Invincible Season 1 Review: Was it Too Brutal? 

i am not 18 and i still like invincible

Please please PLEASE do The Mitchells vs the Machines. It is incredible!

If this actually broke you then your a pussy, coward.

@@user-bi5lv4el8h *You're 😘

The brutality is realistic, there are quite a few anime and cartoons that far surpass this.

Beating the child makes built character Nolan was building so much character he accidentally made 2 other children

There is no such thing as too brutal

Nothing screams 'character development' louder than ramming your only child's head through a train and killing all the passengers.

@@AdolphHItler-rs1wi all

Nolan: Yes with Extra Yes and a side of human blood to go with it.

Yeah that's the real twist

Lmaooo dead 💀

Spoiling....

Ah yes! Character development...

@@Scoring57 maybe, just maybe...don't go into the comments when you're watching a review that also contains spoilers?

Big oof

Too soon man. Too soon.

Subway - Eat Flesh

Oh GOD that’s so fittingly shitty

Take your thumbs up and leave!

I thought it was a nod to spiderman tas

Same, I only accidentally noticed it in the few last episodes, and now I learnt that it was always like that

the animation is very bad I love it

Only time it was immersion breaking was the crows falling from the hammer scene, ITS ALL THE SAME CROW

It was extremely noticeable for me, but it wasn’t something that I felt was important. I didn’t notice the stuff with the background people because I was too focused on the main action in the foreground, but the settings were 100% noticeable.

The train is called "the belt" in Chicago

Nah I laughed to most shows I can point out the bullshit but I was only able to do it once or twice for this show

That's what you call good parenting

That was more of an ass beating then a fight but the part were mark said i still have you dad i still have made me cry then after that hold it in then when nolan had that face are you serious i 😂

Laughed so hard I dropped my phone. You cracked my screen.

You mean.... woof? *I'll show myself out*

RU-vid knows what they did.

I mean he ain’t wrong tho..

@@mab2874 yes get out of here

@@c.w.k.n.5117 I've just seen a lot of people on Twitter grouping this, The Boys, and Jupiter's Legacy together and saying that evil Superman stories are uninteresting now

@@EmersonFlemingEmRock13 I don’t really trust Twitter for any meaningful analysis. It’s great for announcements, but not for opinions… Besides, all three are centered around different themes: corporations and society in the boys, tradition versus progress in Jupiter’s Legacy, and deception and existential crisis of Invincible.

@@AlfredEiji good ol' twatter being a twat. I deleted that crap a long time ago.

How about a Dbz saiyan saga rip off? And where did all these superheroes on earth come from anyway? Overrated af

@@skmk88 It’s very different in style and tone from DBZ. Comparing the two is like comparing apples and oranges. They cater to completely different tastes. I personally like Invincible, but could not care less about DBZ. And seem to be the opposite. That’s fine though, because they’re completely different kinds of shows.

Yes, thank you this bothered me to no end. I really liked her character and then that happened and was like "What a bitch!"

And then she just kinda comes in at end with her whole “guess we were both lied to” BABE WHAT????? And then Mark is just like “okay” as if she didn’t just compare what was essentially high school drama to everything Mark knew and loved being a whole lie while thousands of people were being mindlessly slaughtered and the entire fate of the planet was in serious jeopardy. Glad your priorities were in the right place ms social justice. Loved that moment for you babe It’s just that it made no sense. She had every right to be mad if she didn’t know. But if she knew the entire time? 🤦‍♀️💆‍♀️

@@p1p1pupu Broo ik its ridiculous

I'm really hoping they don't ruin a certain scene between her and mark cause its one of my favourites in the comic One of the biggest selling points of the series is that the characters act mature and for the most part will talk things out and be understanding

Well seeing that I doubt Amazon wont fight Disney to animate it at one point in the Comics he gets sent to the marvel universe and teams up with Spiderman

Nah, it's not.

