Old Man Logan's Origin Revealed!

[@elseworldmedia9482]

That whole moment with Rob getting hyped about Old Man Logan killing the Hulk family is still one of the best CE moments for me.

[@InstantSilence]

A small but important detail you didn't mention was that he actually couldn't change past events. He could change tiny details, like who he talks to and what he says, but every major action in his past was set in stone. He tried to chase after Jean but his body wouldn't move, and when he was confronted by the Hulk gang, he wanted to act but he still got beat up. It was then that he realized that his past is his past, and rather than watching his family die a second time, he decided to have a proper goodbye.

[@michaelandable]

yeah but what about Banner Jr. people!?!?

[@brooklynanon2141]

One thing that I didn't get was, if it was all of his past - how did the interaction with Iceman help with his rescue? If it was his own past, then he was talking to the Iceman of old man logan-verse and not the ANAD version. Unless in that one instance, he crossed over to the other iteration's wolverine. I haven't read it, maybe I missed it completely...

[@RozzCraft]

All timelines are the same until they diverge. ANAD and Old Man diverge on the night Logan kills the X-Men. He altered both paths by talking to Bobby before the night the heroes died.

[@9manny99]

Time Travel bud!!!!!

[@taylorkurtz1513]

but if they were the same wolverine until the night the superheroes died then there's no way Old man logan could have fought in the war of 1812, they hadn't been born yet

[@xxX2damanxx]

As an avid comics fan who can't afford to keep up with all things concerning Marvel, I want to thank you for doing these videos, Rob! Keep up the good work man!

[@juniorgildas9822]

xxX2damanxx there are some sites where you can read them free

[@DatAznGamer]

Junior Gildas ooooo I wanna know this website cuz i seriously need to catch up

[@treytucker9948]

the only one i know of is kisscomics.

[@elijahmatthews2781]

+MASTERCHEIF1229 Thank you for the heads up.

[@TheMegops81]

This was awesome! Thanks for explaining all of this. I'm glad Logan found peace. I still miss earth-616 Wolverine though. He certainly will never be forgotten.

[@michaelscoggins2710]

Rob I agree with you. Logan taking out the Banner family was the coolest thing ever.

[@7StringBlazer]

Lmao 21:55 that abrupt gear change though. I love how hype you get talking about the material

[@TheSylveonSurfer]

Being honest. You're my source of comic book info. I can't for life of imagine trying to actually read through the literally hundreds of different issues and stories at this point in my life. So these videos that you do provide a ton of entertainment value by being able to indirectly learn about of these various arcs and stories. That being said, one of the things that keeps me coming back, your genuine love of comics. I don't see alot people get genuinely excited about hings anymore what with everyone having everything at their fingertips. Your little excitement about Logan's slaughter of the Banner family is one of the many moments where I've seen your love for the platform really shine. That's what I like about you. You still find a ton of enjoyment in the medium. In my own community, that being anime, I see people kinda just settle into this... Rut? Where they'll watch things and like them, and discuss them but have kinda become desensitised to the medium. I was one of those people until recently. I watched one of the long anime from a genre known as "Shounen" that kinda re-ignited my love for anime. I was actually getting excited about the things happening in the story, getting sad or angry when bad things happened, andjust generally having a good time. I'll tell you what. These videos bring me more enjoyment than alot of things these days. So, thank you... Really, thank you. =)

[@cmndrleon4369]

Rob, I LOVED your description of the Old Man Logan story before "All New All Different". I do want to read it now more than ever. "There was some CHURCH GOIN ON!!!"... Beautiful.

[@h4ppy99]

Sooooo.... they never figure out what happened to baby Banner? Wasn't that the point of going back to the wasteland?

[@CornBreadtm1]

He couldn't. Asmodeus tricked him. He could only see parts of his own life and live them out. He left Banner Jr. so he has no memory of what happens to him to live.

[@clintmack3286]

Thank you!, this run needed some serious Robsplaining, the new run with Maestro looks awesome!

[@CroMagArmy]

Rob, when you said that Logan wreaking havoc on the Banner Clan was the coolest thing you've ever seen... ...it was also the coolest thing I'VE ever seen.

[@kuraiden8586]

Nice video! But there is a thing you didnt mention. Logan couldnt prevent the deaths in like you cant change the past trope. He knew what is going to happen but he cant prevent it.

[@Midnightv]

you become a wendigo when you eat another human if you're up there in the North winter

[@fcon8507]

PLEASE tell me you you've seen the movie "Ravenous." To me Robert Carlyle will always be the wendigo. "It's lonely being a cannibal...tough making friends."

[@rclru]

Easily one my favorite comic book stories, rivaling the Dark Knight Returns. Didn't get a chance to read the follow up to Old Man Logan and other books, but your videos sure helped a lot. Keep up the good work Rob!

