Invincible 2x8 Reaction | I Thought You Were Stronger

[@gremmythoumeaux2393]

If you go back you’ll notice Mark has spider web on him when he returned to his house after meeting Agent Spider. That’s because in the comics, Spider-Man wanted to help him after hearing his predicament and latched a web onto Mark but the portal closed too quickly before Spider-Man could go through. I imagine the exact same thing went down with Agent Spider here.

[@akka8588]

Would have been a great team up between the two if he was able to cross the portal with him

[@alixgamer1040]

Yeas already in comics spider man when mark tried to return spider man webbed him so he could help him but he changed his mind because he didn't want to stuck in his dimensions read comics because the show is exactly like comics but it will be spoilers

[@paulanderson771]

That's a neat detail! I'm avoiding the comics so I don't spoil the show (I made the mistake of looking up Oliver and got a real quick impression how huge this all gets) but I like hearing those little things.

[@mavezod]

It was a wild choice for Angstrom to send Mark to the Marvel and DC universes. He easily could have brought back some powerful allies or weapons.

[@AnotherScribbler]

@@mavezodAngstrom probably figured Mark would lean hard into the “two heroes fight when meeting for the first time” trope.

Big shoutout to Sterling Brown(Angstrom Levy), Sandra Oh(Debbie), and Steven Yeun(Mark). They really put the ACTING in voice acting 👏

[@haha-lj5sq]

Yeah. Sterling K. Brown deserves a lot more props for his voice acting this episode. You can feel his pain, hatred, and also unstable insanity. He walks the line between “evil genius” and “uncontrollable psychopath” so well

[@h3llboyyy407]

STEVEN WENT CRAZY

[@TheRubberDuck77]

Mark saying, I thought you were stronger.... even in his rage he still only stopped holding back because he thought Levy could take the hits

[@DJHolte]

I also liked how the show made me wonder if Mark was talking to himself, like, "I thought you were stronger, Mark, and could control yourself."

[@borjankosarac3645]

Stronger than his Dad, strong enough to not lose it and kill somebody… yeah. This is going to have repercussions across his psyche.

[@KevinDPomeroy]

This episode had the most visceral reaction from me and when I had I had been desensitized to the violence, the part with Debbie being hurt happened. That shocked me more than than anything else this season. Yeah I think she is my favorite character on the show.

[@flaggerify]

We know she'll get better. People are coming back from the dead in this show.

[@ididntwanttomakethis6588]

Seriously - we’re used to seeing the heroes and villains get pulverized but seeing Debbie fight so desperately to protect Oliver was impactful. When she got her arm broken it was heart breaking. Sandra Oh is so phenomenal in this role.

[@gremmythoumeaux2393]

Angstrom Levy had my sympathy at first because of his condition and all of the bad encounters with Invincible the other versions of him had. But in short, he’s practically a mental patient with literally many voices and minds in his own head and can’t even keep track which are his own. Now someone with such a unstable mind with dimensional hopping powers is someone I imagine is much too dangerous to let loose, especially since he has no problem hurting a helpless woman and a baby no matter how justified he tries to make it seem.

[@joegreene7619]

One of my all-time favorite villains because he's so easy to identify with at first and then has circumstances lead to a logical yet indefensible hatred of Mark and his family.

[@neuralinferno1765]

Yet unlike a mental patient those weren't delusions as they all happened in reality (although different realities) which makes it all the harder since Angstrom Levy's decent into villainy was all caused by spiraling set of circumstances that could've been avoided. For instance, if Mark disobeyed Cecil and listened to Angstrom (though unlikely to happen since this his 1st mission back after the Omni-man incident yet he does end up disobeying Cecil anyway later when goes saves the Fish people, goes to Thraxan planet, etc. but that's neither here nor there) or if Angstrom chose to go against his moral/ethical code and let Mark possibly be killed by the alternate universe Maulers for the "greater good" that he could bring. At the end of the day it's sad and I feel like death could not come to a person as sympathetic as Angstrom nor could the hand that brought his death, Mark Grayson, be just as sympathetic if not more so, even empathetic.

[@Cornelius-x7y]

I’m pretty sure that doesn’t take away the fact that mark in however many dimensions was a piece of sht and it makes sense why he wants to kill mark and his family

Agent Spider and Prof. Ock are original characters made for the show. In the comic, it was an actually crossover with Spider-Man with Doc Ock as the villain. The person that voices Agent Spider is Josh Keaton, who also voiced Spider-Man in the show Spectacular Spider-Man

[@Weirdo9934]

I want to say this has been one of my favourite reactions so far, from some people I've seen, they felt hyped or even half cheered, as Mark finally stopped holding back, when, to me, Mark's killing of Angstrom in this dimension has always been a horrifying moment, because of the idea the first kill is always the hardest, and any future ones will be slightly easier (not to say they will be easy), and Mark is such a precious and kind person and I don't want to see what would become of him if he is to ever start killing. Seeing you stressed and panicked as Mark fought so violently reminded me so much of how I felt when I read the comics for the first time, so thanks for letting me relive a bit of what it was like when I first read this amazing series

[@angryretailbanker5103]

When you consider the timeline with the previous episode, Mark really had a bad day. When Angstrom called, he had JUST broken up with Amber. And the breakup with Amber occurred right after his fight with Anissa. Talk about a bad date.

