@@getnis-m6g Well you can't blame me when I first read the comic back in the day and I saw the similarities, then I heard there was an Animated show coming I was like "People are going to shocked and compare this to the Boys". Oh I know Mark gets raped. Yes I know Invincible is not Marvel, Invincible is part of Image Comics I should have put a full stop at the at the end of Superman rip-offs. I mentioned Marvel comics because it has its own like 4 versions superman.
This first episode is absolutely genius. It plays the 2000s superhero-teen-coming-of-age-drama cliche straight but then at the end makes it clear this is *not* the story you thought it was going to be.
Overall, I'd say that Invincible is a solid A tier show, but this first episode is S+. It is the perfect build up to the twist payoff, and it still succeeds at introducing most of the major characters and world building on top of that. It's probably the best first episode of any show I've watched.
Invincible is a mix between gritty 90's and lighthearted 2000's (possibly to make up as escapism for 9/11?). 2000's Spider-man, Fantastic Four, X-Men, Iron Man, but also has vibes like 90's Spawn, Blade, Carnage's debut, Onslaught's debut
"You can't see things how I do. My perception is just as fast as I am. The briefest conversation with anyone seems like hours to me. It's agony!" -Red Rush Sooo....Red Rush felt hours of head crushing pain.
Invincible started out as a satire of common superhero tropes, when the comic came out in the early 2000s, then it evolved and started doing it's own thing. Omni Man is obviously based on Superman (same powers besides vision, alien from another world), Darkwing is Batman, War Woman is Wonder Woman, Red Rush is supposed to be the Flash, and so forth. The Guardians of the Globe are supposed to be the Justice League. It abandons the "superhero parody" quite quickly though, as you probably see. Invincible is absolutely one of the best comic-books of the last 20 years. Also All Might is based on Superman as well, all of these main superhero characters with immense strength, speed, endurance, durability, vision are Superman-clones.
Fun fact: in the comic this show is based off of by the same name, Omni-man kills the guardians of the globe within seconds! (And I think on one page,too.) Shows just how powerful his comic book counterpart is.
Then again its only because they are ambushed. SPOILERS . . . . . . when mark goes back in time later in the comics he warns the guardians of the globe and they subdue omni-man
"He has the power to wipe out the entire human race, and if we believe there's even a one percent chance that he is our enemy we have to take it as an absolute certainty." -Batman, Batman V Superman Batman ain't looking so crazy with his contingencies.
16:23 voice actor for the clothier is Mark Hamill. How amazing is that. Man pops up in the best places giving his amazing voice to such amazing work. Perfect blend.
This show already hooked me with the amazing father son story between Nolan and Mark, but when the last 5 minutes happened I was shocked beyond belief!!! Also this episode has the absolute best description of how superhuman flight works. And I absolutely love the fact that Mark Hamill aka The Joker is the voice of the man who makes superhero suits.😂
The best suggestion I can give you about this serie is that it is just as good if not better on the second watch. You'll notice so many things that you didn't the first time around.
Hi Animelon! Thanks for reacting. I personally really dig the art style since it emulates on of my nostalgic shows, Justice a league and Justice League Unlimited. That’s a classic you might enjoy reacting to. Not sure how much traction it would get.
Invincible is basically a dark and twisted version of the DC Universe and it finally gave us a realistic fight between Batman and Superman RIP Darkwing and the Guardians of the Globe
Ok i wanted to wait till you got more episodes out but screw it, this is great. Also, love how you are picking up some of the vibes we are getting this early on. Looking forward to more :)
Welcome to the terrifying world of super-powered individuals. Where normal humans are mere mortals against gods. But not all gods are heroes, many are villains. Here's hoping Mark can truly become... *INVINCIBLE*
It's...complicated. The show flips a lot of tropes. Starting with the guard at the beginning that you *know* because he's discussing going on vacation he's going to die... doesn't. Then it intorduces you to the world's premiere super team...and promptly kills them all in the after credits. And...get use to deaths.
he's supremely powerful. in the comics he defeats the other superheros in seconds not even breaking a sweat. Here they have to liven up the tv show some so they had a drawn out battle. In reality he didn't even blink when he wiped them out.
"Why does he have a shirt that says Canada but they're in the US?" Have you not had someone go on vacation and the souvenir they get you is the place they've gone?
Not creating 1v1 situations is pretty hard when Omni Man is the fastest, beside Red Rush of course but that's why he died first, he should really have stuck to support, the justice league lookalike would probably have won if Red Rush stayed on pure support, saving heroes at the last moment. I figured the fake justice league would die because they're way too much derivative of the real Justice league so it was pretty obvious they mostly were canon fodder for a twist. That being said, I still appreciated the imagery of the pseudo-Superman slaughtering the Justice league and not just because he had a bad day or is being controlled.
21:57 its because its "Red Rush" its those punches and *the head explode* is in the matter of the moment (thats why others are moving so slow-almost to none) 23:47 nope when he is "Immortal" :D but yeah, those are fantastic series
just bought the entire Compendium of Invincible, all volumes/issues. The Comic is just as dark if not wilder. But you're in for a treat with this series.
funny thing, if you look back across the entirety of this episode. There was hardly any blood and definitely no gore the whole time until that end massacre. Then the rest of the show gives plenty, showing 'hey you thought this was light hearted? gotcha!'
Nobody could have helped Red Rush, because in real time Omniman basically just clapped his hands, like trying to clap a fly out of the air, but RR experienced in as if it were a slow crushing pressure.
Her: “Yes Omni man is the beacon of hope!!! He stands for everything good!!! Truth and justice just like all might 🥹.” Me watching knowing what’s gonna happen: “mhm yep just like all might the hero of heros… *sips tea giving a side eye.*”
My first time watching I didn’t realize there was an after credits scene and I had something to do so I stopped at the credits and was very confused when episode 2 started 😂It was like a murder mystery even though it was pretty obvious it was omniman
Oh, hype! Was wondering if you'd cover the series. Very glad to see. Invincible is excellent. The show is great although I do prefer the comic (its my favorite western comic). So good, and new season around the corner. Thank you for your content and time!
Awesome reaction. Yeah I thought the same thing. I thought it was gonna be a regular super hero show then that ending happened..... They are all modeled off of the Justice League.
in the comics it's even worse. omniman obliterates them without ever being touched except with embarrassing ease. other changes are in the fact that immortal never trusts omniman "I knew you were an asshole". and omniman replying "it's mutual"
Awesome reaction AniMelon this seems like a really good Anime show I might watch it some day I was playing Omni-Man in MK1 today all his moves and special moves are cool also I subscribed to your channel👍
Invincible was my favorite comic book and so was the cartoon series and this great that you are on reacting to it have an invincible week Melon Thank You. 😎👍🦸🦸👑
I just found your channel. Liked and subscribed for your Invincible journey. I'm also a fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender so I'll be checking that out as well. If you do more superhero animation, I highly recommend the following 4 which belong together in one Universe - Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series, Justice League, and Justice League Unlimited.

