>>153540331Well, it's hack writing, but also Earth has become almost mythical. Anyone who could conquer Hell in a military campaign would have a lot of secured power.
>>153540216It didn’t say they were *always* a 100% warrior race.
>>153540331Maybe they're like Angstrom and they can only open perforations into nearby dimensions in roughly the same corresponding place.
>>153540388Tech Jacket is /ourguy/
>>153540216You're basing their performance off of invading Earth, where all the plot armor boys and other heroes live, and them being all warriors that utilize slaves isn't exactly unprecedented when we see the Viltrumites basically do the exact same thing.

Cory Walker's expressions have so much reaction image material.
>>153540741Would have been cooler if he had actually just been a robot instead of the little shit pretending to be one.
This series has a problem with walls of text
Amanda is such a fucking retard here holy shit."OH EM GEE You're being so MEAN to the ex-ruling class of warrior aliens who want to immediately turn everything back to how it was and continue subjugating everyone here and as many people in other dimensions as possible!"
>>153540802TOTAL ZAXAL DEATH!
>>153540776>Nevermind this. Rudy is a perfect dictator, no one should oppose him and instead just bend the knee

>>153540797Is Rudy's shittty clone body infertile?All that genius and he couldn't figure out a little superscience to knock her up? What a fucking failure.

I don't like the flaxan shit because it's so annoying that they are the aggressors initially and yet here they are acting like they have the moral authority and are defending themselves, or acting in retribution. Nah nigga, you're the bad guys, at least have the fucking balls to admit it.

>>153540396Bums of the Globe...
>>153541047I like this as a character moment for Thragg because he's not in royal attire and he's not putting Kregg on trial, he's just asking why he would do this.

End of issue #96Issues #97-100 tomorrow
>>153541140BASED
>>153541140Honestly, I get this as a decision. If you know as a matter of fact that one specific faction is causing all the problems, you want to get rid of them.
For those of you who aren't fully literate, this reveal isn't that he knew, it's that he's STILL pretending in current day and it's all part of the act, all part of the plan.
>>153541195>it's that he's STILL pretending in current daypretending what?
>>153541195
>>153541004>you don't understand bro, her breasts were T H I S big
To be honest why should Flaxans/Zaxals not be genocicded? They're multi dimensional war mongers and slavers that love killing and razing planets to the ground.
>>153541211Pretending he didn't know Amanda had a child >>153540675 when he actually did and ordered to execute the royals just before they returned to Earth >>153541140
>>153541246There were Flaxans who opposed that, they aren't the same as the Zaxal family.
>>153541250Thanks, I'm stupid>>153541246>They're multi dimensional war mongers and slavers that love killing and razing planets to the ground.Are you pro Scourge Virus too?
Pretending to have changed holy shit you dumb fucks.
Rex is based. What is the issue?
>>153541246Flaxans, no. Zaxals, yes obviously.
>>153541262Nah viltrumites are unironically more easy to deal with than the Flaxans. So the scourge virus shouldn't be used unless there's a situation where there's no other way to stop them.
Look genocide is bad...but measures need to be taken to contain evil elements.
That flaxan royal family unironically deserved to be murdered. In fact maybe if they were sterilized instead that could also work.
>>153540396Why are Earth heroes such jobbers?
>>153540776>Century after a civil war >Everything is still unstable
>>153540911t. Tyrone biggums
>>153541275Rex was based, Rudy's a faggot
>>153541330Kirkman's weird agenda
>>153541106He's in space now?
>>153541330ViltrumiteWANK.
>>153541318The original zazals sure. This guy is a third generation enslaved miner living in a wasteland. A genocidal and pro-slavery enslaved miner, sure, but he doesnt deserve to die for having shit politics or punching on with his deadbeat dad
>>153541140The final solution to the flaxion problem is Nolan flying into space and diverting multiple comets into their planet
>>153540730>15 years for enslaving countless people is too much
>>153541330Its's like Saiyans in Dragon Ball.
