I honestly really love that Linkara doesn't use the more extreme swear words, makes it easier for me to watch it around my parents.

"We are a bunch of nerds." I almost applauded with laughter at this part. Okay, I totally applauded with laughter at this part.

Douche:How did you find me?!? Linkara:What is it about Magic you people not understand? Everyone to be exact.

I love how linkara turns the argument back around on people

"We are a bunch of nerds" you review comic books and we watch your channel, that is kinda implied already. And we're proud of it!

''What is it about magic that none of you people understand?'' New favourite Linkara line after ''I AM A MAN!!!''

The more I look at which French-Belgium comics have been translated in English, the more I'm baffled. Les Légendaires : a fantastic fantasy story, with lots of comedy, action, drama, and character development. Each new volume ends up top-selling. Not afraid to deal with issues like death, romantic and family relationships, atoning for past crimes, and even killing main characters. Manga-styled, in order to attract a broad audience. No official translation exists. Walter Melon : a series that relies entirely on the complexity of its dialog, filled with intricate puns and elevated language. Uses a speech figure known as "amphigouri" (writing a text as voluntarily unintelligible and burlsque) that doesn't even have an English equivalent. Yet some nutball thought to himself "Hey, this would the perfect series to adapt for an English-reading audience". This is unfair. But yeah, no wonder you can't find a good European comic to review. It seems very few of them get exported. Which is a bit sad, really...

To be fair, the Antikythera Device is theorised as the oldest computing device, credited as having been made in Ancient Greek times. So yeah, I can see why they said "first all-electronic computers."

Linkara has to be only person who can actually outsmart Dochy.

Hey! Hey! Lewis! Did you know that the writer of "Batman: Fortunate Son" is currently in jail for charges of child pornography possession? I'm as in shock as you may be!

Oh god it brings back memories when i see the old "Channel Awesome" chat. So many enjoyably flamewars was had there :')

I've read The Maxx #1. The female social worker living with Maxx blames rape victims for acting stupid. Yeeeaaahh..... -_-

Douchey McNitpick: How did you find me? Linkara: What is it about magic that none of you people understand? (Beatdown) Me:...Can I learn that magic?

"I hope to review a Shadow comic in 2011." Eight years later.

Going back and re-watching these. So much fun! Also, the one about the Kool-Aid Man is still wrong. In a vacuum, the only way to transfer heat away from an object is for that object to radiate (much less efficient than conduction or convection), so the Kool-Aid Man wouldn't freeze due to the absence of heat for quite some time. Linkara is correct that the lack of air pressure would have the greatest effect. However, since there wouldn't be enough heat energy present for the entire batch of liquid to boil/evaporate, it would both evaporate AND freeze in a vacuum. You'd end up with a chunk of ice (with other solids) and some water vapor. There are some videos of this happening floating around here, I'm sure (look for water under a vacuum if interested).

I gotta say, the single shoulder pad has always been a character design pet peeve of mine. Until this video, I had no idea there actually was practical application to having just one shoulder pad, and I'd argue that most character designers are the same way; it seems so often that so many characters are given one shoulder pad not because it's practical, but because asymmetry is kewl!

2019 and Linkara still hasn’t reviewed a Shadow comic lol.

linkara is happy like a rum without a ruf

No, Douchey does now that he's in the plothole removing mistakes in place of the Nostalgia Critic, who was living in an alternate world where his mother killed herself while he was doing a movie with Arnold Schwartzenagger and took revenge on the movie industry by making sucky remakes of good movies.

While nobody made a general-purpose mechanical computer until the 90s, navies (and presumably others) were fielding specialized analog computers in the first half of the 20th century. Specifically, navies built computers to help aim their guns; they couldn't calculate the physics on the fly, but they could encode the solutions in the shape of an object.

