I recently read Infinite Crisis, and in one scene, Chemo says gg just before being thrown out of a plane and literally destroying the city of Nightwing, dying as well. Chemo's last words were Gg. Chemo is a true gamer. be like chemo
F.A.Q. • What about Daniel West?: He lost a LOT of speed before joining the Squad. He literally blew out his knee just trying to run. • What about Polka Dot Man?: He wasn't on the Squad in the comics.
True story: King Shark is a shark, and Solomon Grundy was born on a Monday. Also, there's a nice reference to the actual strongest DC character at 14:58.
Galaxy-Brain Idea: James Gunn will guest-star as himself in the next Suicide Squad movie. There will be no explanation for his presence and he will die in the first five minutes.
With the release of Venom: Let There Be Carnage could we have a video on the Klyntar? This thought came to me cause they can do a lot of things people don’t talk about, like being able to fuse into a new Symbiote with Hybrid, or how they can take powers from their hosts (like if they attached to electro would they get electrokinesis?)
About characters in comics breaking the fourth wall: Over at Marvel She-Hulk was already breaking that thing in the 70's, so Deadpool wasn't even their first character to do that.
So did She-Hulk or Ambush Bug come first with the whole fourth wall breaking comedy bit? As far as I can tell it was Jennifer but I wouldn’t mind second opinions!
Looks like Ambush Bug was created in Dec. 1982, and She-Hulk was created in Feb. 1980. She-Hulk didn't start breaking the fourth wall until John Byrne's run in 1989 (Sensational She-Hulk). Ambush Bug has few appearances when he's first created, but his first two issues that he appears in have no fourth wall breaks; it's not until his third appearance, Action Comics #560 in Oct. 1984, that he mentions the writer of the comic by last name (Giffen). So, Ambush Bug was created later, but he broke the fourth wall first. However, She-Hulk's breaking of the fourth wall is more iconic and better-written.
@@nathancarter8239 I have runs of both She Hulk and Ambush Bug. I'm not sure I can agree with "better written". They were written with different intent. She Hulk was a fourth wall breaker within a relatively serious narrative. Ambush Bug was the outsider pointing out the absurdity of his world (Meepo, anyone?). There was almost no narrative intent. Different kinds of stories.
Who will be the next strongest Suicide Squad member... You... YOU will be the next strongest! (Not me, the last West who was kept having horrible leg injuries)
I absolutely love the fact that Amanda Waller had to literally PAY Lobo to be on the suicide squad which also means that he’s the only member on the team who is “technically” a free man with the actual salary amongst a whole roster full of supervillain convicts!!🤣👌
13:36 He's sort of like when Arale from Dr. Slump was brought into Dragon Ball Super lol. Well, aside from the fact that Vegeta quickly realized what was going on himself, pointing out several times that she's a comedy manga character. Wasn't the best-written episode... (didn't help that Goku completely forgot that he and Arale met in the General Blue saga of the original Dragon Ball)
4:09 Ah yes I remember this ahole from Superman vs the Elite and CW Supergirl. Though he didn't really have powers of his own in the later, aside from somehow turning J'onn's one-way telepathy into a two-way communication. Instead he used a Legion Flight Ring and a powerful magical Martian artifact called the Staff of H'ronmeer.
I hope you do the weirdest members of the Suicide Squad in the future (especially with the Banana Split being a part of the squad, i'm not making that one up)
THANK YOU thank you thank you! for pointing out Ambush Bug's precedence as the fourth wall breaking comment character. I have said for years and years that Deadpool is the spiritual descendant of Ambush Bug, not Deathstroke. DP's name and occupation may be Wade Wilson homages, but his zeitgeist is 100% Irwin Schwab.
I swear in the comics that every Killer Frosts are all heat vampire and not just Catlin Snow, especially Louise Lincoln who was thrown into the sun and was able to not only survive it, but literally enjoy it due to the heat and even Firestorm states that Louise Lincoln could destroy the sun.
@Comic Drake btw Manchester Black didn't block probes from Martian Manhunter, he had Lex Luthor dodge them. This is actually shown to be through erasing Lexs memory of the event in question in a different comic. So Manchester neeve actually blocked Manhunter, just evaded the probe by eleimating the information the probe was looking for. Superman later confirmed that he believes Martian Manhunter's telepathy capable of blocking out Manchester.
Wow I learned a lot from this video. Like I thought Manchester black was originally made for the direct to DVD movie cuz I could never find any comics about him aside from that one superman rebirth comic where he becomes a cow. I also didn’t know about match or that much about parasite.
This was an impressive vid (god reading all those comics ugh) but i have one who should have been there, one extra, one teeensy lil ad and thats the goat himself Black Adam. Like dude took one the whole jsa/jla once hes serious business and hes in here, 12:48, Hes right there. xD Anyway outside of that little thing i enjoyed this vid keep em coming Drake :)
I'm still pretty new myself, but any comic, really. Find a hero you like and go from there. I started with The Flash and Suicide Squad. Eventually you'll see a cameo of another character and be like "wow, they're cool. I wanna read more about them" and pick something up about them.
Pick a character and then search up their best comics/easiest comics for beginners to get into. I started with Batman: Year One and just went from there!
If you’re into suicide squad specifically, I’d say ostranders run is a great place to start. If your just taking about comics In general, it’s really up to you
Go to your public library. They almost certainly have trade paperbacks, which tend to collect the more iconic stories. Thumb though a few to find things that appeal to you. Easiest and least expensive way to dip your toe into the pool, er ocean.
I think it’s the 4-star Dragon Ball. He also has the Ouroboros mark from FMA in column 2, between the Lantern logo and Wonder Woman. Comic Drake, with a splash of manga for good measure.
In terms of being effective. Captain cold. The flash comics show he just did mission after mission with almost no sleep and most of the time was the only survivor
That Parasite dude would make a killer villain in a Superman film. Maybe it'll be like Spiderman3's Sandman but with radioactive blob monster experiment
Idk but for the past years or so the suicide squad has become my favorite team of all of dc as of recent for I mostly like the new 52 run to their rebirth run as well
Isn’t Caitlin Snow the only Heroic version of Killer Frost unlike the other first 2? Did they just turn her into a villain because of the Suicide Squad?
Ok what about Red X? Idk if he won but he came the closest to actually destroying everything Amanda Waller has built so that makes him powerful in some way or another Yo I didn’t know black manta was in the Suicide Squad, he’s awesome
Although a Superman villain only suicide squad sounds cool, it implies that Manchester black and Zod somehow got the bomb in brain treatment. How do you put a implant that kills you into people with literal invincible brains? Even if Zod is on kryptonite he’s still super strong
@@RickReasonnz I think they're asking how strong the bombs would have to be to harm Zod once implanted, since Kryptonians' invulnerability isn't skin-deep. Yeah, you cut into him with Kryptonite and implant the bomb...which, when triggered, presumably gives Zod a mild headache. Unless it's a Kryptonite bomb? It's also strange to me that the bomb isn't tripped by Zod's attempt to remove it. I haven't read the comic, but I assume it's addressed there? Idk. I also wondered how you "kidnap" a telepath as strong as Manchester Black. Again, I assume it's addressed in the comic.
