[@auron123499]

You know a story is good when it makes you sit back and think "What if this happens to us" or "Could we ever stop anything like this from ever happening" to tell my opinion I believe that our will to live would make us do the same thing that the illuminati did in this amazing comic

[@LeFlurLeflaEshkoshka]

Y’all the real MVPs. An hr of content and no ads!!

[@scro910]

Brand M bruh for real i tired to watch the original sin event on comics explained and that dude put over 49 ads on it...every 5 minutes was an add

[@LeFlurLeflaEshkoshka]

S Cromartie I watched that one too. It was hard to get through with all the adds.

[@axeltrujillo5693]

Ive read the entire story arc and watched this video TWICE, and its still one of the best written stories off all time.

[@shemaiahkallumsebasjian2041]

Bro doctor strange 3 might be adapting this

[@WitchMaster-vi4kp]

it could work with doctor Strange but... it should be avengers level movie

[@LeeSmoth]

It's 2024 and I stop 8 months later just say this is deep... continue

[@TheMatrixLogOut]

I've read the entirety of Hickman's Avengers & New Avengers and been looking for a good video going over Time Runs Out before getting into Secret Wars, I've watched quite a few but yours is, by far, the most comprehensive and the most accurate one. Most people who do this kind of videos usually make rather short videos, skipping over a lot of crucial plot points, or say things which are simply not accurate, buy you've been 100% on point as far as I remember. Thanks for the recap :)

[@Demarcoa]

TheMatrixLogOut thanks man. I think/hope I got everything right. And I agree. The video is an hour long because I felt like all the material was crucial and such

[@ziggyhogan7560]

+TheMatrixLogOut if you liked this read his fantastic 4 run i was never really a fan but it was great

[@AF-pw4we]

Holy shiiiittt. I can't imagine how long it took for you guys to do this. Thank you thank you thank you soon much for this

[@Demarcoa]

Ayman Futa no prob... I have been sitting on these Avengers/New Avengers comics for quite some time now :P

[@cellardoorSC]

you narrated that so well, I enjoyed that so much , thanks for upload

[@ComicIsland]

Stephen Cooper thanks for the kind words my friend.

[@cliffcurlee1520]

The narration was great. Your Enthusiasm really showed. But the plot. dear God the plot. That is the most confusing mess of stupidity since the Mueller manafort trial. I lost track so many times I found myself humming to the 1812 Overture in the background. They can't hate each other that much. why don't Captain America and Ironman just have sex and get married and just leave the rest of us out of it. Continuity is way overvalued when it results in garbage emotion-based pots like this that I could fly a quinjet through.

[@irvingramirez2335]

45:10 I hate how everytime someone tells this tale they forget to mention that thor finally becomes worthy again

[@georgesdrouillard3061]

I re-watch this every 2 months or so, always a good listen

[@ProfitYoEL]

Love long stories. This is BY FAR the best and most comprehensive explanation of everything leading into Secret WARS. Ive watched my other favorite channels but I got the most out of this one. Great job guys you rock and keep it up!

[@Demarcoa]

Liv PROFIT awesome, well that's cool to hear. Thanks!

[@UncleTonyK]

I totally agree with Profit YoEL. This narration was very well done.

[@aaronsims3176]

This is by far one of the best series leading up to another great series that I've read in a while. And great narration. Job well done, I'm at work now and I can't wait to clock out to go catch up and get "Secret Wars" Glad I stopped by and decided to check this out.

[@trecontreras6850]

I am saving so much money watching these.

[@julo514]

This is the video that got me into comics and allowed me to enjoy secret wars. I am now showing this to my kids. Thank you so much for your work.

[@ComicIsland]

That is awesome!

[@ihatemorbidlyobeseredditor2668]

This guy is the most dedicated under appreciated comic book reviewer on KZbin.👏👌✌

[@ComicIsland]

jack manda we appreciate your kind words. thanks a ton for making our day. =)

[@SirMandokarla]

I can't say I could be happier about having the story fully laid out for me. I'm grateful you took the time to tell the story, and to finally understand everything that led up to my worst nightmare for Marvel. Thank you.

[@jefffettes3577]

Wow! A lot of work went into this. Thanks for posting it. Even though I read almost all of Time Runs Out, there were still things I'd misunderstood or just missed altogether. Watching this really helped me to enjoy the story more.

