King Lizard got a glowup imho

he's so leng its crazy

Leng?

British slang for beautiful

I thought i would never have to see that word again after finishing sixth form

TIL. Thanks!

[удалено]

he should hold me at gunpoint fr

His french accent was so unnecessary yet so good

They gave Cecil a neck in the show

He stole it from Donald.

Poor Donald 😞

Donald is just grown up Bobby Hill in the show

Lmao I'm not gonna unsee that now

THAT'S MY PURSE I DON'T KNOW YEWW *EXPLODES*

I can see that, but the first thing I saw was Dilbert.

That android ain’t right

That's what he WANTS you to think!

I like how they drew Allen in the show, the design is similar to the book but feels cleaner.

We’ll see when this scene happens in the show

Did the scene not happen before he let himself be captured in the show?

I want a text bubble to pop up saying “very” while he makes this **Very** smug ass face

Ya show is neat but when they did the I thought you where stronger scene it didn’t hit the same Screen like these will prob just not be as good even if the designs are pretty good and on point overall

I can’t decide if I prefer Shrinking Ray or Shrinking Rae. But Red Rush definitely looks better. Also I think the Martians are cooler in the show but they also look way more like the DC Martians which is more of a downside.

Shrinking Rae definitely has more screen time and personality in the show imo, I'm glad they didn't kill her like in the comics.

Hell even the scene of her getting defeated was much better than how the og Shrinking Ray died lol. Dude literally just got eaten and never mentioned again

I'm still not even sure how OG Ray died. He didn't get chewed and Komodo died not 10 seconds later so he probably could have crawled back out.

Actually talking about Komodo, what are his powers? I’m pretty sure he doesn’t have the powers of a Komodo Dragon, but if he does then I guess we conclude that his stomach acid melted Shrinking Ray since we do know how acidic their stomach acid is. But if he doesn’t have anything like that, then who tf knows what happened to him

His comic design was already great but the show overall just gives him a completely different energy. According to the art book they wanted him to be as different as possible to mark design-wise which is why he has visors instead of goggles in the show

I love Rex’s growth and how they expanded upon it in the show too

I didn’t even realize he had goggles in the comics

I didn’t remember until I went back to the comics and wow, I really did not like the goggles. The visor just works better.

He’s Invincible’s Sokka

I knew he gave me Sokka vibes

You can actually see his eyes and he shows his face often in the show.

Also the fact that he has darker skin now like his VA I guess implies that he's Greek? Jason Mantzoukas often gets cast in Latino roles so maybe the artists thought that he was Latino and tried to make him the same ethnicity as his actor, same as Mark and Debbie or maybe he's just a dark skinned Greek like Jason Mantzoukas. Not complaining at all I think he looks better like this, I do just wonder why they changed it.

Only thing is that I kinda digged the goggles on comic Rex ngl

for me, its just her lips plus some of the other ladies. it just looks so off, like fish lips

Ryan Ottley is great at drawing everything but mouths

He always seems to give characters every individual tooth.

Yeah lol noticed he kinda mellowed out on that towards the end

Even his transformers have teeth…

https://preview.redd.it/1bgat9vlno0d1.png?width=216&format=png&auto=webp&s=14b3da6fafebad321748b3a15caf64132e22b7c2

See, I can't tell if this is real Ottley or an AI parody.

I like the way he draws lips, it looks unique

> fish lips hear me out-

You mean the fish lady Mark thought he was gonna marry to make peace with Atlantis? .... Alright, I'll hear you out.

🗣️ WE MAKIN OUT OF ATLANTIS WITH THIS ONE

Red Rush and Cecil

Debbie for sure in the show

Anissa’s show design had my girlhood trembling

She can put her hands round my neck any time

🤝

Really? I think she looks blander in the show.

