It will take the combined might of the World’s Greatest Heroes as you’ve never seen them before to face what’s coming their way!
▸ Who Is Batman: Batman is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger, and debuted in the 27th issue of the comic book Detective Comics on March 30, 1939. In the DC Universe continuity, Batman is the alias of Bruce Wayne, a wealthy American playboy, philanthropist, and industrialist who resides in Gotham City. Batman's origin story features him swearing vengeance against criminals after witnessing the murder of his parents Thomas and Martha as a child, a vendetta tempered with the ideal of justice. He trains himself physically and intellectually, crafts a bat-inspired persona, and monitors the Gotham streets at night. Kane, Finger, and other creators accompanied Batman with supporting characters, including his sidekicks Robin and Batgirl; allies Alfred Pennyworth, James Gordon, and Catwoman; and foes such as the Penguin, the Riddler, Two-Face, and his archenemy, the Joker.
Kane conceived Batman in early 1939 to capitalize on the popularity of DC's Superman; although Kane frequently claimed sole creation credit, Finger substantially developed the concept from a generic superhero into something more bat-like. The character received his own spin-off publication, Batman, in 1940. Batman was originally introduced as a ruthless vigilante who frequently killed or maimed criminals, but evolved into a character with a stringent moral code and strong sense of justice. Unlike most superheroes, Batman does not possess any superpowers, instead relying on his intellect, fighting skills, and wealth. The 1960s Batman television series used a camp aesthetic, which continued to be associated with the character for years after the show ended. Various creators worked to return the character to his darker roots in the 1970s and 1980s, culminating with the 1986 miniseries The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller.
DC has featured Batman in many comic books, including comics published under its imprints such as Vertigo and Black Label. The longest-running Batman comic, Detective Comics, is the longest-running comic book in the United States. Batman is frequently depicted alongside other DC superheroes, such as Superman and Wonder Woman, as a member of organizations such as the Justice League and the Outsiders. In addition to Bruce Wayne, other characters have taken on the Batman persona on different occasions, such as Jean-Paul Valley / Azrael in the 1993-1994 "Knightfall" story arc; Dick Grayson, the first Robin, from 2009 to 2011; and Jace Fox, son of Wayne's ally Lucius, as of 2021. DC has also published comics featuring alternate versions of Batman, including the incarnation seen in The Dark Knight Returns and its successors, the incarnation from the Flashpoint (2011) event, and numerous interpretations from Elseworlds stories.

[@ReynaldoVillanueva]

Dark Knight metal, the best thing coming out of DC right now!

[@someoneelse4939]

It really is!

[@madscientistshusta]

azsincitymagic true

[@uverdog]

Nights*

[@getbuckets2022]

not even debatable

[@kaicurteis]

IT REALLY IS!

[@dungeonmasteromega]

In case people are wondering, the Endless are conceptual beings that are able to survive reboots of the multiverse. They retain memories of every iteration of the DC Multiverse, which makes them among the most powerful and significant characters ever created in DC comics, even if half the readers have no idea who they are.

[@GKinslayer]

In DC, the Endless are things above gods, but you are pretty on point, they ARE, what their names are, but it seems they are not required for that thing to continue. For example, in Sandman, Destruction quit being one of the Endless. He decides he was tired of being like that and decided to live among people and in fact hid from his fellow endless for a very long time. Also, the Endless can change, Delirium, is revealed to have originally have been Delight. But I think it was Destruction quitting which caused her to change. In the image you showed of Delirium, the dog with her, was Destruction's dog at first. Delirium kind of forced Dream to help her find Destruction - it's a great story line. But one other thing you are very on point on, Dream showing up is HUGE. I think Dream has only shown up to interact with DC heroes like 3 or so times. The first was in the beginning of Sandman where he encounters John Constantine for the first time and Martian Manhunter. An hey, Rob, if you would like to chat ever, would love to, I am a 51 yr old comic fan and have been so since I was 3, so needless to say, I remember a thing or 2.

