I’m dying over the fact it took them 15 min to realize that the intro scene was a diff dimension from the main story and them trying to rationalize it somehow
Robot has a clone body of rex and he takes his name after his death, even if its not robot its a hint towards what’s happening next season in invincible war because rex doesn’t survive the war and robot takes his name right after so i highly doubt its rex especially since he seems pretty smart it seems like robots personally still thats why he wore the armor suit so mark wasn’t completely confused why rex is robot😭
I love the fact that the title screen is literally the dried up blood from season 1 cracking and falling off, only to reveal a different title screen showing how all that blood has forever changed Mark/Invincible...the bright yellow is gone replace with all black lettering.
Season 2 went absolutely nuts. So many viceral and emotional moments. "I thought you were stronger" just hits incredibly hard. I'm really excited for season 3.
36:49 The thing I never realized until watching this video is that those two corpses are the duo that Darkwing (the original Darkwing, who was killed by Omni-Man) had captured and put there before being called to Guardians HQ where he died. He never got to go back and free them like he said he would, so they just died there.
I love how Omni man tried to kill himself and saving others is what stopped him i truly believe he doesnt want to be a Vilrimite underneath it all after the time he spent on earth and because of Mark
In the earlier episodes, Debbie said she taught Nolan how to save others. So to follow your lead, he was saved by the way Debbie taught him, and he found meaning in it. But didn’t realize until the end of the season that no matter who or what he saves, he put the person who embraced him first to suffer. He wanted or needed to see her again
Rex surviving a headshot isn't impossible. In 2007 a Florida man once woke up with a headache and after seeing doctors it turns out his own wife shot him with the gun he bought her. The tip of the bullet was aiming upwards diagonally
A woman was shot by her husband in the head with a low-caliber bullet after which he fled the scene. She thought he'd missed because she blacked out and then came to minutes later upon which she called the police who arrived shortly to her getting some coffee ready. Turns out she had been shot clear in the forehead, the bullet passing through the halves of her brain which dealt minimal damage to her.
yeah first time I watched I even thought "ain't no way he's dead" because I noticed they purposefully put the bullethole on the very upper part of his head. Were they actually gonna kill him I would assume they would make the bullet go directly through his forhead
@@generic_youtube_name9978 It's more to do with the fact that only a Viltrumite can rip a beard off like that which alerted Allen. They call it a toolook pull in the comics.
@@generic_youtube_name9978 It was the fact that he was able to rip his own beard off like that that tipped Allen off. I mean, do that to anyone else and there's going to be a lot of straining, crying, and most likely blood.
For the part about his powers being diminished underwater, Nolan said that Viltrumites can make leverage anywhere, even on/in air. Which is why their punches were so effective in air, not only their strength, but also the leverage allows them to go full force anywhere.
Never seen a reaction from you guys before but I've been binging Invincible finale reactions. Glad UA-cam put you in the mix. I like that you guys stop and discuss throughout
3:00:16 Cecil is Chaotic Good. His goal is to preserve and protect humanity and he doesn't have the luxury to be picky about how he does it. It's why he'll let the psycho kidnapping Frat Boys to make mindless Cyborgs work for him and use his skills on dead, consenting cadavers, Why he'll spend billions on an orbital laser that might hurt Omniman, His job is too important to not use every card available to him in his deck.
Btw that mummy scene we saw the shriveled up dude open that tomb at the beginning of season 1 episode 3 I think when mark was being trained by Omni man but as soon as the mummy rose up mark was flying too close to the sand and he shut the tomb door back up by the wind lol pretty funny lol
They missed that the hanging skeletons in the dark city were left there by dark wing when he replies to Omnimans signal and got murdered. Remember he used magnetic handcuffs on them and was going to come back? They died of thirst and exposure up there.
The only reason I hated Amber in S1 was because she got mad and yelled at Mark when he ran off to get his suit and help them during the cyborg fight. Which would be valid of her imo, but the fact that she somehow knew that Mark was Invincible while this was going on and still got mad is what annoyed me But yeah, the teenager argument is also very valid lol
I'm convinced she didn't know anything until the last minute, and acted mad to cover up the fact that she felt stupid. Mark being Invincible is one of those realizations that makes you feel dumb for not realizing it sooner. Would make more sense than her knowing for weeks and then being pissed because he kept his secret identity...a secret.
I didn’t like her because of her very first phone call with mark. “oh you’re terrified of me.” etc etc and just being obnoxious. obviously it’s the writing but still. that’s insufferable.
