I'm not familiar with the comics but I'm enjoying the show so much. Every episode is a turn I didn't see coming.

Watched it last night and enjoyed it. The whole Titan angle was pretty well done, although I didn’t fully understand the machine head thing. So he was actually the boss and Titan just took over? Seems Isotope changes teams pretty quickly/easily, no?

Just watched episode 5. I must say that the new Guardians of the Globe team is pretty terrible.

The Replicate girl isn't good for much else besides having threesomes. If she could make like 100 she would be really useful. But she makes 5 who gets killed immediately.
Rexplode can throw some tiny bombs. Not totally useless, but definitely not a heavy hitter.
Monster girl is pretty good, but she has that bejamin buttons going on. If she didn't die this episode, the team would be having to look after a 5 year old before long.

I love how his dad straight murdered everyone.. so, I guess he's bad.. but he's been right about everything else.
I.e. Titan using Invincible.

I'm very curious to where this will go.

Also that cat dude with the mace really messed everyone up. How is he not on the "world saving" radar?

Right, that's the joke and why it's funny.

Thanks for explaining it to us though, I guess.

Yeah, she seems to be around to get snuffed constantly; I guess she can do the suicide jobs

Anybody read the comic? Is it worth getting into or just watch the show?

If you’re interested read up until issue 80. Maybe a little after. The new storylines don’t see quite as high stakes or intense.

That’s when the main storyline ends and the comic peaks IMO.

I've enjoyed the episodes so far.
One issue I have, though, is the names of these people. Like- is Kirkman terrible at code names? I guess he didn't have that issue in TWD.

Allen the Alien?
Battle Beast? (horrible, horrible name)
Rex Splode?
Monster Girl?

Looks like a comic made up by my 7 year old Nephew.

I thought there were gonna get squad wiped like the previous team did that 1st episode lol. figured that let us know basically everyone was expendable except omni-family.

I thought omni-man was watching them battle. seems like he may be pulling some strings in the background

I’m four episodes in. Don’t see a damn woke thing besides a gay BF and a black GF for Invincible. Voice cast has been great. Soundtrack is stellar. I’m intrigued if they’re pulling a JLU bit where the freaky starfish shite mind controlled the league where the face hugger brain things have infected OmniMan on a previous mission.

Annnd, Robot long conning with someone.

Just finished the latest episode, holy cow this show is awesome

ETA: So my theory is that "Viltrumites" aren't actually sent out to "protect worlds" but to conquer them. Who knows about the dad and what his real intensions are, but it just feels that way.

Also Battle Beast really just kinda looked like he was holding back the whole time, shoot when the whole team arrived he just kinda stood back and watched as they were all fighting, and just kinda laughed at them. Every single time he stepped in, it basically was a kill shot, and the animation did a great job of portraying his "kill shots" as almost this boring thing he was having to do instead of trying.

It's walking a pretty thin line between being "inspired by"/"in the vein of" of Watchmen and just being a knockoff so hopefully it starts to become its own thing a bit more in the last 3 episodes.
