Transcript:
00:00 what is up Earth's Mightiest subscribers 00:03 it's Ernie Blerd Without Fear welcome 00:06 back to the channel today's video we're 00:10 gonna be talking about something that 00:11 actually meant to drop this back during 00:13 February but me a lot of stuff was going 00:15 on and I figured you know what I'm kind 00:17 of hold on to this will hold it like the 00:18 ace of spades because lo and behold 00:20 you're under quarantine right now and he 00:22 gives me something to talk about during 00:24 this time there are no new comics coming 00:26 out now we are gonna be building a black 00:28 Justice League black and brown Justice 00:31 League if you will and more importantly 00:33 there's some caveats we gotta address 00:35 before we go any further 00:37 caveat number one this team is gonna be 00:39 largely built around the dynamic of the 00:41 original roster of the Justice League 00:44 cartoon series not Justice League 00:47 Unlimited I mean the original Justice 00:49 League cartoon no milestone media 00:53 characters will appear in this list 00:56 because well one right now the rights to 00:59 them is kind of up in the air because 01:00 they just recently as of this past 01:03 December settled that whole court case 01:04 and technically the milestone media 01:07 characters may not be a part of DC 01:08 Comics any longer not to mention they 01:10 also kind of already have their own 01:13 Justice League's if they don't really 01:14 need disease another thing that should 01:16 probably go without saying but all 01:17 characters listed here are going to 01:20 either be black or at the very least 01:22 half black so so I'm sorry Martian 01:25 Manhunter but that would disqualify you 01:27 not only that but even if we were 01:29 counting milestone media characters it 01:31 would also disqualify icon finally this 01:33 is my list so yeah I'm pretty sure 01:36 everyone has their own ideas about how 01:38 wrong I am or about how their list is 01:41 better and that's all well and good you 01:43 can leave that in the comments but don't 01:45 expect to change my mind I've been 01:48 thinking about this for a long time but 01:51 anyways that said we are going to break 01:52 down exactly how we're gonna build our 01:55 all-black Justice League we're gonna 01:57 talk about all that and more right now 01:59 but first watch your damn hands and 02:04 let's hit that intro market-wise grass 02:06 rina one this brother lies gaping chief 02:09 any songs they prefer to lies that's any 02:11 beautiful adrift and her purple eyes you 02:14 can't see me you sleep be wondering have 02:16 our brief smart ever loses that baby 02:18 look before we get started if you want 02:20 to see more awesome comic book videos 02:22 like this ring it only takes two clicks 02:24 to become one of Earth's Mightiest 02:25 subscribers click click I would pick 02:29 none other than bumblebee who 02:31 technically made her first appearance in 02:34 Teen Titans number 45 in 1976 but 02:37 actually made her first appearance as 02:39 bumblebee in Teen Titans number 48 in 02:42 1977 and I feel like bumblebees won't 02:44 scare just once again does not get a lot 02:46 of panel time outside of Teen Titans 02:49 comics if ever her skill set while does 02:51 seem a little limited it actually can be 02:53 quite useful not only can she fly not 02:55 only can she fire off these powerful 02:57 hypersonic blasts as well which I guess 03:00 like her stinger blasts and of course 03:02 she can also shrink 03:03 I feel like bumblebee would make the 03:05 best support characters because she'd 03:06 kind of hang back she could do 03:08 reconnaissance she can kind of fill in 03:09 the gaps in places where other 03:11 characters aren't necessarily the 03:13 strongest for our hitter we are gonna go 03:15 with vixen vixen makes a perfect hitter 03:18 because she can cover so many different 03:20 areas I mean yes she can also make a 03:22 good support character as well so she's 03:23 kind of like a support hitter hybrid if 03:26 the character who first appeared in 03:27 Action Comics number 521 in 1981 she has 03:31 the ability to essentially mimic all of 03:34 the abilities of animals that are on the 03:37 planet