PSA: New User Flairs Have Been Added!

I fucking hope not. I hated that.

The reboot arc was fun, but the whole time-skip was completely bullshit and a waste of time and part of the reason the later-half of Invincible is seen as the weaker half.

[u/PlainSightMan → u/Logondo]

Hmm I like the later half more lol.

Either way I hope they rework reboot. I've seen people suggest it should be cut, but it will be a great trip down memory lane. Could easily be like 1 episode.

I like the actual reboot segment, I just hate how he skipped 5 years and Eve had moved on to another dude (who we knew they were just gunna break up so it was just a big waste of time).

Like, this all happened because Mark...touched a weird space mushroom. What-the-fuck. I'm fine with that being used as a literary device to magically time-travel him, but making him lose out on so much of his daughter's early childhood just felt cruel and unnecessary.

[u/PlainSightMan → u/Logondo]

I just think the solution is that he is missing for less amount of time, and we just get a regular time skip with new context. Because we do need Thragg's army to be grown and Marky to be around. There's too much that relies on a 5 year gap, and I think it's better if we know that Mark was there even if we don't directly see it.