[@moonbeen2952]

Clearly, this is the best thing coming out of DC Rebirth. EDIT: Wow! Over 100 likes!

[@cheeseburgerfreddy6350]

Moonbeen29 Lol

[@batprime9560]

I prefer dc rebirth after countless times jean grey came back from dead and died how times I lost count on

[@redhood8280]

LegionBBX it was joke

[@polilla318]

-All you're gonna do is get yourself killed! -Oh yeah? Well they killed me fifty years ago, bub... And I got better.

[@jamel7781]

"some guy named Romulus?!?" man quit playing! he's important enough to warrant hard bound copies!

[@QuickRipsforBlackLotus]

One of my favorite videos in a LONG time! It has one of the only superhero endings that I thought was both satisfying and interesting. Loved it ComicsExplained!

[@bull40692]

i cant afford to drop money on comics anymore. ever since i habe subscribed to your channel i feel like i can really get back into the stories thru your brilliant explanations. thank you so much for that. it really brings me back to my childhood and loving super heroes again. you sir are my super hero. thank you!

[@taariqtucker8910]

so you're telling me that this all started with him trying to stop baby hulk from becoming a tyrant and then never brings him up again?

[@DevilmanEnvoy]

Baby hulk becoming a tyrant is his nightmare, Baby Hulk becomes a super hero before secret wars is what actually happens.

[@taariqtucker8910]

Nyte Shay ok and this is what I thought but his goal was to seek out baby and prevent said nightmare and then never does it, I'm just confused as to the loose plot threads in this particular story

[@LgiovanniF]

no this all started the night he killed the xmen

[@kaminsod4077]

I'm not sure why they killed off Wolverine but then immediately put old man logan in the main universe.

[@blazedyasa]

dagonthewise iii Marvel ran out of ideas and decided to retell the same storiesvbut with a fresh gloss of paint

[@CornBreadtm1]

Well since we already know where he ends up as (an old man logan) it's better to skip to that part. Plus it's cool to see Gabby call him Grandpa in Wolverine comics lol

[@NotAGrabbaghoul]

dagonthewise iii *He went out like a badass and Marvel heavily stressed that he was gone, but then they had the Logan movie coming so they added him back as OML alongside the successor Wolverine. I personally like OML more, he reminds me of Ezio from Assassin's Creed Revelations*

[@dbears1603]

CornBreadtm old man Logan and 616 Logan arent from the same universe0

[@NeonPLotus]

My problem with the admantium poisoning concept is that wolverines real power, besides his healing factor, is adaptability. Technically his physiology with have adapted the admantium as part of him, which is why when even one drop of blood of him is left, he can reform back to himself, including the admantium which is essentially become his skeleton. It's the same as him processing poison out of his system. The admantium poisoning NEVER made sense.

[@r_o_y3419]

Neon P Lotus He's never been shown coming back from one drip of blood except from the time in civil war where it showed him coming back from a skeleton.

[@NeonPLotus]

Roy Latham Wrong Phoenix saga, I believe A drop of his blood landed on the dream crystal, and BAM! Another wolverine, dame as the old wolverine.

[@iamcage187]

Neon P Lotus pretty sure that was because of the crystal, Not him. He can't reform his adamantium, that why it never grew back after Magneto ripped it out, it had to be put back into him by outside forces.

[@antwan1357]

Actually using that line of logic would suggest that wolverines healing factor would break down the adamantium and purge it eventually from his body.

[@refusetolose05]

Its actually genetics. Your DNA over time loses its telomeres length, causing aging. After 150+ years he is only reproducing DNA that has errors, which is why the adamantium that was always poisoning him is now killing him.

[@JanuaryCorso]

Hats off to Lemire, honestly and dearly. Such an amazing writer who found brilliant and introspective ways to end both Moon Knight and Old Man Logan, two phenomenal comics, with a note of finality, but an air of anticipation for whats next. He closed the chapter but left the path so naturally open for the next writer. I can only hope the new Old Man Logan writer is doing their best to live up to his amazing run, and Im already sensing my impatience for a new Moon Knight comic. Thank you Jeff.

[@theaveragecasual9971]

Loved this story, thank you for covering it Rob

[@OriginalPai]

I've never been a wolverine fan, especially not Old Man Logan, but it's cool just to see someone talk about something they like and at the end of the day, if it gets more people into comics, I'm all for it.

[@kylemagaro6979]

Did not know black panther could manipulate time. That's really cool, didn't realize Wakanda is THAT advanced.

[@michaeldougherty6036]

They aren't, but someday they will be. So they came back and gave the tech to the current time because time travel is the ULTIMATE MCGUFFIN!!

[@chrishunjackson8317]

"And he unleased HOLY HELL", best ending summary ever.