[@michaelschnupp1854]

Gentlemen this is by far the best time runs out video I have found, nothing comes close. I've watched this like 3 times great job guys. Thanks for all the work put into this video

[@stephenwashington2227]

2020 still get the chillz world 💯⚡⚡⚡

[@NappyPappy4life]

"WHY DON'T WE JUST TAKE THE EARTHS AND PUSH THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE"

[@red19841984]

Thank you for your time making all these long videos. I really enjoy them.

[@rickquick8977]

Wow, That was great. I stopped reading comics years ago and recently got back in via digital collections on amazon, but they don't do a great job of showing what came before what so I've been following the story out of order. this helps put the pieces together and explain the larger mosaic. Thanks so much!!! YOU ROCK!!!!

[@paulmag5306]

man that was an epic hour and a half .... between you and comicstorian you guys got this on lockdown ...cheers

[@robslack5468]

Wonderful synopsis! I read these books as they came out, but there were several parts I had missed. Loved how you tied together the big threads, especially doom and the illuminati, not to mention Thor and Starbrand/nightmask. Bravo!

[@SidheKnight]

Hickman's run was epic, and you summarized it perfectly. Great video.

[@mister69.420]

Woooowwwwww comicisland I am so glad I found your channel. I love learning about the marvel universe but I find myself without time or knowledge on how to complete an arc. Anyways bravo sir, you got great story telling abilities and I look forward to your other videos.

[@moosehat714]

And what was The One Above All doing during all this??????????????

[@Demarcoa]

* Coughs * it was wayyyy past his bedtime

[@moosehat714]

Arden DeMarco lmaaaooo

[@neballar]

* Coughs * Well my guess? TOAA was thinking " Hey its been a millennia since I had a great nap. I should take one. Hell, what's the worse that can happen?"

[@wipeout2097xl]

They kill a Beyonders, yet the living Tribunal is taken out by three? That's a damn joke

[@Helman114]

* Coughs * He was fapping. What? New existences do need some fuel after all.

[@Lacoste7-6-7]

Great Job bro! Thank you for the details!

[@dionperrin9284]

Thank you for this compilation! you really did an awesome job!

[@MisterInevitable]

Dude, I watched the entire video. I personally don't mind the full complete review regardless of the time because your narration actually brings me into what's going on. But what an ending. Those final moments of Stark vs. Rogers fight and eventual death of Rogers and the ships destroying everything was insane. As always keep up the good work.

[@robberloose]

Great job! thank you for posting!

[@jamesandresen7033]

This is certainly the most ambitious video I've seen on your channel, and it might also be the best. Out of all the You-Tubers that I watch, this was by far the most thorough and informative SW lead-in video. Awesome job!!

[@reubenfromow4854]

Comic island, VERY WELL DONE. It is my firm belief that people should be rewarded for the hard work they put into something, and this has more than earned my subscription to your channel. Although I can't really claim to understand that much more, I watched for the whole hour and it certainly did clear some things up in my mind. A very well done to you and let me once more congratulate you on all the hard work you must have poured in- I would very much love to watch another video on the goings on of the secret wars themselves, should you be willing to provide such a thing. Once more, a heartfelt thank you and well done, and I certainly look forward to more of your content in the future!

[@CinemaTCG]

incredible job dude. amazing story and your narrating made it 10x better. thankyou!

[@PBKB]

Nice video!! Was a little funny with the error at the 39th minute or so :) hehe

[@oKingLexx]

The Marvel heroes managed to live long enough to see themselves turned into villains. sigh.

[@natanoj16]

blindsay21 And then fight themself and... Yea Multiverses do that to people ;)

[@jocojuri]

This was a lot of fun to listen to. Thanks for sharing the story!

[@CraigTheJOKR]

I appreciate that you took your time on this long story, subscribing now

[@TimmyT1234]

Years later this and your coverage of injustice are still my go to standards for comic book coverage. Your storytelling was an absolute masterpiece and easily cemented this as my favorite comic book storyline of all time

[@akeas100]

Thank you for taking the time to explain all of this. I Was lost after reading SW #1

[@luckduck5025]

Great channel dude, keep up the awesome work

[@Phlogiston2312]

I love the music that you play throughout the video. It fits the story

[@johnathan2684]

Thank you for all the hardwork ya'll did on this. Your really, brought out the characters. Thanks.

