I hate how rob explains so much in the characters,and gets like 400 000 views while watch mojo put out short 1 minute vids on character origins and get millions of views. I fell like it's unfair
Marc Summers damn right
short attention spans bro.
Not to mention how they often get things wrong.
They rush through it and miss soooo much. Rob is a godsend.
Short videos are simply more appealing than longer ones. I’m sure if there was a metric that actually measured how long people spent watching videos on each channel, Rob would be doing better than the clickbait channels.
I loathe what Marvel keeps doing to Colossus.
Even though in the Deadpool movie, they did a fair representation of Colossus as a chivalrous steel giant (albeit in CGI).
Arguably, Colossus is nigh equal in strength as Ben Grimm, The Thing, he keeps getting short shifted by writers. He has lifted the Blob. He is far more skilled in fighting styles, Greco-Roman wrestling as well as rumbling (look who his teachers were: Wolverine, Cyclops, Warbird, Nightcrawler and Beast) and martial arts. The Thing is just a brawler.
He was the powerhouse & invulnerable one of the X-Men, far more than Warbird, Beast and Wolverine. He had the heart of a poet. A simple farmboy far from home.
Give Colossus his due. He has arguably been my favorite Marvel character because he is humble, innocent, talented and has great love in him not just for Kitty Pride but for humanity and mutant-kind too.
You have soul, brother, very well written.
Agree! Piotr and Kurt are the necessary gentleness that the X Men family need. Both wonderful characters.
We've seen a stronger and more skilled Colossus in Deadpool 2 now
here here!! well said soldier o7 Jesus Christ loves you
Actually he is not Grimm's equal in strength..not even close. He has and will always be a class 75er meanwhile Grimm has been on a steady incline from a base of class 75 into class 100 via mutation advancement and exercise.
I'm sure someone already said it but when Colossus transforms he undergoes a whole body transformation. Flesh, bone, muscles, tendons ALL convert to an Osmium like steel. This conversion is psionic in nature and results in his atoms being swapped via an apparent extra dimentional process with atoms very similar to Osmium . Osmium is a very dense metal that can actually be found on our periodic table. Pete's form of Osmium is more durable and flexible the naturally occurring Osmium.
Often, writters forget than Colossus doesn't need to breath while in metallic form.
Not only that but he doesn't need to eat, drink, sleep etc while he's in metallic form. He is sort of immortal in that form.
that backstory of how Colossus powers manifested is contradictive of how it was originally shown appearing. It happened when he protected his little sister from a runaway tractor. they even put that fact in the 90's cartoon.
Its a retcon...
I thought is was a 18 wheeler
Collossus was always cool he was very powerful with the heart of a artist and poet i remember when he had to kill proteius it was sad. He was a very complex character.
I want a Colossus movie tbh
Let's be honest, we want movies of all superheroes and villains.
+SlothGiraffe Fail
+Satsui At what?
+Satsui Fail nothin'. I'd watch a movie on every superhero and villain.
+SlothGiraffe I was thinking of squirrel girl from marvel, and DC's Riddler...
"lack of poor sells " which means they were selling well lol
Jesus Perez First time watching this video, first thing to catch my attention LOL
Literally just posted this. Guess I'm late lol
"So what I wanna do here" is how you start 90% of your videos...love it
At least he doesn't do the stupid intro from comicstorian
+Ivan B no one likes Spider-Man 3 lol
Marvel has always been ahead of its time when it comes to civil rights and social issues
Exactly...especially in the animated 90's cartoon. It's kinda funny that in those old cartoon alt right was a constant threat to peace for xmen
Now they lost their spark
You mean Marvel knows how to exploit a situation for profit.
@@niksterfer6sir the "alt right" did not exist back then and is a miniscule part of the population these days.
@@jersydvl you think stans soapbox speaking on racism and civil rights in the comics of a barely surviving small time comic company back in the day was just for profit?
Rob...Rob...Let me tell you something...Listen up...You,sir,Are Awesome.
you just moved up on my list of youtube awesomeness as well Rob.
listen rob listen..honey listen
Colossus is one of my top three favorite X-men, right next to Kurt, and Logan. There is a lot of potential for him, especially after the side affects he's suffering from being infused with the Phoenix force.
My favorite X-men. I'm glad to see you guys taking the time out to give him an Explanation.
