Comic Book Noob Reacts To Injustice Year 1 To 5 - Full Story For The First Time! | Comicstorian 

RIP Benny, the community misses him greatly.

Once you dive into Superman? You'll see Jimmy is one of Supermans best supporting characters. The young best friend of Clark and Superman who's a photographer for the Daily Planet, Lois Lanes choice to drag into her adventures, gets into weird sci-fi adventures, and pulls one of Supermans villains as his girlfriend.

Red Robin is Tim Drake and Superboy is a clone of Superman, but also half human.

When my dad passed, I really didn’t have anyone to talk to about what was happening in the superhero landscape. There were Facebook groups and whatnot but it wasn’t the same. He was my comic source and discussion. And then I found Benny and therefore and Comics explained ,comic Drake, comic pop, casually comics and so on. Benny opened up a world and this wonderful new community on this

Plastic Man being the MVP as always. Also, R.I.P Benny "Comicstorian" Potter. At least for me, no one else tells these comic stories the way he does. Its always so engaging and fun to listen to.

11:37 "Nightwing asks if he is Okay" Man these 2 have a beautiful history, I can't even begin to explain.

I would say the best way to find out who Superboy is, is watching the first couple of episodes of Young Justice

RIP Benny "Comicstorian" Potter.

DUDE LMAO I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN SUPERMAN TWEETED BATMAN WAS BRUCE

Superman- Clark Kent. Everyone knows him Supergirl- Clark Kent’s Cousin. She is also sent to earth but was in stasis until she was found Power Girl- Supergirl from another world. Or sometimes supergirls clone. Just know she is a variation of Supergirl Superboy 1: A clone of Superman and Lex Luthor Superboy 2: Superman Biological Son Superboy Prime: A Superman from another universe that is both immeasurably powerful and crazy. He is a villain. Steel: A kind of Superman Iron man fusion. Superman died in the comics and this man decided to take up the mantle and made a Superman suit. Superman returned but this guy became his own hero Krypto: Superman’s Dog that has powers Streaky: Supergirls Cat with powers Lor Zod: The son of General Zodd that was raised by Superman and Lois. He grew up to be a hero regardless of his true heritage. Most of these don’t matter and I probably missed a few but here’s the Superman family

47:20 Alfred kicked Superman so hard his shoes exploded

51:48 Zatanna Zatara , She is Bruce Wayne's childhood friend and has also been his love interest . She is a magician.

It's not literally a perfect world. That's just something Comicstorian said to show that things are looking great. In a real perfect world, there would be no need for Superheroes.

Mr mxzptlk (the guy who impersonated the Spectre in this one) is a superman villain that has the ability to bend reality according to his will. It's funny because he has so much power that he can erase darkseid from existence with just a thought. He could conquer the entire universe if he wanted to, but he just uses his powers only to pull pranks on the man of steel just because "it is fun". That's literally his whole gimmick.

The greatest to ever do it, despite whatever anybody had to say about the type of content he made. You’re gonna love his other videos it’s like watching movies.

Injustice story in a nutshell. Batman fails for 5 years straight, then superman saves the day lmao. Everytime batman had a plan and massive help, supermans plot armor is untouchable

Rest In Peace Benny. He’s the reason I’ve never bought a comic book, he’s the GOAT

Mr. Mxy is a 5th Dimensional Imp. The 5th dimension in DC being Imagination. He literally has the power of imagination allowing him to do almost anything he wants. Most of the time he's just a nuisance to Superman and isn't really a threat. But this time, he's really in it to fight. Trigon is also one of the most powerful beings in all of DC so a fight between the two has the potential to destroy the multiverse.

I appreciate you covering this, I know I recommended it a few videos back but i could never have seen his death coming. Let us celebrate one of his greatest coverings brother, Injustice being covered by him is truly a wonderful piece.

Comicstorian, while i didnt watch him a whole lot later in my life, was such a massive part of why i got into comics as much as i did. I genuinely cant even process how someone that changed my life so much just suddenly is gone one day.

This video failed to mention one plot. When Nightwing died, Superman asked Catwoman to comfort Bruce. When Selina arrived in the Batcave, she saw Alfred was moaning, while bruce kept punching a wall or something with blood all around his fists. Selina gave Bruce a hug and for the first time bruce cried in front of Selina. Such a sad moment for batman.

