I just had a random thought: So, we've seen plenty of (19)90's Kid, and thanks to these strange comics we've also met 2090's Kid. So, if someone Patreons Louis to review, like, one of the original Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland comics or something similarly really old, could we potentially see 1890's Kid? "SIIIIIIIIR!!! That was the most enrapturing experience since I took my sweetheart for a ride on Mister Ferris' brand new Observation Wheel at the World's Columbian Expositiooooon!" And yet somehow he'd probably still understand and use the exclamation "Sewing Machine!"
"they're going to be really mad at you." "you'll see but no one else will." My friends. almost a year later and we now know this was foreshadowing for A voice in the Dark. Well played Linkara, well played.
Huh I actually literally just commented on that before coming down here to read this XD Great minds, huh? But yeah, irons can also be slang for handcuffs, manacles or shackles. Or really any metal restraints. as in "clap him in irons!"
August 6, 2018: "They are going to be REALLY mad at you" huh, I wonder what that's referring to. June 20, 2019 (A Voice From the Dark Part 4): Oh. Oooooooooh.
I've worked retail for over 10 years and trust me, Linkara, there are DEFINITELY people who seem to think we keep all the "best" product back away where they can't buy it.
I can't help but laugh at Ravage 2099, because I feel like it's supposed to be a parody of this genre of comics, even if that's not actually the case. I really hope to see more reviews of Ravage 2099 in the near future, that would be totally SEWING MACHINE! ...also, that Ghost Rider 2099 you teased at in your All-New Ghost Rider review.
Oh man, so much foreshadowing. It's gotta be for the anniversary storyline, right? Also, I can't believe you used the R word. That is so not sewing machine.
7:34 Actually Linkara that was an example of an anachronistic slang. Iron is a 19th Century slang word for a Pistol, admittedly it's odd use of it as Iron is usually used to reefer to a revolver and not a Semi-Automatic Pistol.
The thing with Ravage is that so much changed over the course of the first few issues, the character we see here is nothing like what he becomes in a very short time. The first couple of issues are almost a bait and switch.
This is the first episode of AT4W that I'm watching on my PS4. I'm saying that, because I think it's awesome to watch my favorite web shows on my TV. Nice job on the Paul Ryan joke. Ravage has a garbage truck as his mode or transportation? ...$20 says that his attack phrase is *"GARBAGE DAY!"* That laser wand reminds me of the one Dr. Linksano made for you back during the Battle for Bludhaven 3-part review. I already know that Ravage 2099 will NEVER appear in Marvel Cinematic Universe 2099.
Okay we got some juicy hints to some future events:- Linkara gets a new outfit Someone will be sorry to Linkara over something he did to him Linkara will do somthing that will make others upset with him Let the fan theories begin ^^
@@AT4W I know, I just find it darkly humorous when fiction accidentally predicts real events. Though I'm guessing he still hasn't actually apologised though.
20:53-20:57 90s Dude: Also, try to go easy on him. He is truly sorry about it. Linkara: Who? Me after watching 'The Clone Saga Storyline': Well obviously, he was talking about Linksano.
The Rambo 20 film poster reminds me of the Ghostbusters 10 gag from the episode "Future Shock" of Godzilla the Series, where they end up in a post apocalyptic future where flying triceratops monsters called Dragma rule the earth, but at least its a timeline where the Ghostbusters film franchise managed to produce a successful string of sequels after part 2 in place of one bad reboot XD
Marvel Method clearly at work here. A disinterested Stan was clearly just adding dialogue to a 90's comic artist's 90's interpretation of whatever vague plot he came up with.
You really need to teach 90's Dude how to tell you information from the future. Vague foreshadowing is the least helpful way he could tell you this stuff.
Actually, the Irons thing makes sense as slang for guns. Mainly because it seems to have come from the older term of "shooting irons" which is already slang for pistols, originating from westerns...