@@xAYLAxABSENCExyeah people forget that she was written terribly from the start, and also very weird. They wanted to give her a personality bc in the comic shes just kinda in the background, but ofc they went for that condescending kind of personality💀 the second season shes almost exactly how she was in the comic.
Not sure if anyone has brought this up, but the whole "animating takes soooo long" comes straight from the comics. Obviously when it *was* in the comics, it was about cutting corners when illustrating. So when they adapted that scene, they just altered to to fit animation. Isn't that fun?? ALSO: The Spiderman esc character was actually Spiderman in the comics! Obviously, they changed it for the show cause either they didn't care enough to get the rights/couldn't. But the voice actor for the Amazing Spiderman show appeared in that episode to voice "Spiderman" (and that jogger fun fact)
You guys picked up on Nolan’s books being secret things in the universe that could harm Viltrumites a lot faster than I did, but then again I also picked up on the first episode intro being a different dimension so I guess we’re even
36:50 can’t believe I’ve only just realised but the two people hanging up are the two criminals Darkwing stopped before Omni-Man killed him 😳 Damn that’s a shitty way to go out
Nah it had to be Rudy still, cause Eve's roughly the same age as Rex, yet she was clearly older than the dude in the Robot suit. Maybe Rudy just took Rex's name to honor him cause he didn't make it or somethin'.
@@namishjain9238 nah but I’ve been meaning to! I really just peep things here and there from Tik Toks, but the comics were always tempting to get into 🤔
Spoilers obviously, but first off it is now an alternate timeline so "Rex"/Rudy whatever you want to call him is probably not as dictating and "evil" as he is in new timeline, and thecolbatspider is right lol. He does honor Rex by changing his name. Unfortunately, he puts a shit ton of dirt on his name, and it is pretty disappointing as someone who loves Rex's character, lol. (It was also "already" confirmed that Jason is going to continue voicing him as Rudy grows, which makes sense.)
I was wanting Cecil to respond to mark when he said you weren't there. Like don't let the bad corrupt on who you want to be and see the good that you can spread around the world on what you can do. You're invincible, right. But it's okay this was a really good season.
I think people hated that she blew up at him asking where he was during the campus fight but she revealed that she knew for weeks that he was invincible.
1:17:09 Wait a minute… back in season 1 when the Maulers escape prison, we see that to clone himself, the living Mauler used an actual drill on his arm to penetrate the skin and get a sample of his blood. Does that heal super fast, or do they just ignore that the one has a hole in his arm and is clearly the original?
He might've taken on Rex's identity after his death since he's an adult now and has the literal same genetics. A lot can happen in 20 years so I could be wrong, but I doubt Rex would ever be the tech guy of the Guardians and his temperament in that scene is more like Rudy. Its hard to tell since the difference would be like less than 10 years, but "Rex" looks like a man in his 30's more than 40's.
@@h3nTaiLopezcould go either way with it being the show. Rex is showing a lot of growth and thought, and despite him having Rudy’s dialect, his voice is a lot closer to how Rex sounds.
No one mentioned how Omni had his fists bawled when Mark went to hug him. Omni was ready for Mark to attack him, not hug him. He may of had his hand out in an exchange of peace, but he seemed completely fine with the reaction of Mark getting violent and even anticipated for it to be the act mark did by bawling his fists. The hug was not the first thing Omni thought of it considered. Definitely keeps you questioning Omni's character and train of thinking.
On the subject of movies, I still remember going with my dad to the local theater, buying the tickets to the 3 o'clock showing of one movie and then just walking into the 5 o'clock showing of another. I miss the old "2 for 1" experience
Batman situation for Boom... Bane, Joker, Riddler/Husk, Cat Woman, Two Face/Harvey Dent, Red Hood, Ras Al Ghoul, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, and a couple other villains who aren't primaries know of Bruce Wane being Batman but don't say anything because they know if he's revealed then he no longer is Bruce Wayne he'll be an eternal Batman going all out at all times and villains don't mention it to avoid a pure Batman in Gotham so there is a version of Batman like this BUT the villains fear letting it get out. It's mentioned in one or two occasions in the Batman comics though the main villain credited for finding out without much help is Bane
One of my favourite aspects of Invincible is how it knows which tropes to play straight, and which tropes to subvert or dissect. The superhero genre started as a power fantasy. Superman was a combination of extreme power and perfect morals that allowed for justified violence. And we've seen dozens of "what if Superman was evil" stories that try to deconstruct the morality of violence and power, but none discuss the topic as well as stories like Invincible, which ask "what if Superman was human?" Invincible doesn't offer a power fantasy. Often Mark's strongest moments of morality in the show are the moments when he's getting his ass handed to him but refusing to back down. These scenarios are an inverse of your classic "Superman beating up a villain" moments, and they do a fantastic job of questioning our notions of righteous violence. Mark isn't Invincible, but he IS extremely durable, and you can only hit someone so many times before it starts getting hard to justify.
