If they follow the comics mark is far from being a strong and skilled Viltrumite in this part, what is understandable, as he is too young and not trained in combat. But they already changed that and made Mark way stronger compared to the comics in this fight, so I think they thought a protagonist getting suddenly op, from nothing, is better for the views, more appealing. You could argue it was his emotions and maybe an adrenaline, even so it doesn't justify for now his strength. This make things too easy and boring for him already being able to fight this well against viltrumites way older and experienced in combat. Thula, for exemple was supposed to be way better than this. In the comics at least he goes through hell and takes a lot of time to build his might. It feels kinda rushed for now, but its soon to say, lets see.
I loved nolan crying to mark about the fact he cares about the thraxians. He doesn't understand the feeling of compassion, so he just translates it to anger. Once he realizes he did to earth what the viltrumites are doing to the thraxians, he really got it.
nolan doesn't understand empathy so he identifies it as a fret like everything else, until mark specifies its compassion not an enemy to be angry at. he's truly been brainwashed into the cult mindset
I absolutely LOVED the detail of Nolan at the black hole almost allowing himself to be consumed by the black hole as a form of killing himself, only stopping when he sees the ship. It really shows how ashamed of himself (for leaving earth as well as hurting mark/not hurting mark) and confused he feels. I also was so hyped to see mark getting his ass beat senseless and get the reality check from his dad in the middle of the fight. It really highlighted the stakes and how this isn’t your typical enemy, shit is life and death against a superior opponent. I also am grateful that they included the Art and Debbie arc from the comments. They added some amazing dialogue from what was done in the comics.

I@@howfire from what I got is that Mark has always been strong, hes just like spiderman in the sense that they both pull their punches because of their "no kill" rule
Nolan telling Mark to stop holding back made total sense for me, when Mark was fighting that lady and just WOULD NOT grab that ponytail and get creative with it... left me gasping
@@journeysands2622maybe it’s because of the writers strike, they probably don’t have as much content as they would like so they’re stretching out what they have.
For the bridge scene, Eve was looking for someone to take out her anger and frustration on. She had multiple chances to end that fight but she kept on drawing it out to just keep punching someone. This results in the endangerment of 2 civilian lives making it all worse than just the guilt from the park tragedy. This leaves Eve desperate to know that she didn't kill these people.
She needs training/practice. Up until now she’s been very sloppy with her powers and just self-learning. I hope she starts training with the Guardians and doesn’t just give up.
@damsen978 Also, she’s probably justifiably apprehensive about “fixing” more complex structures after the park sinkhole incident. She would need a better understanding of how the building were constructed, not just their molecular makeup, to ensure they were structurally sound long term.
After Mark’s fight with Thula I realized that Viltrumites are pretty vulnerable to slicing attacks. They can take a major beating but a slice can put them down pretty quickly. I think the reason Nolan always chops immortal in half like he did with this other guy because he’s killed other Viltrumites in the great purge so he knew what to do
Also when Donald cuts himself the blade obviously does cut him but the end of the blade it’s self was bent, possibly Cecil used marks dna when he collected a sample in episode 6
did anyone else think Nolan was maybe trying to kill himself at the black hole. if not he was definitely at a low point where he didn’t care how bad the black hole would hurt him.
Yeah i was a bit disappointed that heavy spoilers didn't address that part cause it looked like Nolan was about to commit suicide until he saved the members of Thraxa.
You had Phil Lamarr as Lucan, Kevin Michael Richardson as the Moller Twins, Mark Hamil as Art, and Clancy Brown as General Kregg. So many voice acting legends in one episode.
There was a blink and you'll miss it moment in this episode where Nolan tells Mark to "Don't think"when prompting him to release some more of his potential during their battle. I thought it was a neat call back to the "think Mark!" moment during their season 1 battle
when she was isolated from the members of the superhero spouse support group i literally sobbed because i felt so bad for her, poor woman never gets a break
@@Deadricblood In the seen with Debbie leaving it shows Nolan's books in a box she left on the curb and space racer's is on the top. Not a detailed image of him unfortunately.