Wow Rob you definitely have the difference in the audio quality from 2016 to 2019. It’s so cool to watch your channel evolve into what it has become. Great work keep it up
I remember reading these when I grew up, thinking "I could do that!" then realized how insanely much information, backstory, characterarchs and so on goes into it. It´s really amazing!
collossus needs to become vibranium, bones included mixed with juggernaught cytorak strength and resistance at molecular level.
So his nigh on indestructible lol
@@galaxytraveller1612 I DON'T GET IT?
@@JakeTheMuss10454 nah I was saying with the upgrades he'll be close to indestructible making him more badass
Is that all? 😂
Thank god you arent a writer
love Colossus
he will always be one of those iconic figures into the X-MEN universe
I love this video! Colossus is one of my favorite X-Men!!! You should do more extended history videos like this! I really enjoyed it!
This was a very well put-together video on Colossus; it's nice to see more about Piotr than just "He turns into a big, metal punchy guy."
I feel that he as a character is underrated, especially behind the Thing (Ben Grimm). I feel if he gets his own solo series by a good writer (similar to She-Hulk's by Charles Soule), he'll get more respect in future team stories.
My favorite Colossus quote; "Exercise is a luxury of the rich."
Ooh that’s a good one
@@angelopellicci179 Yeah. Credit Chris Clarmont for that unless it is a quote he lifted from someone.
PLeeeeaaaaseee do a hydra video! Please i really want to understand who based it, the Red Skull, etc please because it's kind of confusing
+Baron Zemo yes, i second this. Hail Hydra!!!
Ive been telling him this in like 5 videos
+Baron Zemo who knows. He could be doing the research for it for a proper video analysis. I'm sure it's a lot of ground to cover.
Yeah. Or maybe he's saving it for Civil War to come out but i think he could do it now
I run hydra. NERD!
Thanks!!! Collosus has always been a one of my absolute favorites and I loved to seeing him get his dues.
Gonna be fun to see him in Deadpool.
+Jakomi of the Rose looks like he's gonna be all CGI unfortunately.
+Shaun Jon how the fuck you want it to be?
+Shaun Jon yeah but it doesn't mean that this CGI will be poorly made, from trailer you can see it's really well made. :D
Ethan LongBow they could use a real actor and utilise camera perspective techniques like in Lord of the Rings.
+Shaun Jon wow smaug looked so realistic sorry for doubting
Colossus looks fvcking cool. Period.
Wolvering colossus gambit cable my favorites
This comment came before Deadpool 2 so I believe you
I'm a real big fan of punctuation. Love it!
Colossus has been one of my top three favorite comic characters since I was a kid! Love this video.
Just have to say appreciate your commentary and channel so much!
He looks so cool 😁
I know I am
Katrina Tecxidor Yes he does
Yes you do too. 😎
Loving this!!!! Colossus has been my favorite since the first time I even heard of the x-men in the early 80s!
Thanks Rob. Love your works
@ComicsExplained You killed it man, this video rocked. The details you included are so in depth and you had so much content through the whole thing.
Well done I say!
This makes me remember why I love comics. Imagine the Giant size storyline as a film. The superhero/horror/ sci-fi film would be something new that no one has ever seen. Imagine the Brood on film. It would be like Avengers meets Aliens. Maybe Deadpool gets Fox to wise up.
As a teenager in the 90s, I used to argue with my friends that my favorite hero in comics Colossus could beat Wolverine in a fight. The issue with Arcade shows with his gentle nature taken away. Colossus could beat him. It all depends on the writing and could go in Wolverine's favor, but I think he would need a good deal of caginess and cunning to pull it off.
Incredible video! Keep them coming.
been watching for 2 plus years and this popped up in auto play your voice over has gotten so much better watching this kinda sounds monotone compare to how lively you sound now and that's improvement not a insult I love the channel man watch everything you post.
I love when Rob does long videos..
Ah yes, when America has mutants, they have a school for the gifted to help them grow and become heroes. When Russia has mutants, they are tortured into becoming evil for the soul purpose of destroying America. I would say this writing is dated but who am I kidding.
Great video. Can't wait for you to finish it.
I actually watched this entire video like I do all your videos entertained at all times. '-' you sir are awesome. Great Video.
So Colossus is a Devil fruit user lol
Who's the master? Sho Nuff!
Leeroy: I'm the master
(singing) YOOOU are the last dragon...
Derek B am I the meanest, sho nuff
Am I the baddest ,sho nuff
Your videos are amazing and very much appreciated. Thank you sir
this is extremely thorough. good job
I was like ' Oohh, a video about Colossus, great!!!' Then i saw the video is 30 mins long, ' I'll grab my popcorn first!!'
