Prodigy - Volume 1: The Evil Earth (2019) - Comic Story Explained

[@Sentient.A.I.]

I feel f'd up about them making you take down your invincible coverage then comics explained puts up even more in depth coverage with no issue just because he is a big creator.

[@iamthewizardwhoknocks2845]

I'm still salty about it, more so because I didn't download it.

[@JTAEKOOK4EVRR]

Yeah I personally enjoyed Danny's more

[@scottyknows7576]

Yup dannys explanation was great of invisible, and he did it first and waaay before the show was suppose to come out.

[@P8nplays]

That’s wild I was wondering where it went. Tbf Danny’s coverage is almost double comics explained from what I remember. Comics explained only has his short version of invincible up. Still sucks Danny is a top tier comic channel and he should be getting more love

[@fitnessbearsmirnov17]

As a Russian it was cringe worthy listening to Danny use a Russian accent but learning his secret dark fantasy about hunting down orphans when he becomes rich made me smile.

[@MsKuler]

>as a Russian Stfu, you are definitely not

[@DAV3RAG3]

@@MsKuler yeah Russians….

[@Rock33b]

I am American but I also thought the attempt at a Russian accent was terrible but at the same time hilarious

[@Rock33b]

If you are or you aren’t really Russian I stand by my last comment

[@ThatStevenLouis]

😂😂 Right on

[@Shaddowkhan]

This book was too fun. I could see this as a live action Netflix series over the top Raymond Reddinton.

[@zeusthegod9264]

Yeah this is very fun also a very great read

[@albireotheredguard1599]

Basically, Edison is the Western version of an Shonen Anime Protagonist.

[@naheemquattlebaum2267]

Edison is definitely a JoJo character

[@albireotheredguard1599]

@@naheemquattlebaum2267 Nah, he doesn't dress weird or strike enough poses!

[@mistahabdu2651]

He even has the talk no jutsu

[@jamesbutler3771]

So Edison is basically Dr. Manhattan in his head.

[@rasheedqe]

I love it. This is how Steven Seagal see himself everyday.

[@SM-rw6dt]

Finally! The crown jewel of Mark Millar's creations! Thanks Dannymalt. Keep up the awesome storytelling, dude! Love ya!

[@lamo1724]

This man's art is breathtaking! I thought I recognised the name but soon realised it's the same artist who did the American Vampire books. @dannymalt, you've done it again. Sunday Service! Xxx

Danny, you are a KZbin Gem!!! Keep rocking, never stopping!!!!

[@Shaddowkhan]

Danny always pick the best tracks, that intro to Edison was smooth.

[@lamo1724]

Drew me right in, great choice! Xxx

[@FrostSoul-qs6kq]

a good read after almost a year . good to be back Danny man.

[@mr.a8351]

Awesome video! Maybe you could do the original Hellblazer comics? Or the Alan Moore Swamp Thing run? Or Fables? Or the Animal Man comics by Grant Morrison? Or the original Static run? Or Doom Patrol also by Grant Morrison? Or Astro City? Or the original The Dreaming series? Or Hitman from the '90? Or the Grant Morrison X-Men run? Or All-Star Western from The New 52? Or the Punisher run by Grant Ennis? Or Saga? Or the newest Lucifer run? Or the first Vigilante run? Or Wonder Woman by George Perez? Or The Flash by Geoff Johns? Or The Walking Dead? Or Unknown Soldier by Grant Ennis?

[@BrotherWulfe]

Wow so many suggestions!

[@kreiyu]

lol that was some ridiculous fun. kind of reminded me, at one point, of the anime "haven't you heard? I'm Sakamoto." lol

[@BadgerOWesley]

Its a stupid wish fulfillment storyline, and im totally into it. Thank you.😊

[@striderreborn1467]

It took me a while to process what Prodigy's premise of a multi-talented super-genius going on adventures reminded me of but then suddenly it struck me... Buckaroo Banzai! lol

[@dustinmaxwell259]

He also reminds me of Marvel's own Prodigy. But Mark actually did something with his version instead of depowering him + shoving him off to the side.

[@LucLightWolf121]

He's Millar's take on Mr. Terrific (Michael Holt) but without the mask and motorcycle gear that he wears.

[@shuwilson1460]

He’s basically an OP Mister Terrific. Still here for it tho!

[@pyrolee17]

Full honest, this video really got me really hankering to watch Buckaroo Banzai again. I'm really looking forward to this getting an adaption some day.

[@naheemquattlebaum2267]

Yes!!

[@jamesbutler3771]

IKR!😆

[@Sam-ep2yo]

Nice video, Danny! You chose a wonderful conclusion to Millar if I do say so myself. Here's to more comic greatness, and future orphan hunting of course lol

[@kingsrefuge]

After that intro I thought I was gunna hate this but this story just pulls you in. I would love to see this turned into a movie. ONLY if they follow the exact storyline.