10:37 At the time the comic was printed, the existence of Colossus was generally unknown and unmentioned, even in books on computer history. Since the British continued to use it for code-breaking well into the Cold War, it was a classified secret until the mid-70s (which is also why no WW2 documentaries made before that period mention the Engima code-breaking at all, it was classified). On the other hand, the American ENIAC computer was displayed for the press in 1946, and was subsequently recorded in history books as the first digital computer, which wasn't quickly corrected once Colossus was de-classified. Thus Colossus' existence was pretty obscure knowledge until the internet made it easier to fact-check your history books. In short, you and the comic can both be forgiven for not knowing this :D

17:00 coming from a guy born in South Africa, I side with you on that. I too am biased on American superhero comic books myself. I found channels such as yours, ComicPop & Comicstorian refreshing because of that. 19:20 my stance on this is more coming from some (and probably a most alarming) bit of OCD. Whenever I see a warrior with just one pauldron, my brain immediately goes "why does this guy only have one shoulder covered, and not the other?" I saw it a lot on the Clone Wars on Captain Rex (I'm sure there were other Clone Trooper captains as well, but its just too much to keep track of) to be specific. Pedantic, yes, but still, I felt confused.

4:56, screw up within the screw up video, (in douchey mcnitpick voice) Mark Wahlbergs brother was Donnie, not Danny.

Schrodinger is also a character from hellsing who's a cat-boy.

TRIAAAL OF THE DRAGOOON!!!

You make a good point. Those swear words could be said, but you don't think the quality of the show would match those swear words. I understand completely.

All the other comments here have covered everything I would want to say, except for one thing: The way Robby says "Fluffy!" in the Charmin commercial is cute as hell. Thank you.

Robby the Robot even showed up on Columbo... Yeah, that episode was stupid.

Linkara is hilarious! I could watch his videos all day! :-)

Uhh as for the English computer... that was still No 2. "Konrad Ernst Otto Zuse was a German civil engineer, pioneering computer scientist, inventor and businessman. His greatest achievement was the world's first programmable computer; the functional program-controlled Turing-complete Z3 became operational in May 1941." Colossus did not go active until 43. ;)

Linkara 2010: I have made it no secret that I am a capitalist. Linkara 2022: It’s not enough for big, greedy corporations to make money. Today, you have to make ALL THE MONEY or else you’re somehow doing it wrong.

2023 and there's probably still people complaining about Linkara disliking The Maxx

Forbidden Planet is my favorite Shakespeare movie.

Dreamwave? Sounds like an Autobot version of Soundwave, which makes its all the more funny since they made a Transformers comic

As always, fun watching your vids Mr. Linkara, thanks for the upload. :)

I like the audio and lighting for this video, and you can tell there's improvement. From here on out, the quality was going to be ALOT better than all the pervious videos and would stay that way going forward.

In One of my college classes, we are learning about the history of computers and the internet starting with information about Charles Babbage and the Coleuses so it was A great surprise to see Linkara talk about it in 9:26

...Hoo boy. Don't let any of the shodingers cat (cant spell) people anywhere near Virtues Last Reward. We might all pay. There is a grossly oversimplified version in it and it's used as an excuse to make a bunch of cat puns. Plus I'm not sure if it has relevance to the story. I think they used it to try to explain some stuff in the game, but I could just remember wrong.

Hell stopped being a swear word after it was in a couple animated Disney movies.

Anyone else love how backhanded many of these are? I do.

We're still waiting for that shadow review of yours... and we're happy to keep waiting.

... Were you Imitating a relative with that stereotypical Midwestern accent? If not, I'm sorry, but it is just too damn perfect.

Re the 'Room/Roof' accent, I think it's the part of the Canadian accent that has been formed from Scottish origins. Minnesota is close enough to Canada to make this theory feasible, that it (the Minnesotan) accent has been influenced by Scots as well.

i love the screw up number 2 and how liquids in vacuum dont freeze, becau eto freeze, they need air pressure

Worst job in the universe? *sassy black woman voice* boy! I would take yo job in a heartbeat!

