It was refreshing to see Magog expressing regret instead of just being a cliché villain. This story is really great.

@travisbewley7084 2 жыл бұрын

That scene was remarkably mature. I often pointed to it when I discuss what makes a comic "Mature" and especially when people are talking about the Snyder films.

@NineToFiveGamerUC0079 Жыл бұрын

@@travisbewley7084 it'd be mature to not always find some way to slag Synder when the conversation or topic has nothing to do with him. As annoying as Synderfans can be, the people who absolutely make it a point to slag off him or his movies any chance they can get are just as obnoxious.

@travisbewley7084 Жыл бұрын

@@NineToFiveGamerUC0079 Snyder just happens to be the torch holder for edgyness that thinks it's way more mature then it really is. Befor Snyder it was Miller and Millar. For all the edgyness that Liefeld brought he never passed it off as more then it was. So talks of maturity in comics will naturally involve the biggest train wreck currently and few train wrecks can match the Snyderverse.

Love your narration. It’s perfectly and clearly enunciated. Also, I was expecting a brutal and violent outcome in the storyline such as that in Jupiter's Legacy, and I'm glad that didn't happen. I'm glad its all positive vibes and rationality in this comic, especially admirable are Batman and Shazam. And yeah, the art is really fantastic!

That’s why this book is so great. Just like tons of Easter Eggs of all these random DC characters, some just thrown into the background of a fight scene. I looked in the Kingdom Come bonus material where Alex Ross breaks down all the characters on every page, that is supposedly Peacemaker II, the next generation of Peacemaker.

Hi, first of all, I want to say, thank you, thank you, thank you! I have never read this story before, and you did an awesome job and storytelling! The main reason that I have not been able to read the stories because I’m blind so therefore I have no idea about these comics that are out here and the awesome stories that have been written. I used to read comic books when I was a kid when I had eyesight and then, as I got older, I lost my sight! I have not physically read a comic book since 1987! So I hope you continue to do what you do because I will definitely turn other blind people on to this channel so they can hear the great storytelling that you offer! Thank you again. 1:13:33

Great job! But there was 1 mistake. The fight scene with Shazam and Superman. When he kept saying shazam, he wasn't turning back and forth between man and God. If you look closely, you see shazam uses his super speed to move away and dodge the lightning blast. He was just calling this lightning to hit superman since magic hurts him and this lightning is magic. But then the last time he says shazam, superman uses his super speed first to grab shazam and hold him still so that the lightning hits them both and then he finally changes back to Billy. And superman has now taken control of the situation.