Thank you!!! One of my top 5 Xmen
1. Wolverine (Obviously)
2. Gambit
3. Magneto
4. Cyclops
5. Mystique
+WaRLoKWYATT is that a statement or your top 5? Because 75% of them I dislike
Let make this easier for everyone and say Gambit is the only one out of this list of 5 I care for
+Wayne Powers really? magneto does nothing for you?
Anyone who doesn't like wolverine is a douchey edgelord just trying too hard to go against the grain. Wolverine will always be the best. No contest.
Your favorite is probably jubilee.... pfffft.
thanks for this vid, Colossus has always been my 2nd favorite character (Kal El is #1) in all of comics so i really enjoyed this and got some reading tips... thanks again
your videos are awesome! thanks
3:34 Why did you pronounce 'stamina' like 'STEMINA'? Not trashing but it was just...weird.
you may not realize it, but rob has a bit of a lisp. occasionally his pronunciation of words is changed because of it, but not so much that he cannot be understood or that the word sounds alien, just slightly off. it may not be why he pronounces it that way, since he could have vocal origins in the eastern, northern, southern us, speak another language, or a myriad of different things that effect how you pronounce words. i have a friend who lives in boston, he always asks if i want a glass of warter (water). its hillarious.
they were "cancelled due to the lack of poor sales." That doesn't make sense.
Shadowfly321 "they doesn't make sense"...😂😂
Morty Lamarg lol i didn't even notice that
Shadowfly321 why don't it
Shadowfly321 lol jk
I agree with Shadowfly321. He was probably talking as he was thinking ahead of his words and ended up adding an extra word to the sentence.
For anyone that doesn't get why that doesn't make sense, it's grammatically incorrect as 'lack of poor sales' would imply that the sales were at least decent or good. Therefore, the series being cancelled for average sales makes no sense whatsoever.
that was one hell of a video sir! great job!
i like thes. types of videos cause you never take the easy way out. keep them up
colossus is my favorite x man they should have him i n the entire X man movie
Reggie Macon he one of my favorites he all the xmen need to go back to marvel studios first before he gets his own movie
Negasonic Teenage Warhead explained please
Great work! Just awesome!
Thank you!!! Been waiting for this since I found your channel.
That is not what the Civil Right movements was about....
At all.
My favourite X-Man. Not overly fond of the Unstoppable version though.
Totally love this series ty
This video was amazing. Thank you for making it! Definitely learned a lot.
i want ah Static Shock movie
can you do an episode about unstoppable colussus?
+keelsnoepje FTW i really wish he still had those powers
+Wayne Powers yea
Then all the Hulk fans would know there place ^_^
+Wayne Powers their
Hulk would still win tho :x
This video was FANTASTIC!
Excellent comprehensive background on Colossus and the X-Men too! Outstanding job CE!
Please show me where the people marching for equal rights in the 60s/70s ever said a thing about gay or transgendered rights.
+Shardalon @ComicsExplained Not sure what history book you been reading but the civil rights movement had nothing to do with LGBT, feminism or women rights. SMDH!! Shit is very disrespectful!!
don't you mean human rights. the freedom to love is a human right.
Stonewall riots...
Colossus is hot. strong, and kind. A perfect man/mutant ^_^
I'm happy to be the one to remind you of this comment, and to have you cringe at your past self
@@grease6314 How unfortunate for you. Colossus as a character, even still is attractive in his representation, strong and still kind at the core. No regrets ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Excellent work my good man!
Thanks for your hard work! 👌
So Vibranium is his weakness?? So that means Cap could beat him with a Good wack on the Dome?
Possibly
Lol Ok. I want that Movie!
+Willie Robinson Rob should have clarified that it was the Antarctic Vibranium also known as Anti-Metal. Where Wakandan Vibranium (what Cap's shield is made of) absorbs vibratory or kinetic energy, Antarctic Vibranium, through a means that is not understood, emanates vibrations which cause the atomic and molecular bonds in nearby metals of other kinds to weaken, which results in the liquefaction of nearby solid metals.
+Willie Robinson If I remember correctly it's the certain "anti-metal" vibranium and I don't think Cap's shield has that type in it. I could be wrong though.
+richmyster84
That sounds AWESOME
gay rights had nothing to do with the civil rights movement
+Jessie Jones +10000000 @ComicsExplained SMDH!! Shit is very disrespectful!!