that she is on she can tap into 03:39 the red which is basically the spectrum 03:41 to tap into all these different animal 03:43 abilities she can be as strong as a 03:45 gorilla she can be as fast as a cheetah 03:47 she can fly like a hawk she can have the 03:50 senses of a wolf she can do pretty much 03:52 whatever the hell she wants to do she's 03:54 even been able to use this ability to 03:56 tap into the red to actually shape-shift 03:58 into the animals that she uses the 04:00 abilities of she's one of those carrots 04:02 I feel like a doesn't get a lot of panel 04:04 time and B is just viably underused now 04:07 next up we have to look at and that's 04:09 steel see a lot of you thought I was 04:10 gonna say cyborg but cyborg has already 04:12 gotten a lot of play on the Justice 04:13 League and I'm not gonna lie I just 04:15 haven't really been that into him lately 04:18 but 04:18 steal I could get behind because it 04:20 would still give you a Superman esque 04:22 presence on the Justice League but at 04:25 the same time not have Superman in the 04:27 limelight so to speak 04:29 John Harry irons I think could really 04:30 cover a lot of ground that Martian 04:32 Manhunter technically does Alby it he 04:34 would be able to do it telepathically he 04:36 would likely have to do it through tech 04:38 and I think that works just as well now 04:41 let's take a look at who our Green 04:42 Lantern's gonna be none this one's easy 04:44 because who else would I pick to me the 04:46 Green Lantern kind of represents the 04:47 soul of the team I know some people will 04:49 probably say that would be Martian 04:51 Manhunter but to me it's always been you 04:53 the Green Lantern's just because you 04:55 know what regardless of whether you're 04:57 thinking about how Kyle or Jon Stewart 05:00 they usually tend to bring a lot of 05:01 humanity to the Justice League and for 05:04 this I'm picking none other than Jon 05:06 Stewart Jon Stewart is that guy not only 05:08 that he is currently the Green Lantern 05:10 on the team at least up until the end of 05:12 scott Snyder's run and knowing that I 05:14 feel like he is just the better Green 05:16 Lantern in my opinion I know a lot of 05:17 people have their favorites some people 05:19 love how some people love Kyle some 05:22 people love guy but to me it's always 05:24 gonna be Jon Stewart it doesn't matter 05:25 what day you ask me I'm always gonna say 05:28 Jon Stewart that was my Green Lantern 05:30 growing up so that's the one we're gonna 05:32 throw in there now I've already done a 05:33 video on Jon Stewart very recently but 05:36 for those who are not familiar with him 05:37 Jon Stewart made his first appearance in 05:39 Green Lantern number 87 in 1971 and of 05:44 course having the power ring he can 05:46 create whatever he wants he can fly 05:48 he's superhumanly strong when he has the 05:50 ring on and he you just do a lot of 05:52 great things I feel like he would be the 05:55 compensate be the moral compass for the 05:57 team he would be the soul of this Black 06:00 Justice League next up if Green Lantern 06:03 is the soul of the team I feel like 06:06 Wonder Woman is kind of like the team 06:09 mom she's the heart of the Justice 06:12 League and I feel like the character 06:13 that was best embody that would be a 06:15 character I also did a video on very 06:17 recently and that would be Nubia now of 06:21 course Nubia did originally make her 06:23 first appearance in Wonder Woman number 06:25 204 in 1973 however that's not the Nubia 06:29 that I'm talking about not the Nubia who 06:31 was just Wonder Woman's black twins 06:33 sister I'm actually talking about the 06:35 Nubia who was revamped in 1999 and made 06:39 her first appearance in Wonder Woman vol 06:42 2 annual number 8 and that is a Nubia 06:44 who is not so much Wonder Woman's you 06:47 know twin sister her black twin sister 06:49 she is the first Wonder Woman the first 06:52 Amazon to win the tournament of grace 06:55 and Wonder 06:56 thus making her you know kind of you 06:58 back Rhett conned into being the first 07:01 and original Wonder Woman point of the 07:03 matter is I want to use her because one 07:05 Nubian never gets used I mean