You literally transmute matter at will, you do not need to fight Killcannon just turn his robot arm into cheese or something. Your nemesis is a villain that you do not need to consider the whole cannot effect living tissue thing for even a second. That is all.
Yeah literally, just turn their brain into an acorn, she can kill omni man and every vitramite. Sure she made a mistake making a park without consulting the city and experts about the logistics, so easy way to fortify earth, is work with cecil to make a giant barrier or extremely powerful weapons. Or city planners and engineers to build shit in africa or something if she is more into that.
She can’t directly manipulate animals, otherwise she’d be doctor Manhattan
I mean, I think it was made pretty clear that she could have ended killcannon whenever she wanted, but she was using him as a human punching bag for stress relief (which ends up nearly getting two people killed).
We never find out if those people are alive…
Probably will ep 5
I think they’ll leave it as is, Eve just has to deal with risking people’s lives, whether that particular pair survives or not wouldn’t change that
so next year
I feel like they won’t kill them (like it’s just excessive beating her down). Nonetheless interested how they help bring her back (or if some odd reason they have her stay in the back line)
Probably during the sequids invasion
I get frustrated cause that’s exactly what firestorm does. He has the power to transmute matter at will or even cause a nuclear explosion, but this guy instead chooses to fight like a worse possible version of human torch.
Change the air in his lungs to water or acid.
I dont think she wants to kill him
Change his organs into candy, swap is brain for a shoe, turn his bones into liquid, or if she wanted to be humane make his limbs fall off.
She can’t do this one until she herself is pretty close to death or other special circumstances.
She can’t transmute sentient beings, due to the mental block, which is why these solutions are talking about affecting matter in or around him, rather THAN him
Don’t think she can do that seems to not be able to change air into things besides that pick energy she makes
I mean we’re debating the ambiguous powers of a god here basically but she could probably condense all of the water vapor in a given bit of space into a liquid form
I don’t think she needs to be made omnipotent or anything but can we please see some more creative uses of her powers? The possibilities are endless and she’s over here making teeny tiny pink shields. Better than the comics were about it, but still.
If i see any more Pink Bubbles im going mad
My apologies to inform you that the pink bubbles are definitely not going away.
She’s literally a reality bender and she’s stuck making useless pink shields in every fight. Disappointing!
I know right? In S2 E1 she was fighting Mark and instead of making barriers out of whatever material that dagger on that one Viltrumite ladys hair was (that can cut through Viltrimite flesh like butter) she’s instead using her flimsy pink shields that do absolutely nothing worthwhile in a real highs takes fight.
She could make anything out of thin air and instead chooses pink crystals.
If she were fighting Superman, she’d be spewing pink crystals rather than kryptonite…but then gets REALLY angry and forth come the REALLY big pimk crystals
We see her creativity outside of combat. She made a whole ass apartment building
Putting back stuff that’s missing isn’t that creative to me. I’m talking more about like creating rare compounds or minerals, utilizing chemical interactions for specific effects, turning rainwater into an anesthetic.
Yeah, but that shit definitely wasn’t up to code.
Kirkman admitted that Eve’s powers are beyond his writing capabilities. She is truly limited by his lack of imagination.
Yeah I remember him saying that and I know this sounds crazy but I disagree. Dude is an incredibly talented writer and my favourite quality of his is creativity. It’s what makes Invincible so good. He thought of all these cool weaknesses for Viltrumites but not a single one that Eve can exploit? Kind of a bummer
Their weaknesses are a) Ragnars b) scourge virus c) sensitive inner ears. Unless I’m missing something, none of those are something Eve can exploit.
Technically a virus is kinda no alive.
Even can manipulate atoms, correct?
Everything is made out of atoms.
What if Eve turns all viltrumites into water or something?
Conversely, the inner ear thing can be exploited by making a lower pressure gas be the gas inside the ear behind the membrane, or just turn some of the air in their ear canal into water and then squeeze until their ears pop.
What if she just somehow I dunno create a sonic boom anywhere she wants in the air. She can probably manipulate the pressure waves.
Forgot the laser gun that never stops. She could possibly recreate that but we do not know how they work so they could be some kind of magic/beyond eves power.
Eve can’t manipulate living things due to a mental block, I don’t think she is restricted from creating/rearranging organic matter.* Don’t we see her alter/create plant matter?
One weakness you missed, the toxin from that one flower, is just a chemical compound which is her whole thing. As someone with an innate understanding of chemistry, I don’t think her mental block would prevent her from creating matter as sharp as a Ragnar’s claws or as tough as their hide. I don’t see why she couldn’t create a synthetic form of the scourge virus (though I doubt she would ever do that one) or the flower toxin.
EDIT: *By which I mean, organic matter that isn’t currently living.
At the very least she should easily incapacitate any armored threats, possibly non-flying threats (turn ground into quicksand sort of deal) besides some really powerful ones. A beast (like Hail Mary or something like Rognarrs) would pose a lot of problems for her though.
I think it is less lack of imagination and more her not being a constant "why didnt she turn >!Thraggs !
Ok that’s pretty funny.
I really hope they acknowledge that maybe Eve unwittingly went into a sort of stale suboptimal fighting style, or at the very least try to justify her style, something like “actually the pink energy field stuff is way less exhausting for her to do than matter transmutation, so she’s defaulting to it for stamina” or some bs like that
She was fully in her ego, but even then she’s just shown to not really use matter manipulation to a significant degree which could be a speed limit of it. Nonetheless she was fucking around bc she couldn’t keep herself in check
Ngl, this is why I don’t like Eve’s powers conceptually. It’s Overpowered in the hands of someone with half a brain.
Which means having a character too stupid to use their powers in creative ways and to potential is both frustrating and just plain immersion breaking.
Lol turn him into cheesecannon
He goes from being the bad guy to the best guy.
What she really needs to do is go get an engineering degree so she can start building stuff properly. I knew the second that park went up something was going to go wrong, there is a reason we have building codes!
All true, but she also didn’t do it the first time agaisnt the flaxons, killcannon, or Doc Seismic when she wasn’t in a bad place mentally.
I’m glad I’m not the only one thinking this
Eve is either dumb as rocks, or not nearly as powerful as everybody on this sub seems to think she is. My head Cannon is that those pink barriers are much easier to create on the fly than manipulating matter.
I haven’t read the comics though, so maybe this statement looks really dumb once you take those into account.
Eve needs araki to give her some creative uses for her powers rather than her just being pink lantern
All true, but she also didn’t do it the first time agaisnt the flaxons, killcannon, or Doc Seismic when she wasn’t in a bad place mentally.
