So basically, the end of Doomsday Clock was really the friends we made along the way.
Just A Watch no
I saw it more as Superman inspires us to keep doing the right thing
Ray Johnson Did we really need the first eleven issues/past three years to get to that message though?
@@Elcrisso1 well watching the DCEU and Arrowverse take on these characters and how everybody else sees the idea of Hero... The past 3 years were needed to reconstruct and show us what a hero really is
Young Nation I’m pretty sure what Rob said is true that the HBO’s series had to end first. I honestly prefer this over the show. For some reason it’s like a Superman story and Manhattan is the villain. Looking at it like that gives me a hope because I’ve always been a DC fan over marvel and I hope some marvel fans pick up these issues and try to understand the world just as Manhattan is
That line “these Earths exist to preserve every era of Superman”.... just damn
They set themselves up to tell so many cool stories without having to explain it every time
Rick Sanchez couldn't have done it any better
Save slOts
It gives me Christmas joy when I see a big CZcamsr that I subscribe to leave a comment on another big CZcamsr's videos that I also subscribe to.
It alludes to Superman existing in the MCU on Earth 24. He fights Thor and the Marvel universe..and the Hulk is his protector. He's even stronger than Doomsday.
Rorschach's journal. December 18th, 2019:
Today, an omnipresent God learned a valuable lesson from an alien with a cape ...
Follow by end credit music from the watchmen movie.
Lol, "...and it was good"
Do what you love, live to love, die for those you love- Superman
He's not omnipresent lol
I remember that episode from the Saturday Morning Watchmen cartoon! :D
And so, this makes DC comics longest running shonen manga in history. Manga about a boy named Clark who instead of power of FRIENDSHIP has power of HOPE to defeat every evildoer.
Who do you think inspired the shonen genre partialy? The orignal manga authors of the 20th century were looking for hope in a time of rebuilding their nation after they had lost the war and here's the american solders bringing these strange books with them with a new kind of hero in them they had never seen before they mixed that with the stories, mythologies, and belifes they knew and thats how the likes of charicters like Astro Boy, Mazinger Z, Cyborg 009 and Devilman came to be and those would later inspire the the likes of Goku, Kenshiro, and Jonathan Jostar and then those lead to Naruto, Luffy and Ichigo and that gets us to modern day where things ironicly have come full circle with My Hero Academia which mixes Superhero and Shonen tropes together to give us charicters like All Might, Deku and Bakugou.
In a strange way superman was the orignal shonen protagnist.
@Jos TRUTH!!!!
@Jos *Looks at Once Piece*
@Jos Yeah maybe.
@Jos at least we have the alternate universe comics that tell their own self contained stories
I love how Manhattan calls mime and marionette’s son Clark. He essentially created the Clark Kent/Superman of the watchmen universe.
Clark Dreiberg --the powers of Manhattan but the empathy of having two parents
The fact that both Dr. Manhattan and Pa Kent are named Jonathan is just the cherry on top :)
Amen
Yes but since the multiverse is essentially a version of the metaverse that shifts to preserve Superman's eras, where was the superman of this earth and how did it come to be a version of the metaverse?
Didn't they say superman always arrives somewhere in time?
Eli M I don’t think it’s supposed to be Superman literally. It’s more of paying tribute. Manhattan himself is immortal. Which I would assume means that Clarke is also immortal. This is more of a heart felt story. Manhattan finally regaining his sense of humanity. And saying thanks to the man who proved that super humans can have hope and dreams.
This gives me a new respect towards Superman, he’s not some strong guy with all the basic superpowers nor is he merely the first superhero. Superman is the constant beacon of hope across the entirety of fiction.
That's true, this actually made him see more human
yes, and he gave Manhattan hope, changing everything that was lost for him. The beacon will always be superman and the symbol he represents. In a way, Superman gave Dr. M his humanity back.
Which really makes the DCU superman, come across as even worst.
This is what most people don't understand about Superman. They can't look past how powerful he is. He is like Captain America is you made him stronger and his enemies tougher.
Yes, DC has been saying this for decades, nonstop every month.
