The way Adam puts his hands up defensively when Anissa says “Killing you is not my task” was exactly how I felt in that moment

Remember the Christmas Critters in Imaginationland?

[@Rocinanteal]

The burden of knowledge was hilarious.

[@thewandering01]

The sheer terror and the way Adam was flinching every time Anissa was anywhere near Mark, or even said that she wanted to talk to him alone, tells the whole story.

[@genesispein]

The sheer terror when Anissa appears is very understandable

[@z0mbiejr.757]

25:02 This look of horror on Jay's face when Adam starts breaking down his reaction to Anissa is everything. Like for the people who don't know, the reactions to Anissa must seem very strange. Like I have a friend who hasn't read the comics, and he was like "Damn that chick was badass, I hope we see more of her" and apparently whatever expression I made when he said that made him want to pick up the comics.

[@matthewterlaga3022]

They will never show that moment form the comics, Never Ever.

Adam just freezing when Anissa showed up and just watching in horror was just great.

[@michaelproch8801]

Adam and I had the same PSTD flash when we saw Anissa make that crater at 20:30

[@Otisboy121]

Dramatic Irony? Because Remember the Christmas Critters in ImaginationLand?

[@thedudejsb]

Yeah I think it was a really clever use of dramatic irony, a way for the show to communicate with fans of the comics “we know who she is and what she does”

[@kptmaci4979]

Its the same in this comics at that point if i recall. She also pushes Mark into a crater on the end of first encounter. I guess its one of her things. So its a 'bonus' tease of other horrific scene thats gonna happen, but would probably look the same even without thay scene appearing later. Due to comic accuracy

[@georgewillis592]

​@kptmaci4979 You're absolutely right, but I think because of the severity of that moment in the comics, people see that crater and its all they can think of

[@thebrayns]

Him flinching after the "killing you is not my task" was so real😭😂😅

[@Kingj411]

I respect the hell out of Adam for not spoiling the events of the comics (which could potentially spoil the show) while also making it abundantly clear that Anissa is going to do some heinous shit in the future

[@crankfastle8138]

If they do it.

[@hoss9688]

Haha it's funny you have frustrated Charlie Morningstar as a profile pic and "respect the hell out of Adam".

[@IAmThatBit--]

​@@crankfastle8138They kinda have to. As Adam said, it has important consequences

[@jebalitabb8228]

Comic readers made sure to spoil it first themselves, so glad that industry is almost dead it’s karma for how they act

[@leanderdegoede5598]

Readers have an actual trauma response to Anissa showing up.

[@r-171]

Adam… I feel for you. So much. Anissa’s introduction sent *chills* down my spine, far more than any of Omni-Man’s fights, Battle Beast against the Guardians, or even Shrinking Rae’s ‘Death’ scene. I’m both ecstatic & absolutely *horrified* for what might happen later on.

[@jasonmarbach]

Lots of thoughts about this ep. First, the joke at the comic con perfectly captures one of the best, most iconic bits from the entire comic run and translates it amazingly to this medium. They could not possibly have bodied that harder.

[@Farsythe]

Adam's reaction to Anissa was everything. Really curious to see how they end up tackling her character in the show..

[@matthewterlaga3022]

They will never show what she does to Mark in the comics. There’d be too much backlash, that moment will be cut out entirely and they will do something different with her.

[@Farsythe]

@@matthewterlaga3022 Maybe they won't visually show what she does to him but they could allude to some things. Perhaps they will tone down certain aspects of her character.

[@ThiccBoiDaniel]

Tbh I want them to go as all out as they can, it would shed some light on male victims and maybe spark a conversation about it. They probably will tone it down/offscreen but allude to it, but it would be extremely ballsy if they didn’t.

[@Duke_Of_Havoc]

Chances of Humanity surviving the next 200 years without billions of lives lost : 18% Chances of Invincible surviving Anissa : 18% Cecil : "How poetic."

[@greenarrow.]

