5:35 "Invincible knows how to be utterly sincere with its writing" Beautifully said! I was blown away when Mark's mom directly referenced being referred to as a pet and then processing how it made her feel. Then after the episode I was wondering why i was blown away, because why wouldn't she mention that? It's a horrible thing to hear from your spouse. And then I realized, even if it's simple and obvious... How many other shows would DO that? I'm so glad Invincible is back.

Robot & MG's relationship is based upon mutual empathy for each other's situation: Being "trapped" in a body that sends society very incorrect signals about who and what they are. MG is a human woman of over 20 years of age, yet she appears as either some kind of demi-human monster or as a girl in her early teens. Robot was not a machine, but a remote device operated by a super genius trapped in a life support device; and even now he's still a 30-odd year old super genius in a 14 year old's body, and suddenly experiencing life firsthand.

I think Robot was only not participating in battle because he couldn't. I think he genuinely wants to be there instead of just his drones. He just didn't realize how difficult it would be psychologically for him, since he never experienced a real battle. As Monster Girl said, this was just a game to him so far. As someone who has played zombie video games without breaking a sweat and had the opportunity to play one in VR, seeing a zombie in person is far more terrifying than seeing one on the screen. And I didn't expect it. Likely what Robot is going through right now.

I was really surprised that they made Angstrom Levy's supervillain origin happen in the first episode. I remember that whole plotline taking way longer in the comics, but I love the way the show did it. It makes Angstrom more important to Mark's development, so I'm excited to see how they further improve their nemesis dynamic in later episodes. Season 1 took a lot of stuff that was mid in the comics and made it really good, and now we're moving onto stuff that rocks in the source material for season 2.

i think despite mark and eve being endgame, its a good move to have them interact as friends. Its just a shame that amber was handled as poorly as she was, and that markxeve is as overt as it is, because otherwise it'd do a good job of portraying romance at its emotional core, rather than just the typical boy meets girl story. and obviously people do find healthy life-long relationships by actively seeking dates and junk, but I don't think theres enough stories that simply have a friendship evolve into romance without telegraphing it miles away, or completely erasing the foundational friendship that made the relationship possible. plus i think itd be good for the meathead male viewers that typically watch superhero shows, if they're the type to not value any relationship with a woman if its not romantic or sexual.

@@draykohunter6805 So spoilers, yeah in the comics it was mutual, but the whole reason behind the breakup was that she couldn't keep up with his superhero lifestyle and felt left behind because of it when she found out. Show Amber however got pissed because she felt like she was entitled to learn Mark's secret and will have presumably have been living with the secret for a while by the time the writers get around to breaking them up. Show Amber actively wanted to be involved with a superhero, she even said him leaving for the superheroics wasn't a problem so much as the lying, so the whole "I just can't relate to superhero you and I think we should separate" isn't going to cut it.

It's also possible that the cracks could be symbolic of Mark's mental health.

One of the things with interpreting symbolism like this is that there may be no right answer, or even every answer might be right.

So I revisited the comics to see how the aftermath of Omni Man vs Mark was handled there vs the show and god, this is yet another indicator of how the show is such an improvement of the source material. The show dives more into the guilt that Mark feels along with the fear of becoming like his father along with delving more into how Nolan's betrayal has affected Mark and Debbie. I also like the show version of Cecil so much better than the comic version. Both are morally gray individuals who'll do whatever it takes to keep Earth safe but the show has Cecil showcase more genuine compassion and empathy. Unlike in the comic, Cecil is actually concerned about Mark's mental state with him wanting to actually heal before trying to be a hero again. I prefer morally gray characters who despite doing shady things, isn't unfeeling monster and can actually showcase empathy and recognize that some of the things they do are messed up. Really curious to see how they're going to adapt the events of Invincible #49 and #50.

Cecil sometimes seems to have a personal code that he's willing to break for loftier goals and he sometimes acts within a frame of hierarchy and law but the broad purview he's granted within that system makes it one can exploit rather than be limited by.

The only part that I'm not looking forward to is how it ends because chances are its going to end with one of them being the bad guy in some way instead of the preferable scenario of them just slowly drifting apart and just breaking up. I'm also hoping that by that point amber is seen in a better light by the audience, because I hate it when characters are hated because of bad writing decisions and not cause they are meant to be.

Totally agree. I’ve never read the comics, but from what I’ve been told, Amber had much more consistent, fair writing. I think the creators decided to make her unlikable in the show (setting HER up to be the bad guy) just so the audience won’t be sad about her eventual breakup with Mark. Which I hate. The writers really underestimated the audience with that choice; and in my opinion, is the only big flaw in season 1. They may have accepted some of that criticism- She had good scenes with Mark in S2E1, and I’m hoping that will be the case with her on the show, going forward.
@kaylasansone9806

i think the writers intentionally made amber to be unlikeable in the show so the audience would collectively root for mark x eve rather than mark x amber. and i believe that did happen prior to his fight with omni man in most other realities, which resulted in mark following omni man and the world being destroyed. i read someone else’s comment stating that 99% of realities resulted in invincible turning bad, and i feel like mark’s romantic relationship status at the time of the invincible x omni man fight had a significant influence on his decision. mark would be way more likely to support the idea that humans are inferior and insignificant to super humans if he was dating another super human. amber keeps mark down to earth and demonstrates real human experiences, which keeps mark connected to his humanity. think about it, amber changed atom eve’s whole perspective and ignited her insatiable desire to save others just by hanging out together one time

I know that Amber isn't "end game" and I don't really care, I wanted to see some nice moments with her & Mark before she ultimately leaves. Mark doesn't need any additional drama right now. But somehow, she still came off as manipulative with the whole letter reveal. I get that it was intended to be playful but think: she purposefully switched the letters to get Mark's reaction to her letter. Then said she didn't believe him when he said he wanted to go. She KNOWS how badly he wants that. Even Cecil knows. Why would she go through that whole song and dance? I don't think it would've been that bad if she showed the letter maybe 1/2 through, but making him "prove" what he said just didn't feel right. I was really trying to throw her a bone, I don't hate her I'm just amazed at how they keep putting her in a bad light.

I think part of the reason Mark is so depressed has to do with his desire to help people. He doesn’t just want to not hurt people, he wants to save them. And not being able to do anything while his dad used him as a human battering ram has got to leave him feeling powerless. A feeling that plays into his guilt because he’s supposed to be better than that, at least in his mind.

Just have him not be able to open portals while under the machine; you can justify it by his mind being actively altered.

As someone who's read Invincible to the end: Most of Amber's stuff is new, so I don't know how that's gonna end in this, because they're stretching out Mark and Eve's relationship much longer. The arc is multiversal heavy, it just at the moment where media companies are finally catching up with comics. They explain Donald very nonchalantly in the books too, basically like everything in the world has one, but they explain and move on.

It’s especially very effective because it’s clear Debbie and Mark just keep avoiding the break downs that they both are having. They’re trying their best to move on with their lives but they’re both not okay. Regardless of what Nolan has done, he was still a huge part of both of their lives. He was Mark’s hero and he was the love of Debbie’s life. With him gone, it’s a huge hole that can’t be filled. It’s just really sad to watch despite everything that’s happened.