Look man I understand your point but I can't not laugh because of how similar omni nan looks to JJ jameson

@@cedrecortega9825 instead of pictures of Spiderman he just wants conquering of earth. It isn't that hard!

yeah, like who knows how long he was there

But wouldn't it be like a few milliseconds if he spent days there so why did he get back way later

@@rebeccacummings6697 idk, it's hard to say bc we don't know how long he was on their planet exactly since that scene was a montage

@@fabulousfries790 I think the minimum is months or years he was there

If we use the comics timeframe it took 8 months

Yup, same feeling. I'm fairly lenient on violence, less than most but I can watch a movie like Logan pretty ok. It's funny how you said your heart was hurting and you weren't sick to your stomach like most people would. I felt the same way after the ending of the first episode, and I won't go on. It's almost like it didn't even matter if it was drawn or not it was just too much.

Wait, You read Berserk, the manga with the troll gang rape and explosive pregnancies' due to said rape. . . .and invincible made you cringe?

@@Sceth surprisingly yes I think it's because I used to read so much messed up stuff back then and recently I haven't really watched or read any gore stuff

My gawd you people need to stay confined to reddit. I hope you are a woman for your sake.

@@carlthecuck3128 this is a shitty troll or bait attempt

Idk. I was still very shocked by what battle beast did in episode 5 and what happened in the last episode

bud I watched all of tokyo ghoul animate violence and blood are meaningless to me now (though they did a really good job animating the brain matter and organs and stuff) Edit: ok so I'm getting tired of this so I'm gonna clarify some stuff 1. I prefer Invincible over tokyo ghoul 2. I don't think tokyo ghoul is even all that good I just like the world and it was the first show I watched that wasn't afraid of blood 3. this was not said seriously It's called a joke 4. just to clarify what I said above means is I'm not an edgelord it's a freaking joke

The inmortal didn’t liked the last part of your comment

@@luisfernando552 lol

Half are 16+ only a few are 18+

Should read the reviews on amazon. People bitching a EXTREMELY gore filled, sexual assaulting, and kinda borderline pedo comic isn't being adapted to be sugar coated for their 9 year old...

the blood made the show feel more real, and made the people feel more real also.

spoiler mark got hunted down by a viltrumite women and then r@pe

Don’t feel bad, they put the warning there for a reason. That’s on them if they don’t read it

If psychopaths or nihilistic have super powers, lets not be so pessimistic about people.... No wait, is on America, they can totally turn out like that

The evil superman trope played out nothing new

@@inosukehashibira5511 Omniman isn't the Superman analogue in the story. That's Mark.

Bruh same that was too budget 😂

When I saw this I said, out loud, "Did they sink through the fucking floor?!".

forget sliding into the dms, he's sliding into the bed sheets

I think it was done out of humor like and not out of budget. Old school cartoons had animations like that and I think it was a play off of that.

It was sweet and then I freaking lost it 😂

Finally, thank you

"Think Mark think" comes from the comics, which is likely the source of confusion.

Yes

@@GuyFromJupiter also, sounds better than just one "think"

@@AsAventurasdeGui dont agree

Wait, I wasn't gonna watch this until you said Steve Yeun and now my inner Voltron fan is urging me to

@@ceve he was one of the reasons why I watched the show, but he actually didn't sound like Keith to me. My brain knew its the same voice actor, but I wasn't confused by it. Steven Yeun is such a good voice actor.

Honestly the scene that really got me was after Mark tried to save the mother and her child and the building falls on top of them. the part where it shows him holding the mothers arm and then realizing that the arm was the only thing left of the mother really got to me.

@@oogliebooglie8796 I'm a big fan of the realism that they portray in a world of super powered freaks. Yes, a lot of casualties happen. Yes, these heroes always try their best to save everyone. But you can't save everyone.

Yoooooo you should check out my Invincible review

Speaking of the boys. They did the same thing with homelander in the premier episode of season 1 they made him look like a saint even other people praise him as such.

Not really, at least in my mind. With The Boys, it comes across as something made by someone who doesn't like superhero flicks, while Invincible looks like something made from a position of love for superhero flicks.