[@clayjoseph8]

Definitely 8.5 and quite possibly a 9 just on that the main character is so curiously flushed out in such a way that you root for him despite his constant overweening analysis on himself, adding in on the other side you have the over confident devious mindset and sick ideals of the villans. Easily a 9.5..!!

[@BrotherMag]

He felt too O.P. like rey from star wars

[@didactic02]

My favorite storyteller bro. Your channel is great!

[@jaredferguson8846]

Danny you gotta lower the background music like 2 notches, other than that good work keep it up

[@blackbaynes2183]

Lol now I want a tv series on this for real 😉💯

[@Sentient.A.I.]

I see Edison in Damascus putting on the hat looking like The Rock in Jungle Cruise lol.

[@xic777]

This comic is damn good, great job narrating

[@juddyrobinson6743]

You picked a superb novel to read. I’m honestly subscribing to this channel just so I don’t miss you reading the conclusion to Prodigy

[@jackieanderson9408]

Finally. A black comic.👍

[@21broadway]

I love Raphael Albuquerque's art style! Since American Vampire, I've really enjoyed his work!

[@iamthewizardwhoknocks2845]

Thanks!

[@BIGALEX_DRDOOM]

Would be nice to have a movie made from this. 🙏🏽

[@kaimargonar1000]

It's gonna need a super charismatic guy for the lead. Back then maybe Will Smith. Now? Probably Tenet guy or Michael b Jordan.

[@naheemquattlebaum2267]

I would love for Prodigy to get the anime treatment like Supercrooks.

[@studburna]

we need more Millar! hehe

[@LORDSofCHAOS333]

Prodigy this guy man he is on cartoon levels of a smart ass . i bet he can build a Japanese robot just for him self like the gundom one

[@petemarqdadon]

this is a great title

[@darrenwashington9842]

I like Prodigy The comic book. I'm glad to see a guy who is enhanced intelligent and possesses great fighting skills against his attackers. A male needs to know how to handle himself in any situation. It pays to learn some kind of a self-defense in these perilous days and crazy times if you know what I mean. A million thank you. Take care and Be safe. Guy.

[@clintoneke7]

Did anyone watch the super crooks anime? I thought it was pretty good 👍

[@sonicboom104]

I thought it was leaps and bounds better than the live action tv show. Hell I thought it was some cool unheard of anime for a while until I saw all the utopian and super max references.

[@clintoneke7]

@@sonicboom104 I was not expecting that pool scene.

[@chrisfelder7029]

Never heard of a guy talking the bad guy on to his side??? This guy's never heard of Naruto's strongest jitsu... The TalkNoJustsu 😂😂😂😂

[@calebheaxt9033]

Bro I was eating Skittles when you made the joke about never being rich enough to go orphan hunting LOL I nearly choked I would be okay with going out like that😂😂

[@CactusJackIV]

Maybe one of the better Millar books in resent years. I use to know a guy everyone called King Cush(for different reasons)

[@RawB242]

this was totally awesome!!

[@itsalwayshalloweenexceptwh5118]

Edison is a Gary Stu character but I don't hate it.

[@naheemquattlebaum2267]

There's a way to do Gary Stu/Mary Sue characters right. If the absurdity of the plot is set up in the beginning then we're more accepting of these characters.

[@brucenatelee]

So far, I'm getting Gary Stu vibes. Open heart surgery as a kid? Yeah... definitely some kind of satire.

[@NerobianShow]

Edison just used Talk no Jutsu in the henchmen 😂

[@dexdomain6406]

The story was great but they could have taken it to more interesting direction. I was surprised when you said that the parallel universe plot was uninteresting but you were right. I think they focused too much on trying to convince us that he was special instead of creating a problem that he solved to shkw us he was special. I was expecting Kush to be him from the other earth. Anyway it is what it is.

[@minglee7108]

Rockstar games needs to develop a game based on this.

Thanks

[@rushpatel1350]

I think this is ripe for adaptation. I enjoyed reading it...it could be a limited series if adapted to live-action

[@mlgreen111]

Live action would mess it up. The writers would nerf the character saying "no one would relate to a guy who always wins and always has a solution" even though that's the whole point of the character. Either that or they will cringe it up somehow.

[@gamezob]

20:55 its called talk no jutsu. look it up.

[@SuperRONDALE]

This man mastered the most powerful technique in anime

[@dustinmaxwell259]

I can remember other characters performing ridiculous feats. Doogie Howser -The Teen Doctor That Man Flint- He was almost just like Edison Defusing a bomb while in mid air- James Bond anyone? Maybe it was another character. But Bond pulled off some pretty ridiculous stunts. Charlie's Angels- Ciimbing into and flying a helicopter as it was falling off a cliff. Ethan Hunt from the MI series. Some stunts from the Fast+ Furious franchise The list just goes on. Just make the comic a bit more edgy/gritty and it would be a guaranteed Hollywood Blockbuster.
