Yet Another 15 Missed Opportunities of AT4W - Atop the Fourth Wall 

"...the tradition of even numbered years being pretty godawful..." - Linkara, the prophet

"... a dark and terrible future!" *me with a box on my head*

No. 5 Linksano: "So you see Batman, while you may be able to "take me to School"......I ACTUALLY GRADUATED." Me: Claps in admiration

"well you know what. I know things will be better...it DOES get better and eventually we WILL get through all this" ^a message to all those in 2020

"So batman, while you may be able to take me to school... I ACTUALLY GRADUATED!" Linksano 1, Batman 0.

"Even numbered years are pretty God-awful" Linkara, 2018 "You don't say?" Me, from isolation in 2020

Alright we need a gif of Linkara dancing to "Star Trekking"

"...continued the trend of even numbered years being godawful." Me, in 2020: Linkara knows ALL!

Forcibly impregnated by an alien with rapid gestation? Where have I seen that before in sci-fi? Does anyone's chest hurt? John Hurt, how about you?

Am I the only one who's kind of giddy that we're going to get a retrospective on Cassandra Cain?

Linksano's character seems to have gone kind of deep. His evil side seems to have dissipated well his interest in good and furthering knowledge for people other than himself has replaced it, almost as if its giving him a new purpose...

I personally actually love the longer videos

Batman: committing credit card fraud for the greater good.

Calling it now, the final episode of the Contest of Champions will be Linkara VS Pilo

It may not have ended off the year, but I like that this is starting off the year. Happy New Year to everyone at Atop the Fourth Wall. 3:33 holy fuck its a Dan Olson cameo. I thought video essayists were a niche unto themselves, where they only cameo in other video essays by other video essayists. Like a shared video essayists universe as it were. Like the marvel to old style Channel "not so" Awesome's DC, or vice versa depending on how you want that metaphor to go.

"I have another big character retrospective in 2019 so enjoy those episodes coming out the following MONTH." Well shit you called it XD

All in all, it’s yet Another Brick In The Wall...

As a chemistry graduate, I sincerely applaud Doctor Linksano's educational intervention!

30:18 Oh god I forgot Spike Lee is the Kingpin. .......Spike Lee is the Kingpin....... *walks outside to stand on a balcony with the Manos song playing*

Keep using the Brawl theme. No other Smash game is quite a fit for the tone you're going for. Maybe commission Vincent to do a cover so it's more your own thing by the 11th?

Committing credit card fraud... Something all our heroes are probably doing. Looking at you, Batman, Dean Winchester, Sam Winchester, Castiel, Green Arrow... Also- YES, CASSANDRA CAIN!!!

“The contest should be back on track in a couple months” -Linkara, 2019

"2018 continued the trend of even numbered years being pretty god awful" yeah, that checks out for 2020 too

Also OH YAY! ANOTHER DOCTOR LINKSANO SEGMENT! I really want this to be like a sub series like maybe it’s him pointing out false science in comics.

The final Tandy computer wiz kids comic is coming people, prepare to party hard like you never party'd hard before!!

"Oh, but I kid! The meals aren't happy" just punched me in the gut while watching this video. Picked it up from the middle after a big hiatus in my AT4W marathon, and man did that just put me right into the mood to watch more PFFFFFFFFFFFFF I didn't realize I missed this style of reviewing until now (Also, great job with Winter of '83! Still having a bit of a O_o moment whenever it gets cold here even if there's no snow) THE CAMERA BIT. THE YOYO EMOTIONAL STABILITY OF DC COMICS. LINKSANO *DESTROYING Crazy Steve with FACTS and LOGIC. M A R V I L L E (ew). Actually enjoyed that little end bit, that's pretty much something that should be better explored yeah. Motherhood as body horror… the potential. The ideas. Mwah. Great- CASSANDRA CAIN WAS AFTER THIS LETS REWATCH ALL OF IT YESSSS

"I'm still using the Brawl theme for some reason" Because Brawl's is the best.

Thanks for the chemistry lesson, Dr. Linksano!

You made a good call to leave Channel Awesome Lewis.

