The fight of their lives (Clark is not making it out of that room).

Just a lil something to tide myself over till next season, aka the beginning of many of these and many cramped fingers.

I don't have the means to make proper digital art atm, so I always have to trace it with my finger on my phone. Either I'm tracing my own art or a screenshot from whtv show or movie. And it nearly always looks iffy. Although I got some good ones in a ToTK post coming up.

But ugh. My fucking finger hurts.

On a scale from Rose Quartz to Omni-Man, how well did you prepare your half- human son for the impending invasion of your alien species to conquer earth and subjugate mankind?

5 Characters who should get an Invincible Special Episode

Invincible Season 2 has just wrapped up, and while some fans are a little disappointed with its ending, overall the general consensus has been positive. From excellent music, to phenomenal voice work and animation, along with X-Men '97 its been a great time to be a superhero fan AND an animation fan.

This season also brought in a handful of new characters, as well brought some fan favorites to the forefront, including Allen the Alien, Rex Splode and Immortal.

I think I speak for everyone when I say I love being in this universe, and would love to see more. And while I know Season 3 will be here sooner than Season 2 was, I've been thinking about all those incredible characters and the Atom Eve Special.

It went a long way in showing how good the animation got, expanding on Atom Eve, and evening building up threats like The Lizard League.

I think theres alot of potential in expanding some of these characters, seeing their origins and helping build up their character development.

So I'm going to go through some, along with ideas as to how the episodes can play out. Spoiler Warning for Invincible Season 1 & 2 and mild spoilers from the comics.

5. Bulletproof

Starting off with one of the newest members of the Guardians of the Globe, Zandale Randolph AKA Bulletproof is definitely a character you forgot was in this season.

While he is known for a few big things in the future, he didn't really get to do much this season. He wasn't very useful in the sequid invasion, didn't really help in any major fights, nor do we know anything about him. So why him?

His history in the comics is rather tragic, and I think is something we are going to explore. His twin brother, a mad genius, attempts experimenting on Zandale in order to give himself superpowers. Instead it gives Zandale superpowers, and kills his brother.

Due to this, and unable to tell his parents, he pretends to be both brothers to preserve his brothers legacy.

That tragedy is alot, and could make for an amazing episode, with his brother being the villain and explain why he is so guarded.

Plus, I love Jay Pharoah. More Jay Pharoah please.

4. Dupli-Kate

We got some hints at Dupli-Kates origin in her eulogy from Immortal. Her powers come from a curse upon her family, that led to both her and her brother gaining the ability to multiply.

What you don't know is they started off as a brother sister team before going their separate ways.

We actually see Kate's brother Multi-Paul in the cell when the Maulers escape again. Seeing a young version of Multi-Paul before their inevitable confrontation in a later season could give us more stakes.

Yes, this is another sibling rivalry just like Bulletproof, but this could start way more fun than Bulletproofs.

And two multipliers who are children fighting it out in a dramatic finish? Also good television.

3. Monster Girl

Talk about a tragedy.

Monster Girl's curse was given to her after falling in love with a man whose grandmother disapproved of her. That grandmother was a witch, who turned her into an ogre with extraordinary power.

We don't get much else from her origin, which could give us some wiggle room.

This could start as a love story turned horror story, unable to get out of her monster form, feeling trapped in her own body. We can have the witch be an Agatha Harkness type, and a physical threat in the episode too.

Once she is defeated, Amanda is able to turn back and be with the man she loves, until she realizes months later, that she is getting younger, and he breaks her heart.

The beats are all there, and I'd love to see a magic based episode in the Invincible Universe mixed in with some Hulk style action. Plus, building up Amanda will be important as she is vital in the comics.

2. Thaedus The Great Betrayer

You didn't think I was only picking Guardians did you?

Thaedus' episode could be by far the most interesting, showing us Viltrum from a first hand perspective, before he betrayed and before he formed the Coalition.

I don't want to get too heavy into spoilers, but he causes a brutal blow on the Viltrum Empire I'd love to see first hand. We can keep Peter Cullen, or get a younger voice actor, but either way, seeing a younger Viltrum Empire would be very intriguing and a bloodbath.

1. Rex Splode

Despite being one of the most annoying characters in Season 1, Rex is by far the standout of Season 2 in my eyes.

Another origin that was slightly teased, I can imagine Rex's episode can be his sad origin, meeting Atom Eve in act 2, and taking out his oppressors by the end in a good old fashioned team up.