>>153540515Best boi.>>153540647This is some Jerry Springer shit
Should have just chemically castrated all of them
>>153540979kek that face
>>153541400Yeah he was groomed to believe that shit was sweet before Rex showed up and ousted their family. Something about a cycle of revenge I'm sure
>>153540515ENTER
>>153540740>who knew running an entire civilization would take up so much time
>>153541400You're right let's send him to a shithole planet instead so he can live the rest of his days there instead.
>>153540865The bigger question is why would she ever change to her monster form for sex?
Kirkman has Robot being so douchebaggy, but then even after the series is over turns around and goes>He managed to drive Immortal insane and take over Earth again despite being reduced to a brain in a tube lolWhat is the point of all of that?Its like he can't stop sucking the ginger's dick with such effortless takeovers of Earth twice, the first time involving gratuitously genociding most of the existing superhero cast and then the remainder (as well as Nolan's viltrumites) basically not opposing him since his dictatorship is just so great.
>>153541407Nolan struggled to even beat them, took him a year
Wait this is the second time a chick has been given a dick in these comics. Here with Amanda's monster form and also Zack's main love interest revealing all Geldarian chicks have weird giant xeno dicks. Is kirkman a futafag alongside all his other godawful fetishes?
>>153540856Oh my god the evil slavers were in fact evil slavers
So, between Amanda and Rex who's more at fault for the bullshit that will ensue? Who will be made to look better or worse by the show?
>>153541140>Eve getting abortion GOOD>Robot ordering abortion BADKirkman flip-flopping again. Sad!
>>153541469That flaxan obviously asked her to do that.>>153541547Amanda
>>153541533>all Geldarian chicks have weird giant xeno dicksSo like female hyenas?
>>153540922D-did you record it?
>>153540856swear to god its physically impossible for a comic to be more retarded that invincible
>>153541547>who's more at fault for the bullshit that will ensue?Call me crazy, but none of them are to blame, it's more like they both make each other worse. Unironically if Robot was stranded with anyone else we'd be far better off.>Who will be made to look better or worse by the show?The man, obviously.
>>153541562A woman being retarded and being convinced into helping the royal slaver family get back in power?Idk, seems pretty realistic.
>>153541547Both of them fucked up bad and in turn made eachother's fuckups worse. The show will have Amanda be blameless and Rex a raving madman driven equally insane and horny by power and happily openly abusing it at every turn.
>>153541007It feels like the story is trying to gaslight the reader into thinking Amanda isn't a massive idiot for siding with them.
>>153541549>Eve getting abortion GOODHuh? Did we read the same issues? No one treated it as a good thing, least of all herself.
>>153541622It's character assassination for Amanda. She's been fairly likeable all this time and then they hit us with this shit.
>>153541047I feel like 80% of the character growth for men in this can be described as "what pussy does to a mf"
>>153541605more like a millenary high tech society somehow has angry peasants that lynch retards on the spot so you have to condemn an entire population of blueblood people - that could just be like, miscenegated - to slavery and the chick that's LITERALLY HEAD OF GOVERNMENT can't pick even the basics of this situation despite being LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF YEARS OLDWhat did she do in this time? Try to be become woman with the most orgasm in history?Swear to god I'm starting to believe the "kirkman is a mysoginist who only writes women to stand around and look hot" allegations.
Robot did nothing wrong
>>153541533futa is a normal boomer fetish, like 1 in 3 uncs are into it
>>153541651do you think rex ever asked her to take off the belt and lower her age back down?
>>153541547Amanda for both. Rex's plan would have worked without her intervention but Amanda's "plan" would just had the same result of Zaxal's starting up their bullshit again but quicker.
>>153541140The fact that the royal family came back even after all this just makes me wonder how powerful they are, how many supporter's do they even haveHow did they lose in the first place
Amanda is super sexo in these goddamn
I don't care how complex the language is, how do you go 700 hundred years and pick up zero language, zero parts of the political game
>>153541762kirkman did a piss poor job explaining it but the flaxan world is wasteland tier and the species actually needed to conquer worlds just to existSo the dillemma is Robot driving himself insane trying to make the flaxans pacifists while avoiding civilizational collapse AND being a literal democracy because lol capeshit
>>153541791Anon, she's a woman. There's no space in there for a second language.