Though it would be incorrect to characterize Superman as being a perfect paragon of virtue, absent of any flaws. His best stories are when he abides by his moral code & tries to choose the best outcome when confronted by difficult decisions that would be so easy to solve if he simply let go of caring about morality and being a kind, compassionate person. That's why he's a hero: he's the exception to the maxim "absolute power corrupts absolutely." And it's why I don't really like evil Superman stories or characters like that, because they miss the point of the struggle of choosing to be good in the face of situations where it would be very easy to do wrong. "What if Superman killed?" is only interesting insofar as the shock value. "How does Superman choose not to kill?" is much more compelling, imo.
I think the Mark with the yellow cape(no spoilers) is like the most vile because I do not see the other alternate Marks(like the one who was convinced they were doing good) being sadistic like what he did to the kid Did mark cause that sandstorm
They actually did have a batman like that once for a short while. Where people were pretending to be villains to humor bruce. It was a Batman funeral thing or something
I was good with Amber until she went off on Mark for "abandoning them" at the college attack when she claims she knew he was a super hero. That said, I got over it. Lol
We see Angstrom fall through a portal lol. Then there is a clear transition to universe prime lol. I'm surprised y'all missed all the details of it being an alternate universe 😅
I think that was Rex in the suit cause they actually said the name Rex. Whereas Robots name is Rudy short for Rudolph 🤔 not that'll matter cause Mark makes his return and events should play out differently anyways
Omniman is a couple thousand yrs old so if you think about the pet line it's more about life spans than her being a pet pet. It's like us and dogs we live so long to them it might as well be thousands of years
its such a shame that like... the dr strange guy literally causes the one good Mark that doesnt want to kill pushes him to .... bloody his hands and kill ironic.... and sad..
Regarding Amber here's a timeline of events over their breakup weekend, that turned people so hard: Squad goes to college tour. Reanimen attacks, Mark leaves to save people. Amber loses her mind that Mark left, completely justified(if she wasn't lying which she was). Mark stops a super villain. They go home and immediately breakup Amber, "I figured it out weeks ago", as in before this tour she already knew. So Amber is smart enough to figure it out, but dumb enough to not question why Mark hasn't told her. Which this season highlights why Mark's identity being secret is so important. She also lied about their fight the entire weekend because she knew why Mark ran away. Irony she breaks up with him because he lied So in 1 episode and 3 minutes she became the dumbest smart person on the show. In the comics, Amber breaks up because she thinks he's dealing. When she figures it out she confonts Mark and forgives him, like a normal person would. The show did a good job of rehabilitating her in S2 though, kudos to them. Sub points from a reader's standpoint: 1) worth noting her arc is one of the least liked in the comics so all the readers were ready to rush past it. 2) the changes to the character, (smart quirky social-worker/politically-engaged), is a character type that devastated the Arrowverse, Felicity/Iris/Alex/Jennifer, all would do things that were dumb/terrible things and the show would treat them like they were correct. Which is what the show did with Mark pre Omni man fight. And I imagine a high portion of invincible readers tuned into early seasons of the arrowverse. 2b) Kirkman is not 100% when adapting his own story. I like the WD novels, and hated Daryl, a show character, they skipped Tyreese for a long time which ruined his story when they brought him in, Michonne got too much screentime too fast, the anti Tyreese. Tyreese, Carl, Michonne were my favorite characters in the books all of their arcs were devastated from the books.
this is pretty much exactly what i would say if someone asked me to discuss what i thought about amber and yes you were also spot on about the arrowverse 😂 at least in the arrowverse the gf didnt make the hero feel shitty for doing his duty. they were just like, "i cant deal with the secrets" (which is very cliche imo, but better than amber) s2 amber is genuinely a good person and if s1 amber didnt exist i would probably feel bad during the breakup instead of cheering 😭
I always figured that her deal is that she didn't really understand why he kept it secret. Superheroes in this universe seem almost like a game or a show to a lot of people, so the idea of not telling her in order to genuinely protect her doesn't really seem to connect. And it probably seems to her like he's just going behind her back for the hell of it, she doesn't really have much reason to believe otherwise yet. I think she's also clever enough to recognize that William knows, at least in the moment, and she might've jumped to the conclusion that he knew the whole time and that she was the only one not respected enough to be in the loop. And that's probably why watching him get beaten within a bloody inch of his life by Omni-Man is what changed her mind, it was the moment things became "too real".
