[@therambler7941]

He is so happy for showing us his collection, just look at his smile in the begining, he's just so proud it makes me happy to see him like that

[@Donny_Grande]

I want an Ephemeral rift action figure series

[@ReallyTwistedHumor]

Would you make them all distinct characters or just Ephemeral Rift in different costumes like Action Men were?

[@WuntaykTimmy1]

I would love that and maybe a ephermal rift movie universe.

[@ReallyTwistedHumor]

Idris Isse Or a HBO series, give it to the people who make Game Of Thrones, a movie is only 2 hours or so, you wouldn't feasibly be able to get the lore in

[@WuntaykTimmy1]

+Really Twisted Humor Unless they Make it like a marvel universe you know with like corvus and Margaret having solo movies. And a TV show would be awsome 2.

[@ReallyTwistedHumor]

Idris Isse And now the important question... who plays who? Because to me Christoph Waltz is the perfect choice for Corvus

[@zeldamaster52]

On the topic of comics, I think you'd be fantastic for a Dr. Hugo Strange roleplay.

[@jakobs3665]

Agreed

[@TheManOfRash]

Commissioner Gordon!

[@KGUNGamingGAMES]

i agree with timmy

[@robnickerson7819]

Oh yeah haha he's got the beard goin and the glasses ha

[@zeldamaster52]

Rob Nickerson He just needs a bald cap and it'd be perfect.

[@dregandye1876]

1:36 when I saw that scene I immediately was like "wtf, THAT'S MY SHIRT" Yes, I was legit wearing that shirt

[@germanschurman]

Crazy how kids don’t even play with toys really anymore, I’m only 16 but I remember playing for hours with star wars action figures, bionicles, and spaceships. Nowadays young kids just stare at an iPad for the whole day, it’s sad.

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

I started collecting comics for fun in the 90s. I'm pretty sure they're all worth nothing, but I'm really happy I got the chance to enjoy that feeling of carrying a new issue in your backpack, going home, and carefully reading through the story and getting immersed into that world. I didn't grow up with comics or many videogames, so it was very foreign to me. I still have the comic books in storage.

[@fredeskridge22]

My favorite asmr video ever. Hands down I’ve been watching it almost every night for 3 years lol

[@Doublespeaking]

One of my favorite ER videos. If you have other collectibles, I hope you'll do more of these! It feels like I'm sitting in a friend's room late at night helping them pack/unpack, listening to them ramble about their nerd stuff. Anyways, it makes me fall right asleep!

[@xINVISIGOTHx]

OMG YESSSSS!!!!!! I LOVE ACTION FIGURES!!!!!!

[@V3n0m._.29]

am I the only person that recognized you lol! I used to watch your videos all the time when I was a kid!

[@newfoundbland]

@@V3n0m._.29 haha same

[@jennifergame7973]

I love when you do vids like this, your whisper voice is great and calming,and I love the creativity with the sound, who knew I could get tingles from action figures. I'm not even really a big comic person but I love hearing you talk about them, interesting, informative and relaxing, I love it thanks.

[@sethman0]

That Batman and Robin comic at 50:48 is Dick Grayson as Batman and Damian Wayne, Bruce's son, as Robin. If you haven't found out or been told by now.

[@SrBananas]

He probably just got a little confused. Since Jason as the Red Hood is sprinkled through the story quite a lot, and has no problem talking junk to Dick and Damian.

[@sethman0]

Yeah, I can understand that, but I figured I could point it out just in case.

[@MagWasTaken]

As someone who plays video games for both KZbin and fun constantly and likes all this comic stuff, an ASMR nerd out is like heaven for me.

[@cbhg2199]

I doubt rift will see this but I would love some updated comic book videos.

[@jayhollows5729]

I don't really collect action figures or comics myself but I admire listening to Rift talk about what he loves and his hobbies. Even though we may not know about who he truly is as a person, I like taking small glimpses into the world of Ephemeral Rift.

[@nickcabrera3087]

Trigon is a demon and father of Team Titan member Raven :)

[@nickcabrera3087]

Also deadshot is the leader of the Suicide Squad. :)))

[@nickcabrera3087]

+Nick Cabrera And it's Black Manta (lol I'm getting annoying Ik)

[@InterfaceYT]

teen titan, not team :P

[@AeonsOfBlight]

Trigon was a beast in Justice League VS Teen Titans

[@nickcabrera3087]

+Seth & Tres lol typo thx

[@pokemaster123ism]

I can’t believe he called Storm Shadow SnowStorm.

