Could you imagine if all the portals opened in Endgame and then Tony’s like, “is that everyone”, then Doctor strange says “not yet.” Then suddenly, this theme just blasts throughout the theatre as Linkara comes out and fucking one shots Thanos with the magic gun
The line "Linkara stands in reality defiance, Atop the fourth wall looking down on us all" makes me think of a being brought into existence when one D.C.'s Monitors and one of Marvel's Watchers performed the fusion dance.
I heard about Linkara from Oneyplays and when I watched Kickassia, but I definitely would've been obsessed with him when I was younger. He seems cool, someone I totally would've watched back in the day.
@daphrog45 I don't have an interest in most of the stuff he talks about. Not that Linkara isn't interesting himself. It's just the material. I probably would've watched a few of his videos back then because I was a bit competent in DC or Marvel knowledge, but I was never a huge fan. 🤷♂️
@@IAMSUNLOL when he was earlier in his career he could be a bit high strung but honestly if I had to pick any late 2000s reviewers to survive to today it'd be him
+Stephen W Unfortunately not everyone on the internet has that sort of patience. Usually it's best for a intro to stick to 10-15 seconds so it's long enough to get interest but not long enough to get grating.
Linkara is easily one of my favourite Internet celebrities. Many people have criticised the inclusion of storylines and recurring characters in internet videos these days but with Linkara I'm willing to accept it. Aftyer all, he does comic books. Inter-connected stories and crossovers and recurring characters are what his chosen medium are all about, so it seems appropriate for him to include those ideas into his reviews. Plus, he's the only one who does it well.
Linkara sits down, nonetheless, and forces himself through it. A poorly written, ugly mess, but someone's gotta do it. And it's right about time he did, They made Watchmen without the slimy squid! And he'll have you know that that's pretty low, But not quite like the standards of the 90s kid! That's probably my favorite verse of the song. I'm a huge fan of Linkara's History of Power Rangers series and while at first I didn't get his Atop the Fourth Wall series, i have to say I've fallen in love with it. The theme song is awesome, Linkara's humor is top-notch, and his general snarky and cynical way of tearing apart bad comics is rely appealing to me. One more thing before I go-I am a MAN! *punch*
DarthRushy The only part of AT4W I don't really care for are the overarching stories that go alongside the review. It's cool to have a story and stuff, it's just... when he reviews a series of comics, each series of reviews should have it's own story that's separate from the other stories, that way it doesn't get confusing, because I usually dont watch every single review he does, just a series of them.
+Rocket Shark I try to make it easier for newcomers these days if they go to my site - all storyline based episodes are marked with a thing in the upper-right corner, with tags for different storyline names. ^_^ Perhaps doing a playlist might be in order for youtube...
Welcome to Atop the Fourth Wall, where bad comics burn! Linkara's gonna teach you all, a lesson you won't learn! Brodsky, you're not the smartest. Liefeld, you're not an artist! Anyone who's had a bad comic published, it could be your turn! Linkara! He is a man! Punch! Wears a purdy hat! Linkara! He's got a magic gun, where'd he purchase that?! Linkara! Coins, robots, amazons and trucks! Linkara! This comic sucks! Linkara sits down nonetheless, and forces himself through it! A poorly written, ugly mess, but someone's gotta do it. And it's right about time he did. They made "Watchmen" without the slimy squid! And he'll have you know that that's pretty low, but not quite like the standards of the 90s kid. Setting ablaze crossovers, oneshots, and tie-ins. Linkara stands, in reality, defiance. Atop the fourth wall, looking down on us all! Of course! Don't you know anything about SCIENCE?! There would be better books on his show, but Quasada sold them to Mephisto. And now there's nothing left to do, but share the scrapings at the bottom of the barrel with you! Linkara! He is a man, punch! What's that on his arm?! Linkara! Can't seem to fix the continuity alarm! Linkara! Rock N' Roll, Insano, some feller in a tux! Linkara! This comic sucks, LINKARA!
@@b3njiiisjammin608 I'm not unhealthy, I was just a bored teenager who really liked the song at the time (and still do as an adult) As far as the disliking me bit goes...meh, can't do much to change that, I am who I am and you are who you are lmao
I personally don’t have a problem with the lyrics but I can see how it could be hard to sit through for some people... that and the fact that the way the guy says “L I N K A R A !” just has me laughing.
no matter what you think about Linkara you gotta admit this is an iconic theme song it has all the trademarks of a past youtube era wheather that's a good or super cringe is up to you I guess
I cannot get this out of my head. It's brilliant! And the lyrics are very well written - I'm still impressed at the rhyming of "Setting ablaze crossovers, one-shots and tie-ins" with "Of course! Don't you know anything about science?" Of all the theme songs that made it into your videos, this one definitely deserved to win.
Vincent sang all the versions of it. The first was the original one he sent in to me, the second was a revised version in better quality, and the third is the one featured here.
One of the best personalities on youtube in my opinion, and like it or hate it what Separates Link from the other you tube personalities is the fact that he is clean for the most part and tends to keep everything at a PG-PG-13 . Plus he seems to embrace the memeness.
Alrighty, The Begging of the At4w playlist! I've been a fan since freaking amazons attack back on-"that"-website, but recently due to life events I've fallen behind the past few years. So I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna get re caught up! I plan on liking and commenting on each one as I go, but I am forgetful. Your show has gotten me through some hard times Linkara, and now that they're good, I wanna make them better! Cheers!
Happy anniversary Atop The Fourth Wall! Thank you for a year of excellent entertainment! I can't wait for the fifth year anniversary. :-) P.s.: The theme song is one of the most epic ones of all time. Seriously.
I still think that you have the best intro out of all the Channel Awesome reviewers. It's a catchy tune with awesome lyrics and one that I have admittedly sang aloud on my way from class to class in School. Heck my little brother gunner even sings the song (or at least what he knows) whenever it's on. ^^
Linkara has stated that if what went down in "One More Day" is undone, not just "they get back together" but properly *undone,* he'll go back and buy every Spider-Man comic he hasn't bought from then till whenever he said it, anyway. In the meantime, it still happened and its repercussions can still be felt. is he still on about that can't he just get OVER it

The Maximum Clonage one I can understand at 600 megs, but really you can't see the 22 Brides review? And sadly a lower-quality version is probably not possible at this time - I'm having difficulty getting the current version out, I'm afraid. =(
@Henry Gylling Yes, he meant Rob Liefield. And he's right. Well, Liefield is an artist, but he's not a good one, that's the point Liefield is just way too ridicolous 90s. You know, guns bigger than the character's arms, giant armor padding on strange and impractical places, always sneering faces, bullet belts on random locations of the body etc.
Siddiq Ismail And of course, the dreaded YOUNGBLOOD DISEASE! That which afflicts dozens of action heroes in Image comics, that forces them to squint all the time.
It's called "Atop The Fourth Wall" because "The Fourth Wall" is used in the phrase "breaking the fourth wall" when a character addresses the fact that they're fictional. (by the way, it's called the fourth wall because in plays the sets only have 3 walls and the fourth wall is what the audience is viewing through) Linkara is "atop" that fourth wall, meaning that he's between the world of fiction and our reality.
Welcome to Retsupurae, where bad LPs burn, Beef and Diabetus 'gonna teach you all, a lesson they won't learn. DSP your not the smartest, Buckley your not an artist, Anyone who's uploaded a bad LP it could be your turn.
Ditto. The theme song is always my favorite part of the video. Once I hear it it gets stuck in my head for the rest of the day. It's the same thing with the intro to the "Is It A Good Idea To Microwave This?" series. It never stops being awesome. I never skip it.