[@ericboone6748]

Respectfully, if I may, the one thing majorly missed was that Madripoor and the whole assassin for hire was during fall of the mutants when the X-Men were thought dead, Mariko's death happened in the 90's where as fall of the mutants took place in the late 80's.

[@freydawg56]

Great story telling as always Rob !

[@chrisdryer]

The length of time Puck was on the screen warrants a Puck origins video, or at least a How to Un-alive Puck.

[@davidminter4304]

In many videos I've seen there will be FantomX references. Im generally familiar with older Xmen stories but have no clue about this guy. cant find any video on him. Any chance of getting a video?

[@retro_mutant_toybox]

love this!! I need to start reading old man logan now for sure!!!

[@sabata2]

Didn't this get uploaded a while ago? I remember CE going over the agreement with that Asmodeus guy.

[@reeceadolph4986]

Rob have you watched the 90s spider man cartoon and if you haven't WATCH IT. ITS AMAZING

[@Numbr1beast]

It is. Spiderman the Animated Series (1994). BEST, hands down.

[@lisquidsnake]

Ya boi Dope it was definitely good for its time but they wouldn't let him throw any punches. there's some awkward wrestling at times

[@redshepherd32]

eh as far as story, voices, and characters go, yeah I love the 90's animated series. Animation wise............ has not aged very well and is very lazy at times

[@ravager48]

Yeah. Pissed me off they cancelled it in season 5. The last episode was bittersweet.

[@niallreid7664]

Ehhhh it’s alright. I never found it to be that great, even when it was originally airing. As for the best show, I would say that goes to Spectacular. Hands down.

[@loganmohr278]

awesome video man. love the old man Logan stories and the way you tell them. keep up the good work

[@Yeepride987]

Old Man Mother Fuckin' Logan

[@TuyenNguyen-gm2et]

Yeepride987 CmonBruh

[@PrJalapeno]

thank you for doing this video. i love the old man logan series but haven't had time to reaf it. your videos provide me with so much info to use in conversations eith friends.

[@r_o_y3419]

It's funny that you bring up The Nexus from Generations because i was just watching you talk about the white hot room in the Thor video. They both seem very similar.

[@mitchcowan1446]

I feel the real question is actually will they ever make old man Logan young again. This was a great revitalization of the character after quite a bit of over exposure for a good two decades, but it is Logan and he is the True Wolverine. No matter how you feel about X-23 taking up the mantle, its always going to be Logans. They did this with Capt America so could be it happens with our lovable ole Wolvie....eventually ;)

[@soda989]

Your channel is legend. Thank you, for everything... *thank you*

[@brock2460]

Finally Old Man Logan content! Lemme tell ya somethin' man!

[@DuendeTortuga]

Such an awesome character

[@lostmyslippas808]

bro you literally on my computer playing all day...love your channel ..

[@jus6276]

You make me wish I had time to read comic books again. Awesome summary of one of my fav. characters.

[@oscargomezrivera]

I love your videos, they make my day at work more tolerable

[@LordSpacePig]

Why are the soldiers in 1812 using bolt action rifles when the British used flintlock rifles in 1812?

[@demonteprice5870]

Davy Jones because the artist failed History class in High School

[@MrB00mbang]

That panel is so silly lol. It is more likely that they would have been referred to by the Americans as "the British," not "Canadians."

[@MrJoeylj]

Good catch

[@LgiovanniF]

because shut up

[@samuelsmith5400]

That bothers me to lol

[@christophersizemore2711]

Damn Rob great video! I dropped this book but may need to pick it back up. Keep up the good work.

[@TheDRexor]

Would it ok if you put the timestamp of the new material in the video description? That way we could skip the recap

[@bertsan5604]

This was amazing Rob

[@damiancampbell9492]

I've been wondering why neither of Old Man Logan's Kids have a healing factor. All his previous kids have claws and a healing factor, why did those kids get left out?

[@niallreid7664]

Because mutants died out. It comes up in the comic when Wolverine was talking to Emma Frost. There hasn’t been a new mutant born in decades, and Logan’s kids therefore would have been born without the X gene.

[@dbears1603]

Not all of Logan's kids have his powers

[@elfeo1js]

This is what happens when you're dealing with a basic b!tch.

[@RoyalBack]

Ok wait, so old man logan is a different person than wolverine?? I always thought he is wolverine in the future, im confused

[@elfeo1js]

I thought he said he is from a different time line. But many Wolverine events are the same but the death of the super heroes was the ultimate difference. He also said he was born a hundred years earlier

[@BlackGameBang]

The end off the vid had me dying lol good vid

[@XimGama]

Loving Old Man Logan more with each volume of his run!

[@YTHandlesBlow]

Haha weapon X to me always makes me think of Wolverine and Liger Zero from Zoids New Century.

[@walkerdrae]

good story. always looking forward to your work man. thank you

[@Zarreth]

When you got to the logan-hulks fight, the nerdgasm was hilarious lol. Like when I explained Gantz: O to my buddy lol.

