[@rorschach221]

"It's hard to believe a douchey business mogul would become the President of the United States, but try to suspend your disbelief" had me dying.

[@galacticemperorsheevpalpat219]

Its ironic

[@lonely-soul-f2v]

That phrase aged like wine that turned into sour grapes.

[@christopherb501]

​@@lonely-soul-f2v That moron was and always will be the WORST.

*Batman:* "I don't know much about New God physiology, but I can tell from here...You don't have the balls." *Darkseid:* "...Well played."

[@dekaritheprofessor2631]

Perfect, Absolutely Perfect ❤🔥🔥

[@BBmetalhead04]

I like the idea of Batman having spare Robin costumes on hand whenever he meets young people.

[@rayvenkman2087]

*Youth Centers exists* Batman: “Time to host a tryout as Robin audition!”

[@oatmat]

Man R.I.P. Michael Turner, what an amazing artist

[@JoshMunroe]

22:02 Booster Gold showing up to "watch Kara get trained" would be a great scene akin to the "one punch." A Themyscaran simply walks over to BG when he 'ports in from the future, clocks him without saying a word, and he 'ports back with the last shreds of his consciousness.

[@ShardSpyder]

I like how in the movie version, instead of just vaporizing her instantly, Darkseid just beats Kara to near death.

[@sirtoby4939]

Oh, come on. Get do the good stuff. And by "good stuff" I mean pure, perverted, unrestrained bile fascination. JLA: Cry For Justice. Rise Of Arsenal. Countdown. Do it Sal. Remember the shame of the 00's.

[@rayvenkman2087]

I don’t know what’s worse. The worst of the 00’s or the worst of the 2010’s for DC.

[@Martin_TheCollector]

Yes!!! I loooooove all superman/batman graphic novels, especially this one. RIP Michael Turner, one of the best in comics.

[@TheCaptainKuhn]

ethan: is that a Zeplin? Hellsing Abridged Major: you never expect Zeplins. They are our greatest weapons.

[@DaBlueJay2001]

Bringing back the old thumbnail style, good call guy's.

[@thegamecrewnerds7616]

Yeah

[@ry_man89]

I wish Micheal Turner did more interiors for DC. Especially a Batman book. Amazing art.

[@BBmetalhead04]

Maybe Superman keeping the kryptonite ring on his person is similar to Logan keeping an adamantium bullet.

[@joshuanelson6795]

This story contains one of my personal favorite interpretations of Darkseid.

[@Zoopadoopa23]

😂 when Ben says kryptonon and Ethan under his breath whispers “kryptonite”

[@FatSnorlax]

Hahahahahahahahah Ben's "that's what clone means" is the funniest thing I've heard on Back Issues so far this year XD.

[@princednice0703]

Can you guys do the Batman No Mans Land storyline? I would love to see you guys review it

[@hazelcoleman6744]

"did no one make spaceships for a family?!" lmao

[@ABenAbides]

"But look at how cool this is!" Hahaha the plot of this comic is surprisingly entertaining for how contrived it is.

[@blueldrrich84]

22:20 wanna know a secret...? LOL!!!! you guys are so funny. seriously. xD

[@arttalkwithmr.s6703]

I got the colorist of this book, Peter Steigerwald, to sign this at a recent convention. It's not the strongest book I've read, but very entertaining nonetheless. Also I have a soft spot for the epicness of Michael Turner

[@TevyaSmolka]

This is one of my all time favorite stories

[@kordelshorgar122]

good episode i give it a 7/10 it needs more " i don't have to kill but i don't have to save you either" references :p

[@andrewwestfall65]

Maybe Superman kept a Kryptonite ring in his belt in case he was ever mind controlled... again. Anyone can beat him as long as they know his weakpoint

[@ChadBenjamin]

Or maybe it was for when he faces Zod?

[@Blackwing2040]

This has to be the funniest Back Issues that I watched. I actually watched the movie for this first before I bought the actually comic and then pointing out the differences

[@trigonometry1711]

Sal is in rare form this episode. Seriously hilarious guys. Great work!

[@Lecon223]

Sal's heat vision face is hilarious!

[@Tudoran45]

Great job guys! I was laughing my head off the entire video. Keep up the good work!

[@comixproviderftw_02]

22:09 HISHE Reference

[@jakemurphy4832]

Laughed my ass off at the Luthor president bit.