Ten years of AT4W and you're still finding ways to improve. Be proud of that.

Your introducing me to the Just Imagine line is why I love Stan Lee's cameo in Teen Titans Go to the Movies. They went on about it not being a Marvel movie but in reality it's because of that series that he had every right to be in the movie, and was in fact the only DC writer to appear

"Heroes in Crisis will be covered in the next Event Comics Month..." BEST NEWS TO START THE YE- "...Taking a break from Event Comics Month this year." ...AAAAH, CRAP.

Ok, the fact that after you heard people were kinda bothered with the color balance of your new reviewer’s outfit your response was “ok I’ll just MAKE A NEW JACKET” is just awesome, you are freaking inspiration to me dude. I’ve been watching your videos for... I think 6 years now, and your kindness, personality, sense of humor, and everything else you show us in these videos has definitely made an impact on me. I guess all there really is to say is thanks for being just an all around amazing person, thank you for being one of the first people to help me realize that it’s not weird for me to still like Power Rangers even though I’m not a little kid, thank you for telling us such fun and interesting stories to us at the ends of your videos year after year, thank you for everything you’ve done, and I hope you have an amazing 2019!

HAPPY 10TH ANNIVERSARY AND NEW YEAR LINKARA, here's to the next 10 years of bad comics, intergalactic villains, new and old friends, and alot of bat shit craziness to come!👍

The Final Tandy issue?! Truly the end of an era...

The Bat Credit Cards are under Matches Malone's name.

In the great words (slightly paraphrase) of Col. Potter (MASH): And So we bid fair well to 2018 and welcome 2019. May it be a fair sight better than the last one. Also to directly quote Dr. Benjamin Franklin ‘Hawkeye’ Pierce in regards to 2018: *Toast* So long Ferret Face.

16:53 I am reminded of a portmanteau I once coined years ago on a comment on the AT4W website: "retconcupiscence", the extreme lust for radically altering the continuity. If that doesn't describe DC, I have no idea what does.

16:47 "What is that?" "The Entity." Well shit. Better get out the Absent Grimoire again. *start to hum, 'Beneath the seas, beside the flame'*

24:55 Whiz Kids: Into the Tandy-Verse?

So excited for the character retrospective, Cassandra Caine was my favorite Batgirl, and I’m so happy that Rebirth retconned a lot of the crappy writing that the character went through regarding being turned evil and crap

"The plot is puns" made me laugh too hard

Oh, I can not wait for Linkara to cover Heroes In Crisis...

"It will be better" One year later: 2020 i haven't left my house in three months.

That Bleach lesson also just made Jeff the Killer completely impossible. Thank you for making a stupid character completely impossible to ever exist.

One thing I don't think I have seen deconstructed with the whole "Baby rapidly aging to adult" idea is this, as we grow up our bodies build up immunities to certain diseases: Cold, flu, Chicken Pox ect. That allows us to grow strong and ale to handle some of the more harsher diseases that come up later in life. Rapidally aging, like these guys do, SKIPS that step. Wich means, they should be getting very sick from every disease known to mankind by now. Love to see that. Marcus: Yes Carol, I am your son and I rapially aged to *URRK!* I'm dead from pneumonia.

Lewis, can I just say: Linkara, you magnificent windbag, I love your work! (I promise that's not meant horribly even though it reads that way.)

"2018 continued the trend I noticed of even numbered years being pretty god awful". Me watching this in April of 2020: >_>

Linkara, thanks again for ten amazing years of wonderful, funny, informative, and at times even touching videos, and simply being so damn awesome.

2018 was a good year for AT4W. I can't wait for the secret project. Also, it's a shame I've never caught one of your streams.

27:35 The Fixer isn't Not Batman, he's Not Crazy Steve, because even Crazy Steve has standards. :3

Thanks again Linkara, your videos make the tough times a bit easier. Here's to another decade of AT4W! 🍻

On a more positive note, the tenth anniversary was great. Aside from this just being a time to reflect on all the moments that have come and gone, it was the year that gave us such greats as "Event Comics Month II", the 500th episode, several follow-ups to past episodes, one of my personal favorite episodes that year in JLA/Avengers, and of course the 10th anniversary itself, which took us back to the beginning with the Spider-Man Clone Saga storyline, "Smoke and Mirrors"!!! Just a fun time all around for the channel.

