speaking of Flash, that asshole DA Sinclair was voiced by none other than Ezra Miller, and of course Mark has won fights. The only fight he acually did lose WAS against Thokk, and he's OP as hell
Rick being turned into a robot was low-key heartbreaking. You could see him getting abducted a mile away. like, all the way back when Nerd-Creep is introduced in the classroom.
Telling your first girlfriend that you're a superhero, feels like the same thought process as the "We're gonna get married and stay together for the rest of our lives" mentality when you're young and in a relationship. Feels like a real bad idea.

Exactly this. I hope they do it justice. They are so far. Once the reveals and bigger characters turn up like Conquest some of these reviewers are going to lose their minds
I feel like this episode also shined a light on what Atom Eve's powers can really do. Last episode the GDA was trying to find Omi-Mans weakness through Marks blood. So since Atom Even can manipulate matter at the sub-atomic level could her powers rearrange the physiology of a Viltrumite and make them weak??
@@mike-xy3lx yeah they can be seen that way but honestly a vast majority of comic characters have asspull powers and plot armor honestly so it doesn’t bother me that much.
It definitely throws a wrench into things. Eve's father expected to have a normal child but now you got one with powers. Even Nolan wasn't sure Mark was ever going to get powers so he was prepared to just have a normal son with no powers, that's why he said "Well, now it changes things". Meaning he was planning something all along in accordance to the notion that Mark would never have his powers, but now that he does, his original plan is out the window and now he has to think on his feet which it appears is increasingly violent and unplanned. I actually theorize that if Mark hadn't gotten his powers, Nolan wouldn't have killed the Guardians of the Globe (or at least not until later perhaps). It seemed Nolan had a plan he was following, but because Mark got his powers, it changed his plans, making him have to go into doing something rash. I'm sure he planned on killing the Guardians of the Globe, but just not in the way we know it went down. Although, he is a guy who punches first and asks questions later so perhaps it would've been the same outcome regardless.
My thinking of why Nolan (Omni-Man) didn't kill Art is simply because deep down inside, Nolan considers Art as his is friend. Enough of a friend to drink beers and to reminisce and trade stories with. For the old Guardians of the Globe, Nolan's asshole comment about them being "co-workers" sort of rings true in that I doubt that he spent much time with them so it was easier for him to simply kill them without having regrets. To him, they were just faceless obstacles in the way of his objective. Art, Debbie and Mark are different in that he has bonds with them so seeing if Nolan will kill them or not in future episodes is what makes this much more faceted and riveting than him being a predictable, raging psychopath (ala. Homelander) imo.
Mark really really annoyed me this episode, you would think that ego was beaten out of him last episode by battle beast, that the world doesnt revolve around him. And that he would learn a lot more about perspective and to use his brain. But when (William) his best friend needed him most, and was trying to tell him someone he loved was was in danger, and tried to talk reason into him about the cyborg fight from earlier. He didnt listen, ignored william, and it almost got his best friend killed, and got William's Boyfriend lobotomized and cyborged.
To be fair, he’s a teenager, and romance at that age has a tendency to trump the importance of other things. Also, immediately upon getting a call from William, he literally left the party to go to him even after seeing amber there speaking with another guy, which likely had mark assuming the worst case scenario, so ultimately he still chose to go after his friend opposed to being selfish.
EXACTLY. Mark is a bitch for letting Amber get in his feelings so much. Amber is kind of an unreasonable bitch herself who expected him with all of his injuries to help fight the cyborg when she didn't do anything herself. So why is Mark simping so much over her.
@@bdpchamp i guess but he was literally about to hang up on his friend until he saw someone right behind him, he was seconds away from getting his friend killed i think that’s what pissed me off the most.
For all the folks who want mark to tell Amber he's Invincible, dude is a teenager. He's going to realistically date a fair amount of women throughout his life. He can't just go around telling every single person he loves. That's risky for all parties. So, he tells Amber, they break up after however long. He meets another girl, they fall in love, so he tells her too?
i get what you’re saying.. but man are they dangling this relationship in our faces. If they break up then cool just break up, but it seems like Mark has almost told her about 3 times now so what’s going on? It’s just so inconvenient for both parties so why haven’t they just moved in by now or him say something so he doesn’t lose her.
@@jakewill5458 well, the show is about him so any meaningful relationship he has (that he puts effort into) will be "dangled in our faces." He likely knows that he can't going around telling any and everyone. He wants to, but maybe he's mature enough in that sense to see the bigger picture when it comes to who he can share his identity with and most importantly how many times he can afford to do it.
Why do you think that it isn’t the strongest, out of curiosity? Things are starting to come to a head now but it didn’t have any crazy shock endings like 1 and 5.
This show is the craziest show ever. This is literally breaking barriers in the superhero wave. By the way, Robert Kirkman confirmed that this is going to be live action as well. Cannot wait for the live action versions. Love the reactions😁✌❤
@@albertmohan3272 Yep it's confirmed for sure. The creator of the comics of which this show is based on confirmed it. He also created the Walking Dead as well.