This could be a direct sequel to the Atom Eve Special, giving us more Eve, and help us understand their relationship even better. Plus Rex being blind sided with a girl who can make anything? Sounds like a fun battle to me.

Thank you so much for reading! Please consider following, and check out my socials and other sites here! And let me know: Who do you want to see get an Invincible Special Origin Episode?

Been getting a bit back into Invincible stuff lately, especially what with Season 2 coming, and I remembered Nikki - the homeless girl whom Martian Man was friends with (and possibly living with?). And I still feel really bad about her honestly.

She's a pretty minor question but her role is both very tragic and also kinda raises several questions.

For one thing; why didn't Martian Man seemingly do anything for her? At least get her to social services or try to arrange some proper housing for her other than a condemned building. Is it due to lack of understanding of earth/humans due to being Martian? Or did he try but wasn't able to do anything?

There is probably an argument to be made that pulling strings for Nikki's sake would be too attention-drawing. People might notice this random homeless girl has some important connections and so keep an eye on her and might connect her to Martian Man.

She at least seemed to be still alive and getting food from the soup kitchen last she appeared. But still... given several other Guardians were shown with loved ones in the montage, it does give the implication that they were quite close, possibly even some kind of parental figure.

Given she's still homeless after his death and is never mentioned by others and also didn't appear to attend the funeral, it does give the impression as well that others are unaware of all. Although even if Martian Man did mention he was friends with a homeless kid; that's probably a fairly vague statement to go on and it'd probably be difficult tracking her down specifically.

But this means that while the families of the other guardians at least got to attend the funeral as a potential form of closure, and also could even possibly use one another for emotion support or appeal to the GDA for assistance... Nikki got none of those options or possibilities.

She's lost someone close to her and she doesn't appear to even have anyone to confide in or watch out for her; few would believe her if she tried discussing her feelings about Martian Man's death and even if they did it would only bring dangerous attention onto her.

Just a shitty situation all round for her and I kind of hope Season 2 shows she's continuing to at least do okay. Haven't read the comic (although I might) but from what I've seen it doesn't appear she was a comic character so I guess her fate's up to the show writers (assuming they choose to show her again anyway).

“You don’t have to be the greatest Omni-Man ever. You just have to be the greatest you.”

INVINCIBLE created by Robert Kirkman Season 1 (2021)

[botslayer]

I’m just saying: Amber’s blow up has some justification... It still shows a significant lapse in the writing quality of the show. 

Now, rather than just point out “Mark was nearly beaten to death and was trying to help the broader community that night, which would also include the homeless.” (Things Amber is not privy to as was pointed out by someone else) I’d like to say that she has known for “Weeks” that Mark is a superhero. Not which one he was, but that he was a superhero. Fair enough. She didn’t connect that the guy she thought was a superhero was the one that showed up to the college right when the reaniman attacked and Mark vanished? She blows up at Mark for abandoning her and William. If she thinks he’s a superhero and he doesn’t fight back, that is actually a plausible response but the guy with Mark’s build, hair, and voice dealing with the reaniman right when Mark disappears wasn’t tipping off a smart girl that THAT superhero was Mark? I’m not being facetious either. Amber is clearly an intelligent, compassionate and otherwise good girl with maybe a little bit of a temper and some passive aggression. Relatively well-fleshed out character. But again, her blowing up at Mark for leaving them is completely unfounded. And even if she doesn’t piece together that that guy was Mark, when he’s in her room, in the suit he was using at the time, with his mask on and everything, the whole deal is still dumb as shit. Again, she may not have certain details but Mark makes no defense or case for himself and Amber seems to just forget that the GUARDIANS OF THE FUCKING GLOBE, you know, the world’s premiere super team, The one that was murdered all at once? God forbid Mark or ANY superhero be a little gun-shy with their identities after that. Again, the idea of that going over Amber’s head, a smart, empathetic sort, is just fucking stupid. Yeah, Mark’s not a perfect saint but the situation is completely fucked for him and everyone. He is literally in a no-win situation and that’s just how it is. The fact that Eve doesn't understand the importance of his secret identity when she also has one is insane as well when, again, the Guardians were all murdered. That is the kind of shit that is going to ROCK most superheroes to the core for a good while, I’m just saying. Especially when I’m pretty sure she would also know about Nolan, Mark’s FATHER being nearly beaten to death, too. As far as anyone can tell, that was just the same assailant but they failed to kill Nolan. William at least has the excuse that he doesn’t understand or have all that great an insight into superheroics.
