Invincible: Atom Eve

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.

This special episode focuses on Eves origin story and shows her childhood life. While also showing some of the early heroes and villains along the way. The animation was top tier in this episode and the fight scenes were magnificent. Eves character is so fleshed out in this episode and you can really feel for her throughout. All the VAs were great and it really just shows how good Invincible Season 2 will be. The only thing I would critique is that it could've gone a bit farther into her life but this is still just amazing. Overall I hope the team at Invincible will do more of these special episodes for some other characters (bulletproof is my pick). But otherwise I'm giving this episode and 9.3/10 Invincible is back and Season 2 will carry on the success.

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).

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!

When i watched invincible and saw atom eve for the first time i knew she would be my fav character and especially for her powers. Watching this special episode and knowing her backstory made me love her even more. She kinda reminds of jean grey from the comics which is my fav marvel character for her pink powers and that's why i like her more. This was really unexpected but i'm glad it came out. It would be amazing if other character's backstory episodes were released too but that's not what we need atm. I'm not really a person of writing reviews for movies or series but this made me do it. Overall this was super enjoyable from beginning to end as always and i wish they continue to surprise us.
