SFCT Presents: Justice League Week: The Darkseid War Part 1


Welcome to Justice League Week on Super Comic Fun Time!


I gotta tell you guys, I was so excited to do this video. I had unrealistic expectations that I could zoom through the first three or four chapters of this most excellent omnibus but I couldn't. This video includes the two prologues and the first chapter of The Dark Side War.

OMG! This story is so good. The art is so good. As you'll see in this video a character called Grail comes through Barry Allen's Flash and it is so awesome I could cry.

Even though I know these are superheroes and this is a comic book, I also know this is the swan song for the New 52 as Rebirth follows shortly after. Yet over and over again even in this first part, I was convinced characters were dying!

So this book definitely brought with it for me the suspension of disbelief. And if you're not looking for something this powerful in a comic book, then this one definitely this one isn't for you.

As I mention in the video, Jack Kirby's The Fourth World Omnibus is at the lowest price I have seen it at yet for the pre-order which is $91.21 so if you want to check out the price and see if it is within your budget click the link!

Movie Tie-In #1: Thor and Beta Ray Bill

On the eve of the opening of Thor: Ragnarok we dive into Walt Simonson's Thor Omnibus and take a look at the first four stories which introduce us to Beta Ray Bill and the idea that anyone who is worthy can wield Thor's hammer, Mjolnir. Thor (as Doctor Donald Blake) is summoned by Nick Fury when  S.H.I.E.L.D. detects a very fast moving object headed toward our solar system. An object that devours suns! When an imminent threat appears a half a galaxy away, Nick Fury seeks out the Mighty Thor! Thor heads off into space while in Asgard a very unhappy Sif is seeking a battle worthy of her skills to take her mind off of Thor. Upon reaching the fast approaching space ship, Thor is mistaken for a demon by Beta Ray Bill whose mission is to protect his people that have been under demonic attack for millennia. Thor is transformed into Donald Blake and loses Mjolnir which has reverted back into his walking stick. Finding the walking stick, Beta Ray Bill stri...

From The Pile Episode 4: The Flash 42:"Night of the Mechanical Zombies"

Today I bring you The Flash #42 from 1990 by William Messner-Loebs, Greg La Rocque, and Jose Martin Jr. "Night of the Mechanical Zombies" starts off with a nice philosophical discussion comparing a computer's creation of cyber-space-time with a human being's creation of space-time. Unfortunately, I didn't know all the characters. I didn't read the Flash. Even now I have read very little Flash and am mostly familiar with the character through the 1990 and current TV show. That being said, I really enjoyed this story. It had so many cool elements to it, like the opening monolog I mentioned above and then we have a woman whose name I never learned, who is inhabited by the ghost of an ancient Irish Bard named Seamus. We get a brief glimpse of Wally West's then-girlfriend who is a supermodel who sells cat food named Connie. And then we have our heroine who's name is Tina, a former girlfriend of Wally West. This story does a great job of buil...

Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus Drops 12/12/2017

As I said in one of my previous videos, the main reason I started this channel is to keep other people who interested in omnibus editions up-to-date with upcoming titles. Especially the ones I am most interested in. Now at any given time there are a boatload of new and reprinted omnibuses coming out as well as collected editions, collected editions usually being the trade paperback that generally contains 6-8 issues of a given title. Sometimes collected editions are lumped in with omnibuses but an omnibus is usually an event comic that contains the main event title and all the related tie-ins. Other times an omnibus will contain an entire run of a title or, as in the case of my most highly anticipated omnibus of the next few months, an entire line of comics. Currently scheduled to be released on December 12, 2017 and part of the Kirby 100 celebration is  Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus   is my number one 'get' of all the upcoming omnibuses. It is impossible to und...
