  • A dystopian re-imagining of Superman's origin and the tale of the New Gods in which Kal-El's shuttle lands on the hell-like planet of Apokolips instead of Midwestern Earth, thus being raised by the all-powerful "god of evil," Darkseid.

    0:04 Well yeah Superman killed Zod here and all, but he told Zod to stop and he didn't want to kill him and Superman had no choice but to do it. And Zod told him while fighting that "There's one way this ends Kal either you die or I do" that settle it right there and Zod said that he wasn't going to stop killing too "These people you have adopted I'm going to take them all from you one by one"
    If you want to call Snyder's Superman a murder, then you might as well say Christopher Reeves is because he killed Zod without care and even Superman killed him and his soldiers in the comics as well.

    These are fucking fantastic. You rival Comicstorian and Comics Explained easily and they both have like 2 mil subs each. I think if you fuck around with you titles for videos so that they pop up when people search for either Comicstorian or Comics explained, look for key words and maybe change the thumbnail pics to ones that look similar to, fans of either of those channels will jump at yours because you cover stories neither of those other two channels do, and you do them just as well as them but more authentically with funny moments and a relaxed attitude, like the chris pike joke had me in stitches. Reach out to me if you'd like to bounce some ideas off me mate, would like to see your channel get much bigger!

      Strength alone isn't what makes Superman Superman. It's his altruistic compassion and desire to do good and treat other's fairly.
      In Snyder's films, we only ever saw fleeting glimpses of a truly characteristic Superman.
      Henry Cavill was a fantastic Superman, but the borderline nihilism and self-serving Randian brand he masqueraded in really played against him.