[@umr_lnt]

I remember my dad bought me this when I was younger and it was the first comic with superman I'd ever read. I remember loving it... let's see if it holds up to the ComicPOP scrutiny lol

[@anothercleverusername992]

Why... Is seeing everything you want to see, even if it's just for fun, a _bad thing_ in this AMAZING series? Weird.... Love you guys!

[@TheAwesome10160]

22:10 Lol that HISHE reference.

[@Scandal262]

'booster gold's not coming to themyscira' omg, you guys should do some booster gold.

[@Favar1]

29:20 - Wonder Woman's Face. Meme material right there.

[@LightningBee98]

For those who don't know, this story ended up spinning off one of the worst Sueprgirl runs of all time, in which Kara was drawn with the proportions of a piece of string, and she acted more evil than the villains she fought. Also she dated Captain Boomerang Jr. Twas pretty bad.

[@TommyWest.]

"Good Form, Jack!" *dead*

[@WannabeWryter]

What's that from?

[@TommyWest.]

@@WannabeWryter Hook

[@chris-uo1cj]

You guys are the best, I love back issues

[@milesupshur9869]

This is the best back issues in weeks.

[@batnick4433]

34:05 lol 😂 love me some Hook references

[@diegoortiz5139]

Would honestly like to see you guys cover more of this run

[@anthonylynch423]

Do more of this run please!

[@therealdude707]

The jokes on you Sal this is the volume I wanted you guys to cover. Lol

[@matterstoyou2970]

You guys should do Berlanti and Greene's run on B/S I believe it's in the late thirties I'm not a 100% I'd have to dig out the single issues I never got the TPB but there's probably one of my all time favorite BATMAN moments in it. And the writing; Berlanti pre-flash tv show and Greene who will have writing credits on ALIEN COVENANT and BLADE RUNNER 2049, are each stellar. Granted they unfortunately did movie GREEN LANTERN around that time but their B/S arc is one of the best of the series you guys need to do a back issues on THAT!

[@lolobrezzy24]

The couch thumbnail is back.👌

[@StFoley92]

Im not sure how, but you need the Sal slow clap in every video

[@GeminiTasiri]

I really want an Elseworlds book now in which Supergirl becomes Robin, thanks guys...

[@marnetteryes2613]

That's what Artemis' costume used to look like? Seriously? Thank you DC rebirth

[@MrAdamloring1985]

Art work done by the late Michael Turner. Great artist and fellow Tennessean.

[@agirlnamedbrett.]

' i havent had to use my compartment in a long time ' thats what HE said lol.

[@bhunt372]

The music is back to full length!

[@Grievousish]

Once again late to the party thanks to work (but not really. thanks Sal. Wink.) That ending makes me think of Lion King. "Look Kara, every hero the light touches is yours to crossover with"

[@nattychamps9098]

Yay great call on bringing back the thumbnail and awesome episode.

[@royal6827]

This is my new favorite episode of encyclopedia nerdtanica.

[@jcastrowhite08]

You guys were on fire this episode lol. And loving the thumbnail

[@there2b]

I love the ending in the animated movie more. The fight was just epic.

[@RyenFreaky]

Jeph Loeb's writing style is FUN. Plain and simple. I wish more writers would do the same. I think u guys over analyze a bit here. But hey, I know that's what friends do when they sit around cutting up a subject. lol

[@nathandiaz2863]

Heisenberg85 "No Fun Allowed Here." That's how you sound. Quit being so up your own ass and enjoy a story. Nobody has said comics are for kids in 15 years.

[@THEHORRORHOLIC]

I can't believe it I literally picked these issues up just yesterday at my neighborhood comic shop awesome timing

[@towlie710]

A HISHE reference and a Hook reference? Glorious

[@TheLoreStore]

162 back issues and we appreciate every damn one of them. No matter how bad my wednesdays I know I got y'all and Joel to keep me afloat. I can't wait to be here for the 300 mark

[@dragontears]

Love it! This was possibly the funniest one, tied with maybe Secret Wars.

[@miles1266]

man this is a early review, and I love Batman and superman and supergirl.

[@Ducaso]

34:00 was that a Hook refrence Ben made?

[@comicpop]

+Ducaso Bangarang

[@mr.micromaster4635]

Funny as always. ComicPoP crew.