I’m so amazed you got Dan Olsen to cameo!

Happy New Year, Linkara! Oh, and you must check out Star Trek vs. Transformers. In the third issue, the Enterprise becomes a transformer. I am not even kidding.

Happy new year and keep on going for another 10 years!

You know what, I think you might be right. Here to this early being the start of the best in history.

Happy belated 10th anniversary, Linkara!

2019: *SNAP!* 2018: *I DON'T FEEL SO GOOD!!* Also *LINKARA IS STILL BEST CAPTAIN!!!!*

You know looking back on this in 2020 I can barely even remember what happened in 2018

Hope you have a happy new year Linkara! Again congrats on reaching 10 years and can't wait to see what you have in store for the next 10 years.

26:00 Frank Millers Batman - works on the same level of science as Jeff the Killer Though that'd be an interesting crossover.

Happy New Year Linkara! Hope to see more of your reviews, adventures, and other fun stuff. I will be looking forward to it.

Happy New Year, Lewis. Thanks for getting me through another rough one and here’s hoping you start doing more science segments with Linksano.

Happy New Year Linkara. Looking forward to what you have planned in 2019

And: Happy new Year, thank you for being a constant in my entertainment choices. :)

Happy New Year, Linkara! Here is to another great year.

2018 may not have been a perfect year, but for me it was a year that was definitely one of massive reflection and the thought of what will come next as we keep moving forward. And for Lewis, you have been a massive inspiration to me in multiple different ways, and I cannot say how great it is for you to have made Atop the Fourth Wall for over ten years. And I cannot wait to see more for hopefully ten more!

16:19 SOMEONE GIF THIS PLEASE.

Thank you for this last year. As I’ve probably said before. I came across your channel at one of the most trying and downright agonizing times of my life thus far. Your “silly little show” has done more to help me than you could possibly know in these past few years that I’ve been watching. I look forward to seeing what 2019 has in store for atop the fourth wall. Happy new year linkara and everyone who reads this

Thank you for this! Especially your last words made my day and brought me a tear of joy. I had a pretty rough ride the last year myself. Nearly lost everything including my optimism and confidence but my motto is and always will be: "never give up - never surrender" from galaxy quest. Love and peace for you and your loved ones. Keep on rockin'

Happy New Year Lewis, here's to another year of great content featuring great, and not so great, comics.

Use the Brawl theme all you want. It sounds great

Wait. He only now has 100k subscribers? Am i the only one ho thought he had way more then that? Welp gonna have to fix that #subscribetoat4w Lets get this boy to 1 million and beyond folks

Happy new year linkara! Can't wait to see what next year has in store for AT4W! :)

Wow. So much went on this year. On the one hand, it sounds like you had a rather rough time with "Life happens" being taken to the extreme. Everything that went on sounds taxing, many of the circumstances didn't give you much in the way of choice, but you did/do your best to push through. I extend you my sympathies for those troubles. On the other hand, that was where you really did well. You worked hard to push an extremely labor intensive schedule for AT4W; sure there were delays, but the amount of content you created was immense. Even without considering the time put in for research and character+writers ref. You accomplished quite a lot this year and ended it strong reaching your Ten Year Anniversary and over 500 episodes. Great job and I wish you the best for the future. On a side note, normally This channel is the sort of thing I just watch occasionally and in no particular order as a means of unwinding. Yet today, after this episode, I wanted to take a minute to reflect on my feelings on "Atop The Fourth Wall." As a child of a comic collector, I constantly had to prove my worth and even my very right to be present by means of a ridiculous amount of comic book knowledge and an extensive understanding of comic development and industry history. This was required by every comic collector I encountered that wasn't my father. I'm talking about even when I was a small child in the background of comic shops and game/hobby stores. Therefore, I understand and immensely respect the surprising amount of work you put into the research that many might not even think of as necessary to "Make Bad Comics Burn." It may seem unassuming at a glance, just open a stupid looking comic and proceed to roast, but I can tell you go so much farther than that and really are familiar with your medium. Thus, even when you pick on the weak spots that I choose to overlook in comics I wish to enjoy anyways, I still laugh and have a good time knowing you are one of the few that enjoy and have a deep relationship with comics while still being able to revel in the humor of its shortcomings.

