Remembering X-Men's Onslaught with The Comic Book Men!

[@putridsunrise192]

Ethan's race changed and Ben got older but Sal still looks the same..... Time for a CRISIS!

[@oatmat]

Kei Kurono looks like a Crisis Just Happened Son!!!! however we need a Rebirth to explain and fix the parts that don't work

[@gettingartsywithalobster1949]

Kei Kurono Maybe nobody noticed a Flashpoint happened? Now get back to that room you've got another mission!

[@dearlydemented19ify]

I fucking love the blank, lost look on Ming's face.

[@joeyjoestar2419]

Jesus Ben and Ethan really have changed over the years but Sal looks the same. (laugh track)

[@joeyjoestar2419]

Yea

[@Kneel2ThaCrown]

*starts awkwardly slow clapping while looking around*

[@joeyjoestar2419]

Yeah I'm amazing.

[@Sicod79]

This is one of the first stories where the ending is like...I can see the plot requirements and why everything happens fits into a mandate. Nice seeing the boys from my old local comic shop in Red Bank NJ.

[@Ryan_Is_Deadpool]

Love seeing a more relaxed Mike. Ming looks as clueless as Marvel was making Onslaught lol love the episode

[@jamesflemmings2260]

I'm watching this version after the 400th episode version.

[@ryanmiller6103]

Watching this after watching yesterday's back issues

[@skywriter9532]

Woah! Moving on up huh Sal! Glad you guys are getting more recognition and big names guests!

[@chrisromano5944]

Love that Hulk moment, sacrificing his intelligence, risking becoming a monster again to save the world while proving that Hulk is the strongest one there is!

[@minjikim2904]

I love that these guys are on Back Issues.

[@ianmckee4726]

Franklin Richards pocket universe comes back in Robinsons Fantastic Four run. That crazy version of Captain America and hawkeye is hilarious.

[@williamgazca963]

And no disrespect to the comic book men but back issues should take over AMC 😉

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

I hereby dub this configuration: S&M&M's! Pain and pleasure that melts in your mouth, not in your hand!

[@williamgazca963]

Just Some Guy with a Mustache pinhead would develop die-aibetes! ☻

[@ItsOver9000Productions]

Holyshit!! Onslaught and Special Guests! COMIC BOOK MEN! ARRGHH!

[@gdgiannini]

This studio must be beautiful. Look at the wood behind them.

[@FallenGamer97]

Back issues being released always cheers me up after an annoying day.

[@PEEZYUBEEZIE]

Mikes gambit impression was priceless

[@insertdeadname]

Someone that's saltier than Sal!? I love Mike now xD

[@gdgiannini]

I can't be the only one FREAKING OUT right now!!! This is everything. Back Issues 150!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM FREAKING OUT!

[@danteturtle]

Ironic how the frame above Sal says 'Be thankful and love always'... and you're talking about Onslaught😂 Great episode

[@ComicBookUniversity]

Hey! Sal got Ron Perlman to make a video with him!!

[@terrelwillis4318]

Mike should come back and read hellboy

[@ojinrvk]

I missed not having Ethan, Ben and/or Tiffany; but really enjoyed you going over what the hell happened during Onslaught. That whole ordeal (and Heroes Reborn) happened during the time when I was out of comics and I was never really sure what the hell happened.

[@Ciciheartsbeauty]

Sal & Mike's bromance is too adorable! 😩😂

[@ThatKevinBravo]

I don't like to say this but....thank god the other back issues was not recorded so we could have this beauty!

[@kingmarc544]

the part with the hulk is so awesome

[@porygon-q2619]

I'm confused, I should hate this because of how hard Marvel has burnt me out on crossover events, But I love this!!!

[@SamSphinx]

A Back Issues... with 2 Sals... I LIKE IT!

[@davantebarbain3216]

lol onslaught final form reminds me of chowders fart cloud pet

[@_fendiman97]

Finally Onslaught after hearing Sal shit on his character for years we finally see him doing the story he premiered in

[@spagredo]

150 Episodes! Congrats ComicPOP Crew!

[@SirRobinBP]

I LOVED this at the time, I still feel a lot of nostalgia for it

[@Kneel2ThaCrown]

I would really like to see a history of comics quiz game or something between Sal, Rob, and Benny. Esp Sal and Rob. They are like living comic encyclopedias lol

[@8mad]

This was a really good Back Issues, Mike was awesome! I never knew of Mike and Ming, but now I'll have to check them out.