Ten years of linkaras first batch of mistakes

the title card looks like HiimDaisy made it

Another problem with the lack of air (or anything else in space) is that there's nothing for him to transfer excess body heat to.

If you can't laugh at yourself, what right do you have to laugh at other people? love when people do these types of videos.

While I thought #11 was an understandable and altogether mild mistake when I first watched the Ultimates episodes, I'm glad to see it was eventually addressed. Forgive the flattery, but as far as I'm concerned, you're no idiot; Atop the Fourth Wall is as perfect as Robby.

Wow Linkara I thought I knew everything about computers and their history but I didn't wow you taught me something about my favorite tech thanks I really appreciate it.

I'm also a Minnesotan, I hope to come across you some day randomly. :)

i never caught the "only 2 seasons in Minnesota" joke until now XD

That thumbnail reminds me strongly of something: trial of tHE *DRAGOOOOOOOOON!!!*

Your mistake with the Super Cruiser is still a big goof XD. The thing blatantly has an arseload of windows on the back section. Not exactly common features of moving vans, those. And silly people, the Kool-Aid Man's magic forcefield that keeps him from spilling stuff out his top when he does stunts would protect his contents from the vacuum of space! ;) :P

The intro got much funnier after I just interpreted Douchy as being Doug.

In 2018 the critic went a whole year without dropping the F-bomb

the first computer i think generally considered to count was made in ancient rome which i think calculated the days or something like that ran on complicated gears so the first computers did not use electricity as it was not made yet

linkara was the thumbnail inspired by the trial of the dragon scene in the persona 4 hiimdaisy comic?if so than thats fuckin awesome

"We are a bunch of nerds" I think I might've found my place in the world.

So...Lewis, you think we'll get a 3rd screw-ups installment in the future? Maybe this year?

Well I remember in Chemistry Class in High school we actually did a lab with water in a vacuum jar. Where at room temperature (Because well, classroom after all) and it being a Vacuum the water did boil... and froze mid boiling. Wild stuff to see happen right in front of your eyes.

I was expecting Douchy to say “It’s fuckup you fuckup” I’ve seen the NC F Ups vid too many times 😂

The Happening joke was awesome!

Kenshiro with one shoulder pad will always look harder than the 2 padded one

For anyone who is interested, Colossus is on display at Bletchley Park here in England. I've seen it, it's beautiful ^_^

30:04 Of course!Don't you know anything about scie-er,I mean,magic?!

I'm not even old enough to remember NKOTB and even I know that Marky Mark was a member

Oh yes just because making a living using a computer means you should totally be an expert in the history of computer technology. Just like me being an artist means that I should know the entire history of canvases and where they were first used.

Once again have you seen the animatrix what did you think of the second rennassiance

For the electric computer, according to "The first electronic computer" by Alice Burks, the British computer (called Colossus and made by Alan Turning) was made in 1943, while the first electric computers were made in the late 1930s (1937) by J.V. Atanasoff, in Iowa, USA. So the comic was correct in the country, but was a decade off. However, Atanasoff failed to finish this, so his student Clifford Berry finished the computer in 1941. It wasn't programmable, but was still able to preform 29 different equation with 29 unknowns, simultaneously. It was impressive at the time. I'm sure other people said this, but I didn't see it so I felt I had to say this.

And how would shoulder pads apply for FIREARMS? What, are they supposed to help brace against recoil? Then why aren't the guns held in a braced position for those stupid looking pads to work?

Why don't you do a top 10 or 5 how image comics universe could have work and the changes they need to do so.

Shoulder pad on one shoulder makes no sense. Yeah, it looks cool as heck, but it's also signaling your enemies which side they should attack you from. Freddie Prinze Jr. Said it best as Iron Bull in DAI, and you don't argue with Iron Bull

Linkara, just because you fuck up once in a while doesn't make you less of an awesome dude ^^ We all fuck up sometimes ;) But still a funny video as always

Mark and Donnie were known to work together in the early days of the group, so he could have been a member breifly. Confusing Previous Statement I know his brother was and he did help them get their start. So he could have been at the very least.

