Marvel's Most Blatant Movie Tie-in | Infinity Wars 

I mean. Yes. Sal. You could buy it. But like. Why would anyone do that?

no thank you

Aint no one buying this trash lmao

why would I do that?

Right? Its the lets see Sal taking this book to the godamn dust show

The best Comicpop episodes are the ones they discuss and analyze a good book (like the Mister Miracle episode). However, the bad comic discussions are the most fun to watch

Bro I loved when he went off about alien the comic he is pissed about that shit 😂 all valid points though

I know, right?

That would make for a great series: "Books that Sal loves, but the publisher fuck it up"

I don't know what's better. Stories they like or stories they hate lol

The worse the comic, the better the episode xD

Ya know what usually annoys me is that Sal is so cocksure and damned almost- egotistically definitive about what (in his mind) is terrible or horrible that he just calls it a 100% across-the-board trash. That doesn't leave much room for individual opinion. Just because he thinks and declare something horrible doesn't mean it is. And yeah he's smart, kinda funny and knowledgeable as heck but good Lord. Caped Joel usually has a much better & fair take on things. He's also confident in his opinion but he doesn't tell others they're stupid, which I know I've seen Sal do in the past LOL. Although I have really enjoyed where Sal gets grateful and thankful and everything else during the videos about gifts and mail unboxing. And what's further annoying on my initial topic is that the other guys on the couch here, Ben & Ethan, usually just join in and agree since they don't know nearly as much about comics and have that experience Sal does. Yeah, I guess he's the boss, but that doesn't make sense that they would bow to him in nearly topic. Sal isn't perfect and just because he has an opinion doesn't always mean it's the right interpretation, factually even. I'm saying he can be wrong even though he might not think he can and it doesn't seem like he acknowledges this very often if ever. I kind of get a little giddy whenever he's called on the carpet for being mistaken. These should have gained enough knowledge since they've been doing this for quite a while now not to follow every whim/opinion of Sal's. It's just too much sometimes. I would have assumed they have their own formulated opinions on things based on facts and not just based on and through Sal's interpretations of things. I guess what I'm saying is they don't have enough or present enough of their own nuanced educated opinion. And I'd like to hear more of that. Oh yeah and I'm only watching this video because of the topic. I generally enjoyed the series and some of it made me nostalgic for the mid-90s amalgam stuff. Sorry for the mini-rant... that aspect has just been bugging me for the longest time. The channel is great otherwise.

@@jasonpye4649 well that’s just, like, your opinion, man

@@ethanrichmond3992 naturally, Morn.

I mean... Namor kinda did twice, once during Dark Reign and the other in the lead in to Secret Wars

Wait this episode came out 9 hours ago, how did you comment a week ago?

Micahel Scally I really dislike CW2 because even if you ignore it is a bad cash cow, it is a bad take on Minority report at the end of the day. The original Civil War had issues, but it was much more cohesive.

true civil war 2 was just garbage and was a cashgrab from the very beginning

The only good think to come from Civil War 2 is The Immortal Hulk.

@@Griffnix that evens out with occupy avengers and Hawkeye being awful

Civil War 2 was a definite cash grab and Bendis' worst possible story. This book is even more so cause it feels so desperate and forgettable.

Milhouse understands that reference

I hate the stone change, making an integral artifact in marvel, Match a movies error they didn’t think through completely. Change for the sake of change.

Mission accomplished?

This comic needs to exist LOL

To add to your image if i may, we see thanos wearing a welders apron with tiny goggles and saftey gloves huntched over a grind stone. *Death walks to the doorframe clearly a figment of thanos mind* Death: honey, come back to bed. * yawn* Thanos *grumbling* yes sweetheart, just give a few minutes more. Thanos brain: pretty, pretty SHINY, SHINY!

@Wayne Stop motion Thanos: I think that's why she tried to kill me

He also needs BIG glasses like the guy that restored Woody in Toy Story 2

That line was freaking cool to cap the episode.

Like when Super Sons was ruined by Bendis's Man of Steel.

I like Gerry Duggan. He's been low key one of my favorite writers from the 2010's onward. Gerry's run on Deadpool is one of my favorite runs in comics. Guy is a good workman like writer. Not the best writer ever, or even a "superstar" writer like a Bendis or Loeb, where his name is what drives readership and not the character. But he's a guy you can rely on to get a good quality superhero comic, that respects continuity and moves the characters forward. Unfortunately, this feels like what happened to Andy Diggle's run on Daredevil. Where he had a story and endgame mapped out, then was forced by Marvel editorial to turn it into a separate summer blockbuster event and must include all these plotpoints on a checklist.

Only good thing about this event was so that Sal can trash it.

Indeed. It's even worse when titles have to reference some awful event everyone hates because it's so integral to the current status quo. It's like you can't never escape

also, that one panel of moon knight having no clue what the fuck is going on and Spiderman saying "punch whoever I punch second" was fun

It might as well not have happened. Other than Phyla and Moondragon returning, nothing else from this has been referenced or kept around.

@@mr.goblin6039Marvel did release an Infinity Warps miniseries sometime after this event, so it wasn’t complete forgotten. It was also written by Al Ewing, which means that it’s actually way better than it has any right to be.

Like when Super Sons was ruined by Bendis's Man of Steel.

@@WannabeWryter continuity is below Bendis

Soul stone

The floating head stone

The Dr. Acula stone.

The appletini stone.

The second mind stone, because bro love makes them inseparable

I heard part of this comment.

Any real comic fan should know the movies aren't following comics word for word.

@@lonniedaniels6453 Any "Real" fan should know how to be respectful other's opinions.

That and I believe Marvel doesn’t want to pay writers or artists of these classic stories. Like, I remember Jim Starlin being upset that he got payed jack squat in terms of royalties when it comes to his stuff used in the MCU. Marvel probably just doesn’t wanna pay royalties for older stories, so they just make new garbage that’s less expensive to make. Idk how any of that works, but that’s just a theory I came to think about due to how many times it’s happened.

That don’t make no sense. Reading infinity gauntlet isn’t going to change someone’s opinion of the movie.

I wish the public would do that but you know a lot of them would be like “but the movie was funnier tho!” Or “but Tom Holland is 🔥 tho” . Sad but search your feelings, you know it to be true

Happy Birthday!!

I was hoping someone else was thinking about this.

Page count doesn’t represent the quality of a book

Fun fact, 4/5 of our Star Trek: Voyager references are Tuvix

I liked Weapon Hex, but kinda just because she was two of my favorite characters combined in a fairly rad way... I aesthetically liked Ghost Panther but like, idk

@@bloodhexesillustration1977 I get that. The only thing Arachknight had going for his is his look. The story was bullshit and deserved so much better.

What is Gamora? lol

Yeah, I'm hoping that as the MCU gets into more original territory (as it is forced to pass mantles on instead of sticking to the same, popular characters) that eventually the Big 2 will put more faith in their lesser characters as they realize that audiences actually do want to see story progression.
