To all that write/make this kind of content: If you want to know how to properly pronounce a characters name..."Watch the source material...PLEASE"...IT IS pronounced Constan-TEEN. That is how it is pronounced in the original movie, all the animated series, on Legends of Tomorrow. You would figure if that is the way it is pronounced by the creators of the character for years, that is the way it is correctly pronounced... This was like nails on chalkboard...

Matt Ryan definitely is Constantine. Whether it's his own series (that was sadly cancelled after one season, even though it was really good), in the Legends of Tomorrow series or the animated movies where he voiced the character. I personally think Constantine: City of Demons is the best one so far, it uses a lot of the plot from All his Engines, which was mentioned in the video, but the ending is different (I'd say it's even better/darker than the one from All his Engines).

The injustice "Outsmarting" was very undersold, as trapping Superman in a dream world was just one part of his plan to get rid of all potential threats to himself so that he could go into hiding with his daughter and protect her after the death of her mother which was a result of the on going war between Batman and Superman. And in order to pull off his plan he had to trick "EVERYONE!" including Batman.

Two things about #1. It happened in issue 45 and not 59. And the other thing is John did not die and go to hell. He slashed his wrists and warned the demons that if he died they would have to fight over his soul. So they fixed his body and cured his cancer to avoid that war.

@rustyshackleford2950
@rustyshackleford2950 2 жыл бұрын
If I recall the meta-lore. First of the Fallen was ORIGINALLY meant to be Lucifer and mirror the Triumverate portrayed in sandman. That got more complicated, obviously when Sandman changed things up again and the Lucifer spinoff, but Hellblazer writers wanted to play with that triad so they soft retconned FotF as something else entirely since they never explicitly called him Lucifer anyways. I think First of the Fallen was like...in modern terms...a Beta Test Angel. A celestial being created before God created Angels with Lucifer ultimately being a more powerful upgrade or something. (A little foggy there I'll admit.) But yes. He didn't realize he was way more powerful than the 2nd or the 3rd, though if I recall it wasn't QUITE that like they outbluffed him. It was that they were VERY POWERFUL demons but STILL demons so they had certain demonic weaknesses that the First hadn't thought to exploit until much later, either because he thought they didn't have such weaknesses or that he thought he possessed them himself. It's like General Zod fighting Daxamites and then finally being like wait...you're allergic to LEAD?!

{1} Tricking Superman for even a while is indeed a feat in of itself. {2} In fairness, it was also Gary's fault that this all happened. {3} This is fine, as there is a laundry list of plans John was involved with or planned that DID NOT GO WELL. {4} It was both a bluff AND he'd live with it somehow, because he's Constantine and he can't afford to slow down and let the guilt have at 'im. {5} This was only the tip of the iceberg, though. I'm sure the bit that came AFTER Brenden is on here. {6} Gabe was later destroyed by Satan on his way to deal with John. {7} Always a problem when no one is ever destroyed entirely in the underworld. {8} Well, he owed him one. Several ones, in fact. {9} The best way to lose to Constantine is to ever let him talk. {10} This was the crowning glory, but he wasn't actually in their domain yet. Think you got something confused. He sold himself to the other two major demons behind Satan's back, and then proceeded to cut his own wrists to lure the Devil to watch because he's laid claims on John for the previous debacles. (The Magic Stout incident, for one.) When they all came, they all fought over John, but then it was 'Tick-Tock' as John opened his neck, forcing them to revive him so they wouldn't have this fight...until Satan finally figured out how to oust his fellow demon lords. I read a number of these, and while there are some contenders, these tricks are pretty good ones.

Another life certainty dealing with DC comics is Euan pronouncing Constantine wrong and telling you he says it right (and you are wrong). I looked it up and according every single website it is pronounced [KON]+[STUHN]+[TYN]. I guess he could ask how Alan Moore how he pronounces it because as the creator of the character he would know. I mean how long did the other guy from whatculture say darksied's name wrong and no one stopped him.
