Hoping that kingpin running for Mayor in the MCU can lead to this event. I love how this is a villain that can be so personal but also so broad. He can be a villain to spider man and daredevil and still threaten and power over all superhero. And he doesn’t even have super powers

Kingpin saga if it set up right can save the MCU. Because they need a new saga after Thanos one which they havent been able create since then. They tried with this convuluted Kang/Loki/Strange/ Wanda multiverse or whatever they are trying to aim for. I dont think they even know what they're shooting for. But I truly see an opportunity with a Kingpin arc.

26:50 I think Crossbones is one of my favorite comic villains. They really brushed over him in the movies. He typically plays a larger role in videogames I've noticed

I just wanted to say that the way you consistently talk about comics is like tapping a high pressure tank without a valve and I've always loved that man.

This is a great story! I love this comic issue. Love the channel and keep them coming❤

The way you narrate all this is amazing! I love your content! Greetings from Germany.

Who ever edited this, did an amazing job. I didn't even realize it was a few videos put together until I read the comments.

Oh this was very good thanks Rob!❤

Yes, read the Daredevil. I cant buy as many comics nor have the time so i rely on your channel to keep updated and excited.

As a Wolverine fan, I'm more surprised the purple man took control of a Ghost Rider....

Oh you should definitely read Zdarsky's Daredevil run! You have to read it to the end though. It's long and this happens in the middle of it. But it's soooooo good.

No way Shocker would have been able to take out Darkhawk and the poor guy didn't even get a mention from Rob that he was there.

1:09 where youa re discussing a Rhino redemption bit, there was a fun christmas bit that included Rhino confronted by The Punisher in war journal #26 if i remember correctly. Just aa cute whimsical one off between Rhino and Frank where we see Rhino's humanity and humility.

Long form breakdowns?? Let's go!!!!

What a Great Video ❤!

An inhibitor collar picked by a paper clip? They sure don't make them like they used to.

Nice video man. You won a new subscriber. I would love if you do the Daredevil The Fist Arc Video

If Fisk has enough will power to resist purple man, then wouldn’t Captain America be able to do the same? Just the part about him walking into Avengers tower and ordering them to kill themselves

I have to admit, I loved the X men side story of this where he dukes it out against Emma Frost.

Late to the video..... but yes , Vol. 6 & Vol. 7 of Chip Zdarsky DD run was a perfectly weaved tell of dark, gritty and well thought out most definitely worth a read

You even explained why Kingpin would be able to overcome Echo trying to "heal" his mind.

As much as I get what you're saying, I still think Steve would have found a way to make them delete that video. That's basically the difference between him and Tony Stark, despite being a big name hero he still gets people on an entirely different level.

Woverine, Ghost Rider, and The Hulk were 3 of an alternate Fantastic Four from the 1980s (along with Spiderman).

Been waiting for this drop from you 😂

Yes, you should read the last Daredevil run it was great and something different from past DD stories. Would love to watch u cover it in your channel.

I always found the public in the Marvel universe to be particularly stupid. Wilson Fisk, who is known as the Kingpin, arrested multiple times, in the line of sights of cops and superheroes....elected for Mayor?

Agreed, especially the fact that they cheered for Hydra Cap when he was caught pretending to be Captain Krakoa and was discovered to be the one thatplanted that bomb at the university to blame the mutants, you know forgetting a few years back how he became a fascist dictator and toook over America making people Hail Hydra in class and stuff. They cheered because, for some reason they like the nazi clone of Captain America and hate mutants that much which at this point doesn't make I can understand hating Magneto, Apocalypse and other evil mutants but the whole mutant population and cheering for the fascist nazi clone? WTF?

You’re doing the lords work, great job here. Thank you

Next time you need something to cover...how about The Rippaverse?

“Should I be reading Daredevil?” Short answer: yes, obvs. Long answer: Chip Zdarsky just finished his run, and having followed it month-to-month, it’s a great story IMO. A big highlight for me was DEFINITELY Elektra taking up the mantle as The Woman Without Fear. Incredible artwork, and powerful story. There’s a new run of Daredevil that just started a few months ago, written by Saladin Ahmed & art by Aaron Kuder. Good so far, I’m enjoying it, though I’m really missing Marco Checchetto’s artwork too. That man has a GIFT.

Hey Rob, I’m trying to streamline my approach to reading comics by going digital. I have enough paperback volumes and omnibus’ to fill a small library by now and my wife is not digging the idea of adding to it. What’s your recommendation as far as digital apps/services?

If I can't live under the security of Dooms iron fist, then I'd settle for living in Fisk's NY...

Your videos keep getting better! Mad respect for your consistency Keep up the awesome work, it's truly impressive

Wonder if to this day did Rob ever finish reading Chip Zdarsky’s Daredevil & found out definitively why Electra shares the red horns with Matt & where Matt is in current continuity

Well, the MCU's definitely using this later. Matt's gonna be pissed when Fisk wins. In fact, I cant wait to see how they'll do it. The Netflix shows are in the MCU timeline now. So, Fisk's crimes have to be common knowledge in New York.

