Invincible: Atom Eve

The dialogue throughout the whole episode was unbelievably strange. It genuinely felt like it had been written by AI. Maybe their writers are still on strike and the producers just asked chat GPT for a script for the show. Honestly, I just couldn't wrap my head around how bland and basic the premise of her problems was made out to be. "Best friend, I have powers" "Normal people don't have powers, you are strange and different. I no longer wish to be your friend, you are not normal, goodbye". The whole episode was clunky and brick-like. I enjoyed the animation and story but the writing was abysmal.

Atom Eve is a great prequel episode to season one.

I loved this special episode of Invincible. It's been too long since the first season so while some part of me thinks it's great because the shows back it's actually genuinely really good.. It's a great episode and character development even is it is incredibly depressing and dark. Atom Eve is a interesting character and a fan favourite so it's nice to see her fleshed out even more and adapted well from the Graphic Novel. As usual with season one the animation style is completely flawless and it looks much like the graphic novel. I don't think the show would be as good as it is if it was a live action adaptation.

A buddy of mine bought me the first compendium of the Invincible run (first 47ish issues) and I LOVED all of it and wanted more. I felt the same way after finally watching the first season of the Amazon Prime show; I wanted more! They adapted the look and form so well.

I don't remember reading any solo comics for Atom Eve though, if there even were any. I remember her discussing her story but not much past that and her parents that she never got along with. So as far as I can tell, this is an original story.

And it freakin rocks.

I've been impatiently waiting for Season 2 like everyone else, and this just has me even more impatient. I loved this. It was very entertaining and the action was directed really well in particular. That Highway fight is by far one of the highlights of the entire series. It was legitimately intense, but it also surprisingly depressing and emotional.

This episode ended up being a LOT more depressing and emotional than I expected. We don't get a ton of jokes or one-liners, if any. It's still excellent though. As far as superhero origin stories go, this was so well plotted and made. The voice cast did an excellent job, as is expected at this point.

The only thing that bothered me was the long pauses between character interactions. I have the same issue with the first season of the series and it's somewhat prevalent here as well. It just bugs me.

Other than that, this was extremely well done. Kirkman and co. Are on top form once again in terms of writing and character development. Atom Eve was one of the very best characters in the comic run, and now she's becoming one of the best characters in the Amazon Prime content.

Amazing episode/special. Definitely watch this if you're a fan of the Invincible comics or the show. I really hope they do more origin specials like this!

Samantha was beautiful even as a friend, but going through all that despite the way her childhood was tragic she still got something to prove making her and the invincible the perfect combo for the coming war, it's not going to be easy but something extra is coming to the mix and it's going to be awesome, this was Amazon best yet not coming from a shady back story that will piss you off but, the story line can be altered in a lot of ways coming from comparably other universes not saying but related to the best, other than that the story is bomb like the atomic one no wonder the this part is named by one character that depicts danger and respect at the same time, best yet though I can always wait for invincible season two all the best yet.

First of all, glad that we got a genuine surprise after so long and none of this was leaked at all.

The episode itself is great, it explores the origin of Atom Eve and how she got her powers and I believe made me like her even more by the end. It's not essential viewing as far as I can tell but it's definitely a good one especially if you have missed Invincible content in your life like me.

Also, the animation looks like an upgrade from last season. There's also a mid credits scene which you would wanna stick around.

I am glad this special episode exists and hope that we can get a few more in the future.