[@Ka_Five]

I found ComicPOP after I saw Comic Book Men was cancelled. It really filled in that hole I had. I've been watching for almost a year now, just kind of picking up videos here and there, and watching new ones as they come out. I NEVER knew this one was a thing. Made me a little emotional seeing this when I searched for Onslaught after watching the Civil War video 💙

[@trentward2725]

its my birthday sal. thanks for the awesome present

[@D3ADP00LWAD3]

Whoa! Ming and Mike! This is pretty damn cool.

[@amazingspidermew]

Excellent Back Issues with a pair of terrific special guests! Great way to kick off my birthday 🎉 thanks guys!

[@mikearchilla9406]

I have gained a new respect for sal with all his comic knowledge it is infinite I'm kinda jealous I don't feel like a true comic fan seeing him with the guys from comic book men and just astounding them with his knowledge on another note I am so happy seeing comic pop branching out with different guests.

[@Lecon223]

Sal, I think you mean his terrible FUTCHA! Love this episode!

[@buffbeenstuffed]

I was the one buying those Avengers comics during that time... god do I remember those days

[@MercysLittleShoww]

This was so cool to watch. I love the ComicPOP crew and I'm always kinda bummed when I see they're not in an episode, but this was a lot of fun.

[@Chaogardenx]

This should be the most viewed video on this channel, it´s the ComicBookMen guys!

[@Grievousish]

I know for a fact I have at least one book with that X-Men ad in it. Comic shop I went to on vacation was selling 3 comics for 5 bucks. Good deal but they were all 90's comics. Some were better then others.

[@joeyott4772]

OK Jersey!!!! I see ya baby.Hold it down men.Great work sal!!!!

[@777Saviour]

Hey sal have you ever read any of Kurt busiek's run on avengers. I remember really loving some of the story lines he did like ultron unlimited and kang dynasty.

[@bAd12cheZ]

I want Sal and Mike to be best friends.

[@liumellowyellow666]

Congrats on 150 episodes if Back Issues!!!

[@billybob-bj3nw]

Sweet! We got a Comicpop crossover! Now let's get a ComicPop Elseworlds!

[@gamino18]

Another great video Sal!

[@jacob_ian_decoursey_the_author]

This episode deserves more likes!

[@instantbadass]

its awesome you got these 2 dudes on, love Comic Book Men

[@scottdunham7902]

Very different dynamic with this cast, wouldn't want it all the time but once in awhile it's a fun change of pace. Great show.

[@sirloinofice]

Are you ever going to do Inferno on Back Issues? There's killer mailboxes and a evil dentist in it.

[@sirloinofice]

and the dentist tried to kill Daredevil.

[@sirloinofice]

It's really fucking wired. I love it.

[@thedarkspecter9532]

Well, when you put it that way, how could they not cover this?

[@ruby8ball55]

Awesome Crossover!

[@Seton7588]

Another great episode!

[@Grievousish]

Damn this is awesome. Been watching Comic Book Men on TV since it Aired and now we get the crossover with my favourite channel. I only wish the episode could have been longer. Next step, Back Issues with Nick Landis!

[@Acetk]

I love it when you bring in guest hosts! Any chance for a Jawiin back issues? Hes pretty awesome on the Elseworlds exchange

[@batfreeze56]

Even though you lost the original Ben and Ethan episode of Back Issues, we still got something radical! Happy 150th!

[@derekgarcia384]

Love you guys keep up the good work!

[@thedarkspecter9532]

These guests were cool. I liked them.

[@supernerd5781]

Ciri is Bae Hey your the guy that wished me luck on getting with Harley Quinn Smith right? I didn't know you watch Comic Pop.

[@thedarkspecter9532]

Jack O Brien Yup, it's me. I'm subscribed to a whole bunch of these comic book KZbin channels. I actually created this secondary account just for that.

[@supernerd5781]

Ciri is Bae You clearly have excellent taste.

[@deazy6453]

The Dark Specter Yeah. They usr to have a TV show too

[@futtbucke]

Check them out on the and show comic book men

[@skullfullofbats]

How do you not have more subscribers! best comic show on youtube. Mike & Ming nice one guys!

[@aidenjgray]

Woah. Mike and Ming!

[@matyG101]

This is amazing

[@mikemegginson]

How am I just now finding this episode? I love comic book men

[@dannydoom6334]

Ming keeps staring into my soul...

[@marinehulk119]

Holy fuck, I’ve been gone for too long. This was one of the last back issues videos I saw and this was in the beginning of the year! Gotta start marathoning 9 months worth of videos

[@comicpop]

Thank you, dude! Here's a link to help get you started! kzbin.info/aero/PLDHGagKHrNsVhegSneNIXzD40CEbYTdqG

[@ivansplvd6518]

I love Onlsogut, I know its cheesy but I still love it

[@bhunt372]

An Asian Ethan? Man I'm glad ComicPOP's decided to include some diversity! Just kidding, but I'm amazed you did an episode of Back Issues with Ming and Mike! They're both cool dudes. I met Ming at Asbury Park comic con and we talked for a little bit. When I visited the shop in Red Bank, Mike gave me a free issue of The Amazing Spider-Man where Spidey met Jack Rabbit.