Did anyone else notice that while looking at the black hole Omni Man was about to just let himself be taken by it until he saw the ship aka his idea of repenting? Just like Debbie, he also contemplated giving up
God this episode broke me man. The start conversation with his father was so real and so much more fleshed out. The way he was more angry and frustrated hit so close to home and I loved it
Am I the only one that noticed Nolan was seemingly about to commit suicide? When he was next to the black hole he was about to just let himself get sucked in, but stopped when he saw the Thraxxan ship. Obviously supposed to mirror Debbie's near suicide later in the episode.
Oh yeah a lot of people noticed it too. He was clearly about to let himself get sucked in when he saw the ship coming. Definitely drives home the point of depressed he was following the fight.
Great ep even with stuff animation at time, the title card is breaking into black writing, blue background so I think that’s a very clear tease that the blue and black suit ( invincibles black Spider-Man suit if you will ) is coming
By the time Nolan told his son about the dire situation fighting against the Viltrumites who are coming for them, Mark has finally tapped his innate power to thrust with unspeakable raging strength across his genes. It is only a matter of time until his bloodlust will manifest at an uncontrollable rate if it goes unchecked.
The change of Nolan going towards the black hole to just kill himself and happening to save the thraxians, and become there people is SO MUCH better then the way they did it in the comics, because it makes Nolan an actual sympathetic character. that was something i always had an issue with, Nolan just left Earth to conquer another planet as a trade off for Earth, it was fucked up. But we were supposed to sympathise with him, and i couldn't, but the show really did well to show how fucked up he was and how much of this isn't him but the training in him.
Mark stepping to his father all serious for a slight second was enough to show his growth from the last season, crazy how much you can invest in animated characters😅
People always replay that clip of nolan calling Debbie a pet. I feel like not enough people realize that nolan is lying to himself. In that moment he's saying what he thinks he should be saying because of who he is. But that's not what he actually believes he does. Love Debbie and mark and wishes. Things could have been different and he wishes. He made a different decision, but considering the decision he made his life on Earth is over. Nolan is a very complex character. But I feel like people understate ironically, enough a lot of the deeper meanings with him.
Yeah. This type of stuff sometimes makes me understand why so many entertainment productions just make sure to make every single aspect of the story as clear and plain as it can be, because too much people just seem to miss stuff when things are nuanced and left up for the audience to get the clues and put things together... I doesn't make me like it and I think it makes for a worse product overall, but I understand the motive.
The other part is that Nolan didn't really want to conquer earth during this time. He wanted to live out Debbie and maybe Mark's life as a hero and only after they died would he go and conquer the earth cause those people meant everything to him.
Spoilers "Because we don't change our minds, unlike your father." - General Kregg (A few years later) General Kregg on earth after marrying 33 women and having kids with them, to Thragg : "But I love them all."
@@VelaiciaCreator I think that's why they made it so that Thula was in the fight instead of random unnamed Viltrumite like in the comics; so that when the conversion happens, it comes as a bigger shock.
Not really though, to Zod Krypton and kryptonians matter first, even if you were weak, he wouldn't kill you rather he would find something else for you to do. He cared about his people weak or strong, if you were kryptonian you were safe under Zods rule
@@kntgafActually season 3 is the reason they had to split up season 2 due to the strikes halting production. Season 2’s been done for almost a year, but they didnt wanna keep makin it so ppl would have to wait 2 1/2 years between seasons. The good news is that people are back to work again and if all goes well, we should be getting season 3 around early to mid 2025
Second best episode of the show after the first seasons finale. I think I speak for everyone when I say this show is at its best when the plot focuses on Mark and Nolan both. We don’t care about the big brain guy. Don’t care about the maulers. Give us more viltrum, more aliens, more space.
I also just realised nolan didn't go into mark being able to train and exercise to improve his ability like in the comics. Hope mark still goes through the training arc like he did when his father motivated him in the comics
@VelaiciaCreator true but mark never thought to even after the multiple beatings from s1and when his father told him bout it he said he never thought to train. Anyways probably right, only way he progresses from here on out anyways can't wait
The ending gave me huge dragon ball z vibes . General Kregg telling mark that he has to kill humans or they’ll just take the planet . Is kinda like when Raditz told Goku kill people or he’s killing gohan 😂 Idk if it was intended but just sun I noticed.
I noticed a similar irony as in the comics I noticed in the comics he said mark had a hundred years while raditz said kill a 100 humans in order to get gohan.