Aaron, you were right the first time. Mark is the most vulnerable person in the series. He's new to being a superhero and get's his ass beat often, but he's also new in love and relationships and doesn't really know how to navigate those waters either. On top of that, he has no idea whatsoever what is going on between his parents, and the fact that the father he loves and idolizes is a stone-cold murderer. All of this makes him a very vulnerable person. As someone said earlier in the season, he's quite vincible.
Whats funny is in the comics he is invincible. He wins every fight in the comics because he is a comic nerd and fights using comic logic. Basically image Deku if he suddenly gained all these powers. In the show they are taking away that he is a comic nerd and that he is really good at being a Super Hero from the off which makes him a bit to confident and when the turn happens and he does get his epic beat down its a surprise. Battle Beast doesn't show up till a good bit later in the comics, far later than they are at in the show.
About Eve: “Is she going to turn evil?” Thinking about it tho, cause if you really think about it: she is practically Scarlet Witch, but, pink.. her powers are very powerful but have become repressed to just the bubbles. In this very episode you saw her make a door disappear. Her reality warping powers could totally make her become corrupted with wanting to change the world. Eve is my fave, and this show is awesome 👌🏻
I was thinking the same that she could end up being some kind of Dark Phoenix/Scarlet Witch being. She seems like she could be a major threat if they went that route.
I feel like Mark hasn't really developed trust issues since the last episode. I would of thought he would of been against Eve helping the little person and be a more of a Big picture kind of guy. Anyways Still love the show.
Mark isn’t aware that Titan took the position as the new boss after machinehead’s arrest, that all happened while he was hospitalized, so it makes sense that his sense of trust wouldn’t have been shattered by that situation as he likely perceived his beat down from battle beast being a consequence of machineheads scheming as opposed to Titan’s.
@@bdpchamp And even in reality Battle Beast wasn’t likely really on Titan’s fault either, I doubt Titan was aware that Machinehead would have gotten someone like Battle Beast on his payroll considering how close Titan came to dying too.
Dude with the red cyborg eye reminds me of the one guy in the squad of five random enemies that fought batman and redhood in the animated "under the red hood" movie.
I love this world so far. Nothing is out of bounds when it comes to fun super tropes. Magic, curses, mummies, cloning, aliens, mad scientists, tropey evil overlords... this has everything just being out there. It is so fun to watch.
They actually established his powers in the first episode with the flashback to his planet! Super speed Flight Super strength (Just the way he uses those 3 make him basically nuclear) So no super hearing :)
the Robot cares because of the conversation he had with the beast girl about sacrifice. the idea she is giving away her youth everytime she transforms. he connects and trusts her most than the others in the team.
If Invincible wasn't recovering from his tangle with Battle Beast, those cyborgs wouldn't even have made him bleed. In the comics, they were strong enough to make their punches feel like a strong slaps on Mark, but that's about it.
I feel like Robot is trying to make a human body with Rex's DNA and I feel like everyone is just assuming he's 100% machine. Like they don't actually know very much about him.
Pretty much. He's in love with the girl and she's seen that she has an attraction to REX so Robot will put himself into Rex's body. The question is though, when he gets his body, what will he do with Rex?
I think when it comes to Amber’s character and her relationship with Mark, she’s more apprehensive and on guard than investigative. She eluded to having a bad relationship in the past last episode. Plus from her perspective Mark’s just not being a reliable boyfriend lol. So I see it as a bit more realistic that there would be certain things she wouldn’t see that are obvious to others. A lot of relationships are like that in real life, other ppl tend to see things that those in the relationship can’t upon further inspection. All in all I really like what they’re doing with her character. Already she’s way more fleshed out here than she is in the comics. And yes, indeed I feel like she was always meant to be the Gwen Stacy of Invincible. I mean, in the comics she even has blonde hair lol. Interested to see if they follow some future storylines with Amber. Without giving anything away in the comics, things do get a bit rough.
Indeed. I get the Flaxan Leader, which is from another dimension and had time to evolve the tech enough to prepare to face Invincible specifically. I get Battle Beat, the dude is OP in every way. But if Mark wasn't still recovering from that beatdown, he would have taken no bleeding damage from those cyborgs whatsoever, since that's how it went down in the comics. In a fully recovered state, he is actually Invincible against anything from Earth at the moment
@@diegopansini3152 you are reaching tho cause they didn't show any signs that he is still recovering or at least even say that. Plus his dad destroyed the planet not even a week after being hospitalized
@@arturzinurov2146 Well, I sure hope he was recovering. Because those cyborgs should've barely hurt him otherwise. Heck, they don't even make Mark bleed in the comics
@Osiria_ Rouge a bruised face is not really a sign, honestly they could've used a second to show him cringe little from straining himself while fighting them and you wouldn't be hearing from me and many other people about this, but as it stands he looks fine and the only reason he won in this episode is cause the first kiled himself and the boyfriend did the impossible and 'snapped out of it' with parts of his brain missing which you got to admit is kinda underwhelming. As it stand Mark hasn't won any meaningful fight without his dad or other powerful heroes helping him or like in this episode because the other side just quit
@@arturzinurov2146viltrumites grow with age and experience.........nolan is like a thousand times marks peak performance at this his young and untrained stage don't worry he'll grow stronger gradually.
