I’ve found myself rereading invincible once again. It is one of my favorite comicbooks ever, and with comicbooks being my favorite medium for fiction that means that it is one of my favorite works of fiction period. Yet I feel like the show so far is an improvement on those first 30 issues.
This show somehow the most faithful adaptation of a comicbook I’ve seen to date, whilst also scrambling the order of many many plot points and changing the dynamics of many characters. Amber and William have been reworked completely, yet I feel like they’ve only been improved. Cecil started working with Mark way earlier, and was actually involved in the battle against Nolan. Robot makes his new body way earlier. There is way more time between the murder of the Guardians and the fight against Nolan, some plot points happen way earlier. These changes are obviously made so that they can compress the story down a bit and give us more character building early on, But I feel that it has mostly worked out for the better so far.
Well Omni man and BB are the ones that I think should wreck him. But like the sea monster got one shot indirectly in the comments but in the show was a tank and wouldn’t haven even been beaten without the random chain attached to it.
But the human reanimen, even if they’re worth 20 soldiers or whatever, should be obliterated by someone who can casually throw a ball around the planet on like day 3 of having his powers.
I agree, Battle Beast and Omni Man should beat him, I’m saying it’s weird to have that back to back, because part of why Omni Man’s beatdown was so bad was that was the first time in the comic Mark gets beaten like that
Yeah that is true, sorry for misunderstanding you. Season 1 of invincible was mark getting wrecked back to back to back which was zzz. Reading the comics for the first time is like— “wait, he’s supposed to win??”