Read up on the stonewall riots in the late 60s.
What is disrespectful? Are you referring to gay rights? The Civil Rights movement? What Rob said? Rob associated gay rights with the Civil Rights movement?
@@talosisoursavior4015 Prolly just addicted to outrage ^^ Seems popular these days
@@Monsteretrope 🤣
Interesting! Thanx for sharing!
Great video. You have a very calming voice an easy to listen to. Great job keep the videos coming.
Could you explain as to why Stan Lee is so popular in the general public and writers like Jay Lewis, John Bur, chris claremont, Martin Goodman are not mention when it comes to movies or anything. I know personal that a year ago before knowing about this channel, I thought that Stan Lee founded and created every single chracter and a lot of my friends still think that. I mean, Stan Lee is cool, but I wonder why he got so famous.
Because he was the face and everyone else were the muscles and bones.
Because Stan Lee made a lot of the characters, and Claremont and the rest while making a few characters in the Marvel U mostly just play in Stan Lee's sandbox. Most of what they create, they publish at a company like Image. So they can remain owners of what they create.
+isaacmijangos Cause Stan Lee is ego-maniacal glory thief (Also business savvy).....
And Claremont is incredibly highly regarded in the history of marvel by fans, and critics! perhaps the highest, if not Top 3.
+viciousherpeople say he's gonna die this year or the next......................
Regardless of creators of different characters in the MU Kirby, Ditko & etc Stan was developing origin and, or world building for 90 % of the characters presented to him. Read his stuff about history in writing scripts for several genres in radio & newspaper then comics take the same time. Here's a good link describing role his in Marvel with Jack Kirby and other Talent at the Co.(zak-site.com/Great-American-Novel/ff_Lee-Kirby.html).
But for me and others Marvel approach to Comics was revolutionary, DC in my mind as a youth and older kids in H.S & College was viewed as a joke like Teen Titans Go is to Young Justice. DC hadn't really been relevant til Artist & Writers left Marvel most prominently Frank Miller and Image Crew and others to numerous 4 me to remember. An they reshaped the DCU to what you know from Dark Knight to what you see now. Marvel didn't dumb down vocabulary, subject matter, or complexity like DC back in the day while he was Editor of Marvel. THERE ISN'T LITERARY WORK IN ANY OTHER MEDIUM GREATER IN ANY ASPECT (Plot,Story,Drama,Romance,Politics, Horror, Complexity, Fantasy,ETC) TO COMICS BECAUSE OF HIM. In fact if anyone that you appreciate in literature, art,architecture, science, Politics,etc grew up in the 60s to Now, Most likely have been influenced by Stan and Marvel whether they read the comics or NOT. Marvel Ascension to the Top spot was founded on & during Civil rights movement. As a result the themes of Characters and stories were current with the political and social environment & philosophical ideas at the time for each decade since. That's why Despite Batman, Superman & Wonder Woman creating a stable foundation for the Super hero genre, Spider-Man is the most relatable Super Hero in Comic History and the rest of MCU heroes as well. In fact for those that hated reading books usually liked reading comics. Just based on that he & Marvel are responsible for literacy of WHOLE GENERATIONS OF CHILDREN AROUND THE WORLD.
As a REMINDER prior to the Watchmen, Sandman comics & Dark Knight, DC wasn't taken seriously, among mature readers. The DC you know now is a direct byproduct of those that left Marvel over 2 decades ago.
So if you're DCU fan boy now born after or grew up during that time, THANK STAN LEE.
I bet my cousin $5 this video starts with ( so what I wanna do here). Should have bet $20 : /
Finally! Been waiting for this one!
Great work Rob!
1975 WAS A GREAT YEAR
Yes, I was born.
+Joshua David me 2
It's amazing to me how the mixing up of the struggle by black people for equality seems to become the "norm" to appease the LGBT overlords. History becoming HER-STORY or THIER-STORY as not to gender shame anyone.
Good vid man keep up the good work
He showed heart while fighting The CHAMPION.❤️
is it me or is his voice monotonous as hell? just started to watch his vids recently. and I have to admit they are super informative. but to be honest... it's hard to stay awake sometimes... no offense though. keep it up!
Good for 10pm sleep
nah it’s nice and entertaining, not sleepy
WTF!!!! The Civil Rights Movement was in no way shape or form a movement that focused, talked about or spoke on the right of gays, lesbians, or the LBGT community. Their struggle is valuable and important, but to put it on par or try to tie it into the civil rights movement is inaccurate and disrespectful.