[@ssgsorrels]

for those curious as to the characters the action figures are modeled off of that ER wasn't as familiar with: specter-literaly the embodiment of God's wrath and the spirit of judgement and justice. he is basically all powerful booster gold- hero from the future who steals a legion of super hero flight ring and a super suit and goes back in time to our time and becomes a corporate sponsored super hero until he has a change of heart. old blue beetle- ted kord, tech genius and owner of kord industries (basically a dorky bruce wayne) metal men-doesn't matter, they are kinda lame. hawkgirl-either a thanagarian alien police officer with a mace made of nth metal/ a reincarnation of a egyptian princess trigon- basically the devil, all powerful, and father of Raven from the teen titans via a human woman sacrifice/lover cheetah- barbera minerva, a explorer who ends up becoming the living embodiment of an ancient cat god within her, and turning into a super strong and fast cat person. due to a botched ceremony however, she is driven mad and in constant pain. ultra humanite- honestly even I don't know obsidian- son of golden age green lantern Alan scott and villian thorn. can create shadow constructs and has super strength and flight. Darkseid- one of DC's strongest villians. ruler of planet Apokalips, commander of a vast army, despot, and also commands the female furies which include classic characters like big barda. he has immeasurable super strength, speed, invulnerability, flight, can fire omega beams from his eyes (think superman's heat vision but homing and twenty times stronger) and is a genius.

[@WuntaykTimmy1]

I very much like and appreciate this comment. Funnily enough since this video hawkgirl has become one of my favorite hero's 👍🏿

[@ReallyTwistedHumor]

Hey Rift, have you seen the DC animated movie "Under the Red Hood"?

[@evathegrand]

1:15 thought you were gonna say "leeeeeets get riiiiight INTOTHENEWSSS"

[@scragthesecond5405]

LET'S GET ROIIIGHHHTTT INTO THE NOOOOSEEEEE

[@RealDerekDean]

+Mr B lettttsss tighteennnnn uppppp this noooose

[@noobhooligan6421]

Keem is done. I think...

[@eltraviesoxiii5190]

+Mr B love it hahahaha

[@evathegrand]

Noob Hooligan he has a new channel called "the new show"

[@nightwing1752]

How Could You Not Take Nightwing's Comic Out Of Packaging??

[@carlosblohm1022]

THIS IS THE GREATEST CHANNEL OF ALL TIME!!! Thank you Uncle E! There was not one thing that was any less than awesome in this video! Please do more of these!

[@austinhicks1365]

For someone who says he dropped the whole comic thing, you have an amazing comic collection!!

[@RueRyuzakiIsBB]

Gold and Iron (16:14) are, from what I can tell, relatively obscure and not well known. They're members of the Metal Men out of a comic called Showcase (#37) from 1962. Other than that and having been in a cartoon once or twice, I haven't seen much about them.

[@andrewestes4999]

I have forced my way into the algorithm for all your old videos Cheers again 🥃

[@EphemeralRift]

😂👍

[@yehmec]

Right in time when I wanted to see a new video from you Uncle E!

[@FourTwenT]

*on

[@yehmec]

+the DESIRES Thanks for the correction,English is not my mother tongue ^^

[@dannywilson9338]

+yehmec Your english is still very good

[@yehmec]

+Danny Wilson Thanks I always loved to study English ^^

[@patrickdodds8088]

Fuck off.

[@MathyuB.W.89]

I like how The Question is skulking around in the background at the beginning

[@Lizewski213]

Booster gold is my fav dc hero besides jonah hex and wild dog

[@davinodf]

Thank you for the trip down memory lane as your childhood paralleled mine. I too grew up in the 1970's and 80's had Star Wars figures, Atari 2600, collecting comics, etc. Thanks for the video.

[@BlackFur988]

My dad is a huge guy on all of the 70's figures you were talking about. Younger when I use to live with him and stuff, he had the Star Wars figures in the boxes, they'd have Darth mauls face in the upper left corner, scare the crap out of me. Lol. I don't remember much of He-Man stuff, but he was huge on that as well as the transformers and Voltron. The G.I.Joe figures, he has a whole box in the closet. It's filled to the brim. Great video man, love this nerd stuff. The Question for the win! Wish I had a figure of him. :P

[@bachirimiro]

my type of asmr, my first videos of yourś was the comic book collection videos. Glad to see those types of videos return. much love.

[@ASMRLore]

So much NERD LORE :D

[@MegaCrazyTyler]

ikr Goodbye to my next hour.

[@youngsinatra1]

I love it

[@sarahbojangles1]

So MUCH hair!

[@chagis100]

Great channel concept! Subbed

[@buldg560]

+sarahbojangles1 yeah I just figured out that his hair style changes every episode to fit the theme

[@SnackCannon]

Your recent content has gotten better than ever. You're finely perfecting the craft, Uncle E.

[@Angelkid190]

My dad would have loved all those action figures and comic books in his younger days.

[@arcxcc]

I'm loving the fallout shirt

[@liamhorton7629]

I couldn't help but chuckle when he said there were all kinds of different colors of Green Lantern. I know what he meant, but the phrasing of the sentence was chuckle-worthy.