"What's he doing? What's he doing!?"
I believe that would be called murder. Multiple homicide in fact.
@@PandemoniumVicemanslaughter even
You know you’re an anime fan when the first person you compare Omni-Man to is All Might and not Superman 😂
Lol
@@AnimelonOmni-man is way more powerful than All might and is one of the many Superman rip-offs
Marvel has 4 of them in the comics.

Hahahahahahahaha😂😂😂😂
Disliking because you said thanks for the likes

@@damonestephens8722you should watch the first episode then, it’s iconic.

@@alexanderren1097 That's a boring conclusion.
@@Mordaedil K whatever
@@alexanderren1097
The red rush probably has the worst death of them all. So awesomely brutal
Most definitely would have been the most drawn out because of how he perceives time
@@travismarshall4914 Yuuup. Slowly getting his head crushed probably felt like an eternity
@@battlehammer4023 Actually, we followed his perspective in that moment. It lasted as long as we saw
"I wanna be just like you"
"You will be"
Just in time for Season 2. This series needs to be more popular. The comic had so many epic moments!
Fun fact: in the comic this show is based off of by the same name, Omni-man kills the guardians of the globe within seconds! (And I think on one page,too.) Shows just how powerful his comic book counterpart is.

I am SO excited about this series reaction. This is one of my favorite series premieres ever, and it just gets better.

In the comic that twist is handled much slower. The guardians get wiped out early as well, but we don't know it was Omni until later.

oh wow wasn't expecting this but you're in for a ride, amazing show

I never knew it started out so wholesome..
Welcome to the terrifying world of super-powered individuals.
Where normal humans are mere mortals against gods.
But not all gods are heroes, many are villains.
Here's hoping Mark can truly become...
*INVINCIBLE*
It's...complicated.

Yep, that’s a crazy plot twist. If you stick with this show your in for a ride, a very very gore filled ride
The Canada shirt is a reference to a shirt the lead writer's son had when they were young
I love the energy you have sm! :) cant wait to watch the rest
I need to rewatch season 1 now, I forgot how much I enjoyed it. Loved your reaction.
The fact she never picked up that darkwing is based off batman is hilarious
I thought he was based off of Darkwing Duck...
@@SchulzEricTalright, just and to ask, who did you think darkwing duck was based off of
This is one SICK-ass show. Took a really dark turn.
he's supremely powerful. in the comics he defeats the other superheros in seconds not even breaking a sweat. Here they have to liven up the tv show some so they had a drawn out battle. In reality he didn't even blink when he wiped them out.
"Why does he have a shirt that says Canada but they're in the US?"
Have you not had someone go on vacation and the souvenir they get you is the place they've gone?
"Is that Mark?"
Girl you were never supposed to think it wasn't 😂
Not creating 1v1 situations is pretty hard when Omni Man is the fastest, beside Red Rush of course but that's why he died first, he should really have stuck to support, the justice league lookalike would probably have won if Red Rush stayed on pure support, saving heroes at the last moment.