[@ghostarmor87]

I'm a marvel fan but this dark universe sounds cool as hell....im curious about the Endless...i love the idea of multiverses and abstract entities

[@darkwyve]

If you really like those kinds of things, you should totally check out the Sandman series that Rob references (and that Dream is the main character in; though you see plenty of the other Endless as well). I own the hardback collection of the whole series, and it was worth every penny. One of the few series I've actually enjoyed enough to go back and read multiple times (not to mention has tons of foreshadowing elements that you catch the second time around as well.)

[@Boxedpapi]

Willie Leon thats how I felt this looks cool but I'm marvel fan

[@sithmaster4305]

There's a guy called parallel axis or something along those lines that did a video recently on the endless and basically how they work. You can go check it out the guy makes pretty solid videos.

[@mr.dccomics9018]

hecatomb DC Vertigo is the reason why people say DC is dark.

[@RessG]

Being a marvel fan doesn't mean you can't love other comics, don't be like those fans who living in 1 dimensional world.

[@jcmmmbrains2718]

Woah hold on a second there Rob. Neil Gaiman's Sandman was significantly more than how you described the storyline... almost to the point that it's nothing like how you described it. Definitely deserves a read.

[@Mwiiaaou]

I was wondering when you'd cover some of the Neil Gaiman's Dream man. One of the few comic book serie I ever read entirely. Very trippy. Good vid, hyped for more about those alternate batman.

[@nognit]

Mwiiaaou I would especially love to hear his breakdown of the family dynamic between the Endless ones especially Destiny and Death.

[@bananakandy1]

Check out The Imaginary Axis Channel, he made a vid on it

[@FimbongBass]

lol yes he should

[@owenreese2216]

This is one of the few instances where I’ve read a comic and still needed to watch your video of it.

[@gradyharding5294]

Rob PLEASE do the Sandman 1!!! I would absolutely love to hear your take on that story.

[@deacba87]

Sandman Overture is crazy too XD

[@evanabbott2737]

Oh man I would love that. I’m a HUGE sandman fan😁

[@marcogomez2736]

ComicsExplained, Regarding the question on "what the dark multiverse is" and the apparent paradox you mention: "if dark multiverse precedes dc's multiverse, people couldn't have dreamed about it in the first place", what if dreams are, in fact, a memory or reminisce of a past alternative reality we have experienced: the different dark multiverses "me" which I perceive as an echoe: the dream. Because our connection to this other realities is imperfect, veiled, the dreams are chaotic, but they would make bits and pieces of this realities. Perhaps as in the story of the forge, the most unstable, imperfect, even evil realities which result of our wrong destions were ment to be destroyed, in a slow, but sure road to perfection: a light multiverse (current multiverse being a step in that road). But when the Dragon (Barbatos) revel, this evil realities persisted, though disconnected of the main path. Barbatos which.may have remained trapped as master of said darkness realm, would now be attempting to open the door to the main stream, so that darkness would be now will substitute light in this eternal cycle

[@AfolSam]

@ComicsExplained is the best thing coming out of Dark Knights: Metal. Period.

[@gibbnasta]

Dark Knights Metal is the best DC story arc in awhile.

[@lordr1c325]

Hey Rob i know that you didnt really delve too deep into who Dream of the Endless was but it should be noted that this version of Dream is the grandson of Carter Hall named Daniel Hall. There's ALOT of history regarding his character, some of it a little confusing and convoluted but still pretty cool nonetheless.

[@namjoonssexybrain1679]

El Rice Wait, so that’s not the Dream I’m thinking of from Sandman? Or is that him?

[@lordr1c325]

Lord Beric Dondarrion I'm not sure what you mean since Sandman is a title used to refer to Dream of the Endless. But if you're referring to the Sandman that Rob showed in the vid, then no. That one i think is called Morpheus or something. This one that shows up in Metal #1 is Daniel Hall. He is Morpheus' successor.