I think DC summed it up best with this arc's end message "Hey readers, all your favorite versions of DC still exits out in the metaverse/multiverse. So when we recon stuff know it's still out there and hasn't been forgotten or erased.'
Salkafar thats my favorite one tbh
Its a damn shame Disney doesn't acknowledge that with star wars and the old EU.
It's okay, because no one is ever really gone.
@@willn8664 I mean they have it under the banner of legends so its basically the same thing. Thise stories are no less real than these DC stories
It also says that no matter the plot, no the matter the year, the Man of Tomorrow will be there; because he gave meaning to everything that is super.
So what I learned that no matter what:
*Superman is inevitable.*
Seriously tho, my take away is that you can be a god-like being like Dr. Manhattan, who grew to become disconnected from humanity and realize that after all this time, that the best of the human potential being shown to you by an alien, is STILL worth saving and experiencing thru the eyes of a child.
Superman’s greatest superpower isn’t what he can do, but the hope that he inspires. He “beat” Manhattan with hope, rather than with a fist.
The wait time between issues was unbearable, but the ending was fantastic.
That's the only reasonable way to beat mahatten, logic him him or something or just use hope but even then that still wouldn't kill him
Superman is an alien idea but he is an idea that anybody can potentially be. We all have the potential to be a superman.
@@username.exenotfound2943 Yeah, but he can clearly be deterred in other ways.
@@dightonazpeitia4350 injustice is non cannon
@@Zynirel Thanks for the tip. Now.... What does that have to do with our discussion?
In the end Dr. Manhattan was defeated by Superman's greatest power of all. The power to inspire people.
Talk no jutsu
Your so tacky
john lawful Action no jutsu? As in Action comics, or as in he inspires people through actions instead of just making big speeches that talk others to death-nothing wrong with that btw lol
Hope
"Defeated"? He was not defeated. His curiosity was satisfied and he decided to change things again. Some were changed back and some were changed further. Dr.M brings change. Hes done that since the beginning of his character one way or another. It was just Dr.M being Dr.M. Superman had no idea what Dr.M was doing or capable of. That's not winning-losing-defeating-being defeated. It just so happened to work out like that.

The "S" on his chest stands for hope. That's why he's the center of the DCU.
Jason Vang problem is none of the movies have done anything to earn that significance for Superman. It’s great on paper, but they need better filmmakers, and they’ve started corrected that
S for snake
Actually S is for Superman. People trying to be creative by putting extra meaning.

Dceased has different answer to that question.
No it isn't Dr Manhattan chooses to not kill superman weren't you watching the video? The reason Dr manhattan couldn't see his own future is because he killed himself not because superman could kill him. Dr manhattan could have snapped his fingers and superman would turn to red stringy super spaghetti.
@@MrSchizoid405 exactly
This battle completely changed the balance of the DC multiverse

Kudos to you JSGWAM. You are the hero youtube needs.
It all revolves around superman! 😮

@Dami talk no jutsu
My boi Superman INSPIRED Dr.Manhattan
This was honestly the one thing we didn’t see because honestly we forgot whom we are dealing with.
Superman is more then just a strong guy he’s Hope and kindness. He defeated Dr Manhattan not by fighting him but giving him a reason to fight for.
Superman was the only one to care. And that changes things.
This is what makes Superman Superman this is what the movies got so damn wrong about him. He brings HOPE to people around him he Inspires others to be the best they can be .
Even if that other is a blue god. He’ll still help them because it’s the right thing to do. Because that’s what Superman does.
Three cheers for the man of tomorrow everyone
Lmfao superman didn't do anything. He didn't defeat Manhattan 😂😂😂 stop trying to give him this feat. Fact is Manhattan simply had an epiphany & destroyed then remade the DC universe.
Agreed man and that is what the new superman movies are lacking and this cements moviewise that christopher reeve is the greatest superman. Zod blows: And metropolis is in peril,people are being blown away,non and ursa join him. Superman: No the people stop!! he'll come just leave the people alone.That is superman in a nut-shell yes he cares.
