Owlman Origin and Full History  

So if Batman's universe has The Court of Owls, then does Owlman's universe have a Court of Bats?

Also, Batman tells Owlman this epic bit before sending him to the frozen Earth: "There is a difference between you and me. We both looked into the abyss. But when it looked back at us, you blinked."

Owlman is one of my favorite super villains

"It doesn't matter." One of my favorite Owlman moments.

The Owlman voiced by James Wood was the best Owlman and was SUPER lethal

It doesn't matter...

You do have to admit, the JLA/Avengers crossover was freaking amazing!! In fact, I'd love to see the JLU and Avengers EMH cartoons come together in a crossover. But, a fanboy can dream.

I really wish there was a owl man dlc costume in arkham knight

I really like Owlman because, like Joker, he's a nihilist - which makes for good villainy. Especially against Bats who holds that all life, even the lives of his enemies, should be protected. Woot plot :D

"we both looked into the abyss, but when it looked back at us, you blinked"

I used to watch your vids back in 2012 and man has your voice changed. You sound a lot more confident and relaxed in these now, keep it up dude!

See, that's the thing I don't get about Crisis on Two Earths. By the logic of the movie, shouldn't there be an Earth where Owlman successfully destroys Earth Prime?

I always thought Owlman's silver age costume looked pretty silly, but he was really the most intimidating member of the Earth-3 villains. He found a way to arrange things to that whether they won or lost they still won and that's a pretty good accomplishment.

The Owl Man in Crisis on Two Earths was very Dark and it was perfect. Was a very formidable foe

Knightwing, I think you might have to give up on the whole Court of Owls appearance thing in the games.

I love the pictures! Helps bring the Lore to life! Please continue to do them!

Interesting Arkham Wednesday lore video Owlman. Man, Owl is crazier than I thought.

This is the owlman story i remember: The night the wayne's were murdered we see a young Thomas Wayne Jr on his knees looking at the dead body of his mother, his father and his brother Bruce Wayne. Thomas saw the killer it was a corrupt cop Harvey Bullock. Thomas traveled the world he trained to become peak human physical condition. He was going to be a hero and fight the corruption in gotham. Instead of a bat flying into his window he got scratched by an Owl's talons that's how he knew what he needed to become. The first person he tracked down on his first night as Owlman was Harvey Bullock. Owlman dangled him off of a rooftop he wasn't going to kill him. He asked Harvey why he did it. Harvey said that he had too. The Wayne's killed Gordon's son to gain more power the Wayne's were more corrupt than anyone. This is when Owlman's world crumbled he fought against corruption bc he tought the corruption in Gotham took his parents lives. Innocent lives but realizing his parents were corrupt he finnaly realizes something else it doesn't matter. Nothing matter's. That's what he told Bullock before dropping him off of the skyscraper killing the officer. He took over gotham from the shadows with an army of talons he killed anyone who stood in his way no matter who they were hero or villain it didn't matter. He helped the crime syndicate beat the legion of justice and stop starro's invasion he kept his victims bodies as trophies because NOTHING MATTERED. (i just talked about my fav owlman origin and now i'm going to talk about the owlman from crisis across 2 earths.) He realized that humanity is nothing more than a cancer they are all corrupt. There is no good they were never good because they were human. Humanity ruined the planet allowed so many deaths. And after realizing that there were multiple earths he realized none of his choices mattered that's why he needed to make the ultimate choice the one true choice by wiping out every earth by wiping out humanity. Nothing mattered except the final choice. As batman and Owlman fought. Owlman told Batman they weren't so diffrent he told Batman that humanity is nothing more than a cancer that needed to be erased. Owlman's true goal was death and agony. He found out long ago that humanity was less than nothing. So he wanted nothing. Batman believed in the value of human life he believed that no matter how bad anyone was they deserved a second chance that's why he never killed. He had the willpower to try and give everyone a second chance no matter how bad they were. Bc he knows human life has value. Owlman thinks the exact oppisite. And then Batman wins as he ties Owlman to the earth destroying bomb Batman says his final sentence "There is a diffrence between you and me. We both looked into the abyss. But when it looked back at us, you blinked." And then Batman teleports Owlman to a diffrent earth a diffrent planet. While Batman goes back home. Owlman is still able to stop the bomb and save himself. But he doesn't do it. He smiles and then says "it doesn't matter." and then he blows up. Owlman is the true dark reflection of Batman his goals his believes are the exact oppisite. He is a true villain a true evil batman better than the batman who laughs. Better than Joker better than Prometheus better than every oppisite or evil batman you can think off. Because owlman's believes are truly the oppisite of Batman's. Batman believes in second chances and the value of human life. While Owlman sees Humanity as a disease and believes nothing they do matters.