And THIS WASN’T EVEN IN THE COMICS lol

I had to pause it and finish the episode the next day.

THANK YOU. Everyone has been so quick to bash her and aren't even thinking about her feelings. I loved your mention on the hero telling his partner his identity trope

@@dayosolaaje3195 I don't really wanna like... justify her actions, if that makes sense? It was still really bad writing. Like I honestly would have liked it if her response to Mark saying he was Invincible was "You get that that doesn't magically fix all our problems, right?" Not just gaslighting him how she did on the show. It woulda been totally fair her to be like "I understand why you kept it from me but at the same time you made me feel like absolute shit and I can't just act like everything's fine now, I still need a little time to think about whether or not I can date you if this is how things are always going to be." Because then she has agency AND you have drama AND you can see where she's coming from while not making it explicitly Mark's fault OR her fault.

I saw it as she didnt know until he said so, aqnd was trying to save face because she is allegedly smart. Not realising that if she actually knew she is abeing a right proper C consdiering her past behaviour. Its just teen ego, they have overplayed it and needed to either dial it back or make it even more obvious she was clueless.

Tbh she didn't seem like a "nothing character" to me. She was just a normal girl that was worried about normal things like school and her boyfriend. That's what I liked about her character, she wasn't some badass woman who could do anything a man could but more of normal person. This later was used when Eve told Mark that he could never date a normal girl because normal people don't look up(A reference to when they were both flying over cities and she then comments on how normal people don't look up.) Ironically enough Amber does look up and sees both of them on Eve's homemade house. I also find it kinda funny because Mark and Amber's relationship is literally like Nolans and Debbie's so when she said that I was kinda confused. Unfortunately they do split but they are on good terms. In the show she's some feminist who can bully a bully and is portrayed as a "strong female character". This really doesn't set a good look on her because they are trying to change the normal girl in the comics to some empowered weirdo. To add insult to injury she breaks up with Mark while knowing he saved her and his friend. I agree that it is terrible writing on her but it didn't start out when she knew he was a hero but it started when they changed her character to begin with. She was never meant to be a long lasting character so that's why when they changed her from just normal and tried to make her stand out they only damaged her character by making her an insufferable person. I really liked the comic version of her and thought they did get good job with her. As for the shows version I'm not a fan but to each their own.

@@JCfireman ...She was a nothing character, with basically no personality. She was a placeholder until Mark and Eve got together, because Eve actually got fleshed out from the start.. And the fact that you don't like new Amber because she's "Empowered" or "Feminist" as opposed to "because she's an objectively bad person" in conjunction with the fact that you DID like the version of Amber who has no agency or personality is really, really telling about your whole deal.

Not really? If he killed the guardians without remorse in the first episode you get a pretty good idea about who Nolan is. That line is great foreshadowing and seeing him utterly decimate a planet for trying to interfere with his “work” gave us a taste of what he was truly capable and of what was to come.

@@santiagosanchez4836 no what it means is that, the world is omnimans co conquer

Right when he said that I was like "Because it's YOURS to conquer?" was pretty devastated at how accurate I was o_o

@@santiagosanchez4836 But we didnt really know who Nolan was at the time, he couldve been mind controlled.

Brief explanation on how this show succeeded where Zack Snyder failed

Wow, that's really well put! I hadn't thought of that angle before...

@@KalebPeters99 | Thanks! In storytelling, violence is a tool like any other. It can be beautiful, funny, ugly, or distressing depending on how it's styled. A good storyteller is one that knows how to use it to elevate their story. A bad storyteller is one who crams it in thoughtlessly.

I think he does, but still hasn’t fully processed what’s happened

You can have PTSD but not show Hollywood symptoms. It’s a much quieter disorder than most people believe. I fully believe Mark is dealing with soon-to-be-crippling PTSD or C-PTSD.

u read the comics bc it only gets worse lol

He's still in shock--like he said his friends, it doesn't even feel real to him yet. Traumatic events can take a while to process, especially at his age.