I think the villain in this eps could be important later. Cecil is impressed by his work and the fact it gave Invincible a hard time despite being made in a sewer. While Cecil says he'll lock him up, it's far more likely he'd want him furthering his work as an Omni Man counter measure.
@@damonestephens8722 you’re right about Mark still recovering because he just got out of the hero hospital today in the episode then later got in a fight with the first cyborg and later with the three cyborgs in the sewer which the two fights hurt him more and he is not at 100%. He was probably at 40-50% during the sewer fight.
Also, it seems the guy is still alive. He may become Invincible's first nemesis. After all, that fucked up jaw would make for a great disfiguration for a potential later villain.
@@jjpark98 technically invincibles first nemesis was the flaxan that got a scar over his eye and kept returning stronger every time. sure mark didnt even consider his existence aside from when they were fighting, but every time that flaxan got back home he came back with an even harder vendetta. only thing is that marks first nemesis was handled by his dad instead of by himself
Just a heads up with Invincible, the "villain of the week" thing are just seeds for characters or story lines to show up later down the road. So many seeds are planted that just grow for next season or the season beyond. "Impressive technology though, especially for something built in a sewer" 🤔🤔🤔
Hi guys The Guardians of the Globe member known as The Immortal had a few very well known names thueout History: Sir Lancelot, Christopher Columbus and Abraham Lincoln. He's 3,000 years old, just think of him as a good guy Vandal Savage. Just think realy bad insanity after a Decapitation.
Christopher Columbus and good guy do not go in the same sentence. But I get what you mean. Yeah I think when he is down like that his brain rots a little and he goes crazy.
I feel like this episode was call "You look kinda dead" because everyone in this kinda dead on the inside. I feel like that fight messed Mark up more than realized emotionally he barely wanted to be invincible in this episode. He tore D.A. Sinclair's face clean off whenever he finds out about his dad its gonna get worse for him. Imagine how Debbie is gonna act around him smh. Mark needs to tell Amber though shes great and i want them to make it.
I feel like when Omni-man talks to Art and hands him the beer after repeating Art's line about "don't piss off your tailor" he probably holds it to where Art can't pull it away until he lets him in a "don't piss off your super hero client" moment
I think I already know OMNI-mans reason tbh like the moment he went through the portal fighting the aliens and said "Earth isn't yours to conquer" before destroying their whole race/planet in one of the earlier episodes.
Not gonna lie, Omniman is intimidating af. I swear I thought he was gonna kill Darkblood,his tailor and Debbie lmao. I was worried. I had to talk to myself like “no, he wouldn’t just kill people he loves.....right?” 😂 after he killed the guardians I just don’t know anymore. And Rick and that jock being turned into cyborgs was so sad. Like I was genuinely sad for them and William. And Marks only option is to either tell Amber or leave her alone. Because right now it just looks to her like he doesn’t care and he’s hiding something because he keeps leaving her and not telling her anything after telling her he’s gonna be there AFTER she gave him another chance. She deserves better
Whether they stay together or not I think Amber deserves the truth. I'm not saying spill it to every girl he may date - but Amber has the misfortune of being the first girl he tries to juggle hero and relationship with so his attempts lack balance. She's proven herself to be one of the most grounded and level headed characters in the show - I'm sure she's more trustworthy than William, as loyal as he is.
5:17 I wouldn’t be surprised if she does. Her reality-warping powers look like they could be a problem. She definitely gives me the vibes of someone who could go down a Scarlet Witch/Dark Phoenix path.
Mark beat Titan and the laser dude (twice). He beat the leader of the Flaxens before the Hulkbuster armor, and if it wasn't for Battle Beast he would have rocked all the henchmen in the last episode.
My guess is that when they inebitblably break up, we're going to find out that she did actually figure out that Mark was Invincible, perhaps even at the college. In reality, she's pissed, not because she actually thinks he's a coward who ditched her, but because he keeps making excuses and refused to tell her the truth. She played along to protect his secret identity, but she won't be prepared to continue a relationship with someone who felt the need to lie to her. I won't ve upset if he just tells her, but this seems like the best way to both respect her intelligence and the story as it's been told so far. It also drives home the whole difficulty of being in relationships with regular civilians like Eve warned Mark going into his relationship with Amber.
I say the villain ties in by making robots to take out Omni-man, ala Sentinels for X-men. Cecil showed a lot of interest in the fact they almost took out Mark...
so it may seem like a villain of the week, but in the comics da sinclair and his cyborg guys are a big villian, thats why they showed he's still alive, same with battle beast, they both come back.
It's not that Mark is necessarily weak, it's more like he's getting into situations that are beyond his abilities. This show subverts the idea of a hero who is ready to take on every challenge. Instead we a character grow both as a person and a hero. There's more to being Invincible than just taking a punch.