[@nognit]

Lord Beric Dondarrion Morpheus “died”(passed on) and Daniel Hall is his successor (reincarnation) because Dream is immortal. The Sandman comic is quite coy about whether he actually died(even though there was a funeral for him by His Siblings) or whether Carter is actually him reincarnated.

[@thomasclawson7183]

Daniel is both Daniel Hall and Dream. When an Endless 'dies' (and it can be considered death, as Death comes to her siblings at their 'end') they are 'replaced' by themselves. This being both is and isn't the previous Endless. They have all of the memories and experience and view themselves as the same creature, but they understand that they have come after and that there was a previous. To put it in much much simpler terms; Daniel is the Form, Dream is the Spirit.

[@namjoonssexybrain1679]

El Rice I meant is he the same one from the Sandman comics, but the rest of your comment answers it for me, I never finished Sandman, haha. I need to. Thanks for answering my question, both you and the other two, very helpful!

[@LemosArt0987]

Rob this is why I'm a proud member of the Corps! Thanks for your overview, I'm keeping up with the comics and really enjoying the extra tidbits of info I got from this video.

[@bigassassin805]

The zord looked cool and was fun to see. That's why it was there. D.C. does that every now and then. They are a comic. Lol

[@mittensfastpaw]

The name rocks! The story rocks! DC is just hitting it out of the park right now.

[@johnnyscifi]

PPS: Dream (Daniel) showing up is like when the One Above All showed himself to Peter Parker/Spiderman!!!

[@Goochy1583]

I have been thinking about those Rob Core Rings a lot over the last few days, when you mentioned that talking about Dream of the Endless it was a bit shocking.

[@almonroe9652]

I'm loving it. The Justice League is getting battered - it's been a great build-up so far. Hopefully they'll be able to keep things going when Barbatos finally shows up.

[@ShadowedHandParish]

you didn't get them wrong Rob. This is a criminally under-appreciated series but also very hard to describe in this format due to how all the threads take forever to tie together.

[@venoumusgammer4112]

Scott Snyder is amazing. This Arc and the whole idea of the Dark Multiverse us great. A set of universes doomed to end and some batmen from those universes sided with a demon to take over the positive Multiverse

[@omegalock3549]

It makes you sympathize with a lot of them. They push themselves to places they normally wouldn't and after all their sacrifices learn that their world is doomed to fail from the beginning. Of course they'd come and take over the positive multiverse.

[@venoumusgammer4112]

Omega Lock ikr. Kinda sad. They fell to a point they normally wouldn't to be better Herod just for it to be futile

[@CNNBlackmailSupport]

VenoumusGammer here is the part that bugs me... sure, doomed to fail, I get it. But WHEN did they fail? This implies that all those universes just happened to fail at the same time based on Batman related cause of death. Were they "destined to fail" if they all lasted billions of years? Apparently they were all going fine until our Batman, in our age, suffered some loss. Dawnbreaker is both the worst and best example, because he's the only true universe ender, but he's also the one that was evil the longest. Hell, the drowned didn't even end the universe, just earth. She's not a universal threat like red death and dawnbreaker are. The logic is inconsistent unless a)barbatos can alter time. B) Gotham (or earth) is the focus of whether a universe is a fail or not. C) in every dark universe, Batman is Bruce Wayne and Bruce Wayne is a billionaire, despite being doomed to fail. (Which means that despite the world failing, Bruce Wayne is still a success.) It's just silly to try and make it this big deal when "evil bat spirit yanks batmen out of potential worlds" works without "worlds that were doomed!!!!"

[@CNNBlackmailSupport]

Omega Lock why wouldn't they search for the positive universe that still held the family members they lost? The only reason they wouldn't would be they aren't sympathetic, but evil. Like "I lost my Alfred, so I'm searching for a new universe to... destroy their Alfred. " It isn't a Batman who had a bad day, it's a bad Batman.