she has 07:07 been used very recently in Wonder 07:09 Woman's current run that I think is 07:11 still being ridden by G willow Wilson 07:12 but even then she's still not a 07:14 prominent character she's just someone 07:15 who's there in the background and I 07:17 don't want that I want Nubia 07:19 front-and-center I want her to be out 07:22 there doing all the things that Wonder 07:24 Woman can do but doing them with a 07:27 little more grace a little more Wonder 07:29 and a lot more seasoning next up on the 07:32 list is our heavy now this was gonna be 07:35 controversial if for no other reason 07:36 then I'm not picking someone who is 07:38 typically known for their super strength 07:40 I would choose none other than Black 07:42 Lightning now for those who are not 07:44 familiar and I don't know how you are at 07:45 this point but Black Lightning made his 07:47 first appearance in Black Lightning 07:48 number one in 1977 and he could pretty 07:51 much control the electromagnetic 07:53 spectrum he can fire off electricity he 07:56 can fly he can control electricity he 07:58 can create force fields made of 08:00 electricity he can literally turn into 08:02 electricity he can use his electricity 08:04 to heal himself he can do all of that 08:07 but one of the things people don't think 08:08 about is that he does actively use his 08:10 electricity to empower his own super 08:13 strength and durability now would he be 08:15 as strong as Superman probably not 08:17 because Superman is just always booked 08:19 that strong but he'd still be stronger 08:22 than anyone else on the team not to 08:24 mention this guy was trained in 08:26 hand-to-hand combat by Batman himself 08:28 not only that he is in all intents and 08:31 purposes he 08:33 is one of Batman's go-to characters when 08:35 he needs something to get done I've said 08:38 this many times when it comes down to 08:39 Batman Batman when he isn't a pension he 08:41 needs someone to handle some stuff that 08:42 he knows he can't trust anybody else to 08:44 handle he doesn't go to Superman he 08:46 doesn't go to Wonder Woman he doesn't go 08:47 to flash he goes to his homies he 08:50 typically hits up black lightning and 08:52 mr. terrific now that said we're gonna 08:54 talk about who our mastermind is in 08:56 speaking of mr. terrific mr. terrific is 08:59 a third smartest man on the planet and 09:01 some have even said he made that list up 09:03 just to throw people off the scent the 09:04 guy is a natural at everything he ever 09:08 does he is automatically good at 09:11 anything he tries his hand at which 09:13 honestly I kind of feel like is Batman's 09:16 power even though he doesn't technically 09:18 have any and neither does mr. terrific 09:20 but I always just kind of funny that mr. 09:22 terrific was always kind of referred to 09:24 as someone who has a natural aptitude 09:26 for having natural aptitudes and for 09:28 some reason Batman never gets that but 09:30 that said I would pick mr. terrific he 09:32 would be the guy who's calling the shots 09:33 the dude in the chair the dude in the 09:35 field he would be that guy who is coming 09:37 up with plans strategies investigating 09:40 matters at the Justice leaguer looking 09:41 into and basically kind of having 09:44 oversight on everything not only that he 09:46 is a skilled fighter and Batman has gone 09:49 on record to say that yes mr. terrific 09:51 is probably just as smart as he is and 09:53 just as good a fighter as he is but 09:56 anyways those are the characters that I 09:58 picked for my all-black Justice League 10:00 and something I thought was really 10:01 interesting now for those who don't know 10:03 I actually did this in conjunction with 10:06 my guy Devante from alternative 10:08 factual's because he handled the Avenger 10:10 side that I'm handling the Justice 10:11 League side of it but that said you 10:13 should go check out his video about who 10:14 he picked for his Avenger squad and why 10:17 and I think we're gonna be kind of 10:19 trading these back and forth think he's 10:20 gonna do his own version of the Justice 10:22 League and I'm gonna do my own version 10:24 of the Avenger so she go check out his 10:26 channel go
