This shows use how multiverses are done correctly, they arent just an excuse to resurrect an exact clone of a character with no personality differences.

I enjoyed the first series.

But I really dislike 'multiverse' storytelling, so I'm not sure if I'm going to continue with it.

There was a topic about a week ago maybe, and someone said that we're getting like 4 episodes this year, then the next 4 starting in March or so next year.

It was but I prefer it introduced much later into a franchise rather than at the beginning. Particularly after the universe and characters are well established.

That and Invincible having to deal with evil multiversal dopples of himself right after proving his trust to his friends and family, then doing it all over again is not an arc Im interested in.

The multiverse story is not long and will not even last the entire season.

I forgot that I never watched the Eve special. Then I got a few minutes in and heard Lance Reddick. I immediately got too sad to continue. It came out of nowhere. I'll try again after I've prepared myself

Which is one of the reasons I'm not into superhero stories.

Invincible was the exception.

I could easily explain why ai123's fears are unfounded. I've read the first 10 volumes of the comic (there are 25 I think in total)

But it would be spoilers. But I promise it's not anything like Spider-Verse.

I think the first episode of Season 2 was really good. Looking forward to the rest!

I really hate that most streaming services dont drop shows all at once anymore. In the beginning, one of the reason I wanted to pay for these services was so I could watch how I wanted-binge, or week to week, or however I felt like. It was an added value of the model for me.

But I have accepted that this is how most streaming works now, so I will be back on Friday..

I'll give it a watch. The first series was strong enough that it deserves that.

The moment I hear 'why is [insert character] acting so strangely?', my finger on the remote might get a little twitchy, but I'll push through if it isn't going to last.

This sums it up pretty well. I think it's Kirkman's best comic, and I love TWD.

If they do it anything like the comic, that won't happen, if I remember correctly.

Mark's evil doppelgangers pretty much just show up all at once and start wrecking shit, so there's no real question as to who's who.

The show is already doing some things differently though, so you may turn out to be right. We'll see, but I have high hopes.

Also, anyone notice how the title screen is changed?

1 from season 2. 2 technically if you count the Atom Eve special. But that came out before season 2 began ands its a prequel about Eve's childhood. Of season 2, only 1 episode. I think episode 2 comes out tomorrow. Or tonight. It's 4 episodes, 1 a week. Then a break. Then I think 4 more in early 2024. Whole season is unfortunately only 8 episodes I believe. But season 3 already has been in production for a while. So it might not take as long as we think to get it

There has been at least 2 topics about it. Only 1 episode was released so far, so it will be discussed when the new episode pops out.

Yeah, that was a good episode. I thought that the cabinet that wouldn't close would turn out to be Cecil spying on Mark and Debbie, but I guess that that Cherkov's Gun just represented Debbie's innability to truly move on from what happened. Overall, there's a lot more exlporation as to the character's inner feelings than what the comic did, and it works out really well.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Mark's vulnerability revealed in that kaiju fight...that wasn't in the comic, was it? It's been so long since I've read it that I don't remember.

Also, these two episodes made me realize that Steven Yuen can be chilling as a villain. Just with such a blank intonation he can sound so as-a-matter-of-fact evil "Yeah, they nuked Europe off the map to kill my dad, then just wore me down. Oh well." Well done on his part.

Also they already started working on season 3 a long time ago. So I don't think the time between season 2 and 3 will be very long

Except for the one thing that bothered me: that no one in the series suffers real consequences for their actions...except for Mark. Poor Mark.

Okay, maybe Allen did on one occasion.

No, I don't think they have the rights to those characters, as far as we know.
Science Dog, for example, had to be turned into Seance Dog in the show.