Its not subverting anything though. Everyone expects the new hero kid to get his ass kicked. They don't expect him to take as much damage as he does. In the comics it does subvert the idea of the new hero being untrained, unskilled, and needing to spend months trying his powers. Mark in the comics is ready to go from the off. He is a comic nerd and he acts like one. He knows how to fight bad guys based off the comics he reads. He has the moral fortitude of the characters he reads and so know show to be a good guy hero pretty well off. Hell in the comics Mark does not take any serious damage till like issue 11-13 or so.
21:22 pretty much, the story is very reminiscent of coming of age superhero stories, the main one being spider-man but there are other teenage heroes and characters in general who have been through pretty much the same thing. The story is from the early 2000’s so it’s not surprising what i really can’t figure out tho, is why Nolan killed them. Does he want to conquer earth and took out the strongest foes? or is there another reason?
Damn those cyborgs gave Invicible a beating, but not as bad as how he got it in the last episode. He did pretty well considering he just got out of the hospital not that long ago. For a moment I was thinking I might be wrong about Amber and then she pulls that BS with Mark. Mark needs to cut his losses and move on. If she can't see what a great guy she's got then she doesn't deserve to have him. Men have to know their worth just as much as women do. Atom Eve knows his worth and probably would've dated Mark if she wasn't with Rex at the time. I'm happy Atom Eve is using her powers to help people. She's doing the same thing I'd do if I had her power type. I don't get why none of the other top tier teams aren't trying to recruit her. She'd be one of the top people on my list to form a team with. Telling Amber about him being Invincible is not a good idea after 3 months no matter if you're in high school, college or a working adult. You need to know that someone is going to keep their cool and not reveal your secret once they find out and Amber has not shown she is that person to me. She is always getting on Mark's butt at every little mistake he makes. Mark's friend has proven he can keep his secret and has known him for most likely a long time. I don't think he was friends with Amber at the beginning of the show. I think Aaron is right about Amber probably sleeping with that guy. It definitely felt like she did something she might have regretted, like she knows she messed up. Most humans do messed up stuff when they are upset with something or someone. Also I wouldn't have given a second thought to saving my friend that was in trouble or that mess with Amber. I would've decided to find Rick at the very beginning because I would want someone to do that for me if I was in the same situation. Rick would've been safe, never had gotten cyborged and William wouldn't have been captured. You can always find someone to care about in a relationship again that is a better fit for you, but good friends are hard to come by so you do whatever you can to protect them. Enjoyed the reaction, looking forward to the last two episodes and your reactions to them. 👍👍✌out
There are a few smaller flaws with this show but the biggest one is 12:15 The fact that this blood is the oldest on the suit doesnt mean shit. The only thing that suggests is that Omniman *hit* his target first, not that he actually attacked first, they couldve attacked him with a 100 people 100 times each and if he dodged them all and *then* counter attacked that would still have been the oldest blood on his costume. Obviously they were right, Omniman did indeed strike first but it was mere coincidence, really sloppy logic.
My mentor in high school used to tell me, "Better the brothers before you butter the Bettys." Mark should have been more compassionate and loyal to William.
I think the DA is not done yet. As Cecil has told that tech he made in the sewer gave mark a run. Imagine the tech he could make with the help of Cecil's resources. That might be a contingency for Nolan. And another thing is - Eve has the ability to alter things at a molecular level right? as she can do so with the living cells like we saw in this ep. So essentially, can't she engineer on viltrumite blood cells and find a flow in it or make a venom for it?
Is it just me, or could the ending of the first episode have shaken unfamiliar people so much to the point where it's the main reason why I'm seeing so many guesses from reactors of characters having a hidden agenda and/or doing far worse than what seems likely? Something about the fear of Amber immediately sleeping with another dude so fast just has me thinking of that.
i dont think he was contemplating between amber and will, so much as he just felt dissapointed that he couldnt talk but knew he had to help his friend. Not much better, but it's still notable (at least to my pedantic ass lol)
The Robot has feelings for the monster girl cos, he can relate to not having people see him for who he really is on the inside (him having actual feelings but looking like a robot and her being in her mid 20s but looking like a little girl).

i get what you’re saying.. but man are they dangling this relationship in our faces. If they break up then cool just break up, but it seems like Mark has almost told her about 3 times now so what’s going on? It’s just so inconvenient for both parties so why haven’t they just moved in by now or him say something so he doesn’t lose her.
@@jakewill5458 well, the show is about him so any meaningful relationship he has (that he puts effort into) will be "dangled in our faces." He likely knows that he can't going around telling any and everyone. He wants to, but maybe he's mature enough in that sense to see the bigger picture when it comes to who he can share his identity with and most importantly how many times he can afford to do it.
"Hey. I'm Batman. Would you like to know my... secret identity?" - HISHE
Good point🤔
True he can’t pull a Batman and tell every single chick he goes to bed with
I took Cecil complimenting the bad guy in this episodes work as a hint to the fact he might try to get him to build a machine to kill Omni man
Kind of..you'll see if the story is allowed to play out over a few seasons!
isn’t the strongest episode but a fun one by my means
agreed
Why do you think that it isn’t the strongest, out of curiosity? Things are starting to come to a head now but it didn’t have any crazy shock endings like 1 and 5.