yes that Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths movie is amazing it like the pre 52 with th doom movie and i think flash point was part of it that why we got the new 52 movies

yesss owl man!! my fave character In DC lol, well in the DC crisis of two earth's. :)

now I want to see the justice lords vs the crime syndicate

Owlman also has the power of super-hypnosis. This ability was displayed during his first appearance.

Knightwing could you do an Arkham Wednesdays video in batmans training around the world.

So and that one version Owl man it’s supposed to be a good guy but since he hurts cops he looked at as a bad guy

“ it doesn’t matter “

I don't know why but owl man reminds me of night owl from watchmen.

Your rundown was great! One note for your commentary at 13:00 - since he was fighting with a broken rib and knew he couldn't best the augmented and ruthless Owlman in a straight fight, Bruce played for time until he could catch Owlman in a second's worth of surprise, which he would - and did - use to teleport OM and the bomb elsewhere. Cheers!

Owlman is the coolest 🦉

Owlman is one of my favorite Alternate Versions of Batman. Don't you agree with me?

Justice League: Crisis on Two Earth's has the best version of Owlman

I've made Crime Syndicate versions of my Fan made Justice League Team, not just the ones from Crisis on Two Earths movie, but all of the members of my team.

k wing you have to be one of the best of the best

So this has nothing to do with Owlman in Watchmen? Dam i thought they were the same person.

Lol Kwing makes Arkham Batman look like Moon Knight. He rarely dodges the attacks, he just lets himself get hit

#ArkhamWednesdays Can you do a lore video on Pre 52 Nightwing like who he has beaten in fights stuff like that

Owlman isn't a psychopath . he's just fucking right ( it doesn't matter, nothing matters ... )

Owl man is so much cooler than batman...

Dwayne Mcduffie was a great writer!!

Something that always bothered me when watching the movie was that if there are infinite earths where every decision is made, then there should be infinite Owlmen that either convinces Batman to join his cause, they never confront each other, and/or defeats Batman outright, thus blowing up the one and only Earth Prime. That being the case, no matter what Earth Prime is destroyed and everything ceases to exist.

"Try Getting Reservations at Dorsia Now Bruce you sick F ahhhh!" - Owlman

I wish James Woods wasn't too sensitive to the artificialstandings of some studios, he is such a talented voice actor and made Owl Man so shilling.

like Night Hawk in Avengers Assemble season 2 which he was like Owl Man of Justice League Crisis of the two earth. But the Owl man in Batman the Brave and Bold he reasemble Night Hawk

9:10, so the grant morrison owlman, Bruce was his brother.... and Martha his mom, thomas was there father.

in the opposite side of Earth Aqua-man is Seaking.

13:26 Oh what's really going to bake your noodle is... I think what he was saying was the destruction of Earth Prime was inevitable. Therefore why sweat it. There are a near infinite (or possibly actually infinite) number of Owl Men that have almost the identical goal to his... and only one of them has to succeed. It's going to happen sooner or later. Besides which even if he had stopped the bomb he's trapped there with no dimension... shift... thingy and he's going to die no matter what. One of his copies will get it done for him.