Clayton Davis
That’s what film Superman did as well. Whether you like the films or not, he DID do what you wanted him to.
He inspired Pete Ross to be a better person. He inspired Colonel Hardy, turning him into an ally. He inspired Bruce and Diana. He inspired the world with his sacrifice. He did it through action, not words. And actions do speak louder than words
Leviathan Nephilim77 he didn’t beat him. He gave Dr Manhattan that Epiphany. Superman being Superman was enough to make Dr Manhattan stop think and wonder at this person whom should HATE him should want to kill him for all he’s done protect him and reach out to him. To try and HELP him.
This isn’t a feat you can’t say Superman won this fight. He simply made it not a fight.
Call Me Elmin yeah and the fights in metropolis and Smallvill say a lot. The fact that while he was around everyone hated him protested him and censured him. His action in killing Zod, His Inaction to save his dad, all this points to a not very good Superman.
How he was viewed in Justice league is hilariously forced because we’ve only seen lots of hate for him.
We don’t see a man whom would stop by a sucidal person and talk them down with words and give them the strength to live on their own. At best the movie version would put them down and leave.
That reputation isn’t there that spirit isn’t there .
It really doesn’t help when the director shoves chirst symbols down our throats as well.
Geoff Johns told us with the Battle on Mars. You can't fight Dr. Manhattan in fisticuffs. You have to beat him with ideology. And Superman had the upper hand from the beginning. Well done, Johns. Now, I can't wait to see Wally in this final battle. Y'know, because he was set up as the golden child...Where is he?
In jail.
I thought they killed him.
In batman own words "Superman believe in human more then human believe in themselves" I forgot with comic its in
do you mean Wally West? why would he be set up to be a golden child? care to explain, please? I thought he was just another version of Flash

Dear god finally , after all of the delays and delays , it's finally here ! May all dc fans and watchmen fans rejoice !
Him flooring the justice league on Mars and restarting the DC multiverse is enough for me. there was never going to be a 1 v 1 battle. this was always going to be one of those philosophical moments where superman convinces Dr.Manhattan to believe in hope and that hope never dies. sure, the delays really did an impact on the story but overall, I thought it was greatly written!!! One of the best in our time 👏👏👏

KageTrauma hahaah i really doubt it tho.Manhattan made it pretty obvious he didn’t create the DC universe,he just came along and changed some details that had already been there.Created by someone else.Presumably the Source
Actually the Angels and the Presence are immune to all the time changes.
I assume that DM is trying to bring hope to his universe, by creating their very own superman. He even looks like young Clark. He will be the Superman of the watchmen universe.
I thought the same thing. That’s why he couldn’t see past the encounter with Superman.
@Helder De Almeida Thanks I was trying to remember that character from Superma Beyond.
Yeah I agree. I think he left his original world with a Superman and taught Clark what he needed to in order to grow as he developed and grew.
@Helder De Almeida I can see that both made from Nuclear power but other than that I don't see where captain atom is anywhere near a god, Dr M is so much more he can basically live in any time and place at once he has vast knowledge of past and future events some of which he has helped shape
I'd like to imagine the last thing Dr. Manhattan saw in his vision was that CJ stomping animation from San Andreas.

@@nickolsen7425 Its juts an assumption. Marvel and dc would never have a crossover. Particularly seeing as to how marvel is now owned by disney
Soooo Manhattan essentially turned himself into his own version of superman he was inspired by superman and his child incarnate calls himself "Clark"
The kid isn't Manhattan himself it's more like he was given Manhattan's power to give his world the hero they need someone similar to superman after superman inspired him.

Marvel has Santa seeing as he’s the most powerful mutant this means Franklin is number 2 lol
Dr. Doom: *kills Superman* "...what?"
KageTrauma I think he means because he becomes the most powerful mage/wizard in the marvel universe he could kill superman because superman has a very high weakness to magic. Plus he can time travel and is on par with lex for intelligence but is far more ruthless
I like that touch of Jon (Dr. Manhattan) naming his kid “Clark”. A nice nod to the impact Superman had in his life, but also, funny enough, Clark has named his son “Jon”.

