What Makes Absolute Joker Absolutely Terrifying

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

The Joker has always been so much more than Batman’s arch-nemesis. He’s one of those special villains who is blunt, distinct, and chaotic. He has a presence that’s as unique as his elaborate plans. And while there have been many versions of the Joker over the years, one in particular stands out more than most.

In DC’s Absolute Universe, the dynamics are inverted. The rules are different. In addition to giving us distinct versions of Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman, this world has given us a version of the Joker that is truly terrifying in a wholly relevant way. And given the current state of our world, it’s worth highlighting. Enjoy!

I’ve Accepted That I Will Never Get Married (For Now)

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, I get personal and reflect on my past and present, in terms of relationships. While I have gone on dates and I’ve even had a girlfriend before, I am single as of the making of this video. And given my current circumstances, I’ve fully accepted that I may never get married.

But that doesn’t have to be sad or tragic. I’m old enough to understand who I am and what I seek in a partner. That may still change. But for now, I’m fine with being alone. And I hope this video offers perspective to those in a similar situation.

Why Bob’s Burgers Works And The Great North Didn’t

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

Bob’s Burgers and The Great North are shows with similar aesthetics, themes, and tone. Both channel a mix of eccentric characters and genuine wholesomeness to offer something uniquely endearing.

However, The Great North ultimately failed and was cancelled. But Bob’s Burgers, it’s spiritual predecessor, continues to thrive.

Why is that? Where did The Great North fall short? I attempt to answer those questions in this video. Enjoy!

Jean Grey – A Case Study On How To Write An Overpowered Character

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

Jean Grey is one of the most overpowered characters in Marvel’s pantheon. She regularly carries out cosmic level feats and goes up against god-like beings.

And yet, she’s one the most endearingly human characters in all of superhero comics.

In a genre full of overpowered characters, Jean Grey stands out for all the right reasons. And in this video, I explore what makes her work so well. Enjoy!

Aliens exist. And they HATE us.

When And Why Governments And Societies (Won’t) Change

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

Change is the only true constant. Many seek it for one reason or another, but there’s always so much resistance to it. Governments and society are very erratic when it comes to change. Why is that?

In this video, I attempt to offer a balanced explanation.

How AI Slop Will Evolve For Better AND For Worse

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

The development of artificial intelligence has incurred many consequences. But the most visible to date has been the emergence of “AI Slop.” It has flooded social media, including YouTube. And as generative AI continues to improve, the nature of this slop will evolve.

There are plenty of strong opinions about AI Slop, most of which are negative. I do share some of those opinions, but I also try to approach it with a balanced perspective in this video. Enjoy!
