You know what is funny about this storyline? The fact that as this is a alternative timeline in the marvel universe, it puts into perspective the whole story of apocalypse in that comic arc involving the young Thor when he first met him. More specifically apocalypses' contact with the celestial technology and the agreement he made with that celestial in exchange for learning how to use the tech he found. It feeds into the whole psychology of apocalypse and his ideology of survival of the fittest and why it made sense. The celestials basically nurtured that ideology in him for the purposes of guiding the new evolving humans into battling each other all the while becoming stronger to the point they can protect the celestial egg inside the earth.

Yes- good observations. Add to all that how Hickman (in S.H.I.E.L.D.) had the Brotherhood of the Shield cut a deal with the Celestials to save the Earth waaay back in ancient China. They put their embryo in the Sun instead of the Earth. SO much of modern Marvel is derived from this great series- with many of the best writers using it as inspiration.

it seriously sucks so much that he only does covers now

This trilogy is my favorite Marvel story. Alex Ross is a genius. To put together every single aspect of the MU at the time it was beautiful. Characters that you haven't seen since you were a kid become relevant, criminals that always get caught have their potential shown. I watch this every time Rob puts it up. I wish he would get it together and do Universe and ParadiseX!!!

I mean, killing Death, then finding out that wasn't a good thing ? So they had to make a new Death from the obscure character from one issue of Two In One. The writers really knew their Marvel history.

Lol seeing this written out this way... it's just like The End Of Death in the SCP universe.

14:18 I like when rob gets hyped about stories "oooh man! Guys wait, just wait until...!!!" LMFAO

Reed Richards: "It's finally over." Doctor Strange: "We're in endgame now."

I was so hyped on this whole series back then (universe x and paradise x as well). The way they connected the history of marvel comics and provided an explanation for it all. The wait in between each issue was agonizing!

Thank you so much for doing this. Earth X is one of my all time favorites and really enjoyed seeing Alex Ross'artistic vision of a dystopian future Marvel Universe - kind of like the Marvel version of what he did with, DC's "Kingdom Come"

This story is my fav of all-time. I freaked out at some of these revelations. I hope he did the other two stories. I loved all of the little details. Like Skull riding in MODOKs chair? Damnnnn!

I'm sure Iceman must go to Chicago for Winter vacation

Please please please do Universe X and Paradise X! Yes, BOTH!

Things were already super crazy ... and then he says "and this is where things really begin to get crazy"

I loved the Earth X Trilogy. It was just so breathtaking.

Yes do the damn videos already, I feel like I've been on a cliffhanger since you first released this lol

I’m sad and this is lowkey the only thing that makes me happy thanks rob

Wish Kevin feige would make earth x a trilogy movie. This would be the biggest movie ever in the mcu. It's a great story line with all the greatest characters in the marvel universe. I remember collecting this entire series connecting the covers to make the most beautiful poster, and Alex Ross's art is so magical. It would make a great movie. It's a great comic book saga. I love the end when black bolt screams norrin to come bring galactus and devour the celestials. Just amazing.

Four years later I’m still waiting, I’ve read universe, paradise, and marvels x. And while I enjoy a lot of parts of the three(ask me and I’ll give details) I do admit the stories on the whole can be confusing especially with mephisto’s plan over universe and paradise.

I found this video because Jim Krueger himself recommended it! Really great job, and you sound much better than most out there. Consider me a new subscriber :D

PLS DO UNIVERSE AND PARADISE X! THIS STORY WAS SO GOOD!

I listen to these videos every single day on the way to work/on the way home. Others listen to music. I listen to this golden voice lol. Don't stop Rob, your videos are what got me back into reading comics. Never stopped liking them, just stopped reading. You've given that back to me and I appreciate you for that.

I met Jim Krueger, the writer of the series, back in 2001 at the Chicago Comic-con and he was a real awesome guy. He signed all my Earth X and Universe X comics that were out at the time. Also, you seem to think that Skull gave Cap visions but that's Spiders-man doing that. The Skulls powers are analogous to The Mule from Issac Asimov's Foundation series. He doesn't control your thoughts but your emotions and can basically nail them in place.

I’ll never forget picking up a earth x comic as a kid and it totally blew my 11 year old mind. Never got around to reading the entire series though so thank you for this!

Enjoy? Bro I love your content. The more u research, the more u give us comic geeks to feed on. Keep doing what you're doing!! From a genuine fan

Of course we would like more of Earth X

Man rob, I love these compilation videos! I was always so lost before. Thanks for all you do.

Once again I gotta thank the hell out of u Rob. Earth X was a great original story that i really enjoyed and had never heard of so probably would have never read. This is why this channel is so dear to me. Love ya a bunch buddy!

Yes to both please!!! Also have you thought of releasing just the audio of these videos as a podcast? I would listen to listen to them at work in a heartbeat!

Man, I so love these! I love how you go back and bring up all things that are relevant. Yes please, cover all the things!

Bro i remember watching this a year ago and absolutely begging for paradise and universe X and im still waiting what u doing

Yes I want to see both paradise X and universe X

Hey Rob I've never commented on your stuff before but I am a major fan and love the comic histories especially your delivery of some of these elegant but convoluted stories in a way that I can digest in an hour and a half! I'm not sure if you did Universe acts and Paradise acts but I sure hope so I'll be looking for them

Such a great retelling. Really liked some of the redesigns. I Also legit thought the the Skull was Franklin and no one could see for some reason.

Insane regeneration factor? Silly motivation? Likes to wear red and black? Wants to die? I wonder... 🤔 😂

No, read Marvels X.

