James O'barr's influence for this was really sad itself even....poor guy.

[@cliffwoodbury5319]

this character will always be one of my all time favorites - i know many people feel that way!!!

[@DragonFist9323]

most people are fan of the film don't even had any idea that is based on a comic. they get outrage when they heard that the movie is getting rebooted lol

[@RogueDragon05]

Most people think that Brandon Lee and there angsty teenage memories of his death is the be all end all of The Crow, and while I would never try to take anything away from his performance, he wasent, personally I don't think he would have wanted his death to end anything but I of course did'nt know him, regardless I'd be cool with a new movie, I just don't want a reboot becuase Eric's tales been told and retold so many times now that it's pointless to do it yet again, Hollywood just thinks that the only thing thats going to sell is Eric's tale and thats not true in my opinion.

[@mattbennett8106]

@daredevil fan I'm on the same page as you, the amount of people I told & get a reaction of "What! Really???"

[@MrFosthesensei]

Exactly 💯I been saying this💀

[@MrFosthesensei]

@@RogueDragon05 he’s story been told 2 times most people don’t even know who the crow is believe it or not.I can understand if he was Batman or sumthing

[@RogueDragon05]

@@MrFosthesensei Eric's story has been told in the original comic and it's cross overs (which there must have been like at least half a dozen), as well as the movie, as well as the tv series, as well as later Image comic series, as well as a number of other references such as the City of Angels movie and all it's incarnations (comic/novel/video game) referencing Eric. Yes Eric's story has been done to death! (No pun intended) If by "most people don't know The Crow" you mean people under 30 I'll take your word for it, but most anyone over 30 is at least vaguely aware of Brandon Lee's death and The Crow movie. But my point isn't that Eric's story isn't any good but rather Eric's story isn't the end all be all of "The Crow" mythos, it's just one story and one incarnation... it's not like Star Wars where if your gonna redo it you have to remake Luke Skywalker. They don't HAVE to use Eric and his story they literally can tell any, back from the dead to seek revenge story in any culture at any point in time. With that kinda freedom why remake Eric's story for like the 6th time and they have been working on this remake for like 20 some years at this point, just do an independent story.

[@guitargangster66]

The Crow and Blade of The Immortal are my favorite books

[@AF-Twice]

This video was very informative. Alot of information in under 5 minutes. Great job.

[@eljackryan3681]

I met mr jame obarr and let me tell you, the guy is sooooooooooooooo cool and social. Also, a former marine 👍🏼

[@jamesmoss3424]

R.I.P Brandon Lee.

[@MarioUcomics]

Props to you all for showcasing the other Crow comics

[@Lalaxbo]

The Crow comic book is so awesome :) . I ordered it from EBay and it was money well spent :). Brandon Lee's The Crow is still awesome and he brought a fanstastic and memorable performance . RIP Brandon .

[@SYCZ]

1. Not a rock star. 2. Not Draven, just Eric. 3. Top Dollar$ wasn’t the boss. 4. Tbird wasn’t keen on putting bottles on his fingers and saying “warrioooors” he was a black guy from Milli Vanilli

[@liamshaughnessy6246]

Heck yeah love ❤️ this comic book 📖!

[@fad23]

More 80s-90s Indie books please! I'm craving Grimjack, Love & Rockets, Eightball, Megaton Man, Zot!, Tales of the Beanworld More familiar offers - The Tick, Sam & Max, Judge Dredd (2000 AD, I know) Some

[@Fang10100]

Coincidentally enough I just re-watched The Crow movie last nigh (Brandon Lee version) after over a year. It's not as impactful as I remember it when I watched it last year but I still really enjoyed it and I still want more! If only I could find the books easily...

[@Fang10100]

I came across The Crow graphic novel some time ago (I'd say a couple months to a year ago) but I read other stuff that I was also interested in and I didn't buy it since I knew it'd be pricey and I'd rather pay for it myself. I may just use Amazon or e-bay but thanks for the tip

[@gat1986]

There was a special edition of the original run released back in 2011, shouldn't be too hard to get a hold of.