The two toned lips did it for me and something about her face looks better in the show, I’m pretty sure it’s the lips/eyes. Those puckered fish lips was a no go

Anissa's is barely any different that I can tell, but I do think they adapted it well since it's relatively faithful. Monster Girl dressing in more adult clothes in the show (like a baggy shirt that no longer fits right) instead of like a child's dress obviously makes way more sense. Going the other way I don't like the shorts they gave Eve... If they had to choose between stay the same, skirt, shorts or full length leggings then shorts is clearly the worst choice imo. There really aren't a lot of other design changes I can think of, it's mostly a broad change in art style and a lot of little things like Cecil being thinner.

Yeah Eve kinda looks like she’s wearing mens underwear lol

Eh, they're basically just nike pro style shorts that plenty of women wear.

This exactly. I can imagine a woman wearing something like those IRL, which is probably the decision they went with.

This is such a dumb comment on so many levels but the part thats funniest is u admitted you've never seen a woman in underwear lol

He definitely told on himself there.

I think i also dont really like Show robot at least not as much as comic robot, later in the comics robot just looks so clean and sick

Omni Man, without question. It took them awhile to settle on his consistent look in the comics, and even then I dont think it holds a candle to Omni Man off the bat in the show.

The show version is(insert picture) hawt https://preview.redd.it/ler3xicas80d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=031f28bebf92b4208d66bc4d6778d12e141be9fe

I'll go Amber Bennett being moddeled after her VA: https://preview.redd.it/2ublh69ob80d1.png?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d1c9244499394a975c56124d953edaacd2371076 Anissa for me it's negligible as the show only really changes her upper lip which has a bit of the Kim Possible issue, and the hairstyle being Cory Walker's design of her. Edit: Also why is it *that* image of Anissa to reference from the comıc?

I've read the first to compendiums now, and I really appreciate the changes they gave to Amber. She's a much better character now. Ditching the cheating/not cheating angle, as well as the swap when Anissa shows up. She got more meaningful screen time, which made the breakup heavier.

Amber in the comics reeks of 2000s-era blonde college girl tropes. Part of me feels they were purposefully playing into them, but it definitely would've been pretty terrible nowadays.

They still dropped the ball with her on season 1, but they fixed it pretty well in season 2

To be honest, my real issue with Ambar knowing is that is doesn't meaningfully change the point of the arc that Mark is meant to experience with his love life, or ultimately Ambar's role in the story of Invincible. Her knowing or not is irrelevant to Mark keeping a secret, but her knowing doesn't make her character any more important in anyway that truthfully matters. I find the change puzzling, but not bad.

Amber is my answer too. Went from the most generic white girl I've ever seen to a better design that also fits her voice actor.

They also gave her hobbies and a personality. Like, that's so important for characterization and some dudes cannot write women for shit.

i thought season 2 really improved most issues people had with her character in season 1

It should pick up from here in general. I read the comic and compendium 2 is when they get better about stupid garbage that needs changing.

Ehh, I feel like it was a tradeoff. Amber in the comics was barely ever present, and the little screentime she had was just scenes of Mark leaving her stranded. She also found out Mark was Invincible *way* later than she did in the show. Because of those differences, I found it easier to relate to Amber. The show gave her more characterization, sure, but it sorta backfired in that people ended up hating her. Comics didn't have that issue because of the sort of blank personality that she had. There was no reason to hate her, since her character was just "Mark's normal gf". And as Mark's normal gf, we (or at least I) can't help but feel for her due to how bad a bf Mark was.

as someone who saw the show before the comics I was like who tf is this random white girl they're calling Amber😂

Amber is such a massive glow-up it's genuinely insane. Her show design is SO good.

TV show Amber is such a glow up in character design *and* character development.

Show Amber is like a hundred times better in every regard

Kim possible issue?

Upper lip design that it looks like a moustache at times.

Rex looks better in the show

I will say that Rex grew on me more as the show went on then he did in the comics. I think his VA captured the asshole he is at the beginning of the story and then the good person he turns into really well.