I wouldn’t say fun. This may not be the strongest but this episode was crazy
Not every episode can have gore and mass murder
this was actually one of my favorite episodes
7:33 "Where's Flash!?" (points at Sinclair) "Right there. He's voiced by Ezra Miller."
That just blew my mind I had no clue
This show is the craziest show ever. This is literally breaking barriers in the superhero wave. By the way, Robert Kirkman confirmed that this is going to be live action as well. Cannot wait for the live action versions. Love the reactions😁✌❤
Is that real news or just rumours???
@@albertmohan3272 It's confirmed, they even revealed some of the casting.
@@albertmohan3272 Yep it's confirmed for sure. The creator of the comics of which this show is based on confirmed it. He also created the Walking Dead as well.
I can’t wait
The live action almost certainly wont be as good. The contrast between bright and colourful with the bloody hyperviolence is necessary.
Aaron, you were right the first time. Mark is the most vulnerable person in the series. He's new to being a superhero and get's his ass beat often, but he's also new in love and relationships and doesn't really know how to navigate those waters either. On top of that, he has no idea whatsoever what is going on between his parents, and the fact that the father he loves and idolizes is a stone-cold murderer. All of this makes him a very vulnerable person. As someone said earlier in the season, he's quite vincible.
Whats funny is in the comics he is invincible. He wins every fight in the comics because he is a comic nerd and fights using comic logic. Basically image Deku if he suddenly gained all these powers. In the show they are taking away that he is a comic nerd and that he is really good at being a Super Hero from the off which makes him a bit to confident and when the turn happens and he does get his epic beat down its a surprise. Battle Beast doesn't show up till a good bit later in the comics, far later than they are at in the show.
About Eve: “Is she going to turn evil?”
Thinking about it tho, cause if you really think about it: she is practically Scarlet Witch, but, pink.. her powers are very powerful but have become repressed to just the bubbles. In this very episode you saw her make a door disappear. Her reality warping powers could totally make her become corrupted with wanting to change the world. Eve is my fave, and this show is awesome 👌🏻
I was thinking the same that she could end up being some kind of Dark Phoenix/Scarlet Witch being. She seems like she could be a major threat if they went that route.
jus watched it, dang i’m tryna see more Mark and amber😭, and good for Eve for making things right
I feel like Mark hasn't really developed trust issues since the last episode. I would of thought he would of been against Eve helping the little person and be a more of a Big picture kind of guy. Anyways Still love the show.
Mark isn’t aware that Titan took the position as the new boss after machinehead’s arrest, that all happened while he was hospitalized, so it makes sense that his sense of trust wouldn’t have been shattered by that situation as he likely perceived his beat down from battle beast being a consequence of machineheads scheming as opposed to Titan’s.
@@bdpchamp And even in reality Battle Beast wasn’t likely really on Titan’s fault either, I doubt Titan was aware that Machinehead would have gotten someone like Battle Beast on his payroll considering how close Titan came to dying too.
Just read the comic they go more in depths with mark trust issue
I am shocked Aaron thinks Amber would sleep with a random guy immediately. 😆
Dude with the red cyborg eye reminds me of the one guy in the squad of five random enemies that fought batman and redhood in the animated "under the red hood" movie.
OMG now that u say that I can’t unsee it, the dude that got his head blown of by Red Hood
@@broitsak12 yeah. Thats the good stuff.
1:32 is that drunk Trust-fund kid voiced by Justin Roiland? his voice sounds incredibly familiar, sounds like Rick & Morty.
I love this world so far. Nothing is out of bounds when it comes to fun super tropes. Magic, curses, mummies, cloning, aliens, mad scientists, tropey evil overlords... this has everything just being out there. It is so fun to watch.
The dude literally said he has a girlfriend, so of-course Amber didn't sleep with him.
College boys have never lied and always been 10% faithful right? I am not saying she did sleep with him but I could see it being plausible
The falcon and the winter soldier episode 5 reaction?! I have been refreshing TH-cam for an hour for ur vid!!
think about how fucking lame that is for a second.
@@SHOUTxHIxHEYxHELLO I know right, I am lame.. I am just too excited
They actually established his powers in the first episode with the flashback to his planet!
Super speed
Flight
Super strength
(Just the way he uses those 3 make him basically nuclear)
So no super hearing :)
the Robot cares because of the conversation he had with the beast girl about sacrifice. the idea she is giving away her youth everytime she transforms. he connects and trusts her most than the others in the team.
If Invincible wasn't recovering from his tangle with Battle Beast, those cyborgs wouldn't even have made him bleed. In the comics, they were strong enough to make their punches feel like a strong slaps on Mark, but that's about it.
What I love about this show is how much tension you feel watching it. You really feel the stakes, you really worry about who is gonna die.
Can’t believe they brought Jonathan Groff and Ezra Miller In this for such small roles
Justin Roiland was also a surprise.