@@Mothman_In_a_T-Pose Yep and it doesn’t show the same in every person. Some are loud, violent, others are quiet and paranoid.

I know for a fact they spent like a week picking the right red lmao

And lack of story outside of Father and son relationship the show just blood and gore with cussing yeah so profound

Yeah, that was the point where I went from sympathizing with Amber to feeling glad that Mark was no longer dating her. Cause that revelation made her treatment of Mark come off as deliberate emotional manipulation and that's a MASSIVE red flag at the best of times.

she wasnt upset that mark didnt make time for her, she was upset that he didnt trust her enough to tell her and decided to lie to her and make up excuses for not showing up to things which is pretty reasonable. also having him reveal his identity ONLY when she decided to actually leave him is a pretty shitty thing.

@@kit2799 Which was all well and good until you think back the scene at the university. Her "breaking point," is presented as Mark vanishing when the cyborg showed up. Which, if she was ignorant, would make sense. It looked like he abandoned her in a moment of crisis. But when it is implied that she knew Mark was Invincible at the time that she snapped at him there, it paints her as dishonest and manipulative. She knew Mark didn't run, and was fighting for his life, but then chose to feign ignorance and chew up him about running and made that "the reason" for the break up. Now it's a situation where they're both lying and manipulative. Which makes the whole dynamic weird to watch.

To be honest it was the one thing that was definely beter in the comics, but american media cabt seem to wirte black caracther as somethung other than narcisists so...

@@MrRobot-0 it’s got nothing to do with her race shush

Agreed. This isn't a show where the brutality is just a symptom of a darker, edgier world. It is used to challenge and highlight Mark's optimism and moral resilience. Sort of like the manga and anime Monster, where a serial killer's antics are used to contrast Dr. Tenma's morals.

It would work better if Mark mentally reacted to the brutality more than in just the last 2 episodes

The gore is animated almost exactly like Metalocalypse, so I just think it's goofy.

Wouldn’t want you as a dad

@@GamerSlyRatchet1 Monster is the greatest anime ever

Between both Mark and Omni-Man finding them that hard to fight and the only time we see Cyborgs being taken out easily is when Rick himself is half-cyborg, I get the impression they're *incredibly* strong in universe. Though it does beg the question of how...

I know, right? What metals is Sinclair USING to make these things?!

Doesn't that make him a Speciesist?????

@@tommatt2901 no it’s just genocide

@@elizabethgouverneur2972 Oh, well I’m glad we cleared that up.

He literally uses eugenics He said "viltrumite blood is so pure, [Mark] is practically full-blooded" in episode 7 or 8

I thought that too, but honestly he might have just thought now is the time to smash through the floor

Or it was just horribly inefficient. Like, Omniman had to see Mark kill all those people and might have went ' This is taking way too long for his arms to kill a crowd, if I cause an earthquake, the process will go by much faster.

It feels like they are making fun of themselves like ," oh boi here it comes the title of the show..ta daa"

The worst part is, you almost never see it coming

It's the only thing I don't like bout the show

I always find it too abrupt or the dialogue before it too quiet, so I’m like wait what was the sentence the ends in “invincible”?

YOU ARE NOT [title card]

Make way for the King was a fucking banger, and Omni man killing the not martians. The only songs I Unironically loved

@@xaldynnemo47 omg-

@@xaldynnemo47 I thought that exact thing when I watched that scene, but it makes me uncomfortable to think of them as a pet-owner relationship Cursed as heck

Shortly after Mark gets his powers, Nolan confesses to Debbie that he can't help but feel their lives "would have been better" had Mark NOT gotten his powers, that it really "changes things". I feel like Nolan was hoping he could outlive his wife and son before conquering the planet, but Mark getting his powers expedited his plans. Would also explain why he was stunned and questioned Mark when he announced he got his powers at the dinner table, instead of being pleasantly surprised

@@Strawberriezrule13 great theory, I agree

Another subtle thing was how when Omni-man killed each member of the guardians of the globe, he always went for the head

Slight spoilers for the comic if you haven’t read it. My main problem with how they used omniman in this show is how difficult it’s going to be for them to redeem him after all the shit he’s done in it. In the comics, he did some fucked up shit but he was still redeemable. In this however, for the sake of a more powerful, scary, interesting, and gorey villain, they made him outlandishly evil with terrible actions and choices all across the board. I’m interested to see how they redeem him.