Dude, "Drop the irons" isn't future slang. Calling guns "shooting irons" or just "irons" is dates back at least to the old west. So, if anything it's some really old-timey slang for 2099.
3:22 Heh, love the Mortal Kombat movie reference... 3:42... okay, now that is basically a melted version of a Shokan (human/dragon hybrid, Goro's race).
You know what'd be cool? If it was revealed that Deathstryk is actually Magneto in disguise, affected by radiation so he was both a mutant AND a mutroid. I mean, his characterization is basically identical anyway.
"Iron" has always been slang for "gun". Check a potboiler or two sometime from the 40's. Also, "ventilate" has also been a slang for shooting someone for a long long time, too.
All these years avoiding "the more colorful swear words" and you just drop a hard Robbatussen on a guy Are you even the Linkara we know? What have you done with him you monster
I feel oddly compelled that "iron" used to reference guns is not a new bit of slang they made up, or at least it was used in reference to guns before they made it up. I point you to the song "Big Iron" by Marty Robbins (which I mostly know about thanks to Fallout New Vegas). A man in the song has a "big iron" on his hip, which he explicitly uses to shoot an outlaw.
Nash 2099: "Oh boy, this is quite the story. Former Alchemax Eco-Patrol executive makes a superhero costume out of garbage, assaults several Eco-Patrol officers, robs Alchemax facilities and rams a garbage truck into a store to steal a bulletproof vest. I keep telling you people New York these days is like Florida in the 2010s, but no one believes me!" I love that Stormer shares his name with one of the Misfits from Jem. Also, the guys using "ventilate" are not really future slang, at least not in my book since I've seen other shows and whatnot use it has a term meaning, "fill someone full of bullet holes".
Actually, bullet proof vests and armor plating MIGHT be illegal in Canada without a special licence, along with tasers, pepper spray, night vision goggles/cameras and most fire arms.
Cool, a new "Because poor literacy is, kewl" graphic. Kinda miss the other one though. The mishmashed letters helped make the misplellings stand out more. Eh its still pretty good
Fun fact that has to do with 2099 but not this comic... Because it sucks: Did you know that Deadpool has his own 2099 counterpart now? In the pages of Deadpool, in between story arcs, they introduced Deadpool 2099, who in this world is the daughter of Wade Wilson and Shiklah (Ellie is still around, they’re half sisters). At some point, Shiklah had attempted to take over the Earth, resulting in Wade enlisting many of Marvel’s heroes to take her down, but time has not been kind to him and his memory of certain things, including what he did with Shiklah, is hazzy. As such, the new Deadpool, named Warda Wilson, pretty much hates her father and keeps him locked up in an apartment watching C-Span and other talk shows till he tells her where Shiklah is. It’s actually a very good story and I would highly recommend it if your interested in Deadpool or 2099.
That description for the next episode, before you revealed it would be more Kool-Aid Man, had me thinking you must have found a secret issue of Marville.
I don't know what is more terrifying: the presence of cartoony evil politicians in the world state coughTrumpcough, or the fact that there's a comic about Kool-Aid Man. Also, I thought 90s Kid changed his name after the last fight with the Entity.
the blaster thing is probably cause I remember this whole thing in the 90s and early 2000s where sci fi settings decided a good way to sound sci fi is to call things what they are. So, instead of firearm or such, "kinetic blaster." Or when you're trying to sound like slang, be extra confusing by shortening things like that to just one word, like "blaster."
Man, I love this channel ,where you could look back at the 90's and wonder what the hell comicbook writers was smoking when they come up with characters like Ravage.
90's kid: time traveler who thinks it's good foreshadowing if he doesn't give any further details. To be honest, I think 2099 90's kid would give better details than the normal one.......and I like him because HE'S TOTALLY KLEENEX, MAN! TOTALLY KLEENEX!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone else notice that the hero who's supposed to be saving the environment (in a "stop the evil polluting corporation that's bad" kind of way, but I digress) is driving around in a truck that should be horrifically fuel inefficient by his time's standards?