I’m getting more and more invested. When it ended I was kinda mad, I was in the world.
I feel like Robot is trying to make a human body with Rex's DNA and I feel like everyone is just assuming he's 100% machine.
Like they don't actually know very much about him.
My theory is that hes like a sick human who lives through his robots.
Pretty much. He's in love with the girl and she's seen that she has an attraction to REX so Robot will put himself into Rex's body. The question is though, when he gets his body, what will he do with Rex?
I've seen the videos explaining robots origins and this comment is pretty much true
That is very accurate, everything is
Cough spoiler alert cough
I think when it comes to Amber’s character and her relationship with Mark, she’s more apprehensive and on guard than investigative. She eluded to having a bad relationship in the past last episode. Plus from her perspective Mark’s just not being a reliable boyfriend lol. So I see it as a bit more realistic that there would be certain things she wouldn’t see that are obvious to others. A lot of relationships are like that in real life, other ppl tend to see things that those in the relationship can’t upon further inspection.
All in all I really like what they’re doing with her character. Already she’s way more fleshed out here than she is in the comics. And yes, indeed I feel like she was always meant to be the Gwen Stacy of Invincible. I mean, in the comics she even has blonde hair lol. Interested to see if they follow some future storylines with Amber. Without giving anything away in the comics, things do get a bit rough.
I swear if Mark doesn’t get a badass fight scene soon... he keeps getting beat up smh
Indeed. I get the Flaxan Leader, which is from another dimension and had time to evolve the tech enough to prepare to face Invincible specifically. I get Battle Beat, the dude is OP in every way. But if Mark wasn't still recovering from that beatdown, he would have taken no bleeding damage from those cyborgs whatsoever, since that's how it went down in the comics. In a fully recovered state, he is actually Invincible against anything from Earth at the moment
@@diegopansini3152 you are reaching tho cause they didn't show any signs that he is still recovering or at least even say that. Plus his dad destroyed the planet not even a week after being hospitalized
@@arturzinurov2146 Well, I sure hope he was recovering. Because those cyborgs should've barely hurt him otherwise. Heck, they don't even make Mark bleed in the comics
@Osiria_ Rouge a bruised face is not really a sign, honestly they could've used a second to show him cringe little from straining himself while fighting them and you wouldn't be hearing from me and many other people about this, but as it stands he looks fine and the only reason he won in this episode is cause the first kiled himself and the boyfriend did the impossible and 'snapped out of it' with parts of his brain missing which you got to admit is kinda underwhelming. As it stand Mark hasn't won any meaningful fight without his dad or other powerful heroes helping him or like in this episode because the other side just quit
@@arturzinurov2146viltrumites grow with age and experience.........nolan is like a thousand times marks peak performance at this his young and untrained stage don't worry he'll grow stronger gradually.
"All human failings are simply engineering challenges crying out to be solved." That's an amazing quote. Just from someone unexpected.
I think the villain in this eps could be important later. Cecil is impressed by his work and the fact it gave Invincible a hard time despite being made in a sewer. While Cecil says he'll lock him up, it's far more likely he'd want him furthering his work as an Omni Man counter measure.
Well I think invincible was still recovering
@@damonestephens8722 you’re right about Mark still recovering because he just got out of the hero hospital today in the episode then later got in a fight with the first cyborg and later with the three cyborgs in the sewer which the two fights hurt him more and he is not at 100%. He was probably at 40-50% during the sewer fight.
Also, it seems the guy is still alive. He may become Invincible's first nemesis. After all, that fucked up jaw would make for a great disfiguration for a potential later villain.
@@jjpark98 technically invincibles first nemesis was the flaxan that got a scar over his eye and kept returning stronger every time. sure mark didnt even consider his existence aside from when they were fighting, but every time that flaxan got back home he came back with an even harder vendetta. only thing is that marks first nemesis was handled by his dad instead of by himself
"Amber's slept with that guy..." No but she's about to do something worse. Like, what in the gaslighting shit has this been?!??
7:30 “Two hot dogs. Where’s Flash?!”
*Ironically in the same episode as Ezra Miller*
Just a heads up with Invincible, the "villain of the week" thing are just seeds for characters or story lines to show up later down the road. So many seeds are planted that just grow for next season or the season beyond. "Impressive technology though, especially for something built in a sewer" 🤔🤔🤔
Hi guys The Guardians of the Globe member known as The Immortal had a few very well known names thueout History: Sir Lancelot, Christopher Columbus and Abraham Lincoln. He's 3,000 years old, just think of him as a good guy Vandal Savage. Just think realy bad insanity after a Decapitation.
Christopher Columbus and good guy do not go in the same sentence. But I get what you mean. Yeah I think when he is down like that his brain rots a little and he goes crazy.
*GASP*
TAKE ME FLYING.
cracks me tf up everytime haha
No offence John and Greg but omg I love Aaron’s reactions so much please bring him more on the channel it would be amazing
Gotta say, as someone called Mark this show can be real surreal to watch.