Actually Viltrumites are exactly like the saiyans. The difference is they were more organized, reached their full potential and became an empire, while the saiyans although they have the god power potential, were mercenaries for other strong races like the friezas.
Those who haven't read comics, you have absolutely no idea how good it is going to get. (Spoilers) My one of the favourite parts from the comics is the Viltrumite prison phase, of (now heavily buffed after his beat down by the Viltrumites) Allen finding Nolan and Battle Beast there, Allen befriending Nolan and becoming bffs, Allen wrecking the prison facility built to contain several Viltrumites like a house of cardboards, like basically it took just one punch, Nolan and Allen watching Battle Beast go psycho on a Viltrumite and Nolan saying to Allen, "Is this guy real?" (Imagine a top-tier Viltrumite saying that, Battle Beast had went feral.) And then him recruiting Battle Beast and Nolan and taking them to the Coalition. I mean the whole story upto where Nolan fights Mark and leaves Earth seems mundane to what happens in the rest of the story, but if that part getting animated in season 1 was received this good, I can only imagine how much commotion this show will make with the future seasons.
read the comics a bit ago. when do you think all this will happen? if this keeps pace (spoiler) the viltrumite war will start either the end of next season or season 4 no?
It's mostly staging the clips and source material in the editing program, watching the episode while recording and taking notes, to then incorporate it into the video and do a voice over. Then you just render and shove it down the pipe
Since season 2 got announced I started reading the comics and I have an idea of what happens but the show is doing its own thing and it still feels fresh cannot wait for Angstrom to come back just read that encounter I the comics and I'm excited
@@ItsVegaSama Depends, you can find it for free in libraries, for purchase in book stores, in pdf/cbz/cbr form all over the internet. Super easy to search up.
Debbie’s story reminds me of some of the wives who married a serial killer and didn’t know until they got caught. Can’t imagine how much that would f with you.
A weird thing is Nolan will be redeemed /humbled by his time on thoraxia and further adventures in space. though the shows evolution from the book will likely take realistic ambivalent relationship rather then them reuiniting.
I love how viltrumites have multiple races and dont worry bout petty things like color. Dc barely shows any blk or other race kryptonians. And even when blks draw power form the sun in reality... my boy lucan did a famous leg drop on nolan even batman felt that🤣🔥
5:12 this is why you're my favorite review channel. I can't tell you how many times, with everything from anime to movies, I've had a reviewer just outright spoil things for non-comic/manga readers.
Going through a divorce I did not consent to be rather just had to accept, I understand completely where Debbie is coming from. The entire relationship and marriage was all real to you, left to live with betrayal and loss of true love.
other countries must have some hard rules because I laughed so hard that the "cover up" of invincible swearing went straight back to him actually swearing.
6:06 During the scene with the black hole too Nolan seemed like he was ready to let himself be sucked in, essentially killing himself much like Debbie contemplates here
TW: I feel like during the black hole sequence Nolan was contemplating $ui$ide and found a reason to live by looking at the ship. Because he didn’t know if he would live through that black hole or where it would take him and it seemed like he was letting himself get pulled in by it’s gravity.
Hope you had a good holiday brother! This show is so good and I actually love that it takes so much from the comics. Spoilers I’m okay with because it’s the journey not the end.
I mean, in a world where we have so many animated or alive action comic book interpretations. It's nice for once to actually get a direct adaptation with improvements on the source material. And not things that are kind of like the comic I guess sort of maybe if you squint.
I loved the matching shot from season one of bloody Mark laying down completely finished with Nolan standing over him yet this time he's asking if he's okay
The show completely changed how I look at the comic panel of Nolan kissing the bug...it wasn't that bad just looking at the comic .but now that they added the motion of their tongues and the slobbering sound made it so much more nasty..its funny how much a little sound or motion added to a picture can change how you look at it
12:42 A nit pick of mine is when this happens in a lot of shows/flicks... How can someone do that? To put a finger or a hand and crush another into the ground? Do they weight that much? I don't think so. If much force is used, they would just pick up themselves... not push the other down... Gravity you know?
What I find interesting about season 2 of invincible is that they're combining different elements from the comics together as one original page while staying true to the source material. That said I am kind of curious to see on how they're going to have it where Mark travels through the Multiverse and ends up encountering his evil doubles, but also other characters from Image Comics. 🤔 Like the Savage dragon, Spawn, and the WildC.A.T.S. even those from the Marvel Universe and which voice actors and actresses are they going to have for those crossover events if they do decide to do it.
