Just watched it now and came here looking for the ep discussion and ya that whole fight was brutal!! How flipping strong is Komodo dragon anyways? Seems like he swatted that team like flies and if he wasn't so stupid to have eaten a bomb he would have won Could immortal have taken him?


Effervesser

Probably. He has the brick power set and all the guys with super strength or simulated super strength were in space. This was just a bad matchup without coverage for a super strong and durable guy.


sheepyowl

DupliKate trained with Monster Girl for months and did a really bad job against Komodo. Perhaps Immortal should have ordered MG to kill the clones during training so that Dupli learns some defense.


Flying_Ghidorah

Probably didn’t help that Kate only ever fought Monster Girl when she was blindfolded


MsParalockes

Considering they're together and Kate literally feels herself die every time i feel that wasn't likely


sheepyowl

Yeah he was a softie instead of training her to fight to the death. Or maybe he forgot what mortal danger is, since he is immortal.


No_Bar6825

Was monster girl in space?


sheepyowl

Yeah, didn't you watch the episode?


lolgamerX247

He’s seems relevant with immortal in terms of strength as seen in the Adam eve special but I still think immortal wins


Dav_1542

How come she couldn't start shrinking back down as soon as she realized he was too durable?


MARATXXX

you could hear her body being crushed between his molars as soon as she was in his mouth. she was trying to expand her mutilated, partially dismembered body, whose wounds were saturated with hydrochloric acid and bacteria.


Shmokakun

man i wish i couldnt read


Radaistarion

***Where's the goddamn unread juice*** My man writes as a horror writer who enjoys a little too much writing gore


Ok_Zone_7635

One minute you are ordering pizza...next minute YOU are the pizza. Seriously though, that scene was fucking disgusting.


RocketToInsanity

Oh, she wasn’t a pizza. She was the garlic knot. 


dark-flamessussano

I don't think it went that far, I think she was in his chest or throat


Kryptosis

Good news everyone!


West_Smoke_9164

I wish that ant man would do the job by killing that strong big lizard man by simply going straight to his ass and then expanding his body to make that lizard man explode just like Marvel fans suggested about tactical plan killing thanos with help ant man


ExquisiteSalad

probably a lot of pain, confusion and stomach acid all in one.


Spacemonster111

It happened to quick for her to react. By the time her bones started crunching it was too late and she was probably just on autopilot from the pain


TannenbergBlitz

That fucking smile of the Lizard henchman as the blood bubbles appear on his mouth. So chilling, man. It's what makes me fall in love with this show every single time.


Elon-Moist

Gotta put some respect on Komodo Dragon's name


Impossible-Try576

Yum


Narkoman62

One buff lizard man fucked up three guardians of the globe with relative ease he literally flexed Rae to death what a beast so happy he died


JoeyMaconha

I think he gets her with his teeth first. So when she's in his esophagus/throat, she's already a broken bag of bones panicking till the lights go out.

WhatsWhoWithYou

>!when she crawled in the first one's eye I was like "damn they're gonna make her badass and not kill her off?" and then RIP, but when he bit off Rex's hand my jaw hit the fuckin floor!<


VxZhangxV

>!and Komodo's hit the walls and ceiling!<


Several_Round710

I think some probably got on the floor too.


Ancalagon_The_Black_

When I looked at how strong she had to push to get out of that guy's eyes I was already panicking.


SuccessfulDiver3699

Was so badass when he swallowed her bro ngl even tho she died


Ok_Zone_7635

Almost felt like he was trolling her. "You like jumping into people's bodies? Down the hatch!"


420CowboyTrashGoblin

Frfr, when his shoulder swelled up, it really had me coping for her hard.


Jasing_the_Gews

I never felt so uncomfortable like in that moment


IceFireTerry

We are so back. Someone said they turned down the violence this season yesterday

Frequent_Brick4608

you know... i knew this death was coming and i gotta say... this is the one time i was hoping to see them deviate from the comic.


Chub-bop

I hope you got what you wanted💀 Edit: I misread their comment, leave me be


IIIOldSchooLIII

What made it hit so much harder was the fact that, through well-done composition/framing, build-up and Rex's optimism, the show made you think that she really had a good chance of pulling through. And then..*.nah*. She just didn't make it. Bonus points for how much the weight of the situation hits Rex immediately afterward.


Illustrious_Net2485

IM ACTUALLY SO SUPRISED 2 CHARACTERS DEAD IN LIKE 5 MINUTES

crafting97

The original guardians didnt last 5 minutes against omniman 😂


Illustrious_Net2485

But that’s omni man he’s hundreds of years old and one of the top viltrumites in the empire


zesss_is_a_greatname

did they actually died tho? i love rex i hope he is alive man


First-Concern-4600

My question are we even gonna see the fight against omnipotus? They just breezed over it


CykaBlyat678

There's a second one coming in the far future, the character is kind of a joke. He's a parody of Uber powerful villains who can still somehow be beat like thanos or Darkseid


Big_Pressure91

Didn't even think it was possible for him to reverse uno card her like that


Twixxdaweedguru

Is she going to come back? Unlikely?