[@venoumusgammer4112]

CNN Blackmail Support maybe the date. Like October 28 in Earth 0 is October 28 in Earth 6 and Negative 6 and so on. The universes all exist on the same timeline in the sense that the day is always the same in every universe. So maybe once they hit whatever be day they all start collapsing in on its self. In one Negative universe it may have just been Batmans laundry day for all we know

[@warnerconcepcion9929]

You may not see this, but I'd like to thank you for what you're doing. I've been watching the New to Batman playlist but I stopped at "The Joker Becomes a Good Guy" because I tend to watch this at work and since then I've been super busy. But the main reason why I'm thanking you, is because, you gave me and my wife something to do during our 1st Anniversary stay-cation in NYC. We didn't go with a plan. Only to relax without the kids and we stopped by Midtown Comics and found The Dark Nights Metal tie-ins starting with The Red Death, and we spent our 2 days buying the comics and reading the together. We missed out on the 1st printing foil cover of The Red Death, but we got the 1st printing foils of the following 4 (Murder Machine, Drowning, Dawnbreaker, and Merciliess (when it came out yesterday)). And the only reason why we went in there is because you lured me back into buying comics. So... thanks man. My wife and I spent our time getting out minds blown from this amazing story thanks to you.

[@omegalock3549]

Have you checked out the Metal event comics as well as the prequels and tie ins? The one shots are cool but I hope you get the full story. I hope you and your wife get into the rest of DC rebirth as well.

[@warnerconcepcion9929]

Thanks. I just ordered the Metal comics that came out before those tie-ins. I think it was 3 issues, right? We ended up getting the tie-ins because we had to know how Batman got the other powers. As for rebirth, we haven't gotten into them yet.

[@evanabbott2737]

Wow! This is the coolest series I’ve seen in awhile. Incorporating the endless?? I’m a huge sandman fan so...holy shit!!👍👍👍👍

[@OscillatorCollective]

Wow....just wow...it’s so cool to see the vertigo characters interact with the mainline characters

[@gabogoblin]

Do more Sandman and the Endless!!!!!!!!!

[@lordr1c325]

Rob you have to do the Power Rangers/Justice League crossover. Its waaaay better than it should be.

[@lowbudgetadvocate4879]

make a video about it

[@johnnyscifi]

Are u sure it exists? I dont think it does...

[@MultiTaz333]

BIlly Ray fuck off power rangers at least the original was awesome after the original it got really boring

[@JasonRage6]

fuck off Billy Ray

[@nickstuyf857]

YOU DID IT ROB! MY FAVOURITE DC STORY BY MY FAVOURITE WRITER! THE ENDLESS LIVE ON!

[@OhitsONnow]

5:49 the answer is pretty simple, its because everything can always use a good giant combining robot. Everything.

[@SaaltyBravo]

Dark Nights METAL is freaking Amazing.

[@daemonvelaryon5617]

This story is amazing, this needs to be a movie.

[@vonsydow5196]

Man ty Btw im converting my Doomsday cosplay into Devastator Batman after watching your vids so TY

[@dlvlne666]

HOLY CRAP THEY MADE DREAM LOOK AMAZING!!!! SOOO HYPED

[@ashleydeniserouleau8364]

Awesome video!!! Can’t wait for the next one 😄😄

[@angelm703]

Bout damn time you covered the 1st issue man! So hyped about this series

[@MadroxMcCox]

You got all the Endless correct. One note, Delirium was once Delight. Plus it took me forever to find out Destructions name as his name was never mentioned as far as I could find out, so very well done on that one sir.

[@tobyism]

Dream is like the Great Cosmic Owl, if he shows up... something is happening. Also Rob, Sandman would be an amazing series to do. I reread it every so often but would love to hear you freak out.

[@Wildthing1701]

Awesome video. Big fan of you channel Rob, all the way from New Zealand! Rob Corp!