Thia feels like the first episode that actually progresses the story, the first 3 were literally just repeating the same side stories with the twins, eve and the guardians that they did in season 1 except this time they have 0 correlation to the main story so it just feels like filler. The main storyline with mark and debbie was pretty good thi, i love Debbie's storyline What a shame we've waited this long for basically 1 decent episode and 3 borderline filler episodes
How many episodes end with Mark basically on the verge of death or what would be considered verge of death for anyone else. Really putting that invincible title to the test. Lol
if you noticed you have discovered Donald was a robot because of how he moved the cursor, normaly a human moves the cursor in a habhazard way while he moved it in a straight manner
you gotta love the detail of the surveillance cameras, they're actually from the angle of the surveillance cameras usually they would have copied and pasted the camera angles from season 1 and called it a day
probably the first time i actually made noise at the sight of the fights, some great stuff. sucks that we have to wait till 2024 for the rest of the season.
Let us know your thoughts on the finale below
When is the full interview coming out on the second channel? No rush was just curious!
You said "debbisating" instead of "devastating" idk if that was on purpose
If they follow the comics mark is far from being a strong and skilled Viltrumite in this part, what is understandable, as he is too young and not trained in combat. But they already changed that and made Mark way stronger compared to the comics in this fight, so I think they thought a protagonist getting suddenly op, from nothing, is better for the views, more appealing. You could argue it was his emotions and maybe an adrenaline, even so it doesn't justify for now his strength. This make things too easy and boring for him already being able to fight this well against viltrumites way older and experienced in combat. Thula, for exemple was supposed to be way better than this. In the comics at least he goes through hell and takes a lot of time to build his might. It feels kinda rushed for now, but its soon to say, lets see.
Oliver needs to have better treatment than he was given in the comics.
@@howfire bruh you're everywhere shut up already
I loved nolan crying to mark about the fact he cares about the thraxians. He doesn't understand the feeling of compassion, so he just translates it to anger. Once he realizes he did to earth what the viltrumites are doing to the thraxians, he really got it.
That kick to the back positioning if you rewind the cartoon,came of like an elevated version of m bison kick.
Congratulations Nolan you've experienced basic fucking empathy
@@Quakeemann121 Wish we can say the same thing about the FANS. They're ingrates
It was kinda sad 😢 like my man can’t comprehend his feelings

@@VelaiciaCreator oh ye for sure same
@@ShoeCuzzy2003 I am impatient to see Terra and Marky grow up, I want that montage to be longer, damnit.
The ending gave me huge dragon ball z vibes . General Kregg telling mark that he has to kill humans or they’ll just take the planet . Is kinda like when Raditz told Goku kill people or he’s killing gohan 😂 Idk if it was intended but just sun I noticed.
I noticed a similar irony as in the comics I noticed in the comics he said mark had a hundred years while raditz said kill a 100 humans in order to get gohan.
@@samuraiforever9120 Lol 😂 that is so true .
Agreed!!!
Actually Viltrumites are exactly like the saiyans. The difference is they were more organized, reached their full potential and became an empire, while the saiyans although they have the god power potential, were mercenaries for other strong races like the friezas.
Such a great episode! Awesome breakdown! I can't wait till the rest of the season
This episode was pretty dope especially the fighting at the end.
“Mark read my book” 😂this whole episode was Nolan trying to increase those book sales
Yeah lol
Those who haven't read comics, you have absolutely no idea how good it is going to get.
(Spoilers)
My one of the favourite parts from the comics is the Viltrumite prison phase, of (now heavily buffed after his beat down by the Viltrumites) Allen finding Nolan and Battle Beast there, Allen befriending Nolan and becoming bffs, Allen wrecking the prison facility built to contain several Viltrumites like a house of cardboards, like basically it took just one punch, Nolan and Allen watching Battle Beast go psycho on a Viltrumite and Nolan saying to Allen, "Is this guy real?" (Imagine a top-tier Viltrumite saying that, Battle Beast had went feral.) And then him recruiting Battle Beast and Nolan and taking them to the Coalition.