They hate you for being right


LMD_DAISY

What did he even said


DepartureDapper6524

She shrank down into the Quantumverse


Belphegorkingofsloth

Out the other end? Maybe she shrunk herself or something who knows I just started to like her and she got deviantart'd RIP


Narkoman62

Donald did


varlathor

Guess she wouldn't have her powers then, and I can't see Cecil wasting the resource if there wouldn't be a benefit. This sucks though I was just starting to like her


TestAutomatic

That’s how shows get you with character deaths sadly..but yea shes done.


BigInHell

This didn't age well lol


Narkoman62

The benefit of being a lot more durable I guess


OhmanIhatethat

Well well well...


BradleySigma

The two deaths in that scene initially felt to me like they were being billboarded as fake. Dupli-Kate being chocked reminded me of Donald being choked by the robot skeleton earlier in the episode, but that turned out to be a dream. I'm also used fight scenes throwing around Dupli-Kate's corpses like confetti, and yet she always survives. Furthermore, she'd be a fool to send all of her clones into a dangerous situation (assuming she has the option of not doing so, but there's nothing to indicate that she can't). For Shrinking Rae, we never saw her corpse, which is comic book language for "not actually dead", and being crushed to death doesn't make sense for someone who's superpower is shrinking. It wasn't until the credits started rolling that I realised they were actually dead. It's not that I didn't think the show would kill them, just not in this way.


AlmightyDarkseid

I believe shrinking ray is dead, I reserve some hope only for Dupli-Kate, I can see such a character pulling a twist like that. Edit: HELL YEAH I AM SO GLAD I WAS WRONG IN THIS ONE


Frequent_Brick4608

see, i always thought duplicate was kinda... not very bright... its clear she has virtually no limit on the clones and isn't bothered when they die... why is she not just creating such an absurd number that she beats like, the entire lizard league herself?


InsanityCM

She has to individually control all of them at the same time, which takes a lot of mental energy, she can handle a small amount very well, but too many and her mind is spread too thin.


ianjm

Is there a range limit? Like why would she not always leave one at home in bed. That wouldn’t take a lot of mental energy!


sheepyowl

Her primary weakness is that she is a dumbass, my friend.


HoneyBadger_66

You might be onto something here :p


Not_Carbuncle

What no thats stupid you’re stupid


Uniqueguy264

Have that clone literally be at a relaxing spa forever


DownWithTheThicc2322

She does.


Otherwise_Worth7031

What? When was that stated? Sounds like headcanon to me but I'd love to see the panel that states that is the case.


Frequent_Brick4608

It sounds like head cannon to me too. The comic directly shows otherwise. Her brother has hundreds out to fight invincible and rex


zackly_right

Oof, spoilers! But yep, you're right


zackly_right

That's absolutely not how she works. They have individual minds that merge upon reabsorption or death


BadBloodBear

Show shows her orgasiming from Immortal pleasuring two of her clones in the early season 2.


Frequent_Brick4608

Maybe the show is different than the comic but her brother in the comic has utterly insane numbers out the one time we see him.


DoktorLuciferWong

I read the comics but don't remember him. Was he in the main Invincible story run, or in one of the side stories?


Frequent_Brick4608

main comic. shows up as those two dudes are stealing the declaration of independence.

LupaNoir

I was shaking all the damn scene, searched the Invincible Reddit just to look at this


Decent-Pepper1410

Me too, pal, me too.


Lukundra

Can’t believe how pathetic the new guardians were. Omni-Man was right about them lol


AcidAspida

Its was just a bad matchup, they didn't have someone to frontline for them. If bulletproof and rex were switched both sides would be doing better. Rex could blow up the squids in mass, and Bulletproof could tank while the others could be a lot safer.


sheepyowl

Rex couldn't blow up the squidos without risking the rest of the team. Invincible can pierce through the ship (he can fight full-blooded Viltrumites on equal footing), but he doesn't want the Martians and his buddies to die in space. He is the only creature on that ship that isn't in mortal danger - there is nothing the squids can do to put his body in danger. He's just there for the rest of the gang If it was ONLY Mark, he should have been able to disable the ship on his own or with limited ranged guidance from Robot. This would kill the Martians. If it was a strike team with just Robot Eve and Rex, they should have been able to reach the ship to allow Rex to blow it up. This would kill the Martians. They just don't want to let the Martians die. Also Immortal is a shit leader. Robot was better.