16:09 every single fan of the comic book must’ve had that same reaction because that caught me off guard

[@SummThingSpooky]

Poor Adam. You can see the fear in his eyes as soon as he realized who she was.

[@gabgabatz]

This episode made it clear to Mark and Amber how fragile their relationship has gotten through despite the circumstances between his life with and without superheroics. With the looming threat of Anissa and other Viltrumites, their romance had become the straw that broke the camel's back.

[@TheRonellCross]

There's never been a clearer example of a person who read the source material vs someone who's totally oblivious. haha! Nolan forced Mark to catch a train, so I think they're going to do the full Anissa story, true to form.

[@Dez861]

Adam: She's the most hated character in Invincible. Jay: Why? Me: Oh ho ho, buddy - I don't think you're in the right headspace to receive information THAT painful just yet. As horrific as it was, we rarely ever see something like that depicted THAT way in media so, in a weird way, props to Robert Kirkman.

[@Kevykev2007]

Adam's reaction to seeing Anissa was one of pure fear

[@DrWatson4]

So the big thing of the episode was Anissa showing up which got Adam shook (and for good reason) but also can we give it up for Donald this episode LETS GO 👏👏👏

[@ConcreteLogicVideo]

There is an important reveal about the Viltrumites that I think HAS to happen before they even consider her doing that thing that we can't say.

[@Observer-O]

Which is that?

[@Emryslibrarian]

@@Observer-O They don’t have to fart. Like ever. 😂

[@ConcreteLogicVideo]

@@Observer-OHmmm...how to say this with minimal spoilers... Her motivations for her actions are not strictly personal. Viltrumites have a specific goal she is trying to contribute to, albeit in an especially messed up way. If they do that scene before revealing those other motivations, it would make an already touchy subject seem to come completely out of nowhere.

[@kptmaci4979]

I think it is explain in multiple ways much earlier. Just read the comics m8. Whole major reveal Nolan will make to Allen in that prison is there are only around 50 viltrumites left, so its pretty obvious they need to reproduce. The thing about "forcing themselves" onto weaker individuals is only explained though after Annissa violates Mark. It doesnt need more explanation. It fits unfortunatelt quite understandably into viltrumites barbaric invaders nature... its vile and self explanatory, so i think it will be more of a shock when it happens and Nolan will justify it after everything, like its natural for him. It will only force Mark to change viltrum ways later on. Its important part of it all to additionaly show how Nolan, even after all this still is very much flawed by old ways of viltrum. Even after changing so much already

[@LCliffhanger]

Actually, as a comic fan, I love Anissa and given the crater Mark was in, part of me was thinking "are they gonna skip straight to "that scene!?" and personally, I'm actually really looking forward too it and seeing all the ramifications unfold, especially how it affects Mark and others around him but I also really love how Anissa's story unfolds as well, and while the show does make changes, they've all been for the better so far, so I'm really looking forward to how everything unfolds, especially Anissa's story.

[@danielsbar373]

Adam must be forgetting. Mark did meet Anissa around this time in the comics, but the circumstances were slightly different. He was getting lunch with his mom when Anissa showed up before. Also, I'm surprised Adam didn't say or do anything when Anissa mentioned that "he's coming".

[@danielsbar373]

@kptmaci4979 I wasn't making a pun, I was surprised he didn't acknowledge the person that is coming since he made a face of acknowledgement when he was mentioned before.

[@chrisrobinson5869]

Just watching Adam go through the range of emotions, trying to hold back, maintaining Jay's ignorance/fresh enjoyment was a sight to see. Equally impressive was the show's portrayal of PTSD, a really worthwhile and delicate telling of the bigger story

[@Otisboy121]

16:10 😨………😰Oh Fuck,……..Anissa’s here…….

[@makechoices2618]

Watching Adam realize who she was and then being terrified that she was going to do IT at the end of the fight was something else.

