​@@misanthropicservitorofmars2116There's a lot more to JK Rowling that does make her a bad person. Also even just "supporting women over men" is bad as well because that suggests an inequality. True feminism is good, with equal rights and opportunities, faux feminism (especially when it's trans-exclusionary, as is the case with Rowling) is bad, because it's inherently sexist, just in the opposite direction of misogyny. (It's worth noting I don't actually know if she's a true feminist or a faux feminist, I'm just saying she'd be a bad person even if she was only a faux feminist since that is what your wording suggests; plus I do know for certain she's trans exclusionary, which is bad anyway, faux feminist or not)

[@bellona0544]

I think it’s worth bringing up that Mark eventually acknowledges that Robot’s rule brings about an era of peace and progress. In fact, even despite Robot killing Cecil and Mark and Robot having some serious issues with each other, Mark acknowledges that Cecil probably would have been happy with the state of the world. Cecil cared about securing the planet for future generations at any and all costs, and he did whatever he thought he could to prevent mass death events. He didn’t always succeed, and he wound up with a LOT of blood on his hands-even by Invincible standards.

[@samueljones3668]

Its ironically hypocritical that Cecil killed the first team after they did some horrendous shit but saved him. Then fastforward some years he does the same shit he hated.

[@LeafMaltieze]

Yup. He realized that to save the many lives of the planet, you can't live a black and white life. Ideals are great in theory, but real life doesn't care about ideals, and will throw as many wrenches as it takes for you to realize that, and/or kill you.

@@Werewolf.with.Internet.Access depends on your definition. After all, the word has a very WIDE semantic range, from influential people to the uncreated creator of the omniverse. Omni-Man is around post crisis superman level, though he seems to actually have less durability, as getting punched for a couple seconds by very strong beings gave him internal bleeding and made him unconscious for a prolonged period. If you want to compare him to Greek or Norse pantheons, he's actually far above their durability, although power output is hard to compare. I remember Thor destroying entire mountains in a single hammer hit in one story. Omni-Man destroyed flaxan largely due to relativistic speeds and it doesn't seem he can actually punch that hard. Compare him to darkseid or Jesus (1st advent) (there's a reason I group these two together) and he could technically destroy their bodies if he was permitted to, but would be unable to destroy their true forms. In Jesus' case it depends if he utilities his divine nature to access omniscience and thereby anticipate Omni-Man's attack in which case he can simply speak a word to make him powerless.

So even if we are near neutral but above it, emissions will still continue to go up as you add more people. The only incentive of trying to attain a technology to reverse emissions, is if we want to colonize Mars and one of the goals to do that is to terraform the planet so it becomes habitable. Too many conflicts of interest on trying to do that on Earth. Since this is unlikely in the near future, you will probably want to eradicate a large and catastrophic amount of people, if you want to drop energy demands a significant amount.

Damn he choose to keep the scar to remind himself of the people he got killed. What a character

[@XDariusCoultierX]

Now I understand why Mark & his father destroyed robot & his squad

12:02 oh fu- LOL, love how this comic balances the comedy

The technology in the Invincible universe is really impressive

[@patrickrobinson7541]

You guys deserve a metal for the good content. Are you guys going to do a how powerful is ( insert invincible character)?

[@skooptywooop1030]

Cecil is the batman of invincible not darkwing, because Cecil has PLANS

[@clashoclan3371]

Darkwing is the opposite of Batman, Poor and Stupid.

[@ziimulhah3223]

When I saw Robot slice Cecil's throat in the comic, I thought maybe he could get to a medic fast enough, and then Robot stomped his head.

[@thanosamazing72]

Walton goggins is so good in this role. I’m excited to this character in more seasons.

[@juuliano1383]

I love this character, and his voice actor does a great job

[@richardmangelmann4975]

I love that he’s different from all the other men on top that are very authoritative and make stupid decisions

[@thegamingbat2104]

Moment when you realise Cecil is doing what darkwing was supposed to do

[@Okkotsu86275]

This character is really interesting and tragic

[@sirr96]

Thank you for making these videos !

[@tavitapup8141]

Plot twist: Cecil uses the Mauler twins create a younger clone. Creates an upgrade suite and becomes the Batman the invincible earth needs!!! He will be the kryptonite for all Viltrums Ohhh yeaahhh

[@PB-tr5ze]

I haven't read the comics yet, so I was shocked to see 'Pitt' is in the series... I used to collect that comic when it first came out in the 90's.

Anyone notice spawn in the invincible war conferming this comic has a heaven and a hell

Cecil seems to adamantly follow the saying "Si vis pacem para bellum"

If anybody wonders what this means it say if you want peace prepare for war

[@epicmetod]

If Cecil made into live-action he must be played by Hugo Weaving

[@Unaliq]

This. Hugo Weaving's voice and his calm demeanour will be unique as Cecil.

Clint Eastwood

Thank God! I've been asking for this one!!

When faced with existential threats on the daily, you can't afford to lose. I completely understand why ceicel did what he did.

Are we getting an Allen the alien vid soon? Not asking for it, was just wondering since you mentioned in omni man or invincible’ vid and was just curious. Don’t overwork yourself making these vids! Edit: he made the video

11:50 this part really pissed me off for how dumb Cecil was, he knew of the Viltrumites one Achilles heel and didn't even THINK to plant it in one of the most powerful beings in the universe??

[@deaconnavarro160]

Please do an episode on Thragg! Or on the Viltrumite race as a whole!

[@crazyluigi6664]

He'll take care of that once the Invincible TV series gets to that point of showing Thragg off, at least a little bit.

[@Wyr_111]

He's my favorite character in the series at the moment

[@OverseerXIII]

It just now hit me that cecil looks like jerry from totally spies albeit more mangled

Oh this is just fantastic. And I mean it in both sense of the word.

[@SliteKonto]

Cecil knew since Omni Man got there that there were alternative motives is insane

[@nobodyimportant2534]

Idk why Cecil never thought of getting samples from actually fully formed viltumites like omni man or conquest. Cecil has really good opportunities to do so, omni man would've been ideal when he was removing in the hospital after his fight with the guardians. And conquest would be good after invincible beat him. If Cecil did that then he'd have a lot more STRONGER viltrumites

[@breadwinner80]

i mean Cecil does at the very least keep conquest alive in secret but that ends up backfiring horribly anyway

[@HavikXIII]

Is this a re-upload? I swear I watched this this morning

[@loganswalk8621]

The word I would use for Cecil is pragmatist he doesn't really like what he does but at the same time he knows that it is what's necessary to ensure earth's survival and while yes some of those decisions result in mistakes everyone has made mistakes. Cecil is a man willing to sacrifice anything for the greater good even if others label him as a monster.

[@davidali7664]

I don't know if this is an option but if you could make a video basically about the whole comic series from beginning to end, all major scenes and arcs once you finish all the character explanations. It's hard to keep track of what goes on in the story without going back and forth into videos but that's up to you