👍
+Jermaine Dickerson Doctor King wanted all of us to live in harmony, he wouldn't be proud of your words.
+Jermaine Dickerson @ComicsExplained Not sure what history book you been reading but the civil rights movement had nothing to do with LGBT, feminism or women rights. SMDH!! Shit is very disrespectful!!
+Jermaine Dickerson FACT!
agreed!
Awesome work, Rob.
Awesome video. Over 30 minutes! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hey Rob, can we get a women explained video? hahahahaha...am i right fellas? hahahaha haha ha hahaha lol.....hahahaha...hahahaha
+Bill Montgomery It'll have to be a series.
Chapter 1 Title: Ugh Are you fucking kidding me? I'm not telling you. You should know why I'm angry
+Carlos Gallon you're right lol
+Matthew KsE Sub-title: They're all crazy! (Except, and *Especially* Mine!)
+Bill Montgomery
Image every women becoming nice and supportive if you dress light. Now imagine all other man hating you for stealing their support.
Now imagine that super power going away around 40 and you did nothing ever on your own.
Congratulations, you now understand the average women.
+Bumble Bee that didn't make sense...are you trying to say women can use their looks to subvert ever gainingba personality then become rudely awakened by reality when they turn 40? That's only true for very attractive women n the same holds true for very attractive men
I'm disappointed Rob! The civil rights movement of the 60's had nothing to do with gays or LGBT community.. the civil rights movement was about race equality and integration..Smh...
I’m preparing for this part and it would help me a lot thank you
Thank you for this video! Loved it :D
first of all the "Civil Rights" movement had nothing to do with gay and or lesbian affairs. i cannot believe he just lumped that all together! smh
+donjohnswaggert amen brother these racist fools trying to twist history knowing young folk look at his video
+sophia jackson Thank You! I see it too. Twisting our history to remove us from it is the game they are playing at! We won't allow it! No More!
Teague Hester Lmfao
Chill guys. It was probably just mistake. Ignorant, but a simple mistake nonetheless. No need to get all worked up.
A mistake like that does not make him racist you fool. Rob's father is black. He's not racist.
This guy has ALL this information about Comic Books in the world, but has NO IDEA what the Black civil rights movement was actually about???!!!???
Black struggle was about us wanting to be treated as it had nothing to do with any LGBT movement! Please stop rewriting Black Peoples history & fight! It's damn disrespectful!
Agreed, truly irresponsible to the point of being dangerous.
Dangerous Indeed!
Except he didnt say black civil rights movement he said civil rights movement. The civil rights movement included much more than just black people. It included Hispanics, women, native Americans, and yes...even the lgbt community. Dont believe me? Look up the stone wall riots. Theres a whole group from the C.R.M. that was composed of black lgbt members.
curtisskeete dude he made a mistake, and you use the word "us" which is no way to go about combating racism as it implies you still believe in "us and them" which is completely moronic
Great video colossus has allways been one of my favs. next to flash on the dc side
I love your content buddy, subbed.
Starting at 0:28 you need to apologize to ALL BLACKS! The 60s civil rights movement MLK, X, Rosa Parks and the millions of blacks that marched and fraught to be seen as human deserve more respect that that shit man. VERY DISRESPECTFUL
You're such a racist fuck. You act like you're helping solve a problem when all your doing is spewing hate in all of your comments
He acknowledge it. What more do you want? This is bout a comic book not something that happened in the past. THATS OVER. Your what's wrong with today's world
Whats wrong is not trying to hide truth. LGBTXYZ has nothing to do with the black civil rights movement of the 60s.
+sophia jackson Exactly. Thank you. The civil rights movement has only been introduced retroactively to the LGBTQ... movement. The original civil right movement was mostly about black rights and voting rights.
Thank you for catching me up on my lore. Great video,Rob.
This is the best and most complete viode about Colossus EVER!
Congratulations for such an amazing work, comrade!!!
Wow...That was a lot. It feels a good to understand and know more about Colossus. Great Video!
Illyana was cuddling with a stuffed Fozzie Bear. SO CUTE!
I love the work you do. You have an awesome voice that I love listening to. Your efforts are top notch and I thank you for what you do.
Just Subbed. Your'e channel is Awesome!
i loved it thankx, it seems that am getting quite comfy with your voice
great job.
