Cecil is such a strange character. And he's my favorite iteration of the "Hardass government man" archetype many superhero universes have. Its not just about the mission, its not just about keeping people or the world safe. He wants the people working for him to be in the best headspace they can be to face the horrors their world can cause. Sometimes that means being a hard headed jerk, and sometimes that means respecting boundaries and giving space. He sees the world only for what it is because his job is making sure it stays how it is. Changing the world for the better is the responsibility of someone else, the people inspired by the heroes who work for and with him
@comedygold8055 I wouldn't call him lovable but I would call him a good person at his core. He wouldn't want to be called lovable. It has too much baggage attached
Being able to push fear aside is just a prequisite to be in his position, but to keep planet spinning in Invincible universe, takes more than that and that is what makes him what he is, even if someone else would be able to do better, but thats for another persons story.
You know, when I first started this show I thought Cecil was just gonna be a knock-off of Nick Fury. But his characterization sets him apart by far. A perfect vessel for the tone of this show. A morally grey mortal man doing his best to protect the world against titans leagues stronger than him by keeping things gray.
A solid leader through and through. Throws whatever he can to deter a threat, always keeps the big picture in mind, but knows that position comes with the hard truth that you need to keep secrets and play dirty. Yet he never lost sight of the honor that comes with putting your life on the line to serve your country. Thats why he rebuilt Rick, constantly rebuilt Donald, and put his life in the hands of his own men (operating the teleporter) to directly confront Nolan.
Correction, hes just protecting the USA, every other Nation will burn to ashes while the us will be protected by a super effective shield, perfectly aligning with its political borders.
I love Cecil. Dude has a whole squads of superheroes, zombie cyborgs, and multibillion dollar superweapons at his beck and call, but when push comes to shove he is not afraid to teleport right into action and shoot a blaster at a godlike alien. This proves that unlike many other grey characters in similar position, he doesn't pick the grey path because its easier than white one - he simply does what NEEDS to be done.
Misleading title. Cecil is terrified of Omniman. Cecil is terrified of pretty much every threat to the Earth. He doesn't cower in the face of fear though. He is a man. He buries his fear and does that needs to be done, even if it is unkind, even if it's dirty, even if it borders on evil. But that doesn't stop him from being afraid. It makes him one of the bravest people alive.
@Raximus3000 That too, but more just her belief that all these uncontrollable God amongst Men would doom humanity and needed some kind of government control to ensure human society wouldn't be destroyed by them.
To be fair dc is kind of story where heroes never grow past superheroing as thats not the point of narrative and therefore waller is always the villain on side of heroes, to screw up and have hero save the day enforcing moral standard of the story. Invincible was written to be exactly not that and therefore waller wouldent work long term for where the story intends to go, tho in the end id say its his sucessor who gets it 100% right and cecil right enogh.
Well, there's gonna be Invincible panel with Robert Kirkman, Gillian Jacobs and Sandra Oh on December 7th during CCXP Brazil and we should get the teaser/trailer there (I'll be very, very surprised, if we won't).

1:50 "Knock him on his tushy." Some poor intern got vague instructions on what swearing is allowed promoting a show with heavy swearing and gore-heavy violence.
To he fair Invincible is kind of story that puts way more thought to superhero and villain question and even reaches dificult anwsers unlike dc or marvel and is therefore kind of show where cecil/nick type of character can shine, if marvel or dc, whichever had nick would do a reboot similar to Invincible and its thoughts on superheroing, nick fury would have his Spotlight, but as neither is a deconstruction of superhero genre, it wont happen and if it does itll be because of desperation.
I don't think we'll get it in November but there's gonna be Invincible panel with Robert Kirkman, Gillian Jacobs and Sandra Oh on December 7th during CCXP Brazil and we should get the teaser/trailer there (I'll be very, very surprised, if we won't).
Depends, if its dc or marvel story, that are supposed to be about specticle of superheroes and villains duking it out, than guy like cecil wouldent even work, or be wasted, but Invincible is kinda story that starts out the way dc and marvel leave it, but grows to think deeper on cecils perspective and the whole superhero question and is allowed to reach conclusions that would be tetramental to dc and marvel stories and therefore story almost needs a cecil stedman.

Cecil is going to be a villain in the future and his methods and antics are going to the cause of it. He will take things too far and either become the enemy (along with the GDA) or turn Mark to the dark-side.
Haven't read the comics, but logically, nothing. The GDA would dose every water source worldwide they could find. You'd need a 100% private, unknown spring to avoid the chemical... assuming it's even in the water. Odds are it's in the air from water vapour if in the water. Again, assuming it *is* in the water, why would Cecil tell the truth about that, easier to go with a believable lie.

Nice Cecil vid. And sorry for getting off topic but I just wanted to say this because I’m really holding out hope that the new 40k show doesn’t get cancelled, so I hope someone from Amazon reads this. Many 40k fans and I are super excited for Henry Cavill’s Warhammer Cinematic Universe. I know that there is some friction between some of the involved parties because of the Custodes. However I genuinely believe that if y’all compromise with Henry and the fan base on the lore it will be an amazing project. While there are no female Custodes and y’all don’t want to commit too much screen time to factions that aren’t to your tastes; y’all can make a new faction (happens all the time in 40k / if it’s good GW canonizes it, ex: Retributers from Astartes animation), so if y’all wanted to make a new faction that you believe people would like, go for it. Example idea: a super capable female imperial guard / sister of battle or whatever is so awesome at what they do the Council of Terra decides to capitalize on that talent and super charges her (not far fetched in 40k at all)(idk maybe like some gene-seed from Saint Celestine or something). This project has a wealth of potential for not only profit but also to earn you a lot more loyal fans to your brand. If you made it this far thank you very much for hearing me out.

Count them watching this. Ouch
“Keep outta this Cecil” *tries to kill him*
1:15 I think Cecil legit just forgot to get that spot and came up with a reason off the top of his head 😂
It was left there because it was believed that the blood was that of the person who killed the guardians of the globe
I love how Cecil just took the slap from Debbie and kept on pushing. Like it's clearly the least of things on his plate. Cecil is a fucking gangster.
