I was a bit disappointed. People hyped it up because of the gore, but the violence isn't stylish enough to stand on its own, but also isn't backed up by a good enough story.

it gets better as it goes, but go ahead and miss out.

you could probably skip 2/3 of the story without missing much, though, especially Mark's storyline.

Why did you trust the hype? The gore was just a gimmick in an oversaturated genre. Think, TC!

honestly i just like superheroes in general so i watched it. it was pretty meh, way below The Boys.

and the animation was hella basic for like 90% of the season. i liked seeing all the extremely bloody fights tho, which is the only positive the show has. as for the social issues and meta commentary the show tackles, it doesn't break any new ground at all.

6/10 overall for the first season as a non-comic reader. decent action and some chuckles were had. everything else is basic as fuck.

I honestly found the brutality and nihilism of the violence to be extremely upsetting, which is only magnified for me by the praise the show is getting.

I don't think the story was anything special, but I think the actual writing and Dialogue was very well done most of the time.

I dont think it would have kept my attention without the stellar voice cast, but I did think the last 2 episodes were pretty great and I watched both several times.

I wanna second this. I'm not usually bothered by extreme violence, I've seen many things much more violent and gory and been basically unaffected, but the absolute lack of a point to it in Invincible really made me feel nauseous.

Maybe that is the point, but I don't think it's a good point.

That's precisely how it was meant to be portrayed. You were never meant to enjoy it nor not feel unsettled by it.

Something most people understand(hench the praise), but others dont, or maybe they just arent used to violence and gore in a mature, adult oriented cartoon like invincible vs, say Rick n Morty.

Ya i got offended when omniman talk bad about our species

I recommend u guys to watch fantastic planet. It another cartoon that deals with our species being inferior to aliens and kept as pets or treated like vermin. It has cool soundtrack and nice art imo.

Yeah I liked it overall but didn't really get the heaps of praise some people were throwing on it. Maybe that set my expectations too high I guess.

I love the comics a lot. The show is not as good as the comics so far but its still good. Season 1 was a 7/10 for me. Things will get a lot more interesting going forward

I liked it, except it sounded like JK Simmons was just waking up from, or just about to go take, a nap in every seen he was in. Old man sounded tired.