I truly was heartbroken when I heard the tragic news, but Benny Potter, aka Comicstorian, was a pillar of the comic book community and was a major influence for getting me into comics to begin with and making me love these rich stories full of incredible characters, and not only did he get me to appreciate comics but hundreds of thousands, even millions of others to love them too. His videos and audio narration didn't just make learning about these stories fun he truly made you feel like you were experiencing a movie and hearing how much passion and love he put into his voice in countless videos makes his passing all the more heartbreaking. Life is far too cruel and if anything we need to remember to appreciate what we have and appreciate the people who we love/who love you and spend time with them. My deepest condolences to his wife Nathalie, his friends and family. I truly hope you are resting well Ben you were a true superhero to us all. RIP Ben Potter❤🙏🕊#Comicstorian

Superboy is a clone of Superman that's half Superman DNA and half Lex Luthor DNA

Rest In Peace to you, Benny Potter A.K.A. Comicstorian⚰🙏👼☀👼🙏⚰

I've watched him for years, but stopped some time ago, gradually, perhaps just due to the RU-vid algorithm (I rarely subscribe to channels even if I watch most of their stuff). I'm not only surprised that this happened but also that this is how I found out. Damn. RIP Benny Potter. I wonder if Rob (Comics Explained) is doing okay. From what I've seen they were good friends.

I highly recommend learning about the story known as Kingdom Come its very similar to Injustice with the Joker killing Lois, but I enjoy it way more than Injustice personally also the art by Alex Ross is absolutely god like

I love INJUSTICE but something you need to understand is that the characters of Batman and basically every superhero on Superman's side aren't really themselves. INJUSTICE comics have phenomenal story telling with great character work INJUSTICE comics' storylines are fundamentally impossible without character assassinations (complete misunderstandings of characters and/or disregarding of their traits) just know that the INJUSTICE version of a character should not be your definitive take on a character. the characters they have are great but are not like the characters in other continuities. Some characters are good at representing the already existing versions of themselves like Green Arrow, Jim Gordon, and Nightwing but characters like Superman, Wonder Woman and Hal are completely different character compared to their main continuity counterparts. INJUSTICE 2 introduces characters that are more accurate to themselves, but you know continues with there already establish versions of their characters too obviously

Been a Comicstorian fan for a while now. It’s nice ti know that he’s still putting people into comics. Rip Benny

Goodbye Benny. Thank you for the memories and entertainment. You will be missed

Also yeah Plasticman is insane dude. He acts a lot like Deadpool or Spider-Man except he's as you said "like Mr Fantastic" except he's many times stronfer and more powerful. So much so current Batman (i think its current Batman) has gone on to say that he has no contingency for Plastic Man and just prays he never turns evil. Because he could actually kill them all easily. And when you know that Injustice Superman is far weaker then mainline comic Superman that means that that's an insanely powerful force leaning towards (but sadly not QUITE on) Batman's side

Dr. Fate and The Specter are two of DC's absolute DAWGS! Dr. Fate is a very powerful magic user who represents the God of Fate. In the comics, Dr. Fate once had power to rival The Presence(DC's God). The Specter is straight up the living embodiment of The Presence's wrath and vengeance. Yeah, once we got to the magic users, some real heavy hitters started to get involved. R.I.P Benny. I remember watching his videos pulling all nighters.

I don't know if anyone has explained it yet, but Jimmy Olsen is superman's best friend, superboy is a teenage clone of superman with some of lex Luther's DNA, Red Robin is Tim drake aka the third robin, Zatanna is a magical superhero who's secret identity is a Vegas stage magician, the Specter is basically the wrath of God (emphasis on the capital G) in human form, Etrigan is a demon usually fused with jason blood trying to redeem both of them and he has a thing for rhyming, Mr mxypltlk is a magical imp/chaos god from the 5th dimension who loves to fuck with superman (Edit to add more he had questions about)

It’s still hard for me to even believe. This guy was my childhood I wouldn’t be the same person if this guy didn’t introduce me to comics. RIP we lost a legend and I feel so bad for his family and friends hope they’re ok.

RIP Benny the goat if it wasn’t for him, I never would’ve gotten into comics ❤

12:40 Superman also said at this point: "You're not mourning for Metropolis, not for Lois. You're mourning for him. You're upset because I took him from you. You loved him, didn't you? Your sworn enemy. Two of you played stupid twisted games between you and people died"

21:00 that version of Superboy, Conner Kent/ Kon El is a a clone of Superman with the DNA of lex Luther, not to be confused with Superman’s Son, Jon Kent who also has the name Superboy. Also Red Robin is Tim Drake, the third Robin.

