Invincible Season 2 Episode 1 FULL Breakdown, Ending Explained and Things You Missed 

Charlie maybe cecil clone donald like the maulers twin we saw him died last season.

The Immortal sounds like an interesting character...

I love how they show Donald and just don’t explain how he is still alive.

I think it's safe to assume that the original Mauler died a long time ago & the clones just keep cloning themselves, though this does beg the question why Mauler doesn't make a handful of clones instead of just 1 at a time?

Deathbattle did Omniman vs Homelander. Highly recommend, great conclusion.

Exactly. I haven’t watched any Marvel stuff since Wandavision, but spent the last week binging Invincible, The Boys, and Gen V.

Exactly, but I'm eternally grateful for falcon in the winter soldier. As a brother I needed to see my bro pick up the shield

Bingo!!!

@@FrankLemonjello since Wandavision?? Really

​@@FrankLemonjellobruh, you really shouldn't have stopped. There was some good stuff like Shang-Chi, No Way Home, Gotg3, Loki, Werewolf by Night.

The showrunner and Robert Kirkman said they expanded on the comic book source material because they're going like 7 seasons and each episode is an hour long. The original comic would only fill a fraction of that.

​@@emergencyawesomeThank God they are doing it. When you finish the comic you're left wanting more.

This was my biggest takeaway from the first episode. It wasn't just "Welp Omni-man is a HUGE dick, fucked shit up, oh well moving on!" You got to see the emotional impact that has on both Mark and Debbie. I don't know why, but I didn't expect them to show it so well.

@@emergencyawesomeIdk, even with just the comic material, I could see this show easily clearing season 6. (show only people, MAJOR SPOILERS ahead) Hell, even now, I still predict this season ending with Mark singlehandedly stopping the Sequid invasion in space from that issue somewhere in the 50’s, as that and the parade in his honor that followed was the first time Earth 110% showed that they trusted him despite Oniman’s actions, and that would be a perfect parallel between the themes in this first episode. Then the season cliffhanger would be the drones showing Angstrum is still alive. Then Season 3 will be the Invincible War, Conquest, Omniman and Allen breaking out of prison, and then the cliff hanger will be Omniman, Mark, Allen, and Oliver leaving Earth as the final scene is of Thragg giving Conquest his orders. I personally think of everything leading up to the Viltrumite War as the series’ Act 1 and so I think that was why the show’s 2nd and 3rd seasons both got renewed at the same time right after season 1. I think Amazon wanted to see how the ratings are looking up to the Viltrumite War as that’s about when the animation is gonna get WAYYYY more expensive lol. That’s my only gripe with the comic. I see up until like issue 67 as act 1, then 68 through the end of Thragg vs Battle Beast as act 2, so about 68 through 123. It flows really well that way, but then, the act 3 is only 124-144 and 3 of those issues are the reboot issues which felt like a super forced way to progress 5 years instead of having more issues to take place in those 5 years, and so the ending of Invincible felt INCREDIBLY rushed to me. I personally hope that they scrap that whole plot line all together in the show. The reboot served no purpose as Mark and Eve got right back together and it didn’t seem to impact Mark’s relationship with Tera at all. Literally all that 5 year timeskip did was justify how Thragg was able to reproduce such a large army.

@@23Raind I see where you're coming from. That's a limiting belief, look at what they did with the boys, how much more they added to make the series much better than the comics. I trust they won't pull a Marvel and will make Invincible much better than the comics. It's already improved on the first issues of the comic with Season 1, Atom Eve Special and Season 2 ep1.

I think it’s their bickering about who’s the original and how they both seem like your typical strong meat head character but they switch it around by making them really smart

​@@sonofodin1044Yeah, I really like the implication the original is long dead and that they're both clones, it's a small thing that makes their interactions even more hilarious

i think they might switch somethings around just like in the first season

i wonder where season 2 will end off, if it ends off where i think it will we'll still only be barely 30 issues in making me wonder how long the series will run for, especially if we get these multy year breaks between seasons every time

@@animatedmonkey5882 Maintaining the current pace of season 1 and this first episode of season 2, I think it’ll end right around issues 50-57. That Sequid invasion where Mark steps up to save Earth singlehandedly by destroying their ship, and then the parade in his honor and the interview that follows, that was the first moment in the comic where Earth truly sees Mark as 110% a hero and honors him without questioning him because of Omniman’s actions, plus that arc ends on the cliffhanger where we find out Angstrum is still alive and is actively spying on Mark. I think that cliffhanger would be the perfect way to end season 2. I also think ending it that way would be perfect because it would parallel this first episode perfect and give Mark a completed arc in season 2. Entering season 2, he’s doubting himself and questioning whether he’s gonna end up like Omniman, and people like Immortal and Cecil are actively distrusting of him. So by the end of season 2, by stepping up to stop the Sequids and by earning the respect of everyone, not only has he proved himself to Earth at that point, but he’s also proved to himself that he is his own man. Then, assuming I’m right, season 3 goes right into the Invincible War and then Conquest, where this newly matured Mark will have his growth from season 2 truly tested for the first time.