I mean the whole story upto where Nolan fights Mark and leaves Earth seems mundane to what happens in the rest of the story, but if that part getting animated in season 1 was received this good, I can only imagine how much commotion this show will make with the future seasons.
read the comics a bit ago. when do you think all this will happen? if this keeps pace (spoiler)
the viltrumite war will start either the end of next season or season 4 no?
Bro this is what I've been saying; honestly the Conquest fight is going DESTROY the Internet
Anyone else think Donald looks like an older Bobby Hill?
Now I do 😂
He looks more like the guy who chills with bobby dad with the glasses
@@ShockToYoSystemDale haha
Just finished and needed more, glad you get these out so quick (like how)
It's mostly staging the clips and source material in the editing program, watching the episode while recording and taking notes, to then incorporate it into the video and do a voice over. Then you just render and shove it down the pipe
Since season 2 got announced I started reading the comics and I have an idea of what happens but the show is doing its own thing and it still feels fresh cannot wait for Angstrom to come back just read that encounter I the comics and I'm excited
Where can I read the comics?
@@ItsVegaSama Depends, you can find it for free in libraries, for purchase in book stores, in pdf/cbz/cbr form all over the internet. Super easy to search up.
@@ItsVegaSamasearch up read online invincible free
@@ItsVegaSamaYou can just look up invincible free in Google and find a couple different websites that has the entire thing for free.
@@ItsVegaSamayou can find them online for free
Thank you for linking us to that song! Such a beautiful piece. Been searching since I saw the episode. Fantastic breakdown as usual. Love from Nigeria
Why do I get the feeling we're gonna see ramifications from Debbie telling that dickhead that she was Omni-Man's wife? Dude gave off spiteful vibes.
"What is better, to be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort ?" -Paarthurnax
Depends on how much bad u do during ur time being evil
Nolan: "think mark think"
Also Nolan: "don't think mark, dont think"
Character development at its finest🥺
From a movie: "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?!"
"YOU TOLD ME NOT TO!!!"
Debbie’s story reminds me of some of the wives who married a serial killer and didn’t know until they got caught. Can’t imagine how much that would f with you.
Omni man got his back blown out. 💀
Back shot from hell 😂
A weird thing is Nolan will be redeemed /humbled by his time on thoraxia and further adventures in space. though the shows evolution from the book will likely take realistic ambivalent relationship rather then them reuiniting.
Old costume guy going to shoot his shot with Debbie. I wonder how many super wives on the rebound / in mourning he's tried it on with.
honestly i thought that when i first read that
I love how viltrumites have multiple races and dont worry bout petty things like color. Dc barely shows any blk or other race kryptonians. And even when blks draw power form the sun in reality... my boy lucan did a famous leg drop on nolan even batman felt that🤣🔥
Also general kregg seems like hes german like me🔥
And thragg is Russian
5:12 this is why you're my favorite review channel. I can't tell you how many times, with everything from anime to movies, I've had a reviewer just outright spoil things for non-comic/manga readers.
I hope part 2 opens up with Allen juiced up.
Keep up the good work!
7:50 Donald looks straight up like Bobby from King of the Hill
Going through a divorce I did not consent to be rather just had to accept, I understand completely where Debbie is coming from. The entire relationship and marriage was all real to you, left to live with betrayal and loss of true love.
I love what they’re alluding to with the title card. BRING THE BLUE!
Great breakdown
other countries must have some hard rules because I laughed so hard that the "cover up" of invincible swearing went straight back to him actually swearing.
In the comics lucan looks like terry crews but in the show he looks like carl winslow 🤣🤣
Lol foreal he does look like a evil Carl
@@Nightman12 yea steve urkel better think twice before trying to break into his house
and steve harvey
Yeah i was getting steve harvey vibes
@@arseneholmes6266 he left hosting family feud to deal with noland 🤣🤣
6:06 During the scene with the black hole too Nolan seemed like he was ready to let himself be sucked in, essentially killing himself much like Debbie contemplates here
I got goosebumps when Nolan gave mark a quick pep talk to stop holding back. So cool
Thank you for these breakdowns, this show should be more popular than it is. Excellent writing, some of the best action scenes...
TW: I feel like during the black hole sequence Nolan was contemplating $ui$ide and found a reason to live by looking at the ship. Because he didn’t know if he would live through that black hole or where it would take him and it seemed like he was letting himself get pulled in by it’s gravity.