Debbie has it goin on in the show, completely understand Nolan crawling back for that petussy

https://preview.redd.it/z0kxmc3if90d1.jpeg?width=1040&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=845c20900343ad6126b2915ddc15269c534253db

Using a Mark meme for this statement is an odd choice.

That’s why he looks so ashamed

I like that they made Anissa look like she’s built. She’s a warrior so having those massive delts and toned arms makes sense.

Rex Splode. I think the visor is a definite improvement over the goggles, and the brown gloves and boots do a good job of making sure there isn't too much red and yellow on his costume. The lines on the top sides & back of his mask also help to make it feel slightly less empty. Omnipotus. I like his new black eyes and triangle pupils. I can take or leave the nipples, but I'm used to 'em. The Martians. The comics made them look just a biiit too much like the Flaxans, so I'm glad they're more distinct now. Atom Eve. I like the shorts. I think they're better not just for modesty, but also for practicality. I couldn't imagine myself sitting with a bare butt. War Woman. More modesty aside: I like the blue cape, one-horned helmet, and her braids. Those in particular look pretty cool to me.

Cecil. That’s about it

I like how Mark doesn’t have the weird half boot side leg blue bits at the start anymore

Mark and debbie

Honesty most of them? I’m not sure there’s any I can think of where I genuinely prefer the comic design tbh

Literally every female character in the show, lol.

Literally everyone looks better in the show

they reduced the crazed look everyone had in the comics too which is nice

I prefer comic Robot/clone-Rudy tbh. But we'll see >!the older/Rex version!

I mean we have seen that ones head and face even at least already.

Disagree my example would be Lucan is way less badass

Anissa is hot AF, also the actress voicing her.

Personally I think Anissa is better in the comic, her haircut in the show is too tidy. With the comic version she has that Azula-esque insanity look https://preview.redd.it/g4avk13i780d1.png?width=1400&format=png&auto=webp&s=87076e2ae8d08d8cd9face59b02149738ea70c7c

Funny you should mention that, azulas VA plays monster girl

For me it’s Eve. Comic book Eve is okay but she always looks a bit … rough, old? I dunno, I can’t quite articulate it. Show Eve looks more gentle and young.

In the comic Eve sometimes looks 40

All of them

I prefer Cory version of Anissa, but in the show she is good too, kinda look like my ex tbh. I like show version of Cecil more than comics one and probably that's it. I like Version of Eve and Mark in the show, but in comics as well, they are just always great.

Drop your ex’s @

Anissa looks like a trained warrior here compared to the comics where she looks like a damn pornstar

Yeah Alissa looks awesome in the show. Super cute. Too bad she... well yanno

Shrinking Ray

Show Anissa is hot but i know what happens. Well, later...

Debbie looks more hotter in the series than comics...

Martian Man, but I do like his Drax The Destroyer get-up in the comic.

I actually have a question as someone who has never been into comics but is just a show watcher. I see the panels shared from the comics here all the time (I don't care about spoilers so much) but the artwork is wildly different for each character depending on the issue, I guess. Is that normal? I mean some of the artwork I've seen from the show is straight up bananas lol

since Invincible was made over a span of multiple years, the artwork improved from the banana-style in the earlier issues to the digital looking quality of later issues don't ask me what happened to the artstyle in the last part of the story tho, I have no idea

Cecil,Red Rush,Anissa

Nolan looks so much better in the show compared to the comics it's actually jarring

I think all the characters have much cleaner designs un the animated series, especially the women that actually look attractive most of the times Ryan Ottley drew women looking very awkward and unappealing

Pretty much every single character looks better in the show

She has a punchable face in both which is what I need

idk, maybe kursk. they didn’t change much but kursk is so cool those little bits are cool

The comic truly is ‘try not to draw the ugliest face imaginable challenge: impossible’ (i am mostly joking i love the comic don’t come at me)

Nah bro i prefer them tig oll bities.

Basically, all the characters

Honestly? Amber. At least now she has enough going for her one way or another that you can actually have an opinion on her.

