Hardcore Marvel fan Here DC Rebirth is amazing. Marvel as it stands today is pure trash -Amazing Spider-man is BORING -All New All Different Avengers... is just there. -Invincible Iron man is meh -The Totally awesome Hulk is irrelevant -International Iron man is boring -Mighty Thor is an insult -All the X-men books are just convoluted and confusing. -Civil War II Has fantastic art yet the premise is just so utterly retarded that it's hard to enjoy. So many people acting out of character. Fighting over dumbshit. And theses are marvel supposedly flagship titles The only good ones are Luke cage and Iron Fist Vision Spider-man(miles Morales)(honestly this book is what Amazing Spider-man SHOULD be) Black Widow(So I've heard) Khamala Khan(So I've heard) There are a select few other gems(that I can't remember), but NONE of them are the flagship titles, which is a giant problem. Almost EVERYTHING I've read in DC:Rebirth is great. Especially the Superman books(Superman is cool again btw)

Man, Marvel is going through hard times. Their stories are so bad right now and I'm saying it as Marvel fan. All x-men and Inhumans books are boring and tasteless... only ones I like are Ultimates, Luke Cage and Iron Fist, Deadpool ( even though it's getting boring to see him ONLY suffer, it was cool some time ago but seeing your favorite character suffer non stop can get frustrating and it comes from Joe Kelly's fan. Joe Kelly made Wade suffer A LOT but he knew when to stop) I heard that Vision is good Uncanny Avengers isn't that bad either Old Man Logan is action packed masterpiece Captain America Steve Rogers could be good but it is so slow... the story has potential but man... it's really slow EDIT I forgot about few Moon Knight is excellent Daredevil is also cool

Disagree about The Mighty Thor and Invincible Iron Man. Imo, the Mighty Thor is one of the best comics written today from Marvel or DC. I would argue most of Marvel's comics are good or great, but the negative reaction to Civil War II seems to dictate readers perception of Marvel comics in general. I collected most of the Rebirth one-shots and #1s', but I only kept Aquaman and Superman on my pull list because the others fell flat for me.

I never read a comic in my life, however I knew pretty much every major character in the DC Universe from animations or movies, but I never tried to read comics up until Rebirth, because it was kinda intimidating. Batman Rebirth was the first comic I have ever read and I absolutely love it. Since then I have read several Batman comics from the 90-00s and looked into almost all the other Rebirth series. Seriously I can't believe that I never tried to read comic before that, but maybe it was Rebirth itself that kinda got me in the first place, so yeah, DC did probably everything right, when they started Rebirth, because now they have a new hardcore reader.

Marvel fanboy here: Marvel is relying on attention grabbing, troll-heavy, gimmicks while DC is going back to what made it great. Marvel is continually alienating it's loyal fan base in order to appease some sort of political agenda. And I am saying this as a Black man. marvel has been terrible since Original Sin. It all started the moment Nick Fury depowered Thor with a phrase that TO THIS VERY FUCKING DAY, readers have no idea what was said. Any Marvel fan will tell you since that event, Marvel has changed on a fundamental level. Instead of making stories for the fans, they are making stories that try to get high scores by reviewers. It's tiring and sad. DC Rebirth is the most fun I've had with comics in awhile

I'm a fan of Marvel & DC. I grew up on DC shows, be it Batman '66 or Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman or Super Friends, but I tended to gravitate towards Marvel shows in the 90's because it wasn't something I was used to. To me, the MCU is what DC already had when I was growing up. Which is depth, consequences, and a connection to the characters and the world that they live in. Marvel fans who got into it because of the MCU often don't know DC's cinematic history and tend to judge it based on the last few movies. Which is sad given that DC has 4 shows on the CW that are rather good while Marvel has some real quality issues with their 4 shows. DC's core characters are evergreen as far as fictional characters go. They're well on their way to being a century old and yet their stories are still relevant today. Marvel's characters are very much a product of the era that they were created in and that has led to some problems. Yes, Fox owns the rights to the Fantastic Four and that is a big reason why they have been removed from the comic book landscape. But they are also an old team whose significant acts have largely taken place in brandwide meta-events. The X-Men are a bit better at changing with the times but I feel like the weight of 90's nostalgia has stalled progress for many of the main characters. DC's secrets to success are simplicity in character origins, focusing more on events in individual books rather than meta-events, and actually caring if readers can follow the story or not.

Marvel's ANAD crap has really disappointed me as a new comic reader.

However, with continuing slump in sales, they WILL have their own "Re-Birth"

They age very well not only with the viewer but also with the times. X-Men, however, does not age so well. I still enjoy it, but nostalgia is what helps me enjoy it mostly.

The Death of Superman was my first comic book and when I walked in to the store on one of those few months, I did decide to see what Superman was up to. It was like opening the book to find out a friend was alright, and then they started webbing the DC world together, pushing me into all these other stories just to see how /everyone/ is. It's no longer a comic book about this character or that team, but now it's how those concepts and ideas relate to the superheroic world as a whole.

I knew who Batman and Superman were but not much else. It was my turn to pick a name off a list but the coach said "Oh, your dad already picked yours." My dad ran track and cross country, and I always knew he was a Batman fan. I asked him who he picked, and I guess the coach told the parents beforehand because he pulled out a Flash comic book. After that the Flash name stuck to me until he passed away. But after that moment, I've never stopped loving comic books. Thank you Rob for these and thank you dad for bringing me into comics.

