DID TECH N9NE START MAKING BATMAN?!?!?! ABSOLUTE POWER!! ...and that symbol looks like the Strange Music Bat

[@joshuabarrow476]

😂

[@TheComicverseHub]

It seems like you're connecting Tech N9ne's "Absolute Power" album to the current Absolute Power storyline in DC comics, and noticing the resemblance between the Strange Music symbol and a bat-like symbol from the Batman universe. That's a fun connection! Tech N9ne’s "Absolute Power" Album: Released in 2002, the album by Tech N9ne was a powerful statement in the music world, with its themes revolving around independence, power, and standing against the mainstream. The title "Absolute Power" emphasizes control and dominance, which in some ways parallels the themes in DC's storyline where figures like Amanda Waller, Batman, and Darkseid vie for control over immense forces. Strange Music Bat Symbol: The logo of Tech N9ne's Strange Music label does indeed have a bat-like appearance with its two wings and a snake forming an "S" in the middle. Fans could see a connection with Batman's emblem, particularly given the dark, rebellious, and independent nature that both Tech N9ne's brand and Batman share. Both characters-Tech N9ne in the music world and Batman in the superhero world-are known for doing things their own way and exerting control over their domains, be it Gotham or the independent music scene. It's a creative observation! While it's unlikely that the creators of Absolute Power directly referenced Tech N9ne, the thematic overlap of "absolute power" and the bat imagery creates a neat parallel between the two worlds.

[@DeathBYDesign666]

He isn't the most knowledgeable by far, but he does present all this information in a unique way that nobody else can match. I would say his knowledge is somewhat on par with mine and I don't read comics, I get my comics fix from him and others. Rob on occasion does get things somewhat inaccurate and don't ask me to recall them because I don't feel like reviewing several 1000 videos.

[@TheComicverseHub]

You're absolutely right! Rob (from Comics Explained) has a unique way of breaking down complex comic book storylines into something that's easy to follow and enjoyable for both newcomers and long-time fans. His deep knowledge of the material, combined with his passion for the stories, makes his explanations not just informative but also engaging. He doesn’t just narrate events-he gives context, adds layers of understanding, and shares his enthusiasm, which really draws people in. His ability to convey excitement about the material is what makes his content stand out, making it feel like you’re listening to a friend who’s as invested in the story as you are.

The absolutely most powerful Evil in DC is the great Darkness. But since we have never actually seen IT personally, its first Herald can be considered the most powerful villain in DC. „The Empty Hand“. I mean , the guy casually treated Darkseid like a fucking Insect and destroyed a whole Multiverse

[@godslayer8894]

Tho technically the great darkness isn't evil and yes it is by far the most powerful force out there only equaled by God himself

[@cunnyman]

Great Darkness isn’t “evil” though. Perpetua was the most powerful villain but either she’s sealed now or dead. Darkest Knight kinda was too but he’s erased. Only Anti Monitor is left out of the celestial evil peepo. Darkseid is powerful but he’s no Anti-Monitor. Anti-Monitor at his peak was just unstoppable.

I found something nice to say about a DC comic for the first time in a while, I agree that Flash design with the bike is incredibly dope. I have never seen a Flash costume I liked, but this black and red biker-esque design is really good. Plus that bike is just enough Akira motorcycle, Star Wars speeder bike, and Cowboy Bepop spaceship to be the exact right mix of incredible. Make Flash able to focus the speed force through the bike to travel through space or something, then he has a reason to keep it. Then again I have never known DC to do things right, so I don't expect something like that to happen. He could even have a space Death Race with Lobo for some reason. Why not? Dudes on bikes, doing stuff. Sounds legit.