I’ve been a huge fan of you since 2012 Linkara, you have made me love comics and read more than I used to. You have introduced me to Babylon 5 which both me and my dad are watching and adoring. Thank you for everything and happy new year and congratulations to you and viga.

Happy New Year, Linkara! Also, congratulations for appearing in Dumbing of Age!

I think 2018 was a awesome year for your content. But I do look forward to what you got in store for this year.

2018 was possibly the greatest year for at4w u accomplished so much had some of the best reviews and had a great storyline start happy new year linkara

I can't tell you how excited I am to see your Cassandra Cain retrospective.

ahh a perfect video to end out the year as I go back to work. thank you Linkara for being awesome the last two years have not being all that good for me but your show has given me a lot of fun and insanity and has even help me got into comics....I think my comic store may be trying to send you as fruit basket because how much ive bought from them....

Dr Manhattan confirmed in the Tandy Computer whiz kids universe

You have no idea how happy I am for that character retrospective that's coming up

Hope the next year is better for you buddy. I’ve had a lousy year too but you made it better.

@16:53 You get a retcon! And you get a retcon! And you get a retcon! EVERYBODY GETS A RETCOOOOOONNNNN! Hmm, maybe not making this joke can be in your next 15 missed opportunities :)

I wish I had watched this back in 2018, when I was still recovering from a 5-month long mental health crisis. I really needed someone to tell me it does get better, and although by December, I was considerably more stable than the previous months, that period of my life marked 2018 as one of the worst years I ever had. But even now, 3 years later and still in the middle of a pandemic, hearing a beloved character tell me that it gets better, even after in real life he had gone through hardship after hardship... it's inspiring, man.

Happy New Year, to you and your wife, Lewis.

Happy New Year, Linkara!

That blue shirt's hope is really rubbin' off on ya, huh? I don't mind the color balance myself, but can't wait to see the new jacket all the same!

I hope Linkara knows we don’t mind when his episodes are late. That we get his content at all is a blessing. Easily my favourite Internet personality, and that he try’s so hard for his fans and for his show is an inspiration

I'm new to channel for a few months back but I am happy to be part of the TheFourthWall... train? Fan? Yea fan! I hope 2019 gets even better as I learn new stuff... both awesome, not awesome... and disturbing as I view Linkara's path to both good, bad, weird or AWFUL comics! Thank you!

Thank you, Lewis...Thank you for ten wonderful years. And as someone who's been a fan for all of them, I sincerely look forward to ten more, and however many you want. From all I know about you, you were the Keanu Reeves of Channel Awesome. A kind, friendly, ever approachable guy, one of the sweetest and most wonderful people on the platform, and from all I've heard that hasn't changed since the mass exodus. Stay wonderful, Lewis. You're one of my favorite people on the internet.

Happy New Year, and congratulations on finishing off your tenth year.

It really is hard to believe this show is 10 years old =w= Hope you had a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Lewis

Feels very appropriate to end off the anniversary year/kick off the new year with a list going through episodes from all across your storied history. :) That chemistry lesson about bleach was actually pretty interesting, thanks! And yeah, I know about setting something up and then forgetting to talk about it later (though from a "writing fanfic and forgetting a plot point" perspective) -- fortunately I usually DO catch it in editing. Fingers crossed for a better 2019, and Happy New Year, Linkara! :)

Better for it? We love you, and are with you no matter what. You made a good choice. Thanks for years of AMAZING content!!!!

CASS!!!!! My favorite batfamily member, can't wait to hear more about her!

Happy New Year! Here's to a good one for us all. Also, I do like how your outfit looks.

2018 has been one hell of a year for you huh? 500th episode, 10 year anniversary, a clone side plot with great twists and turns, event comics month, etc. Here's to 2019 and Happy new year to all btw.
