Invincible: Atom Eve

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.

I personally had no idea this was getting released but I am glad it did. This special episode really helps flesh out atom eve's character and what led here to where she is now. And I loved practically every second of it the animation was great (as always) and the characters and tone are also super. I would say this gets almost as emotional and intense as the final episodes of invincible itself. I also feel like it would be really cool to see this kind of episode for other characters, ones like monster girl or rexplode as they have not really been covered much in the series (They could have been covered in the comic however, I have yet to read it).

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.

"Invincible Presents: Atom Eve" expands upon the origin of a character that I feel was a little underutilized over the course of season 2 of Invincible. This special expands upon her origin story with great effect and gives us a bittersweet end to it all. This special is much better than expected and it shows that the writers haven't seem to lose their touch. There is not a moment where it seems our previously established characters are written out of character. This special also provides answers about the true origin of Atom Eve's abilities. This has only made me anticipate season 2 even more and I will definitely revisit this special.