[@Ren_Davis0531]

I love the idea behind Angstrom being used to represent Mark’s character. His mind has been jumbled up with all of the memories of his counterparts and the vast majority of universes show Mark embracing being a Viltrumite. The implication is that even though this Mark is a hero, he still has similar traits to his counterparts when it comes to violence. Mark’s decision at the end represents that Mark still feels that same rage that is emblematic of Viltrumites and now Mark has to wrestle with the fact that deep down he can be just as aggressive as a Viltrumite. Mark beat Angstrom the same way Nolan beat Mark in the Season 1 finale. Essentially the multiverse is used as a way to explore Mark’s character as opposed to fanservice cameos……although those Spider-Man and Batman scenes were fire 😏 Josh Keaton stays playing Spiders (Spider-Man, Black Spider in YJ, and now Agent Spider) and it feels good 😎

[@borjankosarac3645]

Put another way, our Mark is a good person… but not because he’s inherently predisposed to goodness but because he *chooses* to be good. Which is all the more impactful because most versions of him choose not to be… This is also why people like Superman’s character at his best yet too many others don’t get it, unfortunately. It’s because Kirkman is so good at breaking down the fundamentals of his characters that people love it, but they also expect it from everyone else even if that’s not the best idea (or the point of other stories similar to this one).

with how things are obvious parodies at times it wouldn't surprise me if viltramites work like sayans from dragonball where their human hybrids have a higher potential. he might get to a point where he can stop them without needing to kill them unlike his current point which he could probably kill them if he wasn't holding back.

The story is being adapted almost literally. There are a few changes and some are small things like the order in which some events happen. They're more or less the same but they don't happen exactly when I was expecting them. Other changes are potentially big things like Shrinking Rae surviving that encounter with the Lizard League. I read somewhere that for some reason they don't have the rights for every hero that should appear in future seasons so they probably kept her alive to fill some of the gaps left by those characters. Mark and Amber's relationship is more or less the same but I thought they handled it better in this version... well except for season 1, I was confused with how they did that part. The most important part that changed is their encounter with Anissa, in the comics that doesn't happen but adding it to the mix was a good decision and it gave them a very good and believable reason to end their relationship. Anissa does show up by surprise in the comics but under different circumstances.

I'm soooooo happy with the way they resolved the Rudy and Monster Girl situation. It wasn't just about Rudy being wrong, they *both* fucked up. And they were able to be real with each other and admit how terrible they both are at communication. lol Angstrom's story is way more tragic than I expected. I thought he was going to somehow turn around and team-up with the good guys... nope. He started out with the best of intentions, had a plan to help fight the good fight... and then it backfired, driving him insane with rage. There was nothing Mark could have done, the man couldn't be reasoned with. Even if Mark managed to knock him out and imprison him... he could just portal out in a second. There is a silver lining, though. Angstrom taught Mark a lesson that he absolutely needed: Mark needs to learn how to fight without holding back, but to also have enough presence-of-mind to still remain in control of himself. Man, I cannot *wait* to see how Allan and Nolan break out of jail! This was a team up that I didn't expect but am absolutely excited to see!

Go see if this universe has Martians. Go look for Allen and the C.O.P. Or even go find the Viltrumites. Plus, someone out there could have the ability to send you home.

The only real change from the comic from this Episode, was Spider-Man. In the comics, they had a full on crossover, where Invincible appeared in an issue of Marvel Team-up.

If you’ve watched all of Season 1 & 2, you could safely read up to issue 41 of the comics and not spoil any future events, a few events from the show would be missing and still yet to come. There’s also a Teen Team origin special, I’d skip that as it may get adapted, like the Atom Eve special did. It’s pretty much a remixed version of the comic, all the major story beats are there. But I will say that they serve very different mediums, the comic goes a lot wider and has a lot more commentary on the superhero genre itself, pulling from an even wider world of characters. The show goes deeper into the emotional side of things with somewhat fewer characters. The story for the show might be a little to slow for comics, and the version of the comics might be a bit too chaotic for TV as a direct adaptation. My 2 cents! Been very much enjoying your reactions and thoughts as someone who hasn’t read the books! Reminds of my days waiting for the comic to come out every month or so. Anyhow, read the books, but only up to 41! And then do a comparison video! Cheers!

The Immortal was Abraham Lincoln but the literal Holy Grail in his cabin would suggest he was also … someone else. …

[@aarrgghh]

after last episode's animation callout, i can't help thinking that mark's, debbie's and nolan's bruised right eyes must be another of their aforementioned time-and-labor-saving cheats ...