@@animatedmonkey5882 This is under the assumption that certain events aren’t remixed, so solely based on the comic, here’s how I see season 2 playing out. 2x1: Marks doubting himself. People don’t trust him. Angstrum deforms himself. 2x2: Lizard league setup. Episode ends with Angstrum planning something. 2x3: Mark and Amber’s visit with Eve. Mark returns to find Angstrum holding his mom captive. Episode ends with Mark “killing” Angstrum and being “trapped” in the other dimension. (Mid season finale) 2x4: The older guardians save Mark. Mark tells Cecil what happened with Angstrum, which adds to Cecil’s distrust. Mark “killing” Angstrum also adds to his self doubts. Immediately after returning, Science Dog shows up. Mark decides to leave to help, which further adds to Cecil’s distrust, and Mark having to leave right after returning from the other dimension adds tension to his and Amber’s relationship. The episode ends with Mark arriving to the other planet, and the big cliffhanger is Oniman greeting him. 2x5: Oliver is introduced. Omniman and Mark vs the other viltrumites. Omniman gets taken. As Mark is helping the (forgot what Oliver’s race is called) he notices that he’s been thinking about Eve instead of anyone else, and that adds to his inner conflict about being with Amber. Mark leaves the other planet with Oliver. 2x6: Mark returns with Oliver and informs his mom and Cecil of what happened. He and Amber spend time together, but she’s pissed about him being gone for so long without telling her. Mark is still doubting himself, but seeing his father again and knowing he’s changed, as well as now knowing about the threat of Viltrum has given him a new motivation. We see what’s been going on with Allen since he left. 2x7: We see what’s been going on with the Martian that came back from Mars. He reveals himself to everyone and warns them about the Sequids. Everyone leaves to take down the Sequids. Episode ends with the Lizard League beginning their attack. (finale) 2x8: Lizard league attack. Sequid battle on the ship. Sequids and LL are all defeated by around 5/8 through the episode. The Immortal and Cecil commend Mark. Mark’s parade happens, and then he’s interviewed about why he’s been doing what he’s doing in the first place and whether Omniman’s actions have been his only reason. This is the moment Mark finally embraces the fact that he’s his own man and erases his doubts. He returns home, everything seems fine, and the cliffhanger is that Angstrum’s drone can be seen in the distance spying on the Graysons. We also see Anissa flying up to Earth and viewing it from a far distance, and we also see Allen leaving his planet to come to Earth, each in small clips that set up season 3. The only things from the comic I’ve remixed here are I cut out that scene of Mark telling Eve he “thinks” he has feelings for her and she gets sad as that moment was kinda bad tbh, and I don’t see the writers keeping that. I also pushed Anissa and the breakup with Amber both back, as those two things conflict with where I think the show’s going right now. The other things need to happen first, as Mark in both of those events is a very confident Mark whose came really far from he and Oniman’s fight. Season 2 Mark seems much more traumatized than comic Mark did, and so I don’t see Season 2 Mark gaining the confidence needed to be honest about his feelings for Eve or to be able to tell Anissa off until AFTER the Sequid invasion. Also, the Eve and Amber triangle, training Oliver, Anissa showing up, and the Doc Seismic battle that leads to Cecil and Mark’s fight would all be enough content to fit into the first 2-3 episodes of Season 3 to buildup to the Invincible War. Plus, Anissa’s appearance and warning happening in 3x1 to setup for Conquest showing up around 3x6 or 3x7 would make it to where Anissa’s setup and payoff happens within the same season.

@@keffertv304 huh i was figuring theyd end where mark and omniman fight the viltrumites on the bug planet. and add a couple plots from after that point and put it in before. the first 40 issues im kinda fuzzy on. but from what i remember most of season one was within the first 15-20 issues

At first, I thought invincible and the immortal were just sparring lol

Omni man killing Immortal was the highlight of that for me then the way mark was so nonchalantly talking about all their mass murder 🤣

They answer all the questions as what if style, For example: what would have happened if Omniman had told the Guardians of globe about Vultramite empire's plan instead of killing them And what would have happened if Mark had listened to his dad's plan?🤷🏻‍♀️

Fr that shit came outta left field real quick and I’ve read the comments

Mate, I was actually terrified with that start goddamn!