“Holy comicsverse reality manipulation, Batman!” So DC Comics just created their own ‘Franklin Richards’. 🤔
Pretty much.
That is a great comparison. I hope a future author doesn't mess with him... not that there is a history of peole changing Geoff Johns' plans... :(
This whole history was a homage to Superman
I think in all the speculating for how this story would go all of us forgot that Superman is SUPERMAN. He's not one to start an unnecessary fight. Manhattan also didn't realize that either which is why he was caught off guard by Superman's actions.
Plus this is a much better ending because it wraps up so many peoples stories, settled so many people into the DC universe and the timeline is now fixed.
Well that and the fact that if they actually had manhattan and superman fight it would be a shitshow, seeing how one is invincible and the other is also an invincible god-like being. The only way that would have ended was with people pissed off.
I’m literally the drake “nah. Yes.” Meme today cuz I been seeing other channels cover this story and I told myself I’d wait for Rob to cover it
rob does it best
@@wildcard749 that he does
Same here. It's not official till Rob covers it!
Same!!
Love Rob, but Benny did it better. ONLY because of his final comments. Discussing the meaning of the story.
Correction: Mime & Marionette stayed in DC universe and is raising their daughter there. Sally is Nite Owl & Spectre's daughter. The book mentioned Manhattan would send "a woman who meant a lot to him" Marionette's son, not her daughter. That was fulfilled when he sent Clark to her.
Ok good. His narration made me doubt my memory for a bit.
Sally isn’t the mime and marionette’s kid. Clark is. Dr. Manhattan even says the daughter they have is Anita maez. The child that’s taken by dr Manhattan is Clark,
Thank you for saying this. Hearing that in the video bugged me and was absolutely wrong. Silk and Night owl had a daughter whom I am sure will love having a brother and will guide Clark to be a great Superman.
Yeah, also none of those characters are in the DCU apart from Mime and Marionette. He really needs to fact check these videos, I swear half the time he just skim reads them.
@@lolzmoney6669 yeah I agree. Rorschach , Oz and Manhattan returned to their world. Oz was put in prison while his cat grew up and was apparently a gift to a woman who will later possibly become a villain named Nostalgia to balance out Clark. Balance is a huge thing in the works of DC. Where this is Darkness there is Light. Clark will no doubt go to the DC Universe in time and be the Watchman version of Superman. Rorschah was over Mothman's grave thanking him for what he was trying to do. Manhattan died healing the world and ridding it of nuclear devices then raised the child the Superman was raised and giving the child his power and probably giving him Kryptonian abilities modeled after Superman.
"If reading this now, whether I am alive or dead, you will know truth."
- Rorschach
The ending is an eye-opener, we all need someone or something to be inspire us in life no matter how big or small the event may be ❤️
I think Manhattan gave his powers to this child because he himself knew that he’s capable of doing amazing things. He’s capable of doing heroic things but his detachment from humanity prevented him from giving his gifts to the world to better it. So much so that he left earth to start anew. Now that a child has his abilities, he’s not only whatever the Dr, became, but he has what I would consider the added bonus of being human as well and with that, Clark can use the Dr.’s powers the way he himself wished he could’ve kept doing when he was a Watchmen. NOW WHAT I WANNA SEE IS KID FRANKLIN RICHARDS VS BABY MANHATTAN! Lmao ITS TIME FOR A DEATHBATTTTTTLLLLEEEE! Lol
Reggie did not stay in the DC Universe - he is visiting Byron's grave, Mothman from the Minutemen in his home universe. He will basically lead the way to new, more righteous heroes in the universe (especially with Nostalgia on the horizon).
Would they make Nostalgia a hero? Or a villain, considering that she is obsessed with Adrian Veidt. Maybe could be a young genius that thinks that they could possibly do better? Who knows.
Geoff Johns even confirmed that Hulk is stronger than Doomsday in this issue lol.
It would be harder when doomsday comes back
@@johnlawful2272 No it won't
Richard Ajayi yes it very much would
How???