[@jojo6028]

You thought this was sad, read O'Barr's 'Curare' comic. Brutal, sad, ... Redemption. I couldn't stop crying.... Like some damned baby 😢

[@mfkza569]

RIP Lee, son gohan

[@steeter6]

😔

[@Geezenstack444]

I would like a video where he goes into some of the comics more.

[@RogueDragon05]

Unfortuantly with the exception of the original the comics aren't really that long or intreasting or detailed, witch is really a shame, some of them have great concepts but there usually only 3 or 4 short issues long

[@sakhilehlongwa5494]

you guys should do Doctor Doom and Namor

[@betunia98]

They forgot to mention crow razor kill the pain comic

[@jordanaguero2847]

Hey Hollywood, you want to reboot the crow so badly here’s how you do it Option A: get Christopher Nolan to direct it Option B: just leave the crow alone because the 1994 movie with Brandon Lee was a masterpiece.

[@MrFosthesensei]

If they reboot it you’ll be the first idiot to watch it

[@tickedoffnow]

The Crow(1994) reminds Me of Frank Castle/ The Punisher

[@raytheshredgod6987]

They are very different

[@85Zeroangel]

Well there was a tv-series with a female Crow, can't remember much but it was something about her son being killed.

[@poeticangel27]

Mogens Linnet There was a female crow introduced on the show. I think that is who you are talking about.

[@85Zeroangel]

***** Could be that I'm mixing up.

[@jimmywilliamson8229]

can someone explain the ending to the original arch to me. I really liked the book but the last part with the horse and the graveyard confused me

[@N019R0C5]

Basically, Eric's mercy-killing of the horse, is supposed to symbolize his final acceptance of the fact he wasn't able to help Shelly, and his discussion with the crow says he's been trapped by his anger at himself, and at the gang who attacked him and Shelly that night. That is the best way I can describe it

[@jimmywilliamson8229]

Cop McScotland oh ok cool thanks, but what about the cemetery scene? Did he shoot himself and go to heaven or is he just stuck on earth now?

[@N019R0C5]

Yeah, he pretty much shoots himself

[@jimmywilliamson8229]

Cop McScotland hmmm ok cool thank you very much, really appreciate it :)

[@RogueDragon05]

The Crows powers in the comic you might notice never heal self inflicted injeries so when he blows his own brains out he's really gone finally, I think that it was abit of the futility that O'Barr was feeling with his own demons, all of the anger and pain that he poured into the comic did'nt free him like he hoped it might, it just made the pain worse.... utimiatly there was no way for Eric to bring Shelly back.... just to accept his death and perhaps join her in eternity. Thats my interputation

[@onnonshaqa8991]

No DMX set to star in the Crow lazarus with Eminem?

[@geardog24]

What powers did the magic crow give to people he resurrected?

[@dahakaguardianofthetimelin4780]

1. Because the avatars are dead they don't need food, sleep etc. They do not feel pain and recover instantly from any damage they receive. They also gain supernatural strength, speed, agility as well very refined reflexes. They can even scale buildings and possess great fighting skill. 2. There are some mental abilities like the ability to see images from their or their loved ones' memories as well as send those memories to others (like transmitting their beloved's pain to the people that killed them). Eric also could scan the events that happened by just touching the items that were involved. 3. Also apparently when the resurrected ignore their mission their abilities deteriorate and dissapear eventually killing them again.

[@RogueDragon05]

Every incarnation has it's own set of rules often times, some are pretty much universial but in some instances even though the Crow can usually take an unlimited amount of damage, in others there's a set limet too how much damage can be restored, The two stories that are most directly the creation of O'Barr do not give the Crow any weakness whatsoever, the only reason Eric "dies" eventually is that he blows his own brains out and self inflicted harm is not healed, and in Skinning the Wolves the "hero" just simply disappears into the darkness

[@klasicktha1]

Thank God that Rob Zombie version was cancelled lmao!!! It would have indeed been horrible

[@anthologycold8438]

Is it on Marvel or DC?