[@celestinosilva8681]

and death... its Desire, Despair, Destiny, Dream, Death, Delirium, Destruction... man i love the endless, a video on those guys would be awesome

[@JonDaGoat]

RobCore! I've been trying to get a ring for months.. :/ I couldn't manage without these videos! Thanks for being you!

[@OGMrWayne]

Just when it was getting good we get the infamous "Peace" awesome vid as always.

[@TheArcSet]

For those who have never heard of the Endless. While I cannot urge people enough to explore these works, to all who are yet to venture into this these worlds, one aspect of the suggested video is misleading. Across most of the many stories in this series, abet with some key exceptions, Morpheus and his siblings are often simply observers or extras in the protagonist’s stories, perhaps noticed, perhaps not, maybe invoked by the actors, or by a call of duty to be present, but perhaps just passing through. The vast majority of these stories are about humanity in all its strangeness, human weakness, human strength, those who might come to see themselves as they are, those who hide in delusions and those who’s ‘madness keeps’ them ‘sane’. In the story of the first and last emperor of the United States of America, Dream actually tries to tell Delirium (who we must not forget, was once Delight) and Desire that the Endless are the human’s dolls. Despair cannot lose herself, no matter how many times the weight of her purpose and her life becomes too heavy compared to her hooks, Destruction can only keep running and Death will endure and outlast all, even Destiny and his book, until the spark of the last sun turns cold and she locks the door to the multiverse behind her; the Endless reflect life, not the other way around. There are still strange beasts and certainly monsters between those pages, betwixt fea, magic and miracles in the modern age, but the darkest monsters are always still people and nightmares as well as dreams are both born from our own natures and the deepest desires in our murky hearts.

[@antediluvian99]

Dude, Rob’s unpacking skillz are unrivaled.

[@thejameslock1]

great break down Rob! Thank you!

[@lancep2002]

You need to go read the Sandman... cause if you haven't you don't know what you're missing. That series is a work of art.

[@Chandasouk]

Aw shiiiet! Been waiting on something like this. I've been reading a lot of the Dark Nights Metal stuff but my head is usually spinning since I haven't been reading DC for a long time.

[@kevinortiz1810]

Hey rob. What vid should I watch to start me of on these dark metal vids ur making. Cuz I’m kinda lost on how all this happened

[@InexplicableMan89]

Love your videos.. Please find a synonym for basically, and I'll follow you hahaha

[@DonJuanAlejandro]

Hey, I'm a recent follower. Comic reading since the wee days. Just gotta say I love your videos. Very detailed and accurate. Keep up the great work!!!

[@legion7765]

Hey man just wanted to let you know i love your content and the way you break the comics down! Whatever I read these days I ALWAYS go back to listen to your breakdowns after I read em.. are you gonna do captain marvels legacy issues soon ?

[@PathsUnwritten]

Thank you for not continuously shouting "Metal!" like Benny does.

[@kidboxer993]

OMG Dark Days : The Casting/Forge are a mix of lovecraftian horror and superhero comics. It just mixes so well with each other, like peanut and chocolate!!!!!!!! ;)

[@elijahkennedy3150]

Nice content rob #1 explaination on comics for youtube👍👍

[@skymoore3177]

Really like this MORE PLZ! The Endless sounds cool

[@warnerconcepcion9929]

Also - sidenote: Merciless is insane! I was able to pick it up yesterday while it was still hot and damn man. It's no joke.

[@Bryan-fd2uf]

Hey Rob I’m a BIG fan of the Endless would you mind talking about them on the channel

[@thewinteragendadraganclove2323]

Quality content as always! You are an omega level creator!! xD

[@esaande6935]

The dark multiverse appears to be the DC version of Marvel's negative zone .... but with a much more interesting story behind it ....

[@AKJ828]

Looks like rob should catch up on some vertigo comics... loved the video!!

[@zionpryor392]

Does this dude never stop blowing your mind

[@jeellow1]

You finally discussed the Endless!!!!!! Now do a full playlist please!!!!!!!!

