    Hey, so when I switched over my channel from an individual to a brand account, it deleted all my comments. :( So if you see threads where it looks like I replied, but you can't see anything. That's why.

    Wow! I stopped collecting comics back in 1988, and I've regretted it ever since. I've always wanted to start back collecting, but all of these confusing and convoluted storylines are very intimidating. I wouldn't know where to start. Power Man and Iron Fist was always one of my favorite titles.

    Luke cage actually sounds pretty cool. I know he had a Netflix show but I never heard anyone talk about it so I figured he was just some throwaway character.

    I'd like a little video about Civil War 2 so far. Only Marvel comic coming out in my country is Spider-Man and we're still in the Superior Spider-Man arc, so I won't hear about it in a while.

    Question for you Drake. How many groups/ teams has Wolverine been a part of? And exactly how old IS Wolverine, really?

    • @ZachHessEdits
      @ZachHessEdits Před 7 lety +4

      Dr_whats_his_name yes, civil war 2 has nothing to do with the first one. It is about an inhuman that can see the future and Captain Marvel wants to use him to imprison people who "might" commit crimes. Tony Stark is not for this and pointless civil war ensues. Most of it is just sitting around talking. The only times anything happens is a when characters die for no reason.

    • @starpencil
      @starpencil Před 7 lety +1

      so its worthless? and made to piggy back off the movie?

    • @sakuradreamur7955
      @sakuradreamur7955 Před 7 lety +1

      ***** Is Rai really the only relevant character in the Valiant Comic Timeline? That seems like a downer, considering that you made that character seem very interesting from a reader's point of view.

    Hi Drake. Just found your site and this was the first video of yours I have watched. Iam a BIG fan of Black Nerd Andre and found your channel thru him. I have not read comics in awhile but back when I did Starfire was my favorite DC character. Since you asked for idea about videos,heres one. Recently I read an issue of Red Hood And The Outlaws and was COMPLETELY lost and a bit pissed off. Can you make a video explaining how,during the George Perez - Teen Titan era Starfire was a strong,passionate warrior who was extremely loyal to her friends to this new Starfire who seems to be an amnesia riddled slut who doesn't seem to care about loyalty,honor or anything at all. George Perez (who is still my favorite artist,bar none)created a fantastic character that in my absence from comic book collecting has been RUINED and id like to know how and why. Thanks.

      @Calzaki Před 7 lety

      Oh I wasn't saying I don't like your videos. I just find the intros and outros a little conflicting with the rest of the video style which is mostly comic or animation. Maybe I'm confusing you with other channels like game theory when I say I liked it before. It just seems awkward to have 30 second intro, 30 second outro that must take time out to film and looks a bit disjointed from the rest of the piece (to me anyway)
