Deadman is also responsible for my all-time favorite Superman line: "You have to use a spoon! Why am I in Africa?"

"The milkshakes there are so thick, I need your help."

[@benjaminmuratore9341]

Honestly, this story seems like a decent jumping on point for newcomers to Deadman.

[@alexbailey5211]

Yeah definitely. Wish there were more easily available trades of deadman stories. I would totally get them.

[@DeathofInk]

A somewhat romantic and eerie end segment. Very fitting.

😁😁

You know, I like to imagine that someone keeps taking the Longbox from Moarte and burying it in the graveyard, and everyday Moarte has to trudge out there, unbury it once again, bring it back to the set, and give his review of the next comic.

[@AkumaKristian]

While it makes no sense, I'm now just imagining that Linkara's group takes it in turns to bury the box. I can imagine Harvey loudly wondering what the point even is when anyone reminds him that it's his turn.

[@pieceofschmidtgamer]

It would certainly explain why he's always so grumpy. I bet it's 90s Kid.

[@jfdrac]

@@AkumaKristian Or why they keep putting it in the same spot lol

[@asalways1504]

Oooo, a Dead Man story! An underrated superhero that always gets overlooked when it comes to macabre themed comics.

[@dvass7253]

Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a godsend for the DC Universe.

[@johnathonhaney8291]

If you haven't already, seek out the Batman collection The Deadman Connection, still a fave.

[@lazyuniverse4932]

This is an awesome Deadman story. As someone who loves learning/experiencing deadman. I'm always eager to see and learn more about him. Plus the story is pretty cool and we get to see how deadman deals with a larger than life threat for a hero of his caliber. So cool story and review

[@bizarroguy6570]

Man, Deadman is an underrated character

[@Rixec2]

Always nice to see some Deadman tales going around.

[@nazishhussain2712]

This is giving sleepy hollows vibes

[@thunderforceninja5445]

How did I not see it sooner, if you put linkara's hat and glasses on moarte.....he'd look pretty sharp 🤔

[@johnathonhaney8291]

Ah, Deadman...co-lead of my all-time favorite Batman story, The Deadman Connection. Good to see him still getting some love!

[@LucasDarkGiygas]

Never heard of this story. Thanks for the recommendation.

[@MaziQ_plus]

7:21 YAY!!!!🙌

[@ProfessM]

I want this as a movie.

[@xanderwardwell-gaw7472]

We're halfway through, folks.

[@FatalLordAce]

Wait how did Sam resist deadman’s powers and in fact eject him from other people?

[@jfdrac]

Dont you know anything about MAGIC?

[@Swishy_Blue]

Heard that todd in the shadows voice over work. You did great, even though you had some...questionable... material. Happiest Hallows!

[@lixandrocastro8637]

Thank you.

5:35 those images in the book are from theoghma Infinium, a book in Skyrim.

[@charleshalloran8006]

Wow. That was an amazing review of an amazingly haunted tale evolving my favorite superhero ghost Deadman. Will have to seek this book out as I would like to possess it.👻

[@Bezaliel13]

So much for "deadmen tell no tales." jk

[@171QA]

Great video as always, Moarte!

[@GrandArchPriestOfTheAlgorithm]

The Church of the Algorithm gives this video its blessing, and must it stay clear of the blasphemers from The First Algorithmic Temple (and the many people impersonating their members).

[@BrandonCroker]

Love is Spoopy.

[@kuitaranheatmorus9932]

Nice video

[@hirosoli]

Oh, hey! I've read this one!

Even the dead, need love 🎃💜

Not many superheroes this year....guess no FrankenCastle then

[@joeb8935]

So... why did the guy repel deadman?

[@xavierfrendick6581]

So... Okay, I'll preface this by making it clear I'm only repeating information, not saying anything one way or the other about it. But Sam is non-binary, and it was (sort of canonically) established within the DC Universe that magic doesn't necessarily play well with... Is non-cisgendered individuals an appropriate phrase? So maybe that has something to do with it? Or maybe it was love. I really hope it was love that protected them.

[@joeb8935]

@@xavierfrendick6581 huh, that’s... a thing

[@xavierfrendick6581]

@@joeb8935 It... Certainly was a thing. It was the 90's, and in context, it... Was a little bit better, maybe? But yeah... Definitely a... Choice that was made.

[@FearBoo]

Nice story, being non-binary is very important for the SAM character ಠ╭╮ಠ really?