Rob thanks for your channel brother. Your insight on comics is awesome and you've really evolved as a storyteller. Keep it up

When it comes to Blackbolt I'd argue there might not be as much buffing and nerfing of his powers in terms of their individual use (not their upper limits where he can break a god) if you consider projecting your voice. Actors can use their diaphragm and stance to help get their voice to carry around an auditorium even as a whisper, it is louder and audibly distinct but its still a whisper. Id argue in the individual instance where decimated that area with a whisper he made that whisper carry by essentially pushing that whisper out. Love the compilation videos though been watching them non stop lately thank you for doing these :).

Came back to rewatch this 3 years later. Please go back and do Universe X and Paradise X!

Yes Rob, more please! Love your long videos! It makes my work day tolerable! :-)

I LOVE Earth X. It's the first comic series I ever read. Thanks for covering it!

Yoooo this is one of the coolest stories I never knew about please do the other two!

Rob, I'd love for to see you do "Paradise X" & "Universe X." I listen to your channel all the time while I'm driving, (I'm a trucker) and it keeps my mind occupied on the miles. Plus it keeps me up to date on stuff I've missed over the years.

Wow!! I heard of this story for a long time but I never really been a comic person and start read each one. Thank you very much in explaining everything that has happened in part 1 of the trilogy and I definitely want to hear about Universe X and Paradise X :-D

I was waiting for this. I love the complete videos, thanks rob.

"It's the saddest thing to see a person who exists, but doesn't really live." Oof. Too close to home.

@Robcorps...I love what you do..Everytime, I listen to these comics..You make them seem that much more exciting..I grew up watching Spiderman, X Men, & Justice League you take me back to my child hood everytime that I tune in..You're the best Rob..Definitely, get me through tough times..

This is one of my absolute favorites. Great video.

I remember Gray Gargoyle from EMH. You're right on the money with his powerset.

Man I absolutely love your channel keep an coming big guy .😁

Just seeing this now. Incredible video. Love your passion!

This was amazing you should do it definitely do the rest of the X Universe

Fricking ayyyyyy homie. New movie! Amazing. Love the vids man keep em up.

At this point I would listen to Rob explain insect’s. Not Ant Man, but actually insects. Love the content.

Love new format. Your channel is the best.

Definitely should do universe and paradise x, watched a ton of your vids for the last few years, love your content, and this the first time I have commented ever. That’s how much I want you to continue this! Thanks Rob! Also since I am commenting might as well toss in, your Rob Core rings look cool as hell.

Thank you for another amazing video comic daddy

Thank you and hope you continue with the next installment of the storyline.

I love the full Comp videos but get sad that it's the only content put out that day I love having something new to get me through my workday

THESE VIDEOS GIVE ME LIFE :D THANK YIU FIR ALL OF THESE UPLOADS

Well damn Rob, that was pretty epic and I'm not usually a Marvel guy myself. Awesome!

The most amazing recap of my favorite story.

I really line this format. You tell the stories complete instead of one by one. It makes it harder to follow one by one. Kepo it this way or make them like this after you're done with them one by one. 👍👍👍

14:31 I've watched this video over 100 times easily no lie & 3 years later, it's June 5th 2021 & this is STILL on one the funniest threats/reactions/jokes Rob has ever blessed us with💯😂🤣 straight outta old school 90s wrestling, 'If i see a Galactus panel pop up on here 🤦🏾‍♂🤬 Maaaann ur gonna be in world of hurt 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾' 😭😭😭😭😭❤❤❤💯💯

Yes to both of the remaining X stories. I've read them, they're amazing, and I'd love more comic fans finding out about them.

Thank u 4 sharing your knowledge and love for the stories.

Please do both I listen to these at work every day for 8 hours I haven't read any marvel or DC and have learned a whole lot from you

This was dope! I hope you can do Universe X 1 day

It’s crazy how one messed up universe of MARVEL folklore would end up spanning an amazing trilogy of this crazy series. This is NUTS, DUDE!

This is one of my favorite stories!Thanks

Please continue this series! 🔥🔥🔥

hey Rob! any news on paradise X and universe X ? keep being awesome

This was awesome glued to This video

Loved this, please do Universe and Paradise X next

Please do universe and paradise X. I've been watching all your full story series on marvel comics and wish there was more! Please! More content! Hahaha hope your doing well!

Thanks for doing this! I haven’t read this in years either and totally forgot about most of the plot. Now I need to find my collection of Earth X, I don’t know where it’s been hiding.

Thank you for the video! You friends are all super awesome! Oh, moments in this video are sad.

Man i just want to say your a great story teller,i own all the X comics, read them many times, but you have helped fill in so much so please do the rest, I want to under the hole story

This comic looks incredibly beautiful, it really gives me sandman vibes for some reason.

Dude, it's been a long time. Do them already! Everyone wants it!

Just bought the trade paper back and read it, then I watched your breakdown, I loved this series

Thank you for allowing me to finally hear this story. When I was a kid I picked up a issue because I thought the cover was cool but it didn’t really have much story inside it was just introductions to all of the characters with a little written next to their pictures. For some reason I LOVED that thing but I was never able to find any of the other issues. I had actually never even heard of the inhumans then and for the longest time thought they were just invented for this as a future x men spin off lmao

This STORY WAS INSANE!

Thanks for making this

This is my all time favorite

Please continue this series!

Yes yes yes please keep this X coming!!!

yes .the story was awesome Rob.

Loved it! give us more!

Watching this for like the 4th time and still wishing you covered Universe and Paradise X

Please do universe and paradise x bro this story is amazing 🤯🤯🤯

Universe x and paradise x please! Youre channel is awseome, btw!!!!

Love your Earth X story Rob...

The Earth X series and the two follow ups are amazing and my favorite alternate universes in Marvel to date

Never heard of this storyline and this was absolutely amazing!!!!

Oi mate! Can you do a DC zero hour explained? I love all your videos. It's so hard to find older comics these days!
