    Yeah, in the comic he just called them all in a room then killed them before they really even knew what was happening. I think it all happened in one page. I remember reading after watching season 1 and being like “that’s it?”.

      Lmao, legit. Same for me. Saw clips of the show before I read it. This is probably gonna be the one of only few edge cases the show is more brutal/r-rated than the comic.

      But when I was binge reading it my reactions were mostly less like “That’s it?” but more “Damn. What the fuck?”. Invincible really takes you for a ride.

        Yeah they definitely made up for it. I think it was just an early mistake in the writing Kirkman wanted to refine. It really doesn’t make sense that he considered the guardians a threat when it was that fucking easy to kill them all. The show did it much better by having them actually put up a decent fight and make Omni-man collapse from exhaustion at the end.

        I’m so hyped for the action scenes and large scale fights that come later in the series.