Love the Hiimdaisy reference on the thumbnail

How did you find me? Was it about magic that none of you people understand?

Still waiting on that shadow comic :p

Yay! I was one of the people pointing out the use of 1 shoulder pad :D

the funny thing is, he actually pronounced 'room' and 'roof' in a way people wanted him to in the intro to it.

The "rurf" thing I can understand I my self live in MN but I've never heard people say "rum" instead of room.

Despite being French and loving French-Belgium comics, I have a hard time thinking of really bad FB comics... Especially ones that have been translated in English. But I recently thought of something : early Tintin. The two I'm thinking about are ones that I had when I was younger and really didn't like back then either : Tintin in the Congo and Tintin in America. The first one is nothing but racist jokes (well, it is from the 30s, but still... and it's like The Black Island where there's a debate over wether or not it's racist : Tintin in Congo IS racist) and animal cruelty all throughout. and Tintin being glorified as a perfect hero and getting out of situations solely by incredible luck. The second ones is using more stereotypes than downright racism (well, it's still a bit there), which some may argue is part of the fun with Tintin. But it's still a whole comic of Tintin getting out of situations via Deus ex Machinas, being glorified as perfect hero that can never fail or be wrong, and suddenly has the aiming skills of Lucky Luke... Except Lucky Luke was ironicallyt never THAT lucky and was never racist despite relying completely on stereotypes. Also, the fact that Snowy and Tintin can talk to each other is just weird to me, but that also happened in early Spirou comics, and it stopped happening quickly, but still, it's weird. And I never really liked the dialogue in Tintin, but that's just me, and I don't know how it is in English. ...Drat, it feels like I'm writing a review instead of you... Well, still, I think early Tintin is a good place too look if you're looking for bad European comics that have been translated in English. Just a suggestion, it's up to you of course ^^

It's perfectly acceptable for a giant anthropomorphic glass pitcher of Kool-Aid to smash through solid bricks without shattering into pieces, but *not* acceptable for him to freeze in space. Okay...

2:20 TRIAL OF THE DRAGONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Ah... I love hindsight. Patreon has pretty much neutralized the "I only review bad comics and mostly american superhero ones" argument.

anybody know what the new at4w end credit song is called?

anyone else find it amusing how he said room and roof like they want him to in the question.

"we are abunch of nerds" and damn proud of it

Ooooh... right. Sorry, I forgot to check the comments on the cat thing. My bad.

You know, Linkara always says he doesn't like swearing in his videos, but he does say a few choice words from time to time. I do know he's said 'hell' at least once and I'm pretty sure he's said 'damn' at least once. I'm just pointing this out because Nitpick was bitching about it.

I love your thoughts ^_^ hell yeah man

Is the Shadow like the Silver Shroud?

While I am a socialist and support taxes, it does get kinda annoying to have characters like Crowe say that stuff is free in Europe. We are most definitely _not_ a socialist utopia. We pay taxes to make all those things work and there are a lot of people who complain about it and even some who would rather have it privatized like in America. I think those people are idiots, but they still exist.

This is my first vid of yours, and I know I'm in good hands when there was Weird Al in it.

honest shoidingers cat is fairly simple when you get right down too it the thought test goes like this shoidinger puts both a bowl of radioactive liquid and a cat into a lead box and seals it while said cat is seal inside the box it is in a super state where it is both alive and dead until the box is opened fusing both states of the cat into one, either alive or dead

23:03 when you say it like that it sounds like actual word magic

27:09 - it also means that humans would boil to death in space iirc.

Wow, the Dreamwave Transformers comics sold way more then I would have expected.

Did you ever get to the shadow review? Or should we consider the crossover with film brain the review?