@@whensomethingcriesagain that's a perspective problem that the show and books have. We are seeing Mark's view and people orbiting Mark, which is filled with superheroes. Think how the deaf have their own communities, if you're in those circles it could seem like a lot. However if you're not, you might know 1 or 2 deaf people. The vast majority of the populace is not powered, similarly there's the joke that everyone makes "Invincible gets beat up more than he wins", but we are mostly skipping his day to day wins. The fights we see are where he is struggling but between the time skips he is mostly blasting through street crime without really a sweat.
@@namishjain9238 ohh you didn't see the kid's season Felicity craps all over Oliver for trying to stay in his kid's and not telling her, while the mom says if word gets out I'm revoking visitation only to have Felicity 180 1-2 episodes later and the show thinks Felicity's right both times that was my breaking point lol

you'll see in season 5 or something that you're absolutely right and he is indeed the most vile
They referred to him as Rex. That’s definitely not robot in that dimension.
I've always thought that the real estate guy looked more like mark than nolan did
They actually did have a batman like that once for a short while.
Where people were pretending to be villains to humor bruce.
It was a Batman funeral thing or something
I love that the Mummy joke from season 1 continued in season 2 😂😂😂
I was good with Amber until she went off on Mark for "abandoning them" at the college attack when she claims she knew he was a super hero.
That said, I got over it. Lol
She was MUCH more likeable this season. Couldn’t stand season 1 amber though
It killed me how long it took y'all to get that it was an alternate reality lol
The comic book artist memeing in the show is the creator !
2:12:30
We have already saw another weakness in the first season.
If somone want to know, you can ask but I don't want to spoiler anything.
2:59:51 You talked over Eve calling him Rex tho. So it really seems to be him.
2:17:52 OMG this sounds a lot like a Ben Ten Classic music
2:59:08 The comics actually show what happened here if youre curious
When they found mark in the future the robot was actually Rex eve even calls him Rex boom was just busy talking about the clone body lol😭
No one in the comments mentioned that dude at 3:03:32 looks like Mumm-Ra the Ever-Living from ThunderCats!
This is how to do a proper multiverse
We see Angstrom fall through a portal lol. Then there is a clear transition to universe prime lol.
I'm surprised y'all missed all the details of it being an alternate universe 😅
Their channel name is Sorta Stupid, it checks out
I don’t think y’all noticed this, but Mark Hamill voiced Art (The costume designer)
We noticed in season 1 😂
2:59:50 nope thats rex lol if you listened
1:07:53 Mark needs to come back right now, and give this man the scare of his life.
"Symbolicism"
When you learn the leader of the Viltromites VA is Lex luthor and Jak 2 Praxos
He’s not the leader
General ≠ Leader
My brother has a 3 chamber heart. It's a heart defect called hypoplastic left heart syndrome
"Don't pull out Mordecai" fuckin got me
Them not knowing it was a different universe annoys me😂😂
Going in knowing this was gonna be a multiverse season made the start way less confusing lmao
If she had known she could have made it up to code
Anissa is like an evil Trinity from the Matrix. That's the vibe I get from her.
Someone please tell that guy the word he’s thinking of is symbolism
The dead ppl in the episode of nightwing are the ppl the last nightwing took before he was killed and that means they starved to death
2:59:52 I know its late now but pay attention!!! Thats not ROBOT!!!
"wallking dead dimension" do they know Mark is voiced by Glenn from the walking dead?
2:35
That what was the most what I ever heard him do
I think that was Rex in the suit cause they actually said the name Rex. Whereas Robots name is Rudy short for Rudolph 🤔 not that'll matter cause Mark makes his return and events should play out differently anyways
It's Rudy if you know the comics
Omniman is a couple thousand yrs old so if you think about the pet line it's more about life spans than her being a pet pet. It's like us and dogs we live so long to them it might as well be thousands of years
its such a shame that like... the dr strange guy literally causes the one good Mark that doesnt want to kill pushes him to .... bloody his hands and kill ironic.... and sad..
"that's good, i hate binge culture"
_looks at channel_
ok
2:45:05 in the comics it was a cheating scandal that cwused them to break up.
2:59:57 She even called him Rex-- that's not Rudy
How about when the scene scrolled past the corpses of the two guys that Darkwing shackled to the water tower, before he got killed.
Channel names fits you three 😂
start: 0:00 end: 3:08:12
Bro that principal can't smile, his lips are too thick.