[@gloriacalderon4789]

Thank you.

[@guymeganmadeekbrown2991]

Great show

[@SeekerLancer]

Teen Tony Stark was when I quit regularly reading comics. It especially hurt because I was a fan of Len Kaminski's run on Iron Man at the time (it gave us War Machine and the Hulkbuster and was just a cool run with fun high-tech stuff and a well defined character for Stark). The editors came in and royally screwed him with mandates. Tony Stark turning evil was the last straw, he wasn't going to have any part of that. It took until Kurt Busiek's run after Heroes Reborn was scrapped for Iron Man to get out of the dirt... before Joe Q. ruined him again.

[@kazen16]

wow this is awesome!!! love the tid bits of history sprinkled by Sal and the guest! great show guys!

[@brandonhines25]

FUCK YES!!!!!!!!!!! Just.....YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gdgiannini]

Brandon Hines YES!!!!!!!!!

[@1975aeiou]

I hated that no nose version of Wolverine. Still, it wasn't from Magneto ripping the adamantium out of Logan's body. Right before 'Onslaught', Tyler Dayspring, Cable's son, tried to put adamantium back into Wolverine, and Wolverine's body rejected it, and left him a mangled beast with no nose.

[@ashleybeggs3527]

oh, awesome The Comicbook Men

[@lsmaddog2]

HOLY SHIT THIS EP LOOKS SO GOOD

[@elliem3205]

Anyone else notice Ming keeps looking at the camera for no reason

[@DominarRygel-XVI]

Yo what the hell?! The guys from comic book men!? Awesome comicpop!!! Although I miss Ben.

[@PhenomenalFrost]

Sal,Mike and Ming....this is some heavy shit lol

[@srh1son]

X-Men 3 is the Blob issue. Prof. X creeping there.

[@danawilliams3434]

wow that add came right on time

[@superluigiac]

I agree that this was kind of cool as a kid

[@conan2516]

Sliders reference

[@cisnerd_2093]

Sal, you mentioned that after Heroes Reborn they gave Avengers to Busiek. I'm looking to jump into some Avengers, and it seems like that'd be a good place to jump in since it leads into Avengers Disassembled, which is a story I'm very interested to read after watching your episode on it.

[@kodokanv]

this epic crossover....

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

The question is, which one?

[@haydenna6188]

does anyone else think that Sal looks like a younger version of Mike ? Maybe he 's a time traveling Sal

[@jconny65]

now i understand why you prefer paperbacks over hardcovers/omnis in these kind of vids lol great ep, though! one step closer to getting kevin smith on the show!

[@JoshMunroe]

The Onslaught Saga was so big, so dumb, so long... and I loved it as a tween. It was my first foray into going into the issues and trying to piece together the mystery of who Onslaught was before the big reveal. Who could have knocked out Juggernaut? What was Onslaught's relationship with Jean Grey? And let's not forget POST! You know, POST? Watchmen, this was not. But it was entertaining enough for me.

[@captainlandon7199]

Okay this is awesome!

[@HongKongJewy]

it took a little over 9 minutes to go over the backstory in order to get started with the actual comic haha

[@paige7576]

TELL EM STEVE DAY!

[@laramiewall]

Curious you enjoyed Exiles. I loved that run, but didn't know if it was my taste. Cover that sometime?

[@Mrmikehoncho1992]

I'm rewatching this video now and I just had an idea! Sal, what about doing a Heroes Reborn "series?" Something like what you did a few years ago with the Crises books? There's only a few of them and them all being 12 or so issues means you could do a single episode of each. Anyways, great job as always dude!

[@luthermanning6945]

Ming's stare into the camera is super creepy. Also, how soon before Sal gets their cold?

[@Redem10]

Remember when team fought together instead of against each other

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

I 'member.

[@sirtoby4939]

'Member when comics had credible villains in them?

[@supernerd5781]

SirToby I member

[@AnmolSingh-dh3hq]

Redem10 I

[@danielgarcia9294]

Mike is what would happen if Ben retained all the info sal says

[@TheClitCommander530]

What I gather from this episode is that X-Men comics were convoluted and ridiculous way before the current Jonathan Hickman run.

[@musiclife2807]

awesome!!!

[@ThePandaSupreme]

Man wish Ben and Ethan could react to this event

[@EhNoLove]

Damn ComicPop haven't watched yet but dis is gonna be good.