This was the first video i watched of his to RIP to the goat Benny missed but not forgotten

rip dude was apart of my childhood i remember coming home from school putting on one of his videos

RIP comicstorian you'll be in my heart and Blaze your so kind hearted I enjoy your reaction videos and playing games

2:13:40 "this is a mess" perfectly sums up the entire war of Injustice. By the end everyone is emotionally and physically exhausted.

21:49 red robin is Tim drake the third robin who became red robin when Damian became robin

RIP Benny. My condolences to his family and friends. They should take all the time they need

Benny was a true legend May him rest in peace

Talking about the video, kind of wild that your first approach to Superman is Injustice. The writer (Tom Taylor) did try to give depth to the story, since the approach in the game was just "Superman goes bad", so he offered justification in the comic. I would recommend "Kindom Come" to see a different approach of "what happens when Superman loses hope" (spoilers: he doesn't rule the Earth).

🚨Btw Blaze🚨 The Injustice series takes a lot of liberties on these characters belif and morals, I'm only saying this cause Injustice hurt how people saw these characters especially Wonder Women :p just think of it as stupid fun Injustice sucks lol

1:24:16 The Spectre is God's Vengeance, an extension of The Presence, the one most powerful being that oversees all of DC.

Bruh I ain't realized this was the comicstorian review. RIP Benny there's an entire community mourning you and carrying on the legacy and your good work.

This version of Damian is still on the ideas of the league of assassins.

RIP Benny, he was one of my main sources for comic book stuff, finding out about his passing hit hard. In terms of other injustice comics, there's Year Zero, which is a prequel to the comics, Year 6/Ground Zero, which covers the events of the game, Injustice 2, which covers the events between Injustice 1 & 2, and Injustice vs Masters of the Universe, which is a He-Man crossover sequel taking olace after the Superman ending in Injustice 2. There's also the Injustice animated movie, which is a different universe that follows similar events, but is its own take of things with... its own ups and downs. XD Superboy is a clone of Superman & Lex Luthor, basically their son? XD He was created after Doomsday seemingly killed Superman as a way for Lex to replace him.

Jimmy is the very 1st friend Superman made in Metropolis. They're also co-workers for the Daily Planet.

RIP Benny comicstorian, I honestly just found out from u

R.I.P Benny. He introduced me to a lot of my knowledge about comics he gave me access to comics when I couldn't have any. I've been watching his content around 2016/2017 I loved everything he did To me no one did comic retellings as entertaining as he did. My Condolences goes out to his wife and Family.

I will say, in John Stewart’s defense, he hadn’t been on earth for a very long time so he probably had no idea what Superman had been doing since his last visit. so given that context, I think it’s understandable that he would think it’s crazy that the guardians are going to arrest Superman for “saving the world” since he doesn’t have the proper proper context on what Superman is doing

I'm writing a superhero series, and Benny has been helping me through his channel for years. Teaching me about different superpowers, introducing me to cool side characters, showing me how to make a superhero fight make sense, etc.

The stuff with Zatanna and Constantine is actually pretty cool. They're part of a series called "Justice League Dark", and it's worth checking out. Zatanna especially has a bunch of great and crazy stuff that's worth checking out and deserving of more attention.

This was a nice tribute; also Red Robin is Tim Drake, the third Robin after Jason Todd and before Damien Wayne.

Rip Benny he helped me get into green lantern comics

spent so many highschool nights years ago falling asleep to his podcasts. a true pillar of the comic book youtube community, he'll be missed

I’ve seen his videos on my recommended every once in a while and though I’ve never really watched his videos it is still very sad that he has passed. May he rest in peace.

Harley Quinn once said: Alfred knocked your freakin ass out.

He basically just has the injustice animated movie left and he’s basically caught up

RIP Benry, please watch moreof his vids like Injustice 2 is also really great.

It’s never directly confirmed, but it’s heavily implied that Superman let Victor Zsasz out of prison to execute Alfred simply for not falling in line. Despite everything, Superman has done in this universe somehow this is one of the most horrific. He was just a kind old man standing up for his Son, Bruce.

Comicstorian is the backbone of all my comic knowledge

RIP He got me into the actual comics and I watched him for years.

I've been watching comicstorian for 6 years, I miss him so much He made comics more fun

Super boy is a clone of Superman, but at first since his cloning wasn’t complete he didn’t get all of superman’s powers.

Please do injustice 2 comcstorian was a artist and a kind man he would've wanted ppl to be happy to see his work

I had no idea comicstorian passed away until I clicked on this video.