[@whitenova8844]

ComicIsland This is a fantastic video, very well explained. I have been looking for weeks to find a in-depth explanation to the build up of secret Wars as I haven't been reading any of the Avengers titles. My search is now over! Thank you! I will have to watch a second time to make sure it all sinks in, SUBSCRIBED!!

[@jngu14]

Great work ComicIsland, I appreciate your efforts with this summary. I did not read this story but after watching this youtube, I will definitely buy it along with Secret Wars. This war among multiverse concept reminds me of Warren Ellis' Planetary, which was one of my favourite comics story of all time.

[@1st508thAirborne]

Great video. Thanks for sharing it.

[@actlgilnk]

WOW what an EPIC tale... thank you 4 doing this you guys are awesome, keep it up !!!

[@raditeandiono3286]

Never get bored watch this video. It keep me want to watch it again and again. Thank you for your amazing job :)

[@zapcat8535]

thanks for the audio. more please!

[@gaznorman9913]

Thank you. Really enjoyed your take on Secret Wars.

[@vaszka44]

great,looking forward for more!

[@droppedlung]

My gods! The first comicbook I ever read was Secret Wars II. It single handedly turned me on to Marvel comics. I used to think it was so complex.... 30 years later, I am an old man with kids of my own, perusing KZbin vids and I come across this.... holy crap! Awesome storyline! I am so grateful for you putting this on here. Looks like it took alot of effort to tell this tale and I appreciate it... thanks and keep it coming... 'nuff said :)

[@stevendouglas8020]

My head is spinning but I did enjoy this!!! I stopped buying comics 5 years ago due to economic reasons and kept up with most Marvel and DC stuff online and via youtube. This was epic snd I was relieved to find out I understood and remembered much about the past events involved that led to this!!! Looking forward to the Secret Wars "tie in" stories to be posted and Thanks!!!!!

[@carlosezracanedo6821]

this is awesome , love it !!!

[@uneasygalaxy7723]

That was GREAT!!! Thanks

[@KevinP32270]

this was EPIC...thanks for sharing.

[@avenger038]

brilliant cant wait to watch your vids on secret wars!! brilliant job !

[@CrystalSouth]

thank you sir, this was amazing.

[@SageThePanda]

These Complete Stories are awesome and so well explained! I've been reading this since the start of Avengers/New Avengers so it's awesome to hear someone break it down.

[@henrylopez3479]

I've been coming across reviews that a very short in nature. Because of it that, I knew a lot of small yet interesting details were being left out. So with that said, I'm really glad I came across your channel. Keep up the good work.

[@PRSOne]

This was amazing, well done. The five dislikes are probably for the story, not the video.

[@411Fragrance]

This was so good that I had to watch it twice. That's 2 hours of my life that was well spent

[@kahaula32]

Short review for a long video: well done! Thank you.

[@terrancepage4716]

This was one of the most epic stories I’ve seen

[@pvk94]

You really have done the best walkthrough of this story so far

[@captassassin5680]

I feel a little drained after this, not to mentioned confused. But I feel a big thank you is in order for all your effort. So Thank You +Comicisland.

[@julo514]

This video is a godsend considering i am very new to comics. Thank you so much.

[@Noodleydoo]

My head hurts...

[@harrymorgan2593]

Noodleydoo Oh thank god. I thought I was the only one. :)

[@Noodleydoo]

Harry Morgan I like Hickman--he's done wonders with the Black Panther--but you have to admit his stories are frikkin' COMPLICATED.

[@harrymorgan2593]

Noodleydoo True

[@rodney2x48]

+Noodleydoo Imagine if this story was written by Grant Morrison; Hickman tries his best with the multiverse concept, but Grant would go fucking CRAZY with this. XD

[@potatokawai6982]

+Noodleydoo me too

[@ChrisClayton1]

Whoooo!!! long story.. but definitely worth it!! Now alot of recent news makes sence lol

[@SH-xq6cn]

Well done on this video

[@Collin_Beatz]

I am here because I wanna understand how they might adapt this storyline to Dr. Strange 3 and possibly Avengers: Secret Wars. This right here - helped a lot. Brilliant!!! New Subacriber right here. Sending love from Johannesburg, South Africa.

