Onslaught kills the Marvel Universe

The Onslaught story arc began at the end of X-Men #54 and started off in Onslaught: X-Men, then was developed over the course of Onslaught Phases 1 & 2, finally concluding in Onslaught: Marvel Universe. Tie-in issues were dubbed Onslaught Impact 1 & 2, corresponding with the Phases.

[@UnifiedEntity]

Wait wait....Hold the FUCKING phone....So in the 90s.......The Xmen was saving Marvels ass? But now Marvel has been fucking with the Xmen and Mutants since then? WHAT!?!! Side note the art from the 90s is freaking amazing

[@TevyaSmolka]

yep that and spider-man were the only things selling at marvel

[@pious83]

Most of that art was down to Andy & Adam Kubert and the amazing Joe Madureira.

[@azozazoz2131]

Tevya Smolka Really? I'm really thought they've been saved thier butts by X-Men the Animated Series, i was born in the late 90s, but i didn't know Marvel went bankrupt

[@cmbaz1140]

fox has the movie rights on x men ,mutants and all.....soo marvels answer was simple killem off .....make INHUMANS GREAT AGAIN !

[@larrymarshall9593]

c@mbaz for the first time you mean.

[@avatar4real327]

Xavier-"Hey XMEN, you want to go KILL some people" *Turns into Onslaught* XMEN- "Well, that was weird...." Rob you're so funny!

[@RobotCavePartytime]

"UPON FURTHER CONSIDERATION, I HAVE DECIDED TO BECOME INVOLVED IN THIS CONFLICT" I swear Rob, you have a lot of informative content, but when you break and get real during your vids, and do rundowns, you're funny as heck.

[@destrokincaid6318]

It was psylocke and bishop, not beast. That makes me question alot that rob says....

[@mrblue3879]

Ooh you said heck

[@kingkold]

I still love the onslaught saga till this day

[@DemoNXCros]

11:02 Best ...part...ever...

[@IAMChasingTheCool]

Yes, yes it was!

[@adoniscreed4031]

'Apocalypse man, you might wanna get involved' one of the funniest things I've ever seen on this channel 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@caseyjones8246]

Apocalypse "Sir Voice" - Upon further consideration, I have decided....lolololol

[@Lone_Rocket]

Casey Jones That was my favorite part.

[@ChaoticV]

I love you're version, the Apocalypse part made me laugh: " well upon further consideration..."

[@Plamkton]

I wish he could be like this in the comics, at least partially

[@TheDeFiler316]

The way you explained the story was down right hilarious. Great job Rob!

[@DDAAXX]

XD 5:30 adamantium gets his wolverine ripped out!!!

[@mancamiatipoola]

So how did the adamantium get put back into Wolverine? Or is this Onslaught saga one of those things that never really happened in their reality?

[@karlkartoffel294]

@@mancamiatipoola Apocalypse made him one of his horsemen and gave him back his adamantium.

[@pious83]

The story might not have stood the test of time, but the art is still fantastic!

[@SDolan]

pious83 nothing compares to that 90's style of art!

[@st4ne4rmthevill63]

S. Dolan Riley Rossmo, Kenneth Rocafort, Alex Ross....they compare. I love their artwork.

[@taraishot100]

What are you talking about people from my gen who loved comics remember onslaught but mainly because of the game

[@aztectlaloc7577]

I am loving the run down. it's the simple and I love how energetic and you cut straight to the point.

[@Ali-bd6kb]

11:16 I laughed my ass off

[@amirnoor8607]

FINALLY! Everyone needs to know how epic Onslaught is! Thank you so much for this Rob! This was the peak of X-Men for me!

[@Sabaition]

Okay. This has to be one of my favorite quick recap I've ever seen. That was hilarious and informative. BRAVO!!! It felt like the "What the frack is happening on Battle Star Galactica" videos. Loved it.

[@Ariesphoenix1]

The Onslaught story arc is where I expanded my reading of marvel. I had been reading Spiderman a few years before. This was the coolest 😎 story for me back then!! Thanks for covering it, you explained it awesomely! Keep up the great work!

[@tjack8029]

Man you ARE CRAZY!!! Thanks for the ride. I am really enjoying your breakdown of the comics. and you end with PEACE as I do.

[@Emowji_Phiw]

Ya know for one of your lower ranked story lines, I have to admit that it was one of your best commentaries. You could have dragged this out to 4 segments, but you did beautifully with 1. Plus you had undertones of comedy that hit with perfect timeing. Thank you for this, I didn't know much about Onslaught, and know I do.