You guys are going to love Anysa! She is like the most beloved character in the comic books!
2:50:36: Spiderman
season 4 and 5 are both greenlit too so dont worry too much after season 3 because they are trying to make these high quality and fast as possible
lawful neutral 5:48
Someone explain “billy” to me, please.
I think it was the name of there first ever sub on patreon I think
Am I the only one thinks Ruff and SeeOhKnee both look like different variants of KennyBeats?
They literally talked over the part where they explained that was future Rex 🤦
That was not rex. It was Rudy taking his name after he died in that timeline
I feel like you guys should do watch the truman show if you guys have never seen it
anyone else notice the jodie whittaker doctor who reference at 2:25:30 ???
3:07:00 these turn coats in season 1 they were shaming the other guy for thinking Eve was a better partner and now who think the same
2:03:22 LOL
I was crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why didn't marc leave his brother to cecil
Rex got Phineas Gaged
goddamnnnnittttt y’all commented on bullet proof getting the suit mark turned down i shoulda waited to say som on ur reaction to season 1
32:28 predict
Regarding Amber here's a timeline of events over their breakup weekend, that turned people so hard:
Squad goes to college tour.
Reanimen attacks, Mark leaves to save people.
Amber loses her mind that Mark left, completely justified(if she wasn't lying which she was).
Mark stops a super villain.
They go home and immediately breakup
Amber, "I figured it out weeks ago", as in before this tour she already knew.
So Amber is smart enough to figure it out, but dumb enough to not question why Mark hasn't told her. Which this season highlights why Mark's identity being secret is so important.
She also lied about their fight the entire weekend because she knew why Mark ran away. Irony she breaks up with him because he lied
So in 1 episode and 3 minutes she became the dumbest smart person on the show.
In the comics, Amber breaks up because she thinks he's dealing. When she figures it out she confonts Mark and forgives him, like a normal person would.
The show did a good job of rehabilitating her in S2 though, kudos to them.
Sub points from a reader's standpoint:
1) worth noting her arc is one of the least liked in the comics so all the readers were ready to rush past it.
2) the changes to the character, (smart quirky social-worker/politically-engaged), is a character type that devastated the Arrowverse, Felicity/Iris/Alex/Jennifer, all would do things that were dumb/terrible things and the show would treat them like they were correct. Which is what the show did with Mark pre Omni man fight. And I imagine a high portion of invincible readers tuned into early seasons of the arrowverse.
2b) Kirkman is not 100% when adapting his own story. I like the WD novels, and hated Daryl, a show character, they skipped Tyreese for a long time which ruined his story when they brought him in, Michonne got too much screentime too fast, the anti Tyreese. Tyreese, Carl, Michonne were my favorite characters in the books all of their arcs were devastated from the books.
this is pretty much exactly what i would say if someone asked me to discuss what i thought about amber
and yes you were also spot on about the arrowverse 😂
at least in the arrowverse the gf didnt make the hero feel shitty for doing his duty. they were just like, "i cant deal with the secrets" (which is very cliche imo, but better than amber)
s2 amber is genuinely a good person and if s1 amber didnt exist i would probably feel bad during the breakup instead of cheering 😭
I always figured that her deal is that she didn't really understand why he kept it secret. Superheroes in this universe seem almost like a game or a show to a lot of people, so the idea of not telling her in order to genuinely protect her doesn't really seem to connect. And it probably seems to her like he's just going behind her back for the hell of it, she doesn't really have much reason to believe otherwise yet. I think she's also clever enough to recognize that William knows, at least in the moment, and she might've jumped to the conclusion that he knew the whole time and that she was the only one not respected enough to be in the loop. And that's probably why watching him get beaten within a bloody inch of his life by Omni-Man is what changed her mind, it was the moment things became "too real".
@@whensomethingcriesagain that's a perspective problem that the show and books have. We are seeing Mark's view and people orbiting Mark, which is filled with superheroes. Think how the deaf have their own communities, if you're in those circles it could seem like a lot. However if you're not, you might know 1 or 2 deaf people. The vast majority of the populace is not powered, similarly there's the joke that everyone makes "Invincible gets beat up more than he wins", but we are mostly skipping his day to day wins. The fights we see are where he is struggling but between the time skips he is mostly blasting through street crime without really a sweat.
@@namishjain9238 ohh you didn't see the kid's season Felicity craps all over Oliver for trying to stay in his kid's and not telling her, while the mom says if word gets out I'm revoking visitation only to have Felicity 180 1-2 episodes later and the show thinks Felicity's right both times that was my breaking point lol
