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.

    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.

      Kirkman admitted that Eve’s powers are beyond his writing capabilities. She is truly limited by his lack of imagination.

        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 !

        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.

            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.

            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.

            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.

        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.

      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