I love it when shows make you afraid for your characters.

I find the opposite to be true for myself. While you really 'know' the main title character won't die, it makes you question it sometimes with how far they go sometimes. I like this. Other shows are really hard to enjoy when you realize they are afraid and never going to do so much as give a splinter to half the cast. It makes the moments they try to pretend they will really lackluster in comparison.

Yeah, I genuinely thought the new Guardians of The Globe were gonna be slaughtered in their fight with Battle Beast.

This is why Invincible is a beast on my list of the worst fictional universes to live in You are not completely safe even without the viltrumites and even with powers

Based on how the time pf that dimension is treated in the comics i would say he could have been there for a few decades ateast

I thought he was just aging faster in their... universal timezone? Pocket of spacetime? Dimension? Actually never mind that whole situation doesn't make much sense

@@dankmagician7108 I'll give a spoiler free explanation for this as it was explained in the comics. Yeah Nolan actually spent decades in the other dimension during that scene, since the aliens (forgot what they're called) age much faster in our dimension the opposite happens when someone from our dimension goes to theirs.

@@brachioboy So it's not just a "time runs at a different speed" thing? Like 1hr on Earth is 10hrs where they live, but it's also that someone from Earth's dimension ages super slowly, like 1 day here = 10 days there, plus you only age 1 day in that 10... so Nolan growing a beard would normally take like 40 days, convert to x10 there = 400 days... but he only ages 1 in to, so x10 again => It could've been 4000 days spent beating them up? Not even considering Nolan just ages super slowly on Earth's dimension, so growing a beard could take 10x or 100x longer... maybe matthew rowe's right, decades min

@@user-ut9ln4vd5mpretty much yeah. I actually think the beard is a mistake on the animators part. But keep in mind that my information comes from the comics. So maybe the anime adaptation has a different reason on the dimension time thingy. Only time will tell, hopefully it gets explained.

So true. I enjoyed the show, but it did have some bad writing in it. What bothered me was Titan moving his family into Mech-heads luxury appartment, as if Mech-head would just sell it to him. Titan is squatting there with his family, needlessly endangering them and drawing attention to himself. Total dumbass.

@@mcjcave18 THe way it was described it almost feels like the minds are swapping as the new conciousness are created, as. Depicted when Robot saw his frail hand and not frail hand seemlessly merging, it feels like the brains are being swapped and they don’t know if they remained the same or swapped.

Honestly, i haven't read the comics but I can't wait for the relationship to end. I already know he's meant to be with eve anyway and Spoiler, though not for you because you've already read them She is probably the only thing he will still have after 500 years

@@xmant8842 Not mean to spoil but *cough* it's probably because or Eve's power that she can live that long

fuck that came off rude

@@xmant8842 Holy shit, thank god that is the case. I'm fan with that spoiler because shit Amber was my least favorite part of the show, her personality was just so unlikeable to me and how she treated Mark was even worse. Hell that's the best thing I've heard for later story arcs. If you had to guess how many episodes it would be since you read the comics, how many seasons in do you think it will take for the break up? I mean I don't expect her to just stop existing in the universe or being a part of it, but I mean just breaking up with Mark for good.

@@theworstcatholic7247 i actually haven't read the comics so I don't know, but I hope they break up soon

Ah I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed it

I think he might be doing it more out of shock - a retreat to simple things, meeting basic needs, not wanting to face what just happened. Not on an empty stomach, at least. God I hope he doesn’t feel the same way as his father did in that moment.

@@twagetomato I agrre, it is the "same pizza", but for very different reasons: omniman didn't care at all, while Marc is in shock and his mind is numb from the pain.

@@twagetomato agreed but it’s him leaving it at the door because he wants to be like dad. He questions it at the flashback point.