Everybodys gangsta until Alfred shows up with the pill in his system

So glad you dug this. I wondered when I suggested it if it was a bit too much in the weeds and not streamlined enough

The injustice comic series was the first video of his I watched too Man that hurts me so much to hear that he's gone God I am seriously going to miss him may rest in peace blaze 😔🕊️

1:39:31 Mr. Mxyzptlk is an imp from the 5th dimension, an enemy of Superman and one of DC's most powerful beings, but the thing that makes him such an amazing character is that he uses his infinite power just to make pranks and make fun of Superman! They have this deal in which he makes all the chaos he wants until Superman tricks him to say his own name backwards, if he does, Mxys will transform everything back to normal, go back to his dimension and come back every 3 months, it is a lot of fun and I really like that he doesn't use his powers to take over, he could easily snap his fingers and destroy Superman with a single thought, but he's not interested in that at all, he just wanna have the time of his life. P.S: You heard of Bat-Mite in the full history of Batman video, and he's also from the same dimension as Mr. Mxyzptlk.

Couple of things I gotta say about this comic series. But first I will answer your question about Superboy. - Superboy is a clone of Superman, created by ARGUS (I think) from Superman's blood. But due to it's contamination or too little amounts of it, the sponsor of this project donated his blood - Lex Luthor. So yeah, Superboy technically has Clark and Lex as fathers. So, no things about the comics and it's place in the timeline of Injustice: - The Arkham scene was retconned in Injustice 2. Instead of that fight from the comic, it was replaced with Damien killing Zsasz in the prison after Batman fought with Superman. - Scarecrow was shown to be dead in this comic, yet he was alive and well in Injustice 2. Another retcon made by the game. I might've forgot other things from the comic that was different, but with the rest, Injustice 2 mentioned events from the comics quite accurately. But this is when I learned that tie-in comics to a franchise are considered as secondary in canon and WILL be retconned if they will limit writers of wider media too hard.

super boy is a half clone of superman, not quite as powerful, but he's a mainstay of titans and young justice

This was the first ever video I watched by comicstorian

One of yt legends gone forever. Hard to believe. Hope he rests easy

Definetly need more long comicstorian videos

May comicstorian rest in peace He is the best comic recap person

Benny also made videos on the Mortal Kombat X comics. They take place somewhere after Johnny's chapter and after Scorpion, Sub Zero, and Jax were free from Quan Chi's control. The comics are semi canon, but they're still pretty cool

Love this story and comicstorians reading of it

Rip Benny U.S. vet and comic bro we should have never lost him.😢

Joker probably bought the submarine off of Warstock like I bought mine😸

jimmy is supermans best friend and superboy is a clone with superman and lex luthor dna, his name is kon el/connor kent, i love him :D, hes in some animated movies and series

I need a bodyguard like Alfred off the perc

RIP benny, we'll all miss him

wonder woman is not zeus daughter that was a retcon originally she was made of clay and blessed by the gods

Green Lantern is strong but he's nowhere near Superman's level. His weakness is his ring. Even Batman was able to casually steal Green Lantern's ring in a blink of an eye. How much quicker would it be for Superman to do?

Alfred is badass! He also shot the predator in the chest with an elephant gun!

I suggest checking out DCeased or his Agent Venom videos

He was the best have known his channel, even when he had mangastorian which he took off rip benny

He was such an awesome youtuber and he probably was my go too with comics

RIP Benny amazing youtuber may he rest in peace.

I really hope you watch videos about the actual version of Superman from the comics as well. I enjoyed injustice when it came out but I'm a little tired of the concept.

sheesh so much still to learn and watch like Lantern corps characters events and so on anyway cool videos and reaction goodluck to ya

Watch the ENTIRE Story of a beloved DC cartoon show named "Young Justice" and you will know everything about "The Boy of Steel" Superboy. Can you do that?

all of it !!! oh hell yea blaze u da goat

rip my nigga Benny bro.

rip benny man thats so sad hes the reason im into comics and love the flash man ima miss him so much

Before anything else, RIP to the legend. I don't really read many comics, but i've consumed a decent ammount of videos talking about comic storylines, i feel. And now after having finally seen what Injustice is all about ...... I mean, it's aight 😂 Like, a bit too tryhard for my liking. I already got issues with it with Superman going full dictator. SUPERMAN. S U P E R M A N. Kinda crazy to choose him, one of the kindest and strongest heroes.... Alas Honestly, i think you should really consider reacting to the full story of Secret Wars, that one really had me by the balls all the way through and i definitely wanna read it eventually, even knowing what the story is already