This book also confirms Superman>>>Hulk and Thor as well as hulk getting killed protecting Superman.
This must mean even the hulk must have known that Superman holds his fiction together
17:05 So we're just skipping over that 2030 "Secret Crisis" that says Superman fights Thor and a 'green behemoth stronger than Doomsday', aka maybe the Hulk, who it also says dies?
That's what I'm saying, I had to tweet and DM him like this is HUGE.
Rob sometimes half-asses his way through vids. Sorry Rob, you know it's true. Never get Rob to be an eyewitness to anything, he would leave out something vital
But if this Green Behemoth turns out to be the Hulk it he might just be immortal always coming back to life after something kills him.
Its just a cute Easter egg nothing more what needs to be said
@@addex1236 we don't Know that yet

Don't bet on it ( I myself came to that conclusion and besides DC has a Thor and who knows they might create another character for that)
@@Dredre1069 sadly, we have to go the long way round
That "maybe the darkness you see part" from superman really made my spine tingle you can see the exhaustion and feeling he has.
I just have to keep coming back to it. I’ve never been so moved by a comic book since watchmen and maybe kingdom come. Geoff really out did him self and this shows he did it with passion.
When you see this at work and decide you'd rather get a low performance rating than wait to watch the video 😂😂
I'm sitting in the machine shop right now watching this 🤣
So. Much. Awesome. This is an ending that I almost couldn't have seen coming (Thanks, Dr. Manhattan. I'm suffering from Future Blindess too,) and his resetting/soft rebooting/setting up future probabilities for the DCU going forward is a very interesting take on the Crisis model that comics have fallen into over the past few years. And his even resetting his origin and upbringing to help him connect better with his humanity and become his world's Superman is a fitting ending to this. Congrats, DC. Well told and well ended.
"I believe in wishes again," damn Dr. Manhattan really changed.
So in a nutshell, Doomsday Clock is one of the best comic events ever?
Everyone: this object it’s identical and it keeps popping up everywhere in time and space. It must mean something but what?
Superman: Who is she. She must be important
I felt like that picture thing didn't make sense. Why would Manhattan keep leaving that thing behind for someone to find over and over again?
@@MrWolfchamp-xi3cu Its a constant. Something that is a part of him and on his mind at all points throughout his Omni-chronal life. ...Its the way you might have something on your mind that keeps popping up, but for him, his mind is all moments all the time. If she is that meaningful, she's on his mind the whole time. The image. Her. The picture is like a byproduct of that. At least, that's my theory. I don't think he was leaving the pictures on purpose. He just kept making them to think about her, then leaving it behind.
@@ObservantDog okay thanks. But if it's just a thought then why can everyone see it and touch it? And if he wasn't leaving it behind on purpose then why wasn't he picking them up.
@@MrWolfchamp-xi3cu Dr. Manhattan can create and destroy matter... its not "just a thought" I mean, he does physically create the photo, as he's thinking about it, he creates it, looks at it, thinks about it, and then he drops it and leaves. Like he did on Mars.
I think that's why are doing it, basically for that reason, because he did it on Mars, and they needed some kind of McGuffin or whatever to tie everything together.
Maybe I missed something though, I dunno. Thats just what I thought was happening.
@@ObservantDog okay thanks. I know he can manipulate matter. But it doesn't make sense why he would leave a trail like that instead of destroying it. It doesn't make sense why he'd leave it in the first place when he could just not make the picture
"What we do in life echoes in eternity"
At the end it looks like Dr. Manhattan wanted someone like him with all of the power in the world to be raised by a loving/nurturing family like the Kents so that lil boy also will turn out to be a good person like Superman despite having god like powers and won't lose his humanity like Dr. Manhattan did with having all of that power.
Your enthusiasm for these comic book stories is so compelling. I cant stay away from this channel.
"Maybe the darkness you see... Maybe it takes everything you have to save your world."
Such. A powerful. Line.
Damn The watchmen show finished up faster than Doomsday clock.
Lol no lieee lol
And it sucked balls
Joker Syniclus big donkey ones too
Joker Syniclus wait, you mean the show right?