I was worried when I saw they were doing the invincible war that people wouldn't like it due to multiverse burnout from Marvel

@@owenhalloran3111There’s no such thing as “multiversal burnout” lmao that ridiculous. Sounds just like when people were saying everyone has “superhero fatigue” after endgame. Yet the superhero genera is still pumping out movies/shows. As long as the content is good people will enjoy it. Doesn’t matter how much multiverse content we get.

nah im over multiverses, for example how exactly is there a "most" in infinity? 2/3 or 1/3 of infinity is still just infinity, so it just doesnt make any sense. also all i saw when the revealed the room full of the angstroms was randy in the south park joke. i was just that, different shirts and pants, big whoop. @@RickytickyBobbywobbin-jl5oy

It felt weird not seeing the title card at first but I appreciate the change of pace where the characters say it.

I was screaming for it when it finally showed up

yep!

The Boys????? 😂 they not even airing anything right now

@@malfaroangel3896what does that have to do with anything, acting like it isnt a great show tf

The boys start off great but the ending was incredibly stupid. Nah the boys ain’t it bro it’s 🗑️

Gotta wait for season 4

Watch spawn 97

Well kids cartoons can be seralized alot but they usually start out episodic

That’s brilliant I didn’t notice that

The title card will crack more and more just as Mark’s mind continues to crack more and more.

we already know that retard

I wonder if there's another title card behind the black screen that will slowly reveal with each crack, which will then set up the title cards for season 3

I like the way they did it here cause originally it was totally Marks fault that it exploded he got to be the way he is. But it makes more sense that he hates mark due to the other versions of himself while also keeping our Invincible more virtuous

Invincible didn’t even try to free the other variants or help anything. He just fucked it up like he always does.

I knew he was gone be the villain

@@SuperFan02 how the hell was he supposed to free them while getting jumped by the other mauler variants?

@@neofulcrum5013I don’t blame Mark but let be honest. He came there looking for a fight. He could have chose to try and free the people from the machine instead of fighting. Him choosing to fight is how he started getting jumped. But I don’t blame him for that considering he’s going through a lot, but there were other options.

Read the comics

@@ironlungs3170 join the navy

Nah bro marines@@kaledov

Rah Devil Dog@@lookipooki4932

That’s not forget the final season of attack on Titan as well

Exactly. I was thinking is was a alternative universe, but it’s the main universe. He definitely should be dead or maybe they’ll show later how he survived.

So glad someone noticed that too. It was dope

Pretty sure he’s a clone or something. Cause ya no way original Donald made it out 😂

@@jared5472 Either that, or this is *yet another* alternate universe where Donald wasn't at the house, or otherwise escaped.

Haven’t read that far in the comics yet but I think he’s similar to an LMD from Marvel

Yeah this was confusing

Actually he is kind of cyborg/robot in comics.

They will!

Eventually Mark fall in love with Eve and they have a kid in the future At some point.

Yes, Know the story. To the end. @@eldeadkilljohnkennedy3946

Yes, he'll come back into the story eventually in the main universe.

@@emergencyawesomewait in the beginning is mark actually going to be evil in the future Or is it a alternate version

@@emergencyawesomealternate version

I initially thought the opening scene was a training exercise so when the immortal got chopped in half I was mildly surprised to say the least

@@bangitybangbabang same here mate!

Or he got his powers earlier and his father started training him earlier.

​@@alphachief572There's probably a dozen different reasons why Mark would side with Omni Man. It's even implied in the alternate universe that they still fought, but in the end Mark sided with Omni Man.

Mark might see siding with the Viltrumites as 'the lesser evil', because realistically, resistance is essentially futile, it would only end up in more human death and bloodshed. Realizing the futility in it, a more logical Mark would instead try to convince humanity to submit willingly, whereas, a more moral (but ultimately unrealistically idealistic Mark) would fight for humanity against the largely unsurmountable threat.

@@nagger8216more than a dozen, an infinite amount of big or minute(my-nute) things that could have changed everything

Same thing I said lol bro was disintegrated only thing I saw left of him is the little pieces of his spine in Omni man hand so I'm wondering if it was a clone or something

​@@icechristie5441yeah he's probably a clone. That's why Cecil was hiding why Debbie was startled when she saw him.

Same! Because I was like “didn’t he blow up in season one” I was confused

was looking for this comment, the creator of this video failed to remember that.

Can you believe he was voiced by Killmonger's father from Black Panther?

@@seanpatrickcain2 seriously, who care about that?