Crisis on two earths to me is the best adaption of comics

Do a utility belt lore please I would loveeeeeeee if u did thanks a bunch

Dwayne was awesome :)

Is you pause it at the pic of all te batmen, you see the 2005 one,new adventures,dark knight returns, super friends and batman beyond bats

If you listen in arkham origins and the ace chemicals trailer for arkham knight, the two voice actors sound extremely alike I think he is the knight just listen very carefully and hopefully kwing sees this and takes it into consideration to try and show why I could be wrong or right.....

Owlman actually showed up in an issue of Justice League, talking to Lex Luthor(post forever evil)

Why is it bad that a married supervillain who murders and kills innocent people messes around with Owlman? I mean...that is the least of her crimes. Weird thing to single out as bad.

i kinda remember watching that episode of batman the brave & the bolt where owlman appears if they think of making another batman game the main antagonists should be owlman

Remember when this guy almost destroyed Lucifer and god along with the existence of existence?

Kwing should do a arkham Wednesdays on scarecrow

I remember when I saw crisis on two earths it was the first time I saw firestorm

11:40 ..."my friend here is wicked smaht"

In his dreams batman wants to be owlman

Kwing do you do all the commentary in post or during the gameplay.

I found out I missed my favorite tv show then I say it doesn't matter cause a different universe I watched it

man i wish there was a comic book that shows owlman origins

Hey kwings great videos

i thought owlman was a hero! wait is he connected too the one from that other movie? you know the one with dr Manhatten and stuff

YES I LOVE OWL MAN!

I wished u talked about his side kick talon

Thanks to you Kwing, i think i may have an idea who the new Earth 2 Batman is xD

Yeah KWing... Like Muhammad Ali said in the comments, Owlman appears in Justice League #34 with Luthor!!

Heh, funny thought. Owlman kicking the crap out of Superboy Prime.

Love your vids man

I miss Dwayne to Kwing :(

Owlman is a anti-villian.

Owing by the sound of it, do you not like brave and the bold and if so why, to be honest I thought it was okay.

Crisis on Two Earths was a great movie. DC really needs to put their animated stuff out there further and abandon the trash they’ve had in theaters. Suicide squad is the PERFECT example. The Will Smith movie was so stupid but holy crap the animated movie had me watching it so many times.

this kinda confused me.... i enjoy dc but this multiverse can give you a headache. lol. RIP Dwayne Duffie!

which is the comic where aquaman and martian manhunter fight the crime syndicate? i wanna read that lol.

You should do the Mad Hatter!!!

But something doesn't add up if jla are made up of matter why don't they explode in earth 3 vice versa

batman was trained by ras al ghul , the clan of assasins . i think owlman was traied by the court of owls like talon way . what do you think

hey the court of owls wasn't in arkham knight so can you please do the lore?

#ArkhamWednesday hey kwing for one of ur next arkham Wednesdays could you tell us about when grayson had to become the bat, and how dent also had his own bat costume. Dents costume was cool looking

Wasn't there an Owlman in the New 52's City of Owls storyline? I don't know if he was ever referenced as such but he looked pretty close to the Owlman we know, and he claimed to be Thomas Wayne Jr.

I've always wondered about mr. owl man. Can you do a vid summarizing a little about every earth/world

do poison ivy in honor of her new look in arkham knight plz

Does Owlman have a Owlgirl.

Wohwohwoh, is that Owlman fighting Jason Todd on the cover of 31 Countdown? What happened there?

awesome

I got a question, Who is the better villain, The Joker or OwlMan?

kNIGHTWING01 what is your favorite batman skin in Batman Arkham Origins

Idk if it was me but I did a while ago

In my opinion arkham knight is going to be like owlman

...Aquaman was actually COOL? Interesting.

Good job kwing

Great videos

Wonder if that means there's a Man Owl too

vampire batman

What about Nite Owl? From Watch Men

If the multiverse thing existed earth prime would have been bombed by an owlman who beat batman and the world is over, this is why dc confuses me but i still love them for that verry reason

Where is Arkham Knight trailer thoughts

i love Owlman from the animated movie, so freaking evil, this was an awesome vid dude

I found y'all when u were still making Arkham City videos. I remember being very happy that I found Christian, nerds like me! 😃😂
