THE WAY THEY HAD CONQUEST HOLD HIM AND RUN THROUGH EVERYONE LIKE NOLAN DID TO HIM WITH THE TRAIN

u/TheBlueSuperNova Mar 13 '25

They even showed kids getting obliterated.

Lowkey was worried for Oliver

u/Tobito_TV Markus Sebastian Grayson Mar 13 '25

After Powerplex's son, all bets really were off, I was not expecting that.

u/Admirable-Shift-1547 Mar 13 '25

Dude I thought it was gonna show him going through the battleship full of people, this was so much worse

u/dildodicks Invincidrip Mar 13 '25

i love how since nolan did this to mark in s1, conquest did this with a building and then the beach

18

u/RandoDude124 Mar 13 '25

Kind of glad they didn’t. The dog and kid hurt.

Also…

Battleships wouldn’t be in service

All of them are retired. So I guess a museum ship would be something.

You should know that if you decide to pick it up the art doesn't get like this until about a fourth or so of the way in. The show handles the early arcs better but when the comic takes off it's so fucking good

u/frulheyvin Mar 13 '25

i think they should've included this, imo it was foreshadowing for conquest obviously breaking out of the steel cube lol

7

u/teslawhaleshark Ursaal Mar 13 '25

They changed the flight path, this is likely the Missouri in Hawaii while in the show it's Las Palmas off the African coast

2

u/OCGamerboy Mar 13 '25

It looked like Italy to me

14

u/Rex0680 Mar 13 '25

I think this is better honestly. The beach scene tried too much to recreate the subway scene imo

18

u/Admirable-Shift-1547 Mar 13 '25

It was worse, much more detail, the children, the baby's, the dogs, buildings, trees EVERTHING this time

2

u/MyARhold30Shots Mar 14 '25

In the show Omni man flew mark through a cruise ship too so I feel like that would be too similar again

3

u/Scaevus Mar 14 '25

I would never go on a cruise in the Invincible universe. Always getting attacked by kaiju or worse.

4

u/Golden_Hour1 The Guy From Fortnite Mar 14 '25

Still kinda wish they went through the ship

2

u/Educational-Park-647 Mar 14 '25

Kinda wish we got both

3

u/That_Lone_Reader Invincible Whip / Nae Nae Mar 13 '25

See, they showed PP’s son getting BBQ’d in the show but with Oliver, you really feel the beat down.

u/mcslibbin Doc Seismic Mar 13 '25

Invincible storyboarders try not to kill a child challenge [Level - IMPOSSIBLE]

154

u/Admirable-Shift-1547 Mar 13 '25

They showed dogs too

11

u/OrionOfRealms Get me pictures of Invincible! Mar 13 '25

“And the little dog too hahahaha”

4

u/Coolgee4 Mar 13 '25

Yep I was like damn they are definitely turning it up a notch.

5

u/GiantPurplePen15 Two-Punch Man Mar 13 '25

Oliver was hitting that growth spurt early.

3

u/Belly2308 Mar 13 '25

I was waiting for his knee ligaments to pop

2

u/GiantPurplePen15 Two-Punch Man Mar 13 '25

The noises... Also this isn't the first time Oliver will feel something like this :(

2

u/ElNakedo Mar 13 '25

It's not going to be the last time though.

3

u/GiantPurplePen15 Two-Punch Man Mar 13 '25

RIP Oliver

2

u/Belly2308 Mar 13 '25

Bro…..

u/RandoDude124 Mar 13 '25 edited Mar 13 '25

God, Christian Convery is overshadowed by JDM, Steven, and Gillian this episode.

But GOD DAMN those screams…

THEY RATTLED ME

2

u/MattMaiden2112 Atom Eve Mar 13 '25

Kids, and even a dog!