THANKS for this level of "Invincible" coverage, Paul!!!!
I got "vegeta, remember the bug planet?" vibes from this episode 😂😂
Nolan went to “Think!” to “Don’t Think!”
Hope you had a good holiday brother! This show is so good and I actually love that it takes so much from the comics. Spoilers I’m okay with because it’s the journey not the end.
I mean, in a world where we have so many animated or alive action comic book interpretations. It's nice for once to actually get a direct adaptation with improvements on the source material. And not things that are kind of like the comic I guess sort of maybe if you squint.
I wish the episodes was longer
I loved the matching shot from season one of bloody Mark laying down completely finished with Nolan standing over him yet this time he's asking if he's okay
15:54 👀 gawd damnnn
Love this show!!!
The show completely changed how I look at the comic panel of Nolan kissing the bug...it wasn't that bad just looking at the comic .but now that they added the motion of their tongues and the slobbering sound made it so much more nasty..its funny how much a little sound or motion added to a picture can change how you look at it
15:40 she was shown 1 episode ago with Allen...
I’m 99% sure that Lucan was in the flashback scenes of Viltrum’s ‘selection’ process, where they’re all fighting with one another.
Thanks for the breakdown, Paul! Definitely a great episode, really rough on Mark, jeez.
This second season is just marvelous! The gut punches i had this episode were amazing
7:00
Really gonna just speed past that Debbie pun, huh?
12:42 A nit pick of mine is when this happens in a lot of shows/flicks... How can someone do that? To put a finger or a hand and crush another into the ground? Do they weight that much? I don't think so. If much force is used, they would just pick up themselves... not push the other down... Gravity you know?
We will always support this channel. Theyre one of the best.
Swear words being cut off by title card/credits has gotta be one of my favorite tropes
What I find interesting about season 2 of invincible is that they're combining different elements from the comics together as one original page while staying true to the source material.
That said I am kind of curious to see on how they're going to have it where Mark travels through the Multiverse and ends up encountering his evil doubles, but also other characters from Image Comics. 🤔 Like the Savage dragon, Spawn, and the WildC.A.T.S. even those from the Marvel Universe and which voice actors and actresses are they going to have for those crossover events if they do decide to do it.
Where do you guys read the comics from? I really need to read the invincible one right away I can't wait till January 😭😂
This episode was fantastic
Thia feels like the first episode that actually progresses the story, the first 3 were literally just repeating the same side stories with the twins, eve and the guardians that they did in season 1 except this time they have 0 correlation to the main story so it just feels like filler.
The main storyline with mark and debbie was pretty good thi, i love Debbie's storyline What a shame we've waited this long for basically 1 decent episode and 3 borderline filler episodes
Omg this was Amazing
Whoa whoa whoa
You’re telling me that I have to wait until 2024 for the rest of the season?!?!
Nolan looking at the Blackhole from Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar 😂😂😂META
How many episodes end with Mark basically on the verge of death or what would be considered verge of death for anyone else. Really putting that invincible title to the test. Lol
7:01 did you just say “debbiestating” 😭😂
if you noticed you have discovered Donald was a robot because of how he moved the cursor, normaly a human moves the cursor in a habhazard way while he moved it in a straight manner
Best damn breakdowns on the net. Hot damn.
you gotta love the detail of the surveillance cameras, they're actually from the angle of the surveillance cameras usually they would have copied and pasted the camera angles from season 1 and called it a day
man the maulers are so petty...shit was hilarious to me.
I am very invested in this series. Read the comic. Can't wait for One Punch Man season 3.
"Don't think Mark! Don't think!" ~ Omniman
He's compassion is annoying,
The viltrimite wants to kill him and he wants to reason
Such a p*ssy
probably the first time i actually made noise at the sight of the fights, some great stuff. sucks that we have to wait till 2024 for the rest of the season.
Cheers Paul 👍
I’ve always read the character Conquest as Clancy Brown. I’m shocked he playing Kregg. Has me wondering, who will Conquest be played by?
7:02 "debbi-stating" .. devastating... hahaha.
This episode was fantastic!! This first half ofthe season was amazing, so many call backs to the comics
Mark defeated Thula…
The same guys that was learning to fly 2 years ago…