18:28 “Whats wrong with you, you misjudge people, what are you sexist?” 😂😂😂
I feel like this episode was call "You look kinda dead" because everyone in this kinda dead on the inside. I feel like that fight messed Mark up more than realized emotionally he barely wanted to be invincible in this episode. He tore D.A. Sinclair's face clean off whenever he finds out about his dad its gonna get worse for him. Imagine how Debbie is gonna act around him smh. Mark needs to tell Amber though shes great and i want them to make it.
I just love the voice cast for this show❤️
I feel like when Omni-man talks to Art and hands him the beer after repeating Art's line about "don't piss off your tailor" he probably holds it to where Art can't pull it away until he lets him in a "don't piss off your super hero client" moment
I think I already know OMNI-mans reason tbh like the moment he went through the portal fighting the aliens and said "Earth isn't yours to conquer" before destroying their whole race/planet in one of the earlier episodes.
Not gonna lie, Omniman is intimidating af. I swear I thought he was gonna kill Darkblood,his tailor and Debbie lmao. I was worried. I had to talk to myself like “no, he wouldn’t just kill people he loves.....right?” 😂 after he killed the guardians I just don’t know anymore.
And Rick and that jock being turned into cyborgs was so sad. Like I was genuinely sad for them and William. And Marks only option is to either tell Amber or leave her alone. Because right now it just looks to her like he doesn’t care and he’s hiding something because he keeps leaving her and not telling her anything after telling her he’s gonna be there AFTER she gave him another chance. She deserves better
Omni man gives some Homelander vibes
This episode was awesome. I'm so excited for another episodes.
Did anyone realize DA Sinclair is voiced by Ezra Miller 😂
Yup
Whether they stay together or not I think Amber deserves the truth. I'm not saying spill it to every girl he may date - but Amber has the misfortune of being the first girl he tries to juggle hero and relationship with so his attempts lack balance. She's proven herself to be one of the most grounded and level headed characters in the show - I'm sure she's more trustworthy than William, as loyal as he is.
5:17 I wouldn’t be surprised if she does. Her reality-warping powers look like they could be a problem. She definitely gives me the vibes of someone who could go down a Scarlet Witch/Dark Phoenix path.
She doesn't warp reality. She can just manipulate matter at the subatomic level. Hence the name Atom Eve.
Ur reactions for this show made me get Amazon prime so I can watch it too. Might even start my own reaction channel.
Erza Miller plays the bad guy in this episode
Still love watching this with you dudes
Loving the reception with Amber lately, can't blame you all she's more developed and has more character.
Mark beat Titan and the laser dude (twice). He beat the leader of the Flaxens before the Hulkbuster armor, and if it wasn't for Battle Beast he would have rocked all the henchmen in the last episode.
My guess is that when they inebitblably break up, we're going to find out that she did actually figure out that Mark was Invincible, perhaps even at the college. In reality, she's pissed, not because she actually thinks he's a coward who ditched her, but because he keeps making excuses and refused to tell her the truth. She played along to protect his secret identity, but she won't be prepared to continue a relationship with someone who felt the need to lie to her. I won't ve upset if he just tells her, but this seems like the best way to both respect her intelligence and the story as it's been told so far. It also drives home the whole difficulty of being in relationships with regular civilians like Eve warned Mark going into his relationship with Amber.
This episodes keep getting better!
The soundtrack in this episode is amazing.
I say the villain ties in by making robots to take out Omni-man, ala Sentinels for X-men. Cecil showed a lot of interest in the fact they almost took out Mark...
I JUST caught he's Mark Hamil too 😂😂😂😂😂
I could not focus on the opening scene once I realized the kidnapped frat boy was Justin Roiland 😂
Did everyone forget about Quato in the tank? Robot has to be an Avatar for him to interact with the world.
so it may seem like a villain of the week, but in the comics da sinclair and his cyborg guys are a big villian, thats why they showed he's still alive, same with battle beast, they both come back.
7:28 little did they know, he was there all along lmao
Oh shit they are bringing back the Immortal in the show like in the comics, this’ll be fun
It's not that Mark is necessarily weak, it's more like he's getting into situations that are beyond his abilities. This show subverts the idea of a hero who is ready to take on every challenge. Instead we a character grow both as a person and a hero. There's more to being Invincible than just taking a punch.
Its not subverting anything though. Everyone expects the new hero kid to get his ass kicked. They don't expect him to take as much damage as he does. In the comics it does subvert the idea of the new hero being untrained, unskilled, and needing to spend months trying his powers. Mark in the comics is ready to go from the off. He is a comic nerd and he acts like one. He knows how to fight bad guys based off the comics he reads. He has the moral fortitude of the characters he reads and so know show to be a good guy hero pretty well off.
Hell in the comics Mark does not take any serious damage till like issue 11-13 or so.
I really hope Omni-Man doesn’t kill Debbie(Mrs. Grayson).
I saw the notification from yall and got excited. Then I got disapointed.
People don't know that Nolan and Omni Man are the same person?
White side hair, facial structure, the mustache!!! LIKE WHAT!!
