- Why I LOVE DC Comics | Getting Started with DC Comics | Marvel vs DC Comics
This is the first episode of WHY I LOVE, the show where I wax poetic about all the things I love in comics. Today, I'm talking about DC Comics. I want to be clear the air -- this is NOT an 'I Hate Marvel' video. This video is just a list of the things I love about DC Comics. Comparisons are just to get the point across.

Same happened with me when I got into comics, was looking to get into Marvel but they had so much continuity, DC had easier starting points
Batman titles are fantastic now
They can both be confusing regarding the continuity to the newer reader. DC with their vast multiverses, dark multiverses and omniverse lol but Marvel has a multiverse then Merged everything so yeah...lol the newer reader may get confused initially if they don't do a little homework. DC's is more in order chronologically easier to follow though than Marvels multiverse.
I love DC started reading during the new 52 its what got me into comics so many great stories and continue loving it to this day
Same. New 52 Batfamily (such as Batman, Batgirl and Batwoman) where the best.
@@lazuruswolf6668 yea they were
@@voiceoftheknight1939 New 52 sucks because it led to the terrible Doomsday clock
Same my first comic book was JL new 52 vol 1 which is 🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate the positivity you bring to comicstube.
I wasn't much of a comic reader, a few months ago I watched invincible and it brought me back into the super hero mood, so I was suddenly reminded of batman and started rewatching batman the animated series, before I knew it I started reading the comics only for him and I have to agree with your point about DC characters, they really have more than what we see from the outside, I never realized how much each character has to offer and they start to grow on me, even the ones I didn't care about much ,before ,like flash, all thanks to batman I am glad I found the desire to finally get into comics.
Ayyeee, nicely said. I remember we spoke briefly during a stream about why people are drawn to their publisher of choice, especially when it's not because of a necessary dislike of another. It's just a feeling. Be well!
Totally agree with your thoughts on DC!! They got me into comics and continue to keep me to this day👌🏻 one Spider-Man story I will say is easily accessible, though, is Spider-Man: Life Story. It's only 6 issues and is a great character study and unique concept
I’m a dc fanboy so it’s nice to hear you gush. Dc draws a lot of negativity as of late.
I like how you started by saying we should bond over things we love, not what we hate, couldn't agree more. I'm enjoying the channel, I'm getting back into comics again after about a 10 year hiatus. And DC stands out to me a little bit more than Marvel but I enjoy both immensely!
Agreed. Im so sick of these CG assholes who hate on anything. The comicstube community needs more positivity.
I love how you do not talk trash about anyone or anything, you just focus on the positive things you like. I have to respect that. I love tye channel I've been here from the start
I also love DC. Great art and stories.
I love any comic that is well-written and well-drawn. I don't care what company publishes it or what character it is. Leaving a writer's personal politics out of the stories is a must for me.
DC has better standalone/evergreen titles. The crisis’/reboots help with new readers.
Marvel has a lot of great runs/jumping on points.
love DC comics and this mindset that you have about sharing what you enjoy rather than what you hate
Awesome video dude, you’re my favourite comic youtuber.
Love the positivity. I’ll be receiving my shipment of the DC graphic novels on Wednesday.
Some hidden gems for every DC fan, legion of superheroes by Paul Levits (his second run) and the mark waid flash!
Awesome post like always!!! Talking about DC , does anyone know if there is going to be batman earth one volume 4 ? I really enjoyed the story in this series and would love to hace a 4th issue since the ending of 3 introduces the joker .
My pull is mainly Marvel and indies...
And one DC title
Batman!
Hi BJ! I really enjoy your channel and your unboxings. If I could recommend a great addition to your DC collection. There's a new omnibus coming out of the 80's definitive catalogue of heroes and villains WHO'S WHO. It's going to collect all 26 issues plus the updates. It's a great piece of history and it's really cool to learn a lot of obscure trivia about the characters, plus it's filled with classic art!
I collected them when I was very very little from my grandparents when they originally came out and am looking forward to the omnibus.
Love it. Love the channel, the outlook, your approach to how you break down your opinions -- moreover, positivity and kindness is just such a better vibe when you're talking about your hobbies.
Instant sub and like. I love DC!
Dope video!!! Got into comica about 4 months ago amd Green Lantern has helped me branch off into literally every JL member!!
If you love Batman you should the chuck dixon run on batman and Nightwing. Like I mean the Dixon stuff even outside knightfall trilogy his stuff is great.
Great video man!!! Man I can relate so much with you on comics.I started reading with the release of Absolute Carnage for the new stuff.I am like you more of a DC fan by a long shot,but I do like Venom and some others like Spiderman.Even before I got into comics I was all about DC and especially Batman.He is also my favorite.I am with you on Marvel though,I feel lost and don't know where to start lol.I feel DC is easier to get into,like you said.My favorite so far for the new stuff was the first Metal.That is so awesome,even the tie-ins were great .The first comic series I ever read was Kingdom Come.My neighbor is a comic fanatic and he loaned it to me and it basically lit a fire from there 😂😂😂😂
Love your style ...great take!
i am glad you a comic book liver i been since the 60s reading the dc comics i know my favorite back then was batman blackhawk challengers of the unknown green lantern justice leaque and many more!
Back in the day I loved my DC Vertigo books. I got back in to collecting again just as it was shutting down, which saddened me. As to Batman, the only series i collected was the early 90's Legends of the Dark Knight run, but that pretty awesome..
