I appreciate how accurate you get when you are explaining the story as the pages turn. I actually stop to read them as your talking and man you and your editor are on point brother!
Rod Reis, the artist behind the character design, did a fantastic job of capturing the essence of Shade Casio ower through his portrayal of Mephisto. It's truly impressive how he was able to bring out the same level of depth and complexity
I believe that deal *with Mephisto* is referred to as a *Faust-ian deal*. Good stuff; there are many works of literature concerning these types of deals with Mephisto. My memory of Faust and that deal are spotty at best, but still worth looking into and reading. Great stuff Rob. Dude keep it up!
Awesome. I liked inferno a lot. I had a couple good chuckles during the video, though, because being a John and a John Doe are two very different things.
Does Dr. Strange even have much of a soul left? I mean how many times has he sold a piece of it for power or something in the Sinner's Market or some other way? Or does his soul just get retconned back to full whenever a new person writes him?
Dammit!!! Rob you got me this time with the cliffhanger bruh. I never read this one so I'm hooked subbed and liked. Man i didnt even ✔ the time on the video just looking at the scene like my 10yo self watching DBZ for the first time 😆.
ngl When I saw iron fist on the page during the video, I had the same reaction that you probably did seeing Blade. Danny Rand 4 Life! Everyone else showing up is dope too, but Iron Fist got such a bad rap because of Netflix, that any moment for him to shine is a plus in my book.
TIL: Steve “The Supreme Commander” Rodgers was unceremoniously killed off. I maybe the only one who loved the Secret Empire run (caveat that the return of Steve Rogers was weak and he isn’t the “real” Steve Rogers), but damn, I was really hoping for a couple more stories from him. Maybe Marvel will give a miniseries concerning his alternate reality now that his world has a Marvel timeline designation.
So with how often Rob laughs at the death of people, can we put him down for "Supervillian if given Powers"........... or Deadpool, either one is fine with me.
*saying this before watching the video* Rob ive heard you say over and over again how strange was once insanely powerful. I heard you mention strange LOADS in general videos. Can we get a Dr. Strange series of some kind?? Please I got so excited when i saw this title and im already so excited for the rest!
Having read this story, it looks that way, the set up is definitely there and few players (that will hopefully introduce the rest) have upcoming shows.
That wager scene with Mephisto is a paraphrasing of the scene of Mephisto in Heaven with God in part 1 of Goethe's Faust. They make a wager to prove humanity is not as bad as Mephisto thinks and the wager is on who can ultimately win Faust's soul. In Goethe's Faust Part 2, Faust is saved. His deal was for the ultimate experience, the sensation he'd want to never end and it turned out to be caring about others, selfless love.
13:38 damn bro i care about Elsa Bloodstone. She just needs someone to wright a badass story for her. Especially one like old man logan or planet hulk.