>>153540740>Admit she doesn't know anything about running a planet>Still judges him constantly about how he is doing it
>>153541195So, he predicted that Monster Girl would have a son and that the son would rebel and undo everything he did? I don’t know. He’s smart, but I think that’s too much. Also, he sounded too surprised at the invasion, because he ordered the fetus to be hunted down, yet there it was, alive and revengeful
>>153541799Amanda actually pointed this out and that there was other options like peaceful contact with an other dimensional civilization or logically opening up a portal on a world that was uninhabited and then going there to prospect resources.
Ugh you chuds just don't get it, he was being mean!
>>153540993Tomorrow we get one of the most iconic panels in the series with Invincible and not Anissa.
>>153541106invincible is the world’s most pro-STEM comic.
>>153540469Smartest guy who ever lived and he can't figure out some kind of translation device?I'm not saying it has to be easy but you're doing century-long time skips here, give me a break.
>>153541730I'll do you one better; realistically Amanda definitely dated at least one of the pedos she says were trying to get her phone number.
>>153541140nooo where's the ddl? i need to know what happens next
>>153541885Presumably at some point he enjoyed the power of being able to communicate with his underlings while she was none-the-wiser
>>153541730Jokes aside, she definitely has to take the belt off at some point when her monster form becomes weak enough to be a liability.
So can she just pingpong between ages by taking her belt off without her biological body ever wearing out?
>>153541928I hope she survived King Immortal going postal because Amanda has the most ideal form of immortality.
>>153540232Rebuttal: they never said his powers turned back on.
>>153541842He left as soon as he ordered the royal family to be executed so Amanda didn't find out. Of course he would be surprised to see them survive.
>>153541939Nothing implies that is not the case, even if she loses it and Robot does not want to make a new one as long as she properly paces her transformations she can live forever.
>>153541791You can't pick up the political game if you don't pick up the languange, and if takes a super genius decades to learn it then what odds does an average person have?
>>153541970After Mark eventually dies of old age, she can go live with Eve
>>153540143Is that a bitch scrubbing the floors? Awooga
>>153541985I know that since it took Rudy 10 years and he is a genius but you’d think Amanda would have learned some words or expressions in the 700 years she was there.
>>153541836>You're not allowed to criticise politicians because you don't know how to run a country
>>153542038She's given several lifetimes to learn and is in a position of power. She actively choosing to speak from an uninformed perspective.
>>153541885This whole thing feels like it's full of problems that Robot either can't solve or isn't allowed to solve even if it the solution is obvious.
>>153540848Probably has something to do with it taking an actual century to age a year. >>153540865>>153541469Monster form is male
>>153542134Yeah, that's my problem with it. I don't mind the idea of the Flaxan plotline but you can't have the literal smartest character on the cast be stranded on the planet for a near millennium with multiple different solvable problems and not have him solve them.>he neglected his wifeHave him build a drone. If he needs some Earth-specific part, send Amanda to go get it. Few will have the chance to even recognize her. She'll be gone for a couple years but will come back with enough resources to split up your workload by a half dozen.>Amanda couldn't speak FlaxanBuild a translator or communicator.>Rudypoo is too stupid to just do inter-dimensional trading????????????????????????And all of this is over an insane timespan that barely gets properly addressed. They had to intentionally nerf the bastard mentally for the plotline to work at all which makes me wonder why they even bothered.
>>153540848The Maulers don't really have to bother with fertility when they can just clone themselves.
>>153541140Unironically the right call, Robot did nothing wrong here
>>153541549He's ordering a genocide
>>153541400Anon when you depose a royal family you have to destroy the bloodline at it's roots, you have to kill every member of the royal family EVERY.SINGLE.ONE. or they will, without fail, good government or bad govenment, come to over thrown the country they believe is rightfully theirs
>>153540993kek why did cecil sign his cast
>>153541140He should have executed them the moment they were defeated. The fuckers waited multiple generations to reclaim control over the Flaxans.