[@demondragonshi5161]

I was curious about why Adam and people of the comment section were acting the way there were so I spoiled myself and went to the wiki. All I have to say now is "I understand".

[@emdocc]

I feel like Adam, and all of us comic readers, were so shocked by Anissa that we barely caught the Conquest set-up.

[@TargetZeroOne]

One more layer to the joke that has been pointed out by a lot of other channels about the Seance Dog author is that while he didn't look like him in the comics, this one is designed to look like Robert Kirkman.

[@vincible45]

I thought it was Ryan Ottley since he’s the one who usually wears the cap

[@jd1800]

It doesn't look like him at all, also Robert Kirkman is a writer, not an illustrator. Ryan Ottley makes way more sense.

[@KorvasYT]

16:13 curse of knowledge

[@johnjoe672]

Anissa shows up at basically the same time as in the books and appears consistently throughout the story. The you-know-what doesn't happen until the last third of the series.

[@jd1800]

Last fourth even.

[@they.m.o.podcast9974]

As someone who HAS NOT read the comics but KNOWS who Anissa is and what she does, I can’t tell you how much I’ve been anticipating this reaction ALL DAY. lol. I partly wanted to skip to it while watching because Adam’s reaction the scene holds the most weight to me of all those who react to this show. He’s been the most important person to watch react because of how he responds to things he knows that we don’t, and also his facial expressions/side looks at Jay. I sometimes go back and watch their reaction to season 1 just for “the scene”. Great stuff. That scene/moment in this episode and reaction will definitely go down as one of the best next to Episode 6 of Squid Games. 😂

[@The4thSandersonSister]

When Anissa showed up, I literally yelled, "NO! NO! I THOUGHT WE HAD MORE TIME BEFORE HER!"

[@megacrashthehedgehog5377]

Adam's reaction to Anissa showing up perfectly represents how all comic fans felt seeing the character finally make the jump to the show. Right now I'm just interested to see how they plan to approach...certain aspects of her character later on.

[@goat1408]

16:33 . . Adam: OH NO! . . Kool-Aid Man: OH YEAAAAA

[@markfuston2714]

I've gotta say, I am really happy that no one is outright spoiling the thing in the comments of this, I've seen lots of reactions where everyone immediately jumps down and starts talking about it. This might have been one of my favorite reactions I've seen to her appearance as well..lol, we got both sides of the spectrum.

[@goat1408]

This is when she popped up....because she came before you know who....at this point....we had no idea she would do what she did later.....

[@alylee]

I have never seen Adam have an anxiety attack like this. I can relate because I dont even know who Anissa is and i personally panicked.

[@vincible45]

There is a sense of VERY cruel irony that the actress who does Becca Butcher from The Boys is the same person who voices Anissa…Iykyk

[@GameknightJ14]

“(Without us)Human civilization has less than an 18% chance of surviving the next two centuries without billions of losses.” She says as if the 7 billion people on the planet are going to even survive one century.

[@Dunybrook]

What's so bad about Anissa? Allen seems to have her number and is outsmarting her. That guy with cyborg eye is the one who has me worried.

[@DCComicsGamer]

I haven't read the comics, but I don't think I've ever seen Adam that terrified and serious, and now I'm scared too!!

[@JHawleyStan]

I have been checking the page all day just to see Adam’s reaction to Anissa, and it did not disappoint

[@jamesmayes4351]

Adam, she was in the comics once before the event. She showed up basically the same way, without the kaju. Hopefully the big guy is in the next episode, but I guess next season.

[@tomjordan4627]

[@alexanderthered5603]

[@ImInTheTub]

That OMG from Allen really got me 😂

[@msbkaioken136]

I'm pretty sure both scenes with anissa happened at around this time in the comic and also very similarly as well. I don't know why people always think she's in like one scene and that's all her character begins and ends with.

[@Wouldyoukindly4545]

"Fun" fact. Anissa is voiced by the actress who played Billy's wife in the Boys. Let that sink in a minute.