A better answer to 'How do you know the difference?' would have been saying 'The bad guys don't feel as bad as you do right now.'

Great Reaction to a great Season 2 Wrap up. As Traumatic as this was to all included. Mark And everyone are Just Getting started to be traumatized! We are About a Quarter way through the Invincible comic run, Timeline a LOT OF STORIES LEFT! And It only Gets More insane from here on in! And this Is a Set up Episode. And a end and a beginning Also, what happened in this Episode is Just the Well .... lol. I would say Check out the Hard covers of Invincible. But there would be spoilers.

Levy did say that Debbie joined Nolan and Mark in many dimensions, so this Debbie, like this Mark, is different and special. Did this Debbie change Nolan, or was this Nolan capable of being changed? Was it Debbie or Amber or Eve or something else that made this Mark stand against his father, and that was what started Nolan on his own path? Or was it always in this Nolan, since he wrote about the way to defeat the Empire in his books?

[@Tantalus010]

They got me with Levy. Given his backstory and the build-up with him early in the season, I really thought they were going to do more with him. Maybe they still will: they shied away from showing us his body, which is odd considering that this show has never shied away from gruesomeness before. Everybody glosses over the "shut up, Rex," line from future Eve. She said Rex, not Rudy. Why is Rex talking like Rudy and wearing his armor? Also, when Nolan said he misses his wife, my immediate thought was, "which one?"

[@sterlingprince2025]

Another fun fact, Spiderman actually tried to join and help Mark, hence when Mark came back he had a web on his back, Spiderman tagged him with web to be pulled through the portal and follow Mark but didn't make it through

[@verynice5574]

18:31 we need a spinoff that follows what happened to those two.

[@Eiglayn_Misthios]

And now we wait two years for the first half of season 3 >.

[@guiffisch]

now we wait for probably another 2 years to get season 3 😢

[@nihlify]

I read somewhere they had prepared for season 3 in some way so it wouldn't be as long of a wait (like maybe 1 year between seasons). Take it with a grain of salt, not sure what the original source were

[@guiffisch]

@@nihlify oh, I hope so! I am more hyped for season 3 than I was for season 2 tbh

[@joegreene7619]

@@guiffisch It's already in development. They've been working on it while finishing the animation for season 2. There's a real chance we get it next spring.

Animation takes a loooooong time. - Filip Schaff

[@stsamurai_]

Cool detail but ALL 3 Graysons had black right eyes. Debbie and Mark from Levy hitting them, and Nolan from the torture and conditioning at the Viltrumite prison. That and “I think… I miss my wife.” really goes to show that family is stronger than you think. Also, funny story but I read the full series a while ago but forgot Kate didn’t actually die, so when she did in the show my first thought was “Why didn’t she just make the original of herself hidden and let a copy roam the world?” lmao

[@matissecallens9808]

i just realised that invincible, debby and omni man all have a black eye in this episode lol haha

[@harlankovacs6276]

"I think ... i miss my wife" "Which one ?"

[@chrisbullard5901]

What I want to see is Mark coming to the realization that him being Invincible is a full-time job as a Private Military Contractor (mercenary), and therefore, negotiate with Cecil to come up with a compensation package for everything he’s doing, and much like the GI Bill, reward him with college and benefits/opportunities to make something out of all this blood, sweat, and tears he’s putting into saving the world. But more than that, I want Cecil to come to Mark and say “I’ll give you the coaching and tech you need to leverage your skills, you give me your time and all your effort” to solve the incoming Viltrumite threat.

[@EAfirstlast]

Cecil is a shady guy and mark, rightfully, doesn't completely trust him. But he's also influenced by how his dad interacted with Cecil too.

[@TheJerbol]

A lot of people forget it but in S1 there was a bit about a mummy coming alive but then is sealed in by Mark and Nolan flying through the desert super fast. Now Mark accidentally sealed in the daughter of the original mercenary too XD

[@tenjenk]

I hope they don't die as well...

[@DramaBug01]

Am I the only person who wants a whole episode dedicated to the talking dinosaurs?

[@funnylilgalreacts]

ME TOO

[@jd1800]

Maybe Allen will meet one while he's napping on a plane. This isn't a spoiler, I'm just referencing that ridiculous scene from Jurassic Park 3.

[@petelannen3077]

They are very faithful to the source material.

[@davidstrange2482]

I Thought you were stronger is Mark saying it to Himself....The first time after he Kills ( Well i am not gonna spoil Nothing) Marvel and Invincible did a Extra cross over comic to show What Spiderman and Mark did after they Met in the Alley way...Spiderman Brings Invincible to Meet the Avengers. And Spiderman was going to help Mark with His Fight So the web On Mark's Back was Spiderman trying to Hold on to follow Mark into the Portal. But it closed to Fast the web broke. Great Easter egg Showing Mark pulling the Web off!