[@servantesthg]

Wow, thanks for this recap.

[@VagusDoc]

Thanks that was a lot of fun.

[@The1and0only]

Rock on!! I love these long complete stories!! Just like a bedtime story's!

[@deezportz]

Great story!!.. Ty for the upload

[@ericleon8805]

Thank you for doing this story.

[@natanoj16]

Mmmh long reviews

[@Armatige]

Bravo sir :) That was a really great read. Thanks.

[@fundamentalistsrdangerous9472]

Great job!

[@kasmosis]

Excellent review dude. I Have really enjoyed these stories. I jumped in to new avengers post infinity and Hickmans work really captivated me so much that i had to get the start of NA and Avengers under his run. Plus his FF and future foundation work. Just epic. Anyway you Highlighted the spotlight placed on blackpanther and Namor and few others no reviewer has mentioned. which is a shame cuz i really loved the nasty deep hatred these guys developed along the wa, the egos of Capt and Stark, or the dark turn Dr. Strange takes, he abandons 616. Also the Great Society was a jab at DC comics JL, i thought it was hilarious, awesome. Great review Arden & Joey keep up the great work

[@HammerofThor00]

I haven't bought a comic in years lol but really need to buy the secret wars series as I had when the original 80's series came out. Thanks for the background information it gives me an understanding of how complex the storyline is now!

[@MrSnickster]

Well done. Thanks for presenting this. I stopped reading comics in the 60's but love the movies of the last 20 years. When I heard Marvel was ending it all I was intrigued and this truly was an epic story.

[@salastan]

The only reason why Tony is like that was because of the inversion. Nobody seems to know he didn't change back when it is quite obvious.

[@adeadphish7931]

It was more than two years building up. This felt like the culmination of everything from the late 2000e and early 10s all the way back to civil war at least and helped clean house after what was a rough time to be a Marvel Fan and with several years since it happened at the time of this comment, I cannot appreciate it enough for being the controlled burn that helped bring me back to marvel along with Secret Wars as it's counterpart and I am thriled that with the events of Loki among other things, we are seeing shades of this epic story on the horizon of the MCU

[@hottubtony77]

Bravo sir, very well done

[@mrskyrunner3259]

I love this man 💪🏽💪🏽

[@PureTazr]

Holy snikies!!! what a great story ty for Narrating this I could never follow Comics now I can finally know what its like to get some of them.

[@jamesf7431]

wow, great job!

[@tawsifmahdeenalilasker2157]

this was awesome ... do the secret wars too :)

[@kuntakinte1222]

this was really good

[@SomeSmexyBeast]

neat, just saved me a ton on comics and time :D

[@shadowninja3868]

This video made me subscribe good jobs Sir

[@ComicIsland]

shadowninja3868 welcome to the comic island family.

[@reggieb1963]

I love your format, although it's a bit long.. It's good to get the whole story in one bite...Instead of tune in next week...Great job...

[@sardoggy]

awesome....keep posting

[@sardoggy]

Really, that was an hour long???? Went by so fast. Only means that this was a really a good read. Thanks.

[@KenTheSith]

Wow. Just wow. Great job everyone.

[@DavidScarpati]

you are the best man!

[@keithyoungwick]

Awesome. I just subscribed

[@luismendoza714]

good job I enjoyed

[@metripetri5956]

bro congrats

[@AhmadKiam]

So many awesome moments ... Some new heros that i didnot know before. and so many heroes missing. It feels like Avenger version of the Spider-Verse but the defrence is that in Spider-verse they manages to save many worlds but in Secret Wars barly saved the last earth... Great job.. looking forward for the next story...

[@lamarazmoe6438]

As soon as they saw the Living Tribunal's corpse they should have started building those multi-verse life rafts.

[@1bossofbosses]

+Lamar Green Agreed if you see something such as that. It ,means everything is ending

[@lamarazmoe6438]

Eternal Infinity Exactly. The guardian of existence died.... what should we do? Who is behind it? Simultaneously earths are colliding and destroying realities. Chances are you can't stop the being(s) behind the chaos.... life raft

[@1bossofbosses]

I agree i would of been with you on that one lol

[@nathandyoung5221]

It’s so good I’ve watched it so many times its brilliant thanks I’ll be watching it again and again I concur epic.