From what I've seen people say, the pacing is much better then the comics and doing stuff earlier helps make it better then the comics. Idk though because I haven't read them

I honestly prefer the structure of the show. I love the added mystery elements and how it builds in extra dread. And by having other plot points happen before Omni Man is exposed, the writing feels tighter and more interconnected. I honestly disliked how long and drawn out the cyborg storyline was in the comic. We would get about 2 pages of the cyborgs being built up every few issues and there was nothing in between. Rick is literally gone for weeks before Mark picks up on what’s going on. The show condensed this into a single episode, which was easy to do since it was already a simple story in the comic. And since the cyborgs were used before Omni Man is exposed, this immediately gives the pay off of the cyborgs being tested against Omni Man. This immediately pays off the introduction of the cyborgs and sets up how the cyborgs will be used in the future. In the comic, things just sort of happen after Omni Man leaves and we don’t see them come back in important ways until much later. The comic was already a very well built story. The show just manages to tie in the best parts in a more efficient way.

@@renemartinez3451 which isn't too surprising as Robert Kirkman specifically made these changes for the better of the story since he's grown so much as a writer since back when he wrote the comic

SPOLIERS I wonder how they'll fix the Angstrom Levy bits. I always found him to be the worst villain in the series and just an excuse to get to better villains (Conquest, Robot.) Even the Invincible War just felt like a couple pages of filler to introduce Conquest. I know everyone's looking forward to that fight, but I think we all forget what a pacing mess that whole Levy-Conquest arc was.

That's one way to look at it but I think it really just that they wanted to hold off on revealing him to much later so they needed a reason to not have earth completely screwed when he went ham to make Cecil not look like a dumb ass

I always figured that it was because Omni-Man needed to build up the momentum to pull off certain feats. Cause if this world is trying to apply the laws of physics to this world (Or at least as much as possible in a world with beings that can fly and control atoms) Then things like momentum and leverage would be big factors in certain situations. Even Omni-Man himself said that for flying, he needs to let the momentum carry him or he'll overuse that "flight muscle". Plus at that point in the fight, it could be assumed Omni-Man was getting tired after all, he did just take two blasts from an orbital space laser and has been flying as fast as he could to reach Mark before anyone else could get to him.

I think it's just a classic case of getting punched by something with superpowers hurts more than any man made weapon, even if it doesn't make any sense. We see it all the time in comics.

Nah, the writers just changed the characters strength from scene to scene for dramatic reasons. Just like how in the 1933 King Kong, they changed its size from 18 to 50 feet depending on the scene. Writers dont care about such things like consistent power levels. An extreme example would be Chinese web novels (especially Xianxia novels). At the start you will have characters punch fist sized holes in boulders when their punching strength is like 200 pounds (for comparison, Mike Tyson's punching strength was around 1000 pounds). After cultivating a bit, the characters will soon be flipping mountains and by the end of the story they will be destroying Trillions of universes with the flip of their hand. But it will never be consistent.

@@MsClonetrooper That's exactly what I thought too - he had a lot coming at him to tire him out

Who watches the Watchmen?

Who avenges the Avengers

who judges the justice league

Who Lightnings the Thunderbolts

who let the dog out?

Exactly. It's masterful!

Like how he tries to save the old lady and ends up with her all over him.

It certainly can be as gory as the show, it just picks it's spots. Mark's first fight with Conquest comes to mind.

Agreed, I like comic Amber a whole lot better. Her portrayal there is one of a smarter and slightly more mature person. Show Amber's kind of an entitled bitch.

Amber doesn't figure it out! She confronts Mark and mark tells her. She is in disbelief and even asks him again "so you really are not dealing drugs?"

So a multi-issue death battle that results in the victor wearing the others body as a cowl, for example, isn't as 'gory' as the show?

@@anthonypatterson8796 I'm only on issue 25 so idk yet😂 But at least for me seeing it on a page is different from seeing it on screen, so the lvl of gore might just be my opinion.

when is it coming out