Exactly, that didn’t really make sense

Yes Donald did die! He blown himself up with Omiman had pieces of his crush spine in his hands

In the comics, he’s actually a robot lol. It’s definitely the same in the show so they’ll probably address it in a later episode.

@@FunnyReviews4LifeHe’s a robots that bleeds? Cause his spine was bleeding when Omni man grabbed him

@@rollandfinney8670 in the comics he’s a robot from the start and never gets killed by omni man at that point. But in the show they changed it to that he was a human, him being “back” basically means a robot version of him was created I’m assuming. It’s the only logical way to bring him back, but of course they could completely change it.

I basically did the same, had a double take when I saw him standing there. There has to be a robot or clone explanation for that coming because Omni Man not only basically broke him in half, but he was right in the middle of that huge explosion.

Wait no way it's been years

Holy crap it has been years!

"After all these years" show Is literally only 2 years old, lol

@@WeightliftingWigger my bad

​@@23Raindit's definitely Bobby Hill. 15:16

New Donald is either a robot or from another universe

Im so confused with him being back

Glad I’m not the only one who caught it

It's honestly the perfect example of how Omni Man, and now Mark, treat the people they love as 'pets'.

thanks!

I also don’t know maybe they teleported him out at the last second? Omni man crushed his spine and I guess with access to the best medicine on earth that isn’t necessarily fatal

@@23Raind What

@@angeles252 it ain't anime homie..

Now that is an awesome idèa

lol he didnt turn evil he just understand the future, the future means war earth vs vultrumites and its gonna rain blood

That was lame, they should have explored Rudy Robot instead

@@blair5475 it's the first episode man. Relax.

Nah she's still a bitch and never apologized. Besides, it's pretty obvious he's interested in Eve. Hopefully Mark will wise up and dump her trashy ass and get with someone that doesn't treat him like shit

they hated on amber for really good reasons 😐

@@Wingedmagician Enlighten me.

⁠​⁠@@glenrichardson8266they literally didn’t work through anything. Mark fought his dad which made Amber feel bad for him, and suddenly not care about everything she was previously pissed about, that’s not working through something that’s just changing a characters opinion/feelings for the plot.

@@josephnoble1909 You didn't see the scene where they talked about how Mark doesn't owe anybody anything?

Misfits

The punisher Young Justice some of the good MCU Disney+ shows no I’m not talking about secret invasion it was basically wolverine X-Men origins Dragon Ball GT shit

Peacemaker

@@eldeadkilljohnkennedy3946 Seen them! but these three are just something different. Not coated in a paint of disney if you get what I mean. Secret Invasion was ass

​@@excripto1 ew not even just a normie with a dweebus helmet

Imagine having to concentrate on opening a portal for someone while you are being essentially mind-fucked by dozens of people at the same time. It's not happening. It would be akin to expecting a (cloth-wearing) priest in an MMO to tank a raid boss. P.S: Yes, I know that there is the occasional raid boss that, for example, may rely on priests mind controlling elite npcs to use them to tank an extremely hard-hitting raid boss, but these encounters, as memorable as they are, are not the norm / not typical (thinking of you, vanilla/hard mode Instructor Razuvious). I'll leave it at that before I completely change the subject on you, LOL.

Okay, but he literally makes multiple portals at once to bring in all of the Mauler Twin variants to attack Invincible. He can't make one more? Better yet, don't bring in any Twins in the first place and just use the single portal.

@@GreenMonkeySamexactly.

Nah the bad ones are still responsible. Levy wouldn’t even had been in the good invincibles universe had the bad ones not destroyed his. So even in this situation they’re ultimately responsible.

what's that?

Awesome!

Idk what's worse

Clones are a thing in this universe, possible that could be the explanation too.

I'd imagine a hybrid of the two, as an android would undoubtably be a clone anyway, and while still being true to the comics. Time will tell! It seemed like they glossed over any explanation so I'm sure we are due one @@stevem4783

I just saw that rewatching episode 1

Titan didn't mention the elephant, that was Omni-Man. Titan did see Invincible holding the elephant right before the title card appeared in that episode though.

@@jd1800 no i literally just watched it the other day. it was when they were arguing on the roof and invincible didnt wanna help him because he was a criminal. titan mentioned an "elephant guy" as a hypothetical enemy he could be fighting.

@@saphcal I guess you have goldfish memory then, IDK what to tell you. Before you triple down just check the scene again and then when you figure out that you were wrong check the scene where Mark talks to his dad on the phone after leaving Amber's house.

Yeah..we straight up saw his teeth in Omni Man's hand after he was vaporized