21:57 its because its "Red Rush" its those punches and *the head explode* is in the matter of the moment (thats why others are moving so slow-almost to none)
23:47 nope when he is "Immortal" :D
but yeah, those are fantastic series

You are in for one HELL of a ride invincible is amazing show but this show is brutal get ready for a bloody good time
perfect time to start cause season 2 drops november 3rd, you wont go through the agony of waiting 2 years😂
One Punch Man is literally the only thing I can think of where Superheroes had licenses LOL
I love how this whole thing is setup...to then get flipped over entirely at the end ;-;
How do you skip superman straight to all might?
That twist at the end of the first episode is a real humdinger😂
What surprised me the most was the amazing cast of voice actors
funny thing, if you look back across the entirety of this episode. There was hardly any blood and definitely no gore the whole time until that end massacre. Then the rest of the show gives plenty, showing 'hey you thought this was light hearted? gotcha!'
Green ghost looked so cool its not fair....
we can start a new rumor if you want. Watcha feeling? Lizard people? Alien? Lady from Victorian Europe? We'll make it happen.
I can’t wait to see you watch this show. And season 2 is around the corner
And now, Omni-Man is being brutal AF on Mortal Kombat 1.
Nobody could have helped Red Rush, because in real time Omniman basically just clapped his hands, like trying to clap a fly out of the air, but RR experienced in as if it were a slow crushing pressure.

YOOOO LETS GOOO, good show, buckle up, throw any conjectures or theories out the window.
Here we go
I think i’ve never seen a single person compare Omniman to All Might before, especially since they’re both based on Superman
I just think she doesn’t really know DC.
10:57 not a dream, Mark has dark bags under his eyes. Boy didn't get much sleep, too busy making craters in the pavement
So happy Omni-man's in Mortal Kombat 1 now lol
YOOOOOOOOOO Always reacting to the best shows!
Awesome reaction. Yeah I thought the same thing. I thought it was gonna be a regular super hero show then that ending happened..... They are all modeled off of the Justice League.
in the comics it's even worse. omniman obliterates them without ever being touched except with embarrassing ease.
other changes are in the fact that immortal never trusts omniman "I knew you were an asshole". and omniman replying "it's mutual"
OMG. YES. I can’t watch right now but leaving an early comment and like! So excited to see you react to this one😂
🔥❤️🔥🔥
Mark wasn’t dreaming lol it just cut to him sleeping that’s why he had bags under his eyes from being up late
A great show about a superhero son and his superhero dad who trains him.
heh We all heard that "omni k--" slip! All hail the Omni King :)
Well, I wouldn’t necessarily say Omni man is like all might. He’s more of if a kryptonian had a baby with a saiyan
show hits different during the second time watching :D
you picked a good time to pick this up
Awesome reaction AniMelon this seems like a really good Anime show I might watch it some day I was playing Omni-Man in MK1 today all his moves and special moves are cool also I subscribed to your channel👍
Melon... Strap in. You are in for one of the best-animated shows ever, and we're in for one of the best reactions. =)
No show (besides maybe lord of the rings) draws me to new reactors faster than *Invincible title card cuts in abruptly*
Damn.. Rest of the series is gonna be like 75% censored.
Omniman definitely has fuhrer bradley energy
You’re so right omg
I’m trying REALLY hard not to skip strait to the end
the red Canada shirt is an inside joke with the comic creator.
Our exact reactions
he looking at that comic in the bathroom...those pages with war woman are stuck together fo sho.
i'm pretty sure nolan wanted his son to be always normal
it would make his life easier...
Oh yeah!
FUN FACT: Amber is the real villain
Omni man didnt want mark to become a super hero you probably noticed that though out the show
Peak series
Great choice ❤
after you finish season 1 rewatch that scene with Omni Man and Mark after Mark first gets his powers by throwing trash into space :)
I just gave Omni Man a nickname, Black Air Force Superman
I call him RUclipsman, because that symbol on his chest is one sideways triangle from being the logo.

Invincible was my favorite comic book
and so was the cartoon series and this
great that you are on reacting to it have

Wonder why you thought he'd need a license to be a masked vigilante. Is that a My Hero Academia thing?
yes that is what she thought, it's also why it's called Academia, they go to school in it to get there license to become heroes