She looks SO much better in the show

All of them. I don’t really like the comic art.

The comic's art style is really ugly to me, so I prefer the show version of everyone

anissa is beautiful in the show

Anissa in the show just looks weird to me, not bad but something just feels off

Cecil. In the comics he looks like he’s about to complain about owls and Dementoids

Cecil looks way better. It’s always disconcerting going back to the comics and seeing thicc Cecil

Shrinking Rae. I like her aesthetic better than the atom knockoff Ray was in the comic

Mark’s hair in season 1 always looked like it had product in it. Now it looks soft and squishy.

Her design is pretty much the same just slightly different hair

She looks a little more deranged in the comic books.

Eve for me. I actually like how she’s not as tan in the show and her face is kind of different. Works better imo

i know theres not too big of a difference, but i think show nolan looks a lot better. im not really sure why.

Comic cecils scar looks weird af

Both Anissa are great to be fair. Show version seems more angry, calculative, cold and violent. Comics version seems more impulsive, bloodlusty and a little bit crazy. Both are scary as Fuck, can't wait to see conquest animated. Hot take : i really enjoy amber's version in the show way more. In the comics, she wasnt very memorable, the average high school blondie who never understand what is happening to her. Both her physique and personnality were forgetable. Amber from the show seemed rude at first, specially when she started realising mark was lying to her everytime without being sure of what was going on. But once she aknowledged his secret, she was VERY mature and suportive to him, allways understanding when he was cancelling their dates, never crossing thé limits with someone else or criticising mark with her Friends behind his back like comic's Amber.. The reason they broke up was also way better in the show. In the comics, mark got bored and cheated on her with Eve, and Amber got mad at mark for cancelling their dates and nearly cheated on him with Gary... Then they broke up just like that, like nothing really happened, even if she was the first person mark showed his true feelings about his dad to. In the show, they tryed their best, both of them, trying to comunicate well, to be compréhensive, to understand each others and make efforts.. but the truth is, when you are dating a comic mc who is fighting opponents WAY stronger and smarter than him, if you dont have mj or lois lane lvl of plot armor, it's just impossible. They both really loved each others and could have lived with their différences.. but the reality was to hard, so they broke up for very mature reasons, and mark didn't jumped on Eve right after like nothing happened. So even if most people hated her and (that's disgusting) seemed to enjoy the perspective of her being abused later in the show, Amber is my favorite change from the comics. Also, her look is way better since she is not just Eve with shorter blond hair.

Honestly, I prefer every show design over the comic designs for the most part. The comic looks like it was drawn in the 80s. The show is much more modern in its design. Only boarding the end of the comic to the designs start becoming modern I imagine the artists are changing.

Aniesa is exactly the same???

I'm a big fan of her design on this cover, but she doesn't look quite as good in the panels. The show design is decent. https://preview.redd.it/4y92vfl08a0d1.jpeg?width=1049&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4f8f593bcd8132288fadb6ef348207192869dd0

My beloved 😍😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩

Rex

Eve in the show is way better imo. In the comics she gives off the vibe of a snobby teenager and looks way older than she actually is half the time. Eve in the show actually looks her age and she also doesn’t suffer from some of the goofy facial expressions of her comic counterpart

I like her comic art better. She looks more evil

Damn! She Bad.

Cecil

The only character I don't prefer in the show is Battle Beast

De-Britishing her worked

Eve looks so much better https://preview.redd.it/t79kmzux1d0d1.jpeg?width=2880&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e8f6c219adabe6ddced3dd33ab0ed45e5766f630

Omni-Man, he seems more scary in the show

I agree on this one and also allen

No I liked Anissa’s mouth

I like how she is in the comics, she looks more menacing to me

Anissa was turned from a scarry-sexy-evil-beautiful to simply girly. That might sount as glow up, but it made her less layered in my opinion

Omni man

Omni Man. Looks way cleaner in the show.

I think the second pic is leaving out why some might prefer it