[@ItsOver9000Productions]

This is early as hell!!! So this is the source material for Superman/Batman Apocalypse movie right?

[@Martin_TheCollector]

It's Over 9000 Productions Yessir!

[@thecocomastiux3655]

Are you gonna cover Geoff Johns GL run? Or at least Sinestro Corps War?

[@OreoBrawl]

The Cocomastiux Leave that to Rob, my dude

[@thecocomastiux3655]

Robs will last for a good while. I just want Ethan and Bens reaction to some of the great moments. Especially the last Sinestro Hal Jordan conversation.

[@normansmith9009]

The Cocomastiux I would pay to see that

[@grfgtbhh34]

What conversation are you referring to?

[@thecocomastiux3655]

Their last, the were we ever friends

[@avidplanes]

Lead lined or not I wouldn’t want that right next to my crotch

[@MercysLittleShoww]

I've seen a lot of people show off the Michael Turner Supergirl comics in haul videos and stuff but I've never actually heard anybody talk about the story inside. Apparently they just buy them for the covers

[@funkyweapon1981]

I thought I recognized Michael Turner's art when I first read this.

[@cmmosher8035]

I actually rather enjoyed the hour and 15 minute cartoon. It seemed to do a good job of summarizing the craziness

[@hornpilepheonix6254]

the movie version of this is really cool

[@ivansplvd6518]

Great episode!!

[@kofteburger]

13:53 Martha

[@batfreeze56]

When I was 10, I watched the movie version of this comic and thought to myself: "What the hell am I watching?!"

[@ianmckee4726]

I'm a fan of Michael Truners stly, although looking back on it I will admit its abit troublesome and kind of uniform in faces. I do like karas look here than when Churchill drew her in her own book. Thongs everywhere.

[@christopherb501]

The faces kill it for me. I can look past absurd proportions and even Escher Girls poses, to a point, but I got to have good facial distinctions and expressions. Turner stunk at that.

[@trans301]

Idea for a new show: "Comic Trivia Showdown!" (Or a more original name). It's like the Collider show (Movie Trivia Schmoedown) but with comic book trivia. There's a large enough comic book community that you could get a good league going, but it would probably have to be over Skype. Just a thought.

[@wonderoushistoryofclassicf9193]

Wow that Presidential dig XD

[@funkyweapon1981]

Meh, too easy.

[@christopherb501]

​@@funkyweapon1981But forever deserved.

[@camerond4689]

this was awesome.i love this series

[@04nbod]

The movie version is great because they have no fake out, they just put the Supergirl-Darkseid fight from the Great Darkness Saga at the end instead.

[@TevyaSmolka]

Heck the animated movie was amazing

[@ChadBenjamin]

Wait, shouldn't Public Enemies come first? I'm not complaining though, I loved Jeph Loeb's entire run with this series.

[@cadencollins1686]

DO THE NEW REDHOOD RUN

[@99jmaster]

was not expecting this today

[@superluigiac]

You should have mentioned that, when Kara first saw Nightwing she had the biggest crush on him, hahaha

[@christopherb501]

To be fair, it's safe to assume. Who his age or younger DOESN'T immediately crush on him?

[@adsjj1]

Gotta love the Hook references on this show! XD

[@andrewwestfall65]

Robin Super Girl goes to Two Face's house and melts his normal face making him One Face

[@ianmckee4726]

Tiffany, have you ever read that new avengers arc where the NA fight Agamatto, he of the eye fame? I'm looking to get rid of my Bendis Avengers stuff, and I'll send you it if you wish.

[@liverusrock6789]

Wonder if Supergirl will join the Titans? Superboy will get to join the Teen Titans eventually so if they do that you'll have a member of the Superfamily in the three main teams.

[@Damon.]

I love this book so much!

[@TheTheDontae]

The best part of back issues is!........ there's always a another back issues now if you excuse me it's time for today's episode😁

[@RadinV1]

Do the spider-men story back issue

[@snakktacularshazzle6514]

Thank you sal.

[@panthor109thabest7]

I would love to seeSuper girl as Robin I thought it would be funny/coolyou confirmed that it was ridiculous but needed

[@d.j.mulcahy1657]

Do you think you'll ever get to the rest of the Jeph Loeb Superman/Batman series?

[@sithapprentic03]

superman has a kryptonite promise ring with batman

[@lavalamp2344]

3 years later and they still haven't done public enemy's