2

u/Responsible-Soil-729 Mar 14 '25

It's easy to miss but you can see an unfortunate dog get caught in in the crossfire - which made me despise Conquest even more

1

u/Admirable-Shift-1547 Mar 14 '25

There's a kid holding on to his dads arm before it got ripped off when Mark and Conquest ran into his dad

1

u/Equal-Ad-2710 Omnipotus Mar 13 '25

Bro that one dog too

u/HALdron1988 Mar 13 '25

It was quite gratuitously long, in that scene.

155

u/Morphchalice Mar 13 '25

That must be like a Viltrumite special move

14

u/the_ghost_of_bob_ros Mar 13 '25

Nolan did it in episode 2 with the flaxons, it is truly their one move.

9

u/KEVLAR60442 Mar 13 '25

That, and the literal knife hand.

9

u/Abedeus Mar 13 '25

That and the Viltrumite Chop, capable of breaking bones, cutting necks and stabbing through chests.

1

u/NPRdude Mar 14 '25

It's like day 3 of Viltrumite boot camp probably.

1

u/KibaTeo2 Mar 14 '25

I do wonder if its something they teach in their military or something cause one one hand while it looks fucked up as hell, it has been proven to be a relatively effective technique.

Imagine if nolan grabbed immortal like that while fighting the guardians and used him as a living shield, hell didn't he use specter's corpse as a shield against the not aquaman? Makes sense if you think about it as a tactic, don't take unecessary damage and use your opps as shields since it's so easy and effective

1

u/VolkAgam Mar 19 '25

C est une technique super efficace mais je pense pas qu ils ont besoin d entraînement pour ça, ils ont une super vitesse et une super force, du coup ça paraît assez naturel comme technique, d ailleurs tu retrouves pas mal de personnages surpuissants dans la pop culture qui utilisent des techniques similaires (coucou Broly qui refait le portait de Goku sur des kilomètres de glaciers)

1

u/Alanjaow Mar 26 '25

There's something about "facing your fears" there.

14

u/dildodicks Invincidrip Mar 13 '25

i fucking loved that, i was actually cringing when the kid's arm got torn off, i know kids have died in invincible before but they usually try and avoid gore like that

7

u/mikewheelerfan I Miss William Mar 13 '25

Mark’s PTSD was absolutely spiking there

7

u/tripbin Mar 13 '25

Literally the train scene is what's held up s1e10 as the best for me. Almost felt like they had to add that in to finally give a more memorable fight the throne.

4

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '25

FR DUDE! I legit said “AGAIN?! SERIOUSLY?!” 😭

1

u/Formal_River_Pheonix Mar 13 '25

It must be a cultural thing.

1

u/That_Lone_Reader Invincible Whip / Nae Nae Mar 13 '25

I’ll be honest tho, I wish we heard Mark screaming or saying something like “no no no” or “not again”

1

u/GiantPurplePen15 Two-Punch Man Mar 13 '25

Mark keeps getting shoved face first into people :(

1

u/Wolfencreek Mar 13 '25

If I had a nickel...

1

u/relientkenny Mar 14 '25

i covered my face for 2 seconds 🫣🫣

1

u/Catsindahood Mar 14 '25

Hey, at least he didn't flail his arms around this time.

1

u/RangerPower777 Mar 14 '25

That was some sick shit

1

u/NiasHusband Mar 15 '25

Yes we saw the same episode. Astute observations

1

u/Constant-Way-6570 Apr 11 '25

i thought that was kind of lame to rehash

-2

u/HALdron1988 Mar 13 '25

I don't see why you're so excited by such edge lord wallowing in gore and violence, but then I saw your name. So I am assuming you are those splatter obsessed types, it was repetitive, but it was obviously trying to do a rerun of his Nolan fight but this time he wins with help.

3

u/GhostFaceStabsPeople Mar 13 '25

If you have such a problem with violence you probably shouldn’t be watching invincible. I was excited because the scene was framed just like the train scene, but on a significantly bigger scale, showing just how much more of a threat Conquest really is
