv with an illegal post 1986 machine gun ban modification done.

Thank you for the review, it's a great video. Love your channel.

Thank you!!!!!

How did Alfred survive a shotgun blast of batarangs I have no idea. That old man continues to surprise me 😅

Batman is Hard. ❤

Dope video, just finished the first issue myself. This is my first time reading comics so I thought I’d start from the first issue! As it’s my first time reading them your insight was greatly appreciated !

how does he already have it what????????

Yo this story sounds cool as 💫👌⚡ looking forward to hearing more chapters!

When Batman and Catwoman found Darkseid in absolute power they had ended up on this new earth

Thanks to the channel for broadcasting the first issue of the series, after so many spoilers regarding these new rumors. It seems to me that not only the design but the entire comic is clearly influenced by the art of Frank Miller. Although it is not understood how Batman can be a mountain of muscles but when he is Bruce Wayne his complexion is normal... but great work by Snyder, the Black Mask thing was great ...

I’m curious if you could make a playlist of your 10/10 rated comics that you reviewed

I’m so happy to be this excited about a new Batman series!

Thanks for the review. This seems to be Snyder at his best which I'm glad to see. Kinda sad that I have to wait a month for the next issue.

I was done a favor and got this the day before official release!!

Was I the only one that thought Alfred was Ras Al'Ghul? He has the hairline

On a One to 10 ratio on the Cr@pola scale one being the lowest and 10 being the highest . I give it a …….1 1/2

This is a great story! I am definitely buying a copy.

Killer Crocs real name is Waylon Jones. I wonder if......

Is it just me or does the Absolute Bruce Wayne low-key similar to Terry Mcginnis from Batman Beyond?

This batman humbled Alfred😂

This is the first F13 movie I dug a lot

Whatever they do animal things like Spider-Man yeah he does whatever a spider can but they usually just make it exaggerated WhatsApp Miguel Miguel is based on parts of the ability of a spider does a Spider Sense what hands receptors on his hairs to detect movement but Batman he does a ninja dressed as a bat and fights blind but Daredevil is a line and you learn as much more than just to fight it he used it for his advantage Insurgent scenes and I'm pretty sure there's a comic when he was blind he struggled yes fighting yeah but when he's you know he's still struggled so he can't see anything but this Batman this one's going to be interesting they're really focusing on the animal if he's actually going to have maybe like special goggles and see sound waves and the hang upside down like a bat I really really like that just like a animals

Everything is really interesting. I also really like that the cape isn't used the blind or incapacitate someone but used almost like a spear or precision weapon. I also like that this Bruce is so interconnected to the city and people in it like they've been doing with Bruce actually living in Gotham now and not in his manor outside the city. I also like that the city is almost treated like a human body with Thomas being a doctor in the main timeline this Bruce now know intimately how each body part of the city works having been inside it and knows how to excise the cancer and literally fixes it by day.

this book is amazing and great review matt :)

The battle axe kills its for me. Takes away the Batman element. Makes him more like Deathstroke or a Viking.

It's cool idea, but this batma. Is not for me. 🙂 I really want to like this but the more I learn about it it less interesting for me. But I wish this will be a successful run cause dc needs a win cause their movies aren't successful as of now.

Man the artist actually knows guns. They're doing a better job than the writers and it's easy to tell. Flechets in shotshells generally suck and typically don't penetrate bone. A reduced charge would also still function in a pump action shotgun, where a semi-auto would likely malfunction from the lack of kinetic energy to work the action. So a bunch of batarang shaped flachetes stacked with edges facing down the shell/barrel makes a lot of sense. However if they were stacked with edges facing out towards the sides and had a slight divet punched all facing the same direction, then they could act like cut slugs. Which is why I say the artist is better than the writer. You can't modify how a firearm works to make it nonlethal, they all boil down to mousetraps and a tube. BUT, you can always mess with the ammo and action to run specific types. Especially on shotguns. I still want to see batman deal with accidentally killing someone. All the stuff he does still has a chance to kill one guy who's just a little weaker or more unlucky than the rest, especially with complications.

this is the third time i rewatched this vid

You really leaked the entire comic book 1 day before release date?..

Please do more breakdown

I hope we get an absolute killer moth.

Only two things I liked here were Black Mask and Alfred. The rest of the characters/plot were meh, especially Joker

This is not for me. It still recognize that what's going on is very cool. The art is also stellar.

He just cut a dudes arm off....

11:30 Alfred blew up the stairs not Batman

It's as if they made this batman so Snyder could have an excuse for BVS

O want It, now!!!!!

Scott snyder you beast

YESSSSSSS

Bro again with the joker at the end? Like why not another villain? I definetly going to skip every panel where the joker comes out is my opinion.

Jerde Forges

I honestly still don't like the design. But the story is good so far.

Okay am I the only one who thinks the dialogue for Joker’s reveal is kinda corny? Don’t joke around this guy, “HE NEVER LAUGHS AT ANYTHING…” So we call him the Joker 🙃🤡 Like what??? 😭😭😭

I don't support race swaps here which is just more lead up to implement that stuff more in media.

Wow

Any spoilers?

👀👍🏾

You have 20 k subs and now I know why, that’s terrible

💯💯💯👍👍👍👍

This is not a banger. The story is okay but the artwork is very bad!

C'mon the first fucking issue and snyder use is fetish character Joker

where did you read it ?