Well YoungJedi Thank U 4 Sharing,Remember 2 Add OmegaMen 2 Urrr Collection......📚👀📚😷🦁😷📚👀📚
I agree that with your premise on DC having more stand-alone stories to pick up over Marvel creator runs. I too prefer DC to Marvel. Although my favorite character between the Big 2 is Daredevil. My all-time favorite character in all of superhero comics is Ninjak from Valiant. If you haven't, you should check out comics in the Valiant Universe published between 2012 and 2018. The shared Valiant Universe (between 2012 and 2018) is head and shoulders above the Big 2 when it comes to continuity in a shared universe. You can find some of their best ongoing series in TPBs and hardcovers for Harbinger, X-O Manowar, Unity, Imperium, Ivar Timewalker, and Bloodshot Reborn. For good stories in these series, check out Armor Hunters, The Valiant, Harbinger Wars, Book of Death, and 4001AD.
Bro your editions are great, I wish we had that in our country.
Great vibe video. I had to subscribe. Question. Do you think the continuity issue is why some people love getting in on the ground floor of new publishers/series like Canto?
JLA New World Order is one of my favorite comic book stories!
i prefer marvel over dc,it was marvel that got me into comics,
i do love dc comics but marvel will always be my favorite.
I LOVE THE MARVEL continuity,something i wish dc had more of,
dc have way to many reboots for my liking
dc only really had two reboots
@@Raghav_Sachdeva i thought it was more,they have done it to charecters outside the complete dc universe reboots,but the point is even 2 times are to many.
@Tanner Hutchings not really new 52 was terrible for the most part,rebirth had some good stuff but also alot of trash
Nice video, man! I like what you said about talking about things you love, rather than going for hate clicks like it's popular to do these days. I agree with a lot of your points. DC is easier to get into than Marvel continuity-wise, although I think both can get quite convoluted. I got into comic reading through DC New 52 as well. That was the first time I didn't feel daunted about picking titles and jumping into them, so I'll always be a bit of a New 52 apologist for that reason (plus I think it had a few really good titles). However, Spider-Man is my favorite superhero, and that's largely because of his "With great power comes great responsibility" mantra, and because I feel he's relatable in so many ways. That said, I get what you mean when you say that Marvel characters are "cooler" than DC, as that was how I felt for much of my childhood watching the cartoons.
Great vid, BJ. I got into comics through DC for many of the same reasons, but particularly the interesting characters and clear starting points. There is something missing from your analysis, though: naming. I think we can agree that DC doesn't have a great track record when it comes to naming villains. I mean, Captain Boomerang, Mr Freeze, Captain Cold, Reverse Flash, and The Thinker? Really? 😂
Can’t argue with you there lol
Awesome video!! Couldn’t agree more!!
Its funny, while all your points make sense, I always loved D.C. for the exact opposite reason. When I first started comics, DC was the company that was more into continuity. Characters grew and moved around titles. Robin became Nightwing and went to the Titans. Kyle Rayner dated Donna Troy (Who became a member of the Darkstars) and went on cruises with Wally West and Conner Hawke. Everyone got drinks at Warriors. Books really didnt stand on their own as much as it was a whole universe that worked together. Even the 5 Superman books at the time worked more like one weekly continuous story. Then how all these different things effect the Legion of Superheroes!
It was a lot different then Marvel where It seemed every character fit in its own different world. If Spiderman showed up in the Avengers, he didnt really fit in and felt awkward. And the idea of Daredevil joining them for an adventure seemed weird. It seemed the X-men were in a different world than Captain America. One book was about race relations this huge issue that effected the world and it was almost never brought up at all in Cap or the Avengers.
Bendis, as much as people bash him, was the one that finally made it feel like one cohesive world where these people would actually know each other's names and call each other if help was needed.
Which is not to say I disagree with your points. They are spot on. It's just funny to me that they are both true and make us both like DC for exact opposite reasons.
So great! I might do a video like this to!
Nice! I just subbed so I can get notified when it goes live
@@comicsaredope #RetconDoomsdayClock
Spread the love brother....
Brother I agree with what you say about the DC titles. I always was drawn to DC because they seemed to me to be a more real situation then Marvel. You strip the powers from the heros it would still be a good story.
I like both dc and marvel
Each Company Has Ther Own Uniqueness,But I Roll DC/Cause BATMAN Also.....🦇😷🦇👀📚👀🦇😷🦇
I love Batman
I wish I could read and enjoy the xmen. I put their main title on my pull when it rebooted on number one a couple yrs ago. I canceled it after 10 issues. So rare for me to cancel a title.
I feel like I need to read a couple thousand issues to understand wtf is going on with the xmen.
I left comics in the 70s.
The xmen were easy to follow back then.
Guess that's my punishment for staying gone for so long.
Realistically, DC is the OG and I think has always been better then Marvel. Only thing Marvel has on DC is the MCU and even that is questionable nowadays.
I'm anti-DC for exactly the reasons you love DC. lol
What? Lol I gotta hear this explanation
I started reading DC in the early 80s and continued to read until the New 52, which is the biggest pile of comicbook trash in history. Subsequently, Rebirth promised to return the continuity I grew up with and loved but that was a blatant lie and just kept the new 52 mostly. So I despise DC because they decided that loyal readers from previous decades weren't as important as noobs and kooks. #notmydc