I see Cecil hiring Battle Beast and the villian from this ep. to kill Omni-man
Man, Eve is too good for this world. Mark doesn't deserve her.
What’s wrong with Mark? Also they aren’t together so I don’t know why you say that lol
21:22 pretty much, the story is very reminiscent of coming of age superhero stories, the main one being spider-man but there are other teenage heroes and characters in general who have been through pretty much the same thing. The story is from the early 2000’s so it’s not surprising
what i really can’t figure out tho, is why Nolan killed them. Does he want to conquer earth and took out the strongest foes? or is there another reason?
Damn those cyborgs gave Invicible a beating, but not as bad as how he got it in the last episode. He did pretty well considering he just got out of the hospital not that long ago.
For a moment I was thinking I might be wrong about Amber and then she pulls that BS with Mark. Mark needs to cut his losses and move on. If she can't see what a great guy she's got then she doesn't deserve to have him. Men have to know their worth just as much as women do. Atom Eve knows his worth and probably would've dated Mark if she wasn't with Rex at the time.
I'm happy Atom Eve is using her powers to help people. She's doing the same thing I'd do if I had her power type. I don't get why none of the other top tier teams aren't trying to recruit her. She'd be one of the top people on my list to form a team with.
Telling Amber about him being Invincible is not a good idea after 3 months no matter if you're in high school, college or a working adult. You need to know that someone is going to keep their cool and not reveal your secret once they find out and Amber has not shown she is that person to me. She is always getting on Mark's butt at every little mistake he makes. Mark's friend has proven he can keep his secret and has known him for most likely a long time. I don't think he was friends with Amber at the beginning of the show.
I think Aaron is right about Amber probably sleeping with that guy. It definitely felt like she did something she might have regretted, like she knows she messed up. Most humans do messed up stuff when they are upset with something or someone.
Also I wouldn't have given a second thought to saving my friend that was in trouble or that mess with Amber. I would've decided to find Rick at the very beginning because I would want someone to do that for me if I was in the same situation. Rick would've been safe, never had gotten cyborged and William wouldn't have been captured. You can always find someone to care about in a relationship again that is a better fit for you, but good friends are hard to come by so you do whatever you can to protect them.
Enjoyed the reaction, looking forward to the last two episodes and your reactions to them. 👍👍✌out
The villain in this one was voiced by Ezra Miller
Found your channel and you guys are hilarious!!! I’ve been cracking up each video ! New sub ♥️
"I wanna come" 4:50
This could have been an episode of Buffy (which I love). Looking forward to the next episode.
There are a few smaller flaws with this show but the biggest one is
12:15
The fact that this blood is the oldest on the suit doesnt mean shit.
The only thing that suggests is that Omniman *hit* his target first, not that he actually attacked first, they couldve attacked him with a 100 people 100 times each and if he dodged them all and *then* counter attacked that would still have been the oldest blood on his costume.
Obviously they were right, Omniman did indeed strike first but it was mere coincidence, really sloppy logic.
You two are hilarious!!
Nice reacton! But i'm still waiting for your reaction of episode 5 of falcón and the Winter Soldier!
My mentor in high school used to tell me, "Better the brothers before you butter the Bettys." Mark should have been more compassionate and loyal to William.
Ha, I'm wearing the same Spidey Saves the day Like A Boss T-shirt watching this.
Cecil is the future version of DA.
Or maybe alternate timeline version.
This show does a great job subverting your expectetions
clicked like before you even asked. Love your reactions guys!!
I think the DA is not done yet. As Cecil has told that tech he made in the sewer gave mark a run. Imagine the tech he could make with the help of Cecil's resources. That might be a contingency for Nolan.
And another thing is - Eve has the ability to alter things at a molecular level right? as she can do so with the living cells like we saw in this ep. So essentially, can't she engineer on viltrumite blood cells and find a flow in it or make a venom for it?
I really really hope they get Zazi beats and Steven Yuen to actually play their characters in the love action movie.
"I didn't do anything"
This got a giggle outta me cus he really is a good liar ngl
Is it just me, or could the ending of the first episode have shaken unfamiliar people so much to the point where it's the main reason why I'm seeing so many guesses from reactors of characters having a hidden agenda and/or doing far worse than what seems likely? Something about the fear of Amber immediately sleeping with another dude so fast just has me thinking of that.
i dont think he was contemplating between amber and will, so much as he just felt dissapointed that he couldnt talk but knew he had to help his friend. Not much better, but it's still notable (at least to my pedantic ass lol)
1:26 haha I can't believe they didn't notice that's Justin Roiland even though they've mentioned the slight R&M vibe the show has
You guys really batting .000 at the plate this episode lmao. Great reaction tho
The Robot has feelings for the monster girl cos, he can relate to not having people see him for who he really is on the inside (him having actual feelings but looking like a robot and her being in her mid 20s but looking like a little girl).
"Where's the Flash?" Funny you should say that, Ezra Miller plays DA Sinclair!!
Amber: yOu LeFt uS hEre!!!
Mark: I’m Invincible
Amber: I’ve known for a while.
Me: ....oh so we were just starting shit huh