>>153542452T. Lenin
I'm just gonna ask here since this is an Invincible thread.Are there any story differences between the show and comic or is it just race/gender stuff? Thinking about watching it but if it's just a straight adaptation I'll probably just skip it.
>>153542663There are some changes to the story.
>>153542663>>153542699Changes in tone as well, comic feels a lot more comedic at time while the show leans more into drama
>>153542663The 1st Season has the most differences shuffling events around, but the others have notable differences too.
>>153542699>>153542724>>153542756Alright, I'll check it out. Thanks guys.
>>153542663It notably worse as writers, and SJW have gotten worse. Stick to the comics
>>153542663One thing off the top of my head is having Titan portrayed as a sympathetic anti-hero who is only clawing his way up the criminal underworld to make his city safer and ensure the safety of his wife and daughter.In the comics (unless it changes later), he's just another dude that wants to be top dog for the sake of being top dog. Though these threads are my first read-through and I've only watched through season 3 of the show.
>>153542663the gaurdians of the globe twist is much better executed in the show, in the comic it's just a short footnote, in the show it's treated as the main series hook cold open.
>>153543256Also in the comic Nolan absolutely destroys the fuck out of all of them with ease, and in the show he's pushed to the absolute brink to beat them all.
>>153543276Oh, and the Demon Detective guy was pretty much a joke if I recall correctly in the comic. Like he solved the "mystery" of who killed the Guardians well after Nolan just admitted it and everyone knew.
>>153541939>curse>gives you a form you have complete control over that gives you incredible power and protection, also a very realistic path toward eternal youth and immortality. also doesn't prevent suicide on the offchance an existential nightmare occurs.fuck I wish a witch would curse me.
>>153543276Yeah but in the comic it was an 100% surprise attack
>>153543276that's definitely an example of the difference between kirkman rolling with a vague premise he has no idea won't get cancelled after a handful of issues and having years to think about doing it a second time.
>>153543301Isn't that the same thing that gave Dinosaurus his alternate form, a magical curse? Though unfortunatly he has no control of his psycho alternate personality so sucks for him.Why are some spiteful curses from random witches able to empower jerkoffs with such incredible strength but we never see intentional magic being used to utterly fuck the likes of viltrumites?
>>153543293That always seemed stupid, Kirkman too often got off on making characters take up page time with them just being incapable and lacking in credibility for no reason but a pointlessly cheap joke.
>>153543301the point of these curses was explicitly the assumption that you would have otherwise lived a good life and transcended to heaven, leaving the dismal mortal world behind. they don't make any sense in a materialist context.
>>153543452Judeo-christian religions didn't invent the concept of cursing people through supernatural means
Invincible sucks! Unvincible is way better!
>>153543461the ones where you live forever with superpowers definitely were.
>>153540388something tells me we're not going to get zoe in this scene
>>153540515THERE GOES OUR HEROWATCH HIM AS HE GOES
>>153541140it's just a clump of cells robot, geez
>>153543223it's so fucking stupid but you're not allowed to portray a black guy as 100% in the wrong anymore
>>153540132Is it ever addressed that Atom Eve's name has a religious context, but she aborts her child?
>>153544230im sure kirkman was patting himself on the back
>>153540143good thing this planet has the exact same time system earth does and these characters are able to keep track of it in their heads
>>153544330how do you expect other sentient life to operate off?
>>153540825rex cucked again from beyond the grave
>>153544230Christian women have abortions, anon
>>153544486and they will burn in hell as is right
>>153544562>and they will burn in hell as is rightJust as for forgiveness as per your own rules
>>153544043It's not even "100% wrong". He's just another player in the game. I don't know why the show absolutely NEEDED him to be a sympathetic consequentialist, using his position to make shit better for everyone.He can just be another hungry dog, it's ok. In the show they portrayed Mark as naive for helping him, since all he did was get used by Titan and replaced one crime boss with another, then backtracked a bit to go "well no, wait, he's a good guy!", so Mark wasn't really naive and he wasn't really wrong.