This is such a good idea but they really drop the ball on the delivery of this story.

One of the most feared, dangerous and powerful crime lords in the Marvel Universe, usually depicted as New York City's crime overlord, the Kingpin was introduced as an adversary of Spider-Man, but later went on to be the archenemy of Daredevil, as well as a recurring foe of the Punisher,and his adoptive daughter Echo. Kingpin is a great adversary.

Do you still do the beyond omega level series? I really loved that one.

"I love Captain Carrot. Captain Carrot is a super bunny"- Rob, as often as possible

Despite being fully capable of copying the fighting style of Battroc the Leaper you still rarely see Taskmaster jumping around though... That's kind of a missed opportunity.

I never followed Daredevil or Kingpin much in comics, but they have grown in me. This sounds like an awesome Kingpin series. Love the push now for them & more "street level heroes" in MCU.

I would love do see a (Harrison Ford) Thunderbolt Ross after he becomes Red-Hulk vs. (Vincent D'onofrio) Kingpin presidential debate in the MCU.

How to fix the MCU… They all need to listen to Rob

Kingpin was originally a Spider-man villain NOT a Daredevil villain. His 1st appearance was in Amazing Spider-man 50.

"Sure, you being a dick probably had something to do with it" LOL

This guy is so enthusiastic 😂😂🤣🤣😅😅

I think it's funny that when super hero's are pulled from an alternate universe, there is always versions somewhere that will just follow a criminal into anything

37:11 Yeah. Cap is better when he’s operating at a high level instead of just being a shining beacon.

You should read Daredevil! Marvel Knights is also a good read! None of them remember their identities..but I don't know if those issues run concurrently with Devil's Reign. I do have some of The Devil's Reign comics and the stories seem to be connected....

Marvel's Champons is really fun imo

1:44:37 I REALLY wish they didn’t stop all of The Hand Vs The Fist writing before they were able to pull in the other high level martial artists & a few X folk.

Elektra being Daredevil is like Dr. Oc being spiderman. Way more efficient and brutal.

They need a DeerDevil parody series.

I really, REALLY need to see more coverage of the Miles comics

Daredevil and Elektra: Red First Saga is AMAZING! Please cover it!

Quote from Starship Troopers Violence is the Supreme authority from which all other authority is derived

Rhinos redemption arc started in the miles morales run thus isnt a random thing hes shown to not be completely evil

0:36 You might want to refresh your memory banks Rob- Kingpin was originally a Spider-Man villain, although admittedly he's made his biggest impression as a Daredevil foil.

The only reason Kilgrave hasn't used his powers to Thanos a continent for funsies is that he's much too sadistic for that. If you convinced or manipulated this guy to wipe out a town he wouldn't just tell everyone to kill themselves, he'd probably have them climb the tallest building and hold on until they fell off or something. If people needs to die, he wants to see them suffer, he wants to feel in control of their deaths in a real and personal manner. And of course, he wouldn't just do that on his own because he's way too selfish to just wipe out a bunch of people for no reason, he'd set up shop in some mansion somewhere and then destroy the lives of everyone living nearby, one family at a time, over decades. He's got the manipulative powers of a god but he loves using them to fry ants with a magnifying glass, in this way he's a nice counterpoint to both Otto Octavius and Wilson Fisk. They spend the entire series accusing each other of thinking small and not seeing the whole picture, while Purple Man is nothing but a glorified plot device. He's thinking smaller than most.

I love that this references Emperor Doom!

they're already setting this up in some kind of way for the mcu with kingpin running for mayor at the end of echo and then apparently the daredevil series continuing right into spiderman 4. even if they do a more grounded version with just spiderman and daredevil going against fisk and some controlled villains of the two were in for a banger

1:08:31 I'd love to see Viv in live action! Her dog, brother, and her are such cool characters

Please Cover The Uncanny X-Force story. It's my favorite Marvel Story and has my favorite Marvel Characters in it (Deadpool, Psylocke & Wolverine) you mentioned it and it's a firm yes from me if that means anything lol. Love your videos. Been a fan since you did the Mr. Sinister background back in the day.

Second time listening to this ✌🏿

Love your content, man. Long time consumer. One tiny thing that the historian in me HAS to say (and I’m sorry): J. Edgar Hoover didn’t leave the FBI. He ran it until he died. His assistant, and longtime partner, Clyde Tolson, is widely believed to have removed Hoover’s “black files” from his personal office safe before anyone else could get at them. No one knows what became of those files. Also, the main reason he didn’t leverage those files for more power was twofold- one, he had all the power he needed, or wanted. Two, it’s been quietly confirmed that various mafia organizations had either photos or film (or both) of Hoover engaging in homosexual activity. For decades, Hoover refused to acknowledge, and actively insisted, that there was no such thing as “organized crime” in America. The only plausible reason for this was that they had compromising info on him. So the King of “dirty knowledge” got “dirty knowledged” by the Mob. At that point, Hoover just sat on the massive power he already had and didn’t reach for more. That said, I’m off for more CE content! You’re like Wolverine, man. You’re the best there is at what you do.