[@MegaSteven011]

Best asmr channel ever🙌🏼

[@Bjorn-AFCA]

Amazing thanks for this, still watch the old comic asmr videos every now and then.

[@schleshraz6306]

This was right up my alley. This is my life. NERDS UNITE!

[@8baller10]

I've never subscribed to a male asmrtist but your channel is awesome from the few videos I've seen. Super relaxing. ^_^ You helped calm me down and forget about my worries for a while. Thanks for that. Keep up the great work buddy. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your videos now.

[@GF-ro9oc]

Love how you took care of your old stuff that you grew up with. Most kids now days have lost those values....

[@ethananthony6524]

Rift man you are just to good man, always something new. And the way integrate asmr into honestly great KZbin content.

[@bloof5455]

He looks adorable in this video. That sounds weird but- he really does 😭

[@starbits24]

finally, an ASMRist who appreciates comic book characters as much as I do

[@themajesticnarwhal3273]

Your awesome Rift, I've been collecting Star Wars and Walking Dead figures for a while now

[@FourTwenT]

*you're

[@deborahsalvatore6900]

+the DESIRES dude seriously? Stop correcting everyone and go find a fucking life

[@josephdugdale5878]

+Deborah Salvatore Well said

[@themajesticnarwhal3273]

Yeah I mess that up whenever I stop paying attention

[@QballDoesMC]

+The Magnificent Narwhal are you gonan but the new walking dead negan and glenn set?

[@TappySapJr98]

My little brother found the classic 1960s batmobile, with batman in it. It's up on a shelf in our game room.

[@shanecouzens5149]

Lot of respect for you Uncle E! Great video took me right back to when i was into comics and action figures

[@jackgnithon3434]

As soon as the video transitioned and I saw The Question figure I had the biggest smile on my face.

[@jordynnreiman9000]

I watched a lot of your videos about comic books and it actually refreshed my interest in them! Thank you for that :)

[@arcxcc]

Oh wow. I know what I'm doing for the next hour.

[@mynameisrogue8183]

tfw shadestep is now USELESS

[@davidreames384]

Snowstorm: Stormshadow's none-too-bright younger brother...

[@Szlvage]

I love chew read the whole series, I bought all the volumes afterward, loved to see this in your collection

[@3rdEarthProductions]

Just wanted to pop by comments and say I love your vids, Rift! Cant say enough how much I need these...

[@ahighlife]

nice collection dude! I'm a bit of a comic book nerd myself. something's you just can't grow out of.

[@victoriabarnds8190]

Dude I fangirled so hard this week because I saw you on the new Rooster Teeth trailer for one of their new shows! 😍😍😍

[@vaniamaluendaaliste8973]

In the last Batman and Robin you showed, Damian Wayne is Robin, not Jason Todd (he appears in that comic resurrected as Red Hood)

[@carriox]

He looked so happy in this video, by the time it was over, I was smiling, too :^

[@rumplespliffskin]

Yourself and ASMR Nerd are probably the two best ASMRtists. Not MALE ASMRtists. I mean the best of ALL ASMRtists.

[@kolejackson6542]

Would love too see some more nerdy/D&D stuff coming soon. Thanks for the relaxation Uncle ER

[@Johncarver7777]

Holy!! He's got question!! And booster gold!! That's it. This man is my hero

[@toujourspurbl]

I can't believe my favourite ASMR artist ended up on a RoosterTeeth trailer. Well done, ER! You deserve everything and more for all the work you do for us, good Sir!

[@emc8666]

There's a sparkle in your eyes and you seem excited. I can tell that you are really happy :)

[@josephmama1606]

Up my alley? This IS my alley! Really enjoyed this one!

[@EddyChapps93]

If you want to know about the whole Blue Beetle storyline, the second season of Young Justice explains it very well, also gives a great story about the Justice League and the affiliates

[@yoansaavedra5211]

Don't know if anyone commented this already but the white ninja was Storm Shadow, and I agree that he and Snake Eyes were the coolest.

[@claudiot315]

I have a couple of late 50's Superman comic books... I always wonder if they're worth anything...

[@RaginAsian_]

Dude I love your collection of comic books and action figures.

[@nathenjordan9428]

very cool iconic. collection of comics you got rift. like when bane breaks batmans back and the death jason todd

[@alexbuczala8749]

I'm not sure if the newer batman and Robin was with Jason todd. It looked a lot like Damian Wayne ( the product of when Bruce sleeps with Talia, Raas Al Ghul's daughter,). the mask and costume style looks a lot like damian's and I would be surprised if they made more Jason todd Robin stories because they have the whole red hood and arsenal thing going on now.

[@toppat]

A lil late but you're right! Also if im not mistaken that batman is actually dick grayson

[@nbbear55]

Another great video, ER. My hands are usually too oily/acidic even after washing them thoroughly with soap. I would be terrified to pull the comics out of their sleeves without gloves on!

