Love his channel! I'll try to collect the ones we've watched so far and put them in a playlist/collection.

Who's up next? 😊

History of Constantine

I always loved Variant's history of videos. Helped me out a lot when getting into comics.

I wasn't expecting this but I'm here for it cause you get to learn more about characters that the movies and shows sometime don't go into detail that much. I will say with some of VariantComic's videos, some of them are outdated videos and don't cover where the characters are at in the comics currently but they do a pretty good job just giving you a brief rundown of the character's origin, their most memorable stories and their powers and abilites. I'm glad you watched this though to know more about John Constantine. Most general audiences know of Constantine from the Keanu Reeves movie and don't realize that one he's a DC character but also British and blonde. Though that's mainly cause that movie purposely wanted to change parts of the character. I just knew you were going to love him even more when you found out he is canonically bisexual. I also should mention cause I know you got a little confused when they were going over his New 52 stories, the New 52 is in reference to the continuity that came after the Flashpoint story when Barry ran back in time to save his mom and created the Flashpoint timeline and then went back in time again to erase that timeline which then created the New 52. The reason why in the New 52 that it's revealed that Constantine killed his parents when doing his first magic spell is cause the New 52 decided to change the origins of a ton of characters to make it easier for new readers getting in to DC, with Constantine being one of the characters changed. That's why it's different from the original Hellblazer story. But since the new continuity Rebirth, I believe the Hellblazer origin is canon again As for the next videos, if you're planning on watching more from VariantComics, I did mention their History of Shazam and History of Black Adam videos as they do a really great job covering both of their origins and why they are archenemies as I believe you saw a hint of that in the Injustice 1 game, specifically with the clash intros. I'd also recommend their Origin and History of Mister Terrific and their Guy Gardner Explained | Everything You Need to Know video as I forgot to recommend it just before you watched the Superman 2025 movie. Another lore video I would love to see what you think is Nerdgasm's Origin of Eobard Thawne the Reverse Flash, since I know you met Reverse Flash in the Flashpoint movie and the Suicide Squad Hell to Pay movie but never learned about his origin. I also wouldn't mind watching you react to Marvel lore videos but I don't know of any good videos for them so I'll leave that to other people to recommend them. But those are just a few I would love to see eventually. Thanks for posting this Meg! Also I will say that I'm still mad that Justice League Dark movie directed by Guillermo del Toro never got made as it was going to have Constantine and Zatanna as the main characters

I love the Constantine tv show in 2014. I literally cried when I heard it was canceled. It had so much potential.