I will always remember getting my very first Comics which where Batman: Court Of Owls & City Of Owls.

@tdtellem7 жыл бұрын
Yeah I agree. Plus he was just different enough to be interesting but still classic enough that I didn't feel lost with him. I accepted the fact that he was what Superman would've been like in today's world. Maybe not as shiny as the classic versions but no less heroic.

That's fine, man. It's cool to like what you like. For example, I know a few people who like Electric Blue Superman, and for all the crap he takes, there is a pretty cool premise behind it.

+tdtellem As someone that is fan of Post-Crisis Superman (mostly because i think that he is the perfect combination beetween the Golden and Silver Age elements of the charather) and never feel strongly about New 52 Superman either way (didn't love it or hate it), i think than his problem was mostly inconsisten charaterization, some times writers try to play the angle of younger and troubled man, other try to make him more similar to his Post Crisis version (mainly Johns and Greg Pak) and basically suffer for a lack of direction in the first 2 years. to the point when he was starting to be more similar to the version than people love, they just didn't care to much about him anymore, then the "Truth" storyarc and ther return of the classic version that people miss, kind of sealed his fate.

It's funny, I barely read DC comics, but yet I feel so happy and satisfied with their Rebirth and the few things I try to keep up with. It brought hope and enjoyment, I felt that same thing for All New All Different Marvel...but then Civil War 2 began and I'm just waiting for NOW. Man I just like entertainment when it comes to Marvel and DC, it just so happens that I grew up with Marvel more, it would be a different story if the day I was at the library and I picked up maybe a Green Lantern comic rather than the Runaways and Spider-Man.

Yeah, CW2 is kinda of a downer, not what I was hoping for either, like it's making my fun series less fun. Thank DC for Rebirth! Not a huge comic reader either but am really loving everything DC Rebirth atm.

What Rob said is the exact reason the DC films are garbage. Superman kills Zod? Really? That's not my Superman. I don't know who Batman is either. What is great about both of them is that they don't KILL. At their core, Superman and Batman are very alike and we have seen this over the years. DC needs a rebirth with their movies. I prefer marvel than DC, but whatever direction marvel is going isn't a good one. GJ is the man and that is why DC is hitting the mark right now.

The reason they're killing is because they are being portrayed as their 40s counterparts and they will later evolve into their modern selves, just give it time

What got me into comics was the 1991 Impel Cards. I was a High School Freshman back then. I could only buy the poorly printed bootleg cards, because I couldn't afford the legit ones and on one in my area was selling legit Marvel Impel cards. Some of my classmates and friends got into comics with my collection cards. During class hours when time was slow, they would pass around the cards and read in information on the back of the cards. Some even started drawing the Marvel Characters.

I got into comics through my father. He was into collectables of many kinds and having nothing to do with the "comics boom" he had tons of comics(including western, sci-fi, and even romance titles) going all the way back to the 60s. He used to tell me when he found out my mother was having a boy he ran out and started buying all the current Superman titles for me. Growing up he would surprise me every few weeks with a small bundle of issues, I had every issue of all 4 titles of Superman(action, adventure, Superman and MoS) from 84 up til I stopped buying them myself in 97 during the whole electric blue/red bs. I actually taught myself how to read on those comics at the age of 3. I also collected a handful of Marvel titles as well(a few Spiderman, Peter Parker was my favorite title. Cap, X-Men FF and some others). And to DEFINITIVELY answer your question Rob, it's Batman TAS hands down because the level of seriousness and legitimate drama it was so full of. Not to mention that now iconic art deco, modern/classic style of Bruce Tim. That show changed a whole industry and the way the company would handle animation forever. X-Men was brilliant, and made excellent use of canon stories to adapt for the average kid without a clue, and Spiderman TAS was great as well, but neither could have pulled off a prime time premier and be held as serious dramatic viewing.

Amazing job, keep the great work. Peace :)

In 1992 when my family was coming back from a vacation and I begged my mom to have me watch the Batman animated series in a motel room we where renting. Then the fist comic book series I bought was Batman Knights End. X-men was cool too. I need to get back into comics man.

We gravitate more towards Marvel vs DC, but if the script got flipped, it could easily be DC vs Marvel. Great video, Rob

there's also the third kind of comic book readers: people like me, who don't read comics at all, but are still genuinly intrested in comic book characters and stories. I grew up watching comic book cartoons and movies. Yeah, every once in a while I somehow got a hold on some comic book, but I never bought them, I was always borrowed or given a comic book. Now, I'm almost 30 and still don't read comics, but I follow channels like yours and I love listening to stories, analysis etc. from comic book realm. Well... maybe that don't make me a "reader" but I sure do feel to be a part of comic book fans community! Cheers!

I was introduced to Comic books by my cousin, Tito. Every week he'll go to the comic book store and bring this comics and show them to me. I was fascinated by this. Then he was collecting trading cards from comic book characters and they were so cool. I no longer wanted to collect sports trading cards. I Just wanted to collect comic books and superhero trading cards. And to this day I still love this. I love comic books and the movies are doing so well now! Is a dream come true 😁