[@SaydeDoesDnD]

Rob, I'm sure you read the latest issue? What do you think of Deodato's extremely stocky Wolverine?

[@neji360Airstrike]

Rob losing his shit over Wolerine finding his dead family is the greatest thing I may have ever experienced... I am not *horrible* sad, but enough so.

[@twinjuice17]

look regardless jean is not loyal.. Emma was and Cyclops had some of the baddess mutants in the game... goblin queen, dazzler, jean, emma... straight mack

[@gctdonyre]

#24 got me all choked up in feels.

Rob when are u going to cover venom issue 150

[@jasonelswick8329]

you are very entertaining,keep it up

[@dermetzger]

One of THE most satisfying splash panels I've ever seen was that two page giant "Snikt!" after Old man Logan finds his family dead...

[@ghazzter]

One of the best comic reading videos on TY, however, Wolverine Origins is an amazing series and I'm sad to see them try to rid themselves of it.

[@joestokes59]

Thanks for making great videos

[@jessejamison9516]

Rob, you forgot to mention that the scene with Hulk and Wendigo is from Wolverine's first appearance ever in a comic. Increadible Hulk issue # 181.

[@TheSilverstang66]

Rob are u gonna Cover all of Red Hulk along with Red Hood and Arsenal?

[@rickquick8977]

Rob, can give more explanation into the war of 1812 thing? how was he fighting in a war before he was born?

[@Rysdan9]

Best thing coming out of DC rebirth!

[@Rysdan9]

MG16ncpGB grant Do you not understand the joke? Before commenting and calling other people idiots, you should really understand the context. It is a joke that stems from Rob's comments and statements when explaining new DC rebirth content "it's the best thing coming out of DC rebirth."

[@damienlee54]

Rysdan9 exactly.

[@Rysdan9]

MG16ncpGB grant It's clearly obvious that Wolverine is a Marvel character, but how am I a spammer? Also, do you still not understand the joke?

[@victor6620]

*Bad-um-tchh*

[@knephsabir3245]

Rysdan9 lol

[@Skyfather_Fitness]

I was going through old videos and I really think you should bring back the old intro.

[@sinzarh]

i would cry if i was forced to see the logan movie again, never have i ever seen such an amazing character die in such an emotional way

[@mr.kidchaos2477]

i was waiting for a, "lemme tell you sumptin!!" 🤣🤣🤣

[@nathanferguson4170]

Rob is a joker, those lyrics he spit "there was some church going on" that mad me laugh hard. Good job Rob.

[@Zonks666]

was there any mention of maverick and sabertooth in OML? or is that part of his hx just assumed to have occurred?

[@MrWolfJack]

Rob, if you want another great example of trapped in a perfect memory check out Superman Annual Vol 1 #11.

[@AdemNBTR]

I just got done watching Clone Saga video and now this? A good monday with more content to see.

[@MihkelKukk]

Same

[@davidsirmons]

Oh my God! This is CRAZY!!! I REMEMBER so many of these actual stories from WHEN THEY ORIGINALLY CAME OUT IN THE 80'S!!! :D :D :D

[@danielkoutroupis]

Great story telling 😎😉

all I can say is thank you for this videos

[@peppeau]

amazing video!

[@Palumbo06]

so im a big thor fan.. something despite reading a bunch i dont fully under stand is Donald blake.. u should make a vid about his exsistance .. btw love the channel

[@TerasXertas]

That panel where Logan says good bye to his family had me choking up. Dem feels

[@DavarNavi]

great work bro

[@jiryensaber6090]

Old Man Logan. Certainly the best thing coming out of the Hulk from the original.

[@larryfenderson8922]

616 Logan was born in the 1880's. 616 Wolverines early exploits that took place seemingly before his birth was answered in two ways one by he himself going through time and two his robotic doppelganger Albert (one half of Albert and Elsie Dee ) was the culprit in some of these early adventures.

[@robinburt5735]

Awesome video. Did i notice his wife was called Maureen? That's the same name as my mum!

[@evanabbott2737]

The old man Logan series was like, one of the coolest comics I've ever read in my life.😁👍👍👍👍👍

[@Midnightv]

I liked it it's finally clear that he's not the same 616 Wolverine at least but that is interesting him being 100 years older 1777 vs 1877

[@TerlieJean]

Song at the end? I feel like I recognize it from somewhere

[@fifa1800]

What is the song at 16:30??

[@calvinchaos8636]

Great video

[@dwandeveaux1156]

That was a really beautiful story. Gotta pick it up one day

[@tomsklanka4896]

Old man Logan was kick ass, Hopefully the new Wolverine solo series book in February 2020 will be good

[@thunderfister7536]

ive read the original old man logan book (the one before secret wars) and I wanted to know if the all new all different old man logan was worth reading?