I loathe people who're still talking after I say hi yeah the show was well made but like they did so many things wrong with story
This might be the best channel on all YT!!! Thank you so much for doing what you do!!!
I feel like rob is saying korvacs at this point just to spite us
Rob I’m surprised you didn’t mention the “secret crisis” with Thor and the “green behemoth” that’s stronger than doomsday
Yeah if that realy will happen i wonder how those two, if they are those specific characters, manage to land into the DC Universe.
It's Called a Secret Crisis. Like a Mix of Secret wars and Crisis!!!! Maaaaaaan!!!! That's exciting!!!!
crossover woot!!!
I can't wait until 2030
Also this green behemoth who "dies" saving Superman well according to the current run he just will not stay dead. So what does that mean for the Secret Crisis if it happens?
So i really hope that Superman vs Thor and The hulk is real.
Would love to see that, hulk dies saving superman though 😭
Its real. Hulk is stronger than doomsday lol

Beautiful ending and one of very few comics that made me audibly say “wow” at the end.
Ive been waiting for answers😪 I couldn’t comprehend it alone
WatchPeopleDieInside yes
He didn't explain the end properly. ComicExplained get things wrong here.
Glad this was not a delay review but my God I didn't know it's been 3 years for this to end
Jman27 Joestar actually only 2 years
Finally been waiting for this, great narrating bro.
"Clark" is going to be the watchmen universe's superman.
Superman vs Dr Manhattan is like when an unstoppable force meets the very being responsible for its creation.
what does Michael Demiurgos have to do with this? as he was the one to bring everything in to creation.
Yup, superman created a lot of universes , de. Manhattan was just a puppet
@@TrenElZombie wait how can superman creates universe, he can't does that
@@TrenElZombie The universes existed before superman. Each universe bore a superman for balance and stability. The watchman universe had no superman so it created Dr Manhattan to create a superman for the watchman Universe. Technically, they are all puppets.
🤯
The Rock says ..... Finally the book has come back to conclude 😎🤘🙏
Great video your videos are fantastic, you’ve kept me connected to comics I stopped collecting over 20 years ago but still love them so thank you.
Now that I’ve seen the end of Doomsday Clock I just gotta live long enough to see the end of One Piece. Wish me luck.
By that time, one piece might beat superman in comic book sales.
"On July 10th, 2030, the "Secret Crisis" begins, throwing Superman into a brawl across the universe with THOR himself... And a GREEN BEHEMOTH stronger than even DOOMSDAY, who DIES protecting Superman from these invaders."
Are we going to talk about this?!?!
Hulk stronger than Doomsday, biggest joke of the decade.
I'll be almost 50! 😫😫😫
@onyx hulk died protecting Superman though. You know this means whoever did that is beyond Hulk.
Also Thsi book confirms Superman the goat.
Thiers nothing to talk about its an Easter egg nothing more
So 11 more years...
I'll 29 by that time which means I'll probably have little interest on comics by the time it happens
Meanwhile in CWs Crisis... Superman loses hope, and Supergirl is the paragon of hope.... Logic
Lol who cares about CW?
And Batman is an evil recluse, and Batwoman is the Paragon of courage....... WAHMEN
Get a job at CW and come up with something better then.
@@-Trauma. You ok?
@@TobeyStarburst Oh, I get it, you can't read.
Hey Rob,
Thanks for your dedicated time to making these AWESOME narrations! Hands down the Best bro #1
Thank you for doing this Rob
Dr Manhattan figured that the watchmen universe was lacking a Clark Kent superman in the watchman universe so he created a superman to keep the balance in the natural order cause their universe was missing that one thing "Superman"!😎✌🏾
You mean that Clark boy is Dr.Manhattan Superman ? #Forgive my bad english...
@@sayaoki1610 Yes the Boy that showed up at the end is dr Manhattan reincarnated into superman for the watchmen universe.
@@MrCanibum2 Thanks.. thats is super cool... love it bcoz I am a big fan of supes
That's a theory, not a fact... he may be a reincarnated superman with dm powers or he may be a completely different kid who just has his name.....