>>153540388>>153541004So, what’s Kirkman trying to imply here?Did the alien girl invite them all to a gangbang?
nightmare blunt rotation is robot dinosauras angstrom levy maybe throw immortal in too
>>153544630you repeat sentiments without understanding nor knowing their actual meanings>>153544654i already explained thishe's black
>>153544698Oh you're one of those Mamon worshipers or worse a Papist
>>153540797If she wanted a baby that bad why didn't she impregnate Rudy while being a monster?
>>153544698That image is retarded, I can understand the rules of your book without personally needing to follow them, like of course I think they're retarded but the thing is it's your book you're not going to think it's retarded.Alright here's a dumbed down example one person(Person A) follows the church of always wear red, another person doesn't (Person B), A on this day is wearing blue, B calls A out for not following his religion. There you go it's that simple you can call out hypocrisy without following what you're calling out.
>>153544771Anon...>>153544865There is a difference between "Practice what you preach" and "My interpretation of this religious text is the correct one despite my disdain for what you believe in".
>>153543301Without robot's belt fixing the curse, you'll be reduced to a literal drooling baby within a couple years. The curse unironically does suck
>>153544904>"My interpretation of this religious text is the correct one despite my disdain for what you believe in".Okay but my interpretation is correct no matter your cope you can hold disdain while still being knowledgeable
>>153544968What you said>"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."What your kind always leave out or live in ignorance of.>"Go forth and sin no more."Eve never even ackonwledged she did anything wrong so your argument is pointless.
Amanda’s monster form being revealed to having a monster cock that gets someone pregnant this late into the book is stupid bullshit Alan Moore would do.
>>153545099so it's genius?
>>153545110In a cosmic sort of way, yes.
So you're telling me in 700 years Rudy never thought about clapping alien cheeks? Not even once?Say what you want but the man is loyal to his girl. People now a days start thinking about open relationship two months into being a couple.
>>153545099You wanted it to be revealed earlier?
>>153541379No, whoever recolored this page just forgot that was a hologram of Earth pointing at the location of every nuke Dinosaurus has placed around the planet, this is how it's actually supposed to look
>>153540802DEATH TO ALL ZAXALS
>>153540533What's her problem?
>>153545472Is this corrected in the volumes?
>>153540675Rudy is such a controlling piece of shit
>>153540935Amanda's outfit is so hot
>>153545932I lifted that page from a previous Invincible storytime that used those instead of the individual issues, so yes.
>>153541842No, he was shocked by the baby, but he knowingly hid it from Amanda and now that the baby survived he's pretending to be shocked so he can keep Amanda as his girl. He's a manipulative bastard
>>153540563wait it took them decades to finally fuck? I assumed they had been together this whole time
>>153546535they were like 12 for decades
>>153540856this flaxan arc is comedy kino
>>153541762It's just classic mythology shit. Your people spend centuries, generations banishes to the wastelands to be slaves by a usurper. Rebellion ensues and is spearheaded by the long lost true heirs, who take back the throne to restore your people. Even if you have to omit that your family was even bigger enslavers.Granted, the Zaxals also seems to be an extended term that contains most allies and sympathizers still explicitly on their side by war's end, so they may have been pretty large in number
>>153545261I'm just making a mindless observation because I get a feeling that Monster Cock Amanda was always going to be the punch-line since her inception.
>>153541791Amanda is shown to be far more ground level and cares more about the actual suffering. She's not able to participate in high level political scheming, but is way more in touch with the people than Rudy
>>153546904ahromansand arabs, i guess
>>153540802It's interesting that he says Monster Girl first here, centuries later. Says a lot.
>>153545251>Say what you want but the man is loyal to his girlRudy just has no penis. Amanda has to have enough of one for both of them.
>>153546084I wonder how many of these Issue to volume changes exist in comics, I wonder if I Hate Fairyland's current volume reprints remove Neil Gaiman's quote praising the series since in the most recent run that was removed from the "More by Skottie Young" section, and I know that in the Unfunnies some character designs were changed for looking too much like Hanna Barbera characters, and that recent releases of the Invincible/Spider-Man crossover change one line to now reference Amazon Prime.