[@wurlbfree1981]

Let's go #robcorp!

[@fredrichardson5270]

The only way to beat the nights, is to fight them in a dream world. At least that's my thought.

[@awashington8447]

Beautiful illustrations, convoluted story

[@RonOnTheWay]

Good video Rob!

[@EKEN55]

Awesome narration Rob

[@vincentguilmitti8597]

Rob for Omega/Beyond level can you do Lucifer Morninstar?

[@Lakefront_Khan]

Vincent Guilmitti He already said he would.

[@vincentguilmitti8597]

Ohhh ok im sorry I must have not seen it my bad sorry

[@ludoren4222]

Mr420Spy no it's morningstar not mourning

[@noahlillis6602]

Mr420Spy it's a theological thing. It comes from the Bible verse that says "O, day star, son of the morning how art thou fallen?"

[@noahlillis6602]

Mr420Spy not like a star in mourning, which would be a sad star lol

[@916marcos]

That was amazing! Thank you

[@ism3r3tl3n]

I was waiting for the Endless for sooooooo long . Please make a long video about them . Pretty please !

[@MatthewWillis3]

I have HIGH expectations for this series... and "the man who laughs" back story. I hope to God that it doesn't disappoint. Some of it I will say is kinda dumb... but other aspects are fucking amazing and genius, like a dark multiverse or evil batmans (batmen?), showing that NO ONE is incorruptible no matter how self righteous. I love batman to death, but to see these aspects of him, like murder machine, is refreshing.

[@redkawa3701]

Please do a video on the endless. they are done better than marvel's cosmic beings and in my opinion should be brought back.

[@geoffreysorkin5774]

I can't wait for Rob's reaction in the Dark Knights Metal 2 video to Batman holding baby Darkseid.

[@Run1tBackTV]

the only thing I know about the endless is that who ever death falls in love with that person will die and you she only appears when you are in between life and death on the brink but I am not 100% sure

[@ArcticMontys]

By any chance do you ever go to Fan Expo in Vancouver, British Columbia? Also loving your videos

[@ManfredGarrish]

SANDMAN!!!! I love sandman, this is definetly the best thing coming out of D.C. Rebirth

[@gerardranches4647]

The Voltron bit in the beginning could be a foreshadowing of how they'll beat the dark Batmen later on.

[@legion7765]

Also yes DCs metal is awesome! And white knight is pretty awesome also... Whoops and the nightwing new order is pretty awesome too

[@Curly4Superman]

Wait, what’s going on with the whole “Button” storyline and how does that tie into this? You know, the Watchman business

[@yvesthekoala9038]

Curly4Superman as far as we know, the watchmen and dark Knight metal are not connected what so ever

[@CNNBlackmailSupport]

Metal is Batman, button is superman. That's the basic line between the two.

[@theoneguynamedjesus]

CNN Blackmail Support but they’re both same universe so how are they not connect?? And fucking batman had an issue to do with the damn button so how is it on Superman only. You act like Superman ain’t I’m metal as well.

[@yvesthekoala9038]

theoneguynamedjesus Because Superman will be meeting up with Dr Manhattan in December, Batman won't be there. Plus Dark knights metal has to deal with Barbatos. Unless they make Manhattan or someone from Watchmen appear during Dark knights metal, the two events don't have anything to do with one another

[@CNNBlackmailSupport]

theoneguynamedjesus I don't act like anything. The button is a superman centric story. Kind of like how the new testament is a Jesus centric story. Doesn't mean he's not in other stories, but one is his story and the others aren't. The button is a superman story. Superman is the main character and it deals with superman lore. Metal is a Batman story. Batman is the main character and it deals with Batman lore. Make sense? If not, then blame DC. They are the ones who wrote it like that. Everyone here is just pointing that out to you, and you are "acting like" superman being a side character in a Batman book makes it a superman book too. Sometimes, when you take a crap, you also pee, but you don't call it "taking a crap and peeing" because the main idea is the one that matters. So you either take a piss or take a crap, and never call it doing both unless that was the idea from the beginning.