@@MoMo-bx9gk that's also true. I guess its left up to the reader.🤷🏽♂️
"It all revolves around a Superman, named Clark."
The Watchmen Universe is officially a DC universe. Whatcha bet we start seeing more crossovers?
Could happen. But then, it would have a rather fresh start. New Heroes with Clark(Supermanhattan??) at the top with other heroes following suit cause he inspired them to become heroes. and also the bad Guys. Cause with this new superman there might be a matching bad guy as well.
@@Dazecat11 Well of course but that is also what creates a wholesome universe. The gestalt of DC is described there.
@@DrakeFellwing Yeah. I am curious how things will work out.
@@Dazecat11 Definitely this is going to be a new Era of DC comics it feels like.
Waited so much for this
Glad to see that they wrote Superman true to his greatest power, not to punch things really hard, but rather to see the good in others and yo inspire them
Wow I loved this story and the ending in particular. In a sense Clark is the watchmen universes' version of superman, even having his blue eyes and dark hair. But I can't believe Rob skipped right over the fact that a marvel crossover was hinted at, stating that thor and a green behemoth aka the hulk would be part of it. Damn I can't wait to see what comes next.
So basically, to sum everything up, we're back to Pre-Crisis continuity.
More so pre Flashpoint
Except the terrible LOSH designs
Thank god, new 52 was hard unnecessary.
Blackula TheEvilOyo I liked some ideas of the new 52 and DC you for example I liked the Batman run of Jim being Batman
No not really, pre cresis continuity is now an alternate universe designated earth-1985 , the main universe has yet to be explained since we have the JSA and wonder woman supposedly appearing in ww2 and is the first superhero
Love your vids Comics explained ! ❤
This was great bro.
Who is "Nostalgia"?
And when we will see 3 Jokers?
Very soon my friend
No cap, this made me cry tears of joy because it took so LOOOONG !!!!
Yeah, let's give a kid the powers of a literal god. Certainly nothing can go wrong here.
RIP to whoever is the first kid to pick on him in school for having a dot on his forehead.
I think nothing would happen to the kid who picks on Clark. Because Dr.Manhattan created clark so that he could be a better version of Dr.Manhattan, one that would be more like superman. So, i'm guessing his origin story is going to be similar to Supes. Still, would be pretty satisfying to see a bully being blown to bits.
the kid could literally make the bully and his friends float for a few minutes and clark will have established his dominance
Id say the the kid clark will be noticeably weaker than dr manhattan. Manhattan gifted him "the last of his powers".
However, you are still correct. RIP random school bully.
Amazing Video!
I read it earlier today. It really was amazing. I thought of it as DC showing that no matter what Superman will always be around and a focus of the DC universe. Like they were responding to people claiming Superman is not popular anymore. Also I like the tease of a marvel and dc crossover in 2030.
Everything is back to normal, I literally feel like screaming!
Thats a hell of a way for it to end. Thanks for the coverage Rob
I love this ending. Primarily because it sets up a new Watchmen series and the possibility of Lori, Dan, and their children being folded into the primary DC universe. But there is the possibility that with the arrival of the new Clark there will arise the possibility of new super powered heroes in the watchmen universe.
Is he the Franklin Richards of DC
The possibility of super humans in the Watchmen universe is very likely seeing as Dr. Manhattan gave part of himself to the world before he disappeared.
@@johnlawful2272 No one is like Franklin Richards.
Did you actually skip over the Marvel vs DC crossover tease? 🥺
Capernicus Cosby you do know marvel doesn’t own Thor
@@zoomy7535 If it any other Thor then it would make no sense
Shivan Muthu no but that green behemoth as strong as doomsday definitely has something to do with marvel
Shivan Muthu no but that green behemoth as strong as doomsday definitely has something to do with marvel
Wait are we having another dc vs marvel event?
I waited that long for this thanks DC
Great video rob, keep up the good work. Even though the story took forever the ending seems more then fitting even if it wasn’t what people expected.
Love the doomsday clock story arc.
That spread....I was like. DAM SON THEY ARE BACK! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
