Great Job!  Loved the imposing of video into comic pages

#3 Posted by Lustwish (531 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

Very well done.  Tony I'm really starting to enjoy these.  This one was just the best.  I was big on the Infinity Gauntlet etc. years back.  Keep up the good work.

G-man please don't take this the wrong way, but I love you.

Great as always, but perhaps you should consider renaming it 4 Minute Expert? :D

#7 Posted by Baddamdog (2221 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

That was awesome!! I didn't know much about Thanos, so that was really helpful! :)
 
Dude, you should totally do a Psylocke 3 minute expert!!!

#8 Posted by MI 6 (63 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

Awesome. So much moving images.  
 
Great great job !!

@Baddamdog: Ha ha, Psylocke? Okay, the one for next week has been filmed. I won't lie and let you know I was super close to doing Psylocke for the one after but as I started writing, I decided on working on another character instead. This doesn't mean Psylocke isn't coming. Just not quite yet. But know that she's on my list.

 Woooo go Thanos!!!! I really do love these 3 minute expert features, glad to see them back!       
Hoping to see a 3 minute expert on Nova in the near future! :)

Would love to see one for Black Bolt or Gladiator, otherwise I enjoyed this. Thanos is definitely a character I find to be a bit of a badass, literally willing to kill billions in order to (sort of) impress a girl. Takes dedication!

Great job again, Tony.  Awesome video!!

#14 Posted by Archetype (731 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

Great job G-Man I knew most of the stuff from the Infinity Gauntlet/War series but not much before then so thank you.
 
Also spectacular job on the editing Joey!

#15 Posted by G-Man (25935 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

As always, Joey does an awesome job editing. Thanos needed to go on a quest to get the Infinity Gauntlet. I just needed Joey to get it for me.

Dude, Tony, that was awesome. I knew basically nothing about Thanos, now I'm kinda interested to follow the Imperative arc.

#17 Posted by War Killer (17688 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

I'm loving these, great job guys! Looking forward to the next one!

#18 Posted by Nova`Prime` (3934 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

Good job, only problem is Thanos is one of those characters that is so complicated you really can't do him credit with just three minutes. He was instrumental in defeating Magus in the Infinity War, he "cured" the Universe in Marvel's The End, he stopped an multidimensional being from devouring the current dimension when Galactus tried to cure himself of his hunger, not to mention stopping the Beyonder while he/she was imprisoned at the Crunch.

My comic knowledge expands once more. Great job Tony and Joey.

#20 Posted by NexusOfLight (1715 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

I don't know how you did it, but I'm even more excited for the Thanos Imperative than I was before. Can't wait.

#21 Posted by ChaosAgent (61 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

Looking pretty spiffy with the Infinity Gauntlet at the end there, G-Man.  
 
I don't think I would mess with you. xD
#22 Posted by LT1085 (3658 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

All my life I've been pronouncing 'Thanos' with a hard "A" ...like Thainos...What is it? The way G-Man says it sounds weird to me.

#23 Posted by G-Man (25935 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio
@LT1085: I actually did a mini-poll on Twitter before filming. Also, this is how they said it on the Silver Surfer and Super Hero Squad cartoon.
 
@ChaosAgent:
Ha ha. Thanks!
 
 @Nova`Prime`:  
That's what makes these so hard, trying to trim it down. So much has to be left out.

This was badass. I've always wanted to know the backstory, pretty cool. (I always thought it was ThAnos though)

#26 Posted by LT1085 (3658 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio
@Gambler:  YA, I'm sticking with saying/reading it as  ThAnos.

@G-Man: Dude thanks for that... I didn't want to buy the Thanos Imperative because I didn't know anything about Thanos.... now I want to read it!
 
So... what are you going to do with the Infinity Gauntlet?

#29 Posted by sixdecibels (34 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

ThAInos RULEZ LOLzzz 
 
But seriously.. He does!

#30 Posted by G-Man (25935 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio
@goldenkey: Dude, watch the cartoons I mentioned. Two different Marvel productions both say it the way I do.
 
@sora_thekey:
What am I going to do with the Infinity Gauntlet? Maybe I already have done something. Maybe everything you know and remember are just because I made it so this morning.

Once again, great job guys!!!! Now I know more about Thanos than I did 3 minutes ago.

#32 Posted by ArtisticNeedham (1973 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

These are so great, I am now know so much more about Thanos than I did before (which was almost nothing).  Now I feel like I know as much, or more, than if I had read the Marvel Encyclopedia.
I can't wait to see the next, to see who it will be.

@sora_thekey:  
 
The answer to the question "What is G-Man going to do with the Infinity Gauntlet?" is simple..........anything he wants!
#34 Posted by ImperiousRix (1069 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

Awesome, Thanos is a bad dude. 
Oh, and that Infinity Gauntlet at the end was a nice touch.

#35 Posted by stoneo (320 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio
@G-Man:
Good job, but now that you did Thanos you should do his DC rival Darkseid.

by the way, havent seen a trading views video for a while now. =[

#41 Posted by Preacherl2k (460 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

G-MAN!  
 
The part where you paused to say Scroll not Skrull was PERFECT! Thanks for the funny!

#42 Posted by FoxxFireArt (3353 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

I can see why this was delayed. It was pretty good and the editing was well done. It was quite informative.
 
I have to say that looking at Thanos' brother. I can almost understand why he took that path.

#43 Posted by Superkitty (1057 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

You forgot the chapter in which Thanos sent his cousin Grimace to Earth to kill millions of people with clogged arteries and coffee burns.

#44 Posted by drunkbear (46 posts) - 2 years, 11 months ago - Show Bio

Thanos is my favorite cosmic character. Also: Best last words ever! Looking down at your own disembodied heart and saying "Interesting..."

I don´t think that Darkseid is a telepath, but otherwise, maybe.