[@WayneBerryJr]

The way you summarized the whole Marvel Onslaught Crossover was entertaining and hilarious. And I may not have all the issues in my collection but you actually did summarize it according to very exact issues and Onslaught graphic novel I do have. Loved it bro

[@lordjolly2267]

Lol im feelin this rundown style....It's quick and gets to the point!

[@Mojospider2099]

JUST DO IT!!!! The whole onslaught saga

[@mrhopadopalus]

This is my favorite comics explained video, Robs delivery is just perfect.

[@thebookiemonster]

Had no idea it was just a storyline meant to reboot all the comics that weren't selling... great job would be awesome if you do cover it in its entirety

[@cavemaneruption]

Yep. It was pretty cool at the time. I still didn't stray away from X-men for the rebooted titles

[@wingmon]

The Rundown is simply da best. Please keep it up!

[@-Ryu]

I've met a lot of strong warriors, but fighting Onslaught was an experience I never thought was possible, and have never experienced since. To this day, I'm not sure I would beat him alone.

[@chrisperez6768]

Adamantium gets his Wolverine ripped out!

[@schmid171]

This is 100% the best ComicsExplained video ever

[@ImmortalDrignis]

that Apocalypse part changing his mind to help had me rolling lol. bro I wish I could give your videos two thumbs up

[@chrisjcollings]

I think that was the funniest CE so far. Fantastic vid.

[@not_quite_right_guy8384]

That honestly was the best explanation of a comic book that I have ever heard. 🤣😂 Great job Rob.

[@kirbybooten159]

Absolutely LOVED the way you commentated this video!! I wish you’d do all you videos like this!!!!

[@Peecamarke]

MISSED the rundown! So glad it's back! Rob Corps!

[@TheSucc33d]

Your ad-lib version of the onslaught saga absolutely cracked me up.. well done. I remember really enjoying the series as well when it came out but like you I was quite young.. could say they did know their audience though since enough of us seem to remember it fondly if only at the time heh.

[@NocSoulo]

the hilarity of this comic is only enhanced by your commentary!! Great video!!

[@xChirox]

Rob the way you did this one was HILARIOUS! Great vid, man

[@ManuelGarcia-ki4vc]

i like how you kept referencing it as a "party" lol

[@theoncomingstorm8009]

[@mariobrown8185]

thanks Rob for the memories that was literally the last comic book I read before I gave them up

[@MrUnclehouse]

@comicsexplained I enjoyed this video in the way a 15 year old would enjoy hearing about this if it were told to him in person. The editing, the way you spoke, and the slight sarcasm made me feel like you were a kid telling their friend how sweet this comic was. Gave me a good laugh

[@agoosewithtwohats4443]

FINALLY ! Wanted this for so long

[@lilnason98]

[@kidistight]

FINALLY another Rundown, been a while since we had one. I love the tone you take when doing The Rundown. Apocalypse: I might be destroyed, well maybe I do need to get involved after all. LMAO.

[@hemot2336]

Dude, you had fun recording this, you can really tell a difference in how you told this story.

[@eklypse180]

[@CedKruger]

This rundown was fucking hilarious. Not for the story, but for the commentary. Especially when you were talking about Apocalypse.

[@moisesrosado9516]

Love the onslaught story!!! Please do it as well as hero’s reborn (even though it was very confusing)

[@tyronelaird3227]

I love the series way back when 90s comics got to love it thanks for the fresh I feel nostalgic

[@MrRogueCrafter]

YESSSSS THE RUNDOWN RETURNS

[@JesusSerranoFireandIce]

skankhunt42 hahaha same here

[@FunkeeMawnkee]

great breakdown bro!

[@patrickmichaels6141]

Hadn't thought of "ONSLAUGHT" IN EONS! LOVED THE FLASHBACK.

[@ZiplockBob]

As far as you doing more rundowns. Please do more. However I tend to watch anything you do put out with a few exceptions here and there.

[@Nexum120]

I love your videos! Informative and hilarious, good sir.

[@levihrah6]

The narration of this is HILARIOUS!!!😂😂😂

[@RajivKumar-qm4zt]

I love the way you explain this story

[@lavawingsplays1627]

I like the idea of Xavier and Magneto fusing into this insane threat though. I'd actually want to see Onslaught in another Xmen/Avengers movie if they make one, even if it is changed and contained only within Xmen, I'd still love to see it.

[@mickylord21]

I missed rundowns so much lol I love this