[@JoseMendoza-ry7mc]

You're the MESSI of ASMR!!!! Meaning your the best in the History of ASMR.

[@marcosbarrera8554]

fuck messi

[@TylerMcShane]

It's like your putting a spell on me emepheral rift. I was watching this video and I start to nod off near the action figure part and I woke my self up and literally blank out and wake up about 10 before the vid ends it's amazing love the vids nd keep em coming

[@TylerMcShane]

+luislopez224 she really wasn't lol

[@turtles6610]

I used to read lots off the "classics" as a kid. I just stick to mostly non-fiction today. Lots of art history and technique booklets as of late...before that it was oriental war manuals. 😂 I had some ironman and Xmen comics, and I play the video games, etc. There was a comic book shop about a block away from the projects in the old neighborhood. As a kid I only had a bunch of G.I. Joe action figures, which my dbag stepdad bought me. I have more anime memorabilia though. I have a huge stack of shonen jump and random manga volumes. And I had a MASSIVE barrel of yugioh cards. With some Pokemon also. LETS NERD OUT!!!

[@marcusanark2541]

Excellent video and awesome collection, the best ASMRist on KZbin!

[@Kangaru13]

I love nerdy stuff he just earned a subscriber

[@gryphon7675]

Yea! ER is a PlayStation guy! We can now be true friends. 🙂

I don't have a playstation unfortunately I have an xbox which is fine I like all teh games on all the consoles

[@willbagnall1646]

Rift please do another ear to ear whispering video, your close up voice is the only thing in this world that gives me tingles haha - much love

[@terria8825]

Did anything spark your interest at e3 this year?

[@RoundSeal]

This was great 💚 I've been getting into comics lately, surely but steadily, and this gave me a few neat things to look into. Definitely looking forward to part 2.

[@g.h.christofascist5303]

Good to see that you're a comic book fan!

[@jessvolina6007]

Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes...and Stalker plays a role with those 2 there is an Arashikage.Wilkinson LRRP 3 pack set back in the VvV era

[@Ken-es6mk]

That comic about mice sounds extremely similar to the Redwall book series. If you liked that comic you should check out the Redwall books ER!

[@MutenRoscher]

is this darkseid with the infintiy glove? so it really IS darkseid with the infinity gauntlet* (my bad) this happened in a JLA Avengers crossover.

[@lyonharted31]

Hey Uncle E! I finally started reading Lovecraft, and "Herbert West - Reanimator", the story about the doctor who attempted to reanimate the dead, sounds like a prime opportunity for ASMR; we (the viewer) could be a body just brought in from the graveyard. The first part could be the preparation and injection of the reviving serum, and then it turns out that, understandably so, the freshly reanimated viewer needs to be calmed down after their jarring return to the world of the living. I know you've done some videos directly inspired by Lovecraft stories, so I thought I'd toss that suggestion out there. Keep doing what you do; it's nothing short of amazing.

[@KB-vk7cd]

I love the topic of this video. I've been collecting many different action figures and comic books since I was a young girl. :)

[@raincityreader1281]

Loved these "Let's Nerd Out" videos! Thanks E.R.

[@NefariousDreary]

I love the sounds of the toys.

[@briankerr6543]

Born in 72, I know exactly what your talking about. Great time for action figures!

[@Triumph2024.]

My super power is dozing off to asmr in a single nod.

[@banzokazoobie788]

Ultimate feel of nostalgia right now.

[@brendanjames3335]

white ninja was storm shadow btw

[@EazyFits01]

the white ninja in G.I Joe is called storm shadow fyi haha

[@ArcosOfBlack]

Maybe someone has said this already, in which case go right on ahead and ignore this comment, but the whit ninja is actually called "Storm Shadow", and not "Snow Storm"

[@agochoa]

I’m super jelly of that DC classics Joker.

[@justenditall6367]

What kind of Comic Bags and Backing Board do you use? I used Ultimate Guard, but I just wanted to know which one you use! Anyway Nice Video love your Collection

[@EphemeralRift]

Thanks but I no longer collect. I just used whatever boards and bags the local shop had.. nothing too pricey. :)

[@justenditall6367]

Oh ok thanks !

[@monsieurx9381]

I love your videos, more and more with the time cause I see that you enjoy what you do and that's very cool!

[@niklasholmstedt3650]

Somewhere, a comic book collector is crying over the way you handle these comicbooks...

[@ermahgerd5404]

Ahhh but heres the question. Can the cyborg half keep up with supermans extra terrestrial strength? Or is superman in fact weaker than the cyborg side

[@Tube_Chaser]

Does anyone know what the nineth game, from top to bottom, on the right stack is? It's a PS4 game published by EA, thats as much I can tell

[@Kill0rGurke]

Looks like Starwars Battlefront