[@jasonpletz863]

Awesome as always Rob! Have you done a Wonder Woman VS Ms Marvel yet? Also for fun, what about that swing in ham Peter Porker?

[@PomaiKajiyama]

I've been leaving comics asking about the Endless and whether you thought they would be reintroduced into the new continuity. The last sandman novel is actually a really cool book that turns the entire series into a cyclical story with the universe being remade with a few people that Dream rescues from across the multiverse who then Dream the new universe into existence.

[@asantiago2039]

The dream about getting a rob corp ring... Haha you nailed it

[@FreakUzi]

This might as well be the most elaborate way of bringing back the Infinite multiverse not just having 52 universes OR Else world stories making a return

[@Jarrik73]

I love the subtle rockers salute they put into the cover. \m/, (Or however it's shown in text format. /shrug)

[@XsigmaZ]

"Barbatos His name derives from Latin barbatus, meaning "bearded, old man of the demon of hell, philosopher". He is the 8th demon in The Lesser Key of Solomon, while Pseudomonarchia Daemonum lists him as the 6th demon. He is also mentioned in Grand Grimoire as subordinate of Satanachia.[1]" dc metal anyone?

[@mikelboyd711]

Rob you and Benny are killing it!! I watched some of the other channels trying to explain or read these stories.... and they suck!! I'm gonna need an amalgamation of comics explained and comicstorian. (Comic Exstorian) LOL

[@omegalock3549]

Comicstorians Explain

[@BruceTheguy3789]

Could you please cover sandman

[@komarkko1]

The Sandman and Death comics are master pieces

[@Rick.Colver]

Never heard of The Endless before today. Today, I've seen 2 separate videos from different years with no mention of them in the title but still having information on them.

[@lorvincent]

Holy crap, O_O ancient Kai'ckul has returned to the DC landscape.

[@Vyom4676]

Awesome explanation dude.

[@searinglight1]

Loving the way they are pulling the long strings showing the interconnectedness of the wider DC universe, From Batman being his own ancestor to Dream being Carters Grandson, to The Challengers of the Unknown, (for a little while there i thought they were going to bring in Elijah Snow and the Planetary folks from Wildstorm....) To the rest of the Endless to the Blackhawk Squadron. Its all connected...and im pretty sure when the final act is called it will be epic

[@FlashByKnight]

Dropping my like already!

[@ryanstewart5727]

Yes! The Endless are awesome, you definitely need to read all of the Sandman series.

[@ArchAngelEmmanuel]

Hey Rob, for some reason, when you showed "The endless", I immediately thought of the movie "13 Ghosts". Anyhow.... could you please do a video on them? Cheers!

[@tracy1986]

I'm enjoying the content!!!!

[@cristiancubillos5642]

Rob, Dream is Daniel Hall, son of Hector Hall the son of Carter Hall and Shiera Hall, the Golden Age heroes known as Hawkman and Hawkgirl. HE IS THERE FOR A REASON

[@merrq1]

Dude rob has the best fucking comic channel ever

[@Lonedrumstick55]

I lost it when Dream showed up. Sandman is one of the best of all time.

[@cmvia8k]

best thing coming out of dc right now

[@Fuzzycat16]

Man....Thanks for your videos .

[@CynicalPete]

i think i see the source of your confusion Rob: the Dark Multiverse itself, or the dimension in which it resides at least, is older than the main Multiverse, but the worlds within it may have only started appearing once life evolved in the main Multiverse. that's what i think anyway

[@thumbs4fingers]

Most of your videos start with you saying either "Okay..." or "Man...". Not an insult, i try and guess which one before the video starts 😀

[@Red_Lanterns_Rage]

some start with let me tell ya something Rob Corps....lilz, i love those ones cus you know it's gonna be really good :]