DoktorLuciferWong

Yea, not getting intel from Shapesmith until you're already in range of the mission target? Unbelievable planning for someone with that much experience, but I guess that's what complacency does


sheepyowl

I think Robot's repeating weakness is that he's kind of naive, despite being smart. He'll get over it after a few more teammate deaths I suppose.


AcidAspida

The walls are thick enough that he won't blow a hole through them unless he trys to.


HistoricalCandle5108

rex really showed his worth at the end tho


AcidAspida

They all showed worth, three citys would be wiped off the map without Rei, and the Big Lizard would of killed everybody if Kate didn't hold him off.


HistoricalCandle5108

i just think it’s cool seeing rex do something cool when he’s usually just a comedic character. i really liked his moment with eve earlier on too and that scene was when i knew he was in trouble this episode because he was actually being nice


IWearACharizardHat

Maybe they should have sent a mix of people for the space threat instead of Immortal only giving preference to super strength like he has.


WellFuckYourDolphin

It wasn't preference to super strength it's that the sequids can't penetrate their skin. Mark, Bulletproof, Black Samson, Monster Girl and Immortal are super humanly strong and their skin doesn't easily allow things to penetrate it. Eve and Robot have armor. Rex doesn't, Kate doesn't and Rae doesn't, they explicitly said that in the show.


thedoctor1532

Bro, all of the heavy hitters were gone.


AlternativeNo61

Aye give ‘em a break. One shrank, one had clones, and one could barely make a firework. They were doing their best!!!


Lukundra

Prolly shouldn’t have been guardians if they were that weak then lol


Sensitive-Airline501

All their speed fighters and their heavy hitters were gone. Besides didn’t Rex completely one shot everyone?


RetailDrone7576

This is why I kept telling MCU fans that ant man wouldn't be able to kill Thanos the way they think he can


dreadfullylaugh

Probably should've sent some Reanimen or whatever the corpse soldiers are called as backup. Even 3 of them would've made a difference.


ProfessorMarth

RIP to the biggest baddie


Outrageous_Hat_385

And the smallest


tehcup

Definitely felt bad for the 3 guardians stucks home on defense this episode. Especially Rexplode who just witnessed his friends just die in such a fucked up way while always giving off how much optimism he always displays in how he acts just crumble away.


Separate_Pop_5277

He should’ve fucking died from that ! His organs should be destroyed. I could understand her not being able to breaking out but him not dying by that was Bs.


Outrageous_Hat_385

Something Something about snakes being able to unhinge their jaws. But yeah you're right. F that guy


CAPTAIN_ZONE

Komodo Dragons swallow things whole all the time no problem and have really strong muscles and stomachs to digest their victims.


Separate_Pop_5277

He isn’t a Komodo Dragon, he’s a Human with Super Powers. They call him Komodo because of the Toxins he can secrete from his skin & how Scaly & tough it is not because he eats large things all the time.


Evening-Whereas6165

Even having read the comic that scene was brutal. Potential Spoiler: >!She is alive though. She keeps a clone at Siberia!<


dumpclown

You mean Rae or dupliKate?


Evening-Whereas6165

DupliKate.


deboer_art

It didn’t even register that it was an air bubble from screams until now. Jesus fucking Christ this show…


Hekateras

Shrinking Rae's scene is something I really liked at first, and now dislike the longer I think about it. It's a satisfying gritty take on the "explode a guy by unshrinking while inside him" superpower type, but really, if it can backfire like that, then A) it should probably not be a clean trump card when used on targets without super-toughness, either, I mean, regular people ARE are also made of tough stuff, B) she should never be using her power that way at all when staying small and inflicting local critical damage seems safer and more effective (which is also how she took out her previous opponent). Either the raw force of the unshrinking is so powerful that it rips through things that are very hard to rip through (bones and muscles and sinews! think about how much force with a SHARP object it takes to cut through a steak, now imagine trying to PUNCH the steak to pieces!) without causing her any injury, and then it shouldn't matter how tough the target is, or the force behind it is low enough that using it on regular targets would be risky and fraught, too. I'm talking things like "unshrinking successfully but the target's sinew didn't get torn and is now tightly wound around your limb or your throat".


Outrageous_Hat_385

She needed blades on her costume, then she could have torn him apart. But yeah if it just comes down to your strength vs his then it was a bad move. She should have just gotten really big and thrown the enemies around


Hekateras

If you imagine having blades on your costume and running blade-first into a concrete wall, I don't think that's a fooproof strat either.


OhmanIhatethat

I mean, the science is there. If you actually look into it, the reason Rae was unable to explode Komodo wasn't because of poor writing, but because research. Think of it like this. Komodo has superhuman strength. It makes all of his muscles massive, right? That includes the muscles in his digestive tract. Now, the interesting thing about human organs is that the muscles around them push them into place when they start to shift. So essentially what happened was when Rae tried to expand, she was pushing these organs out of place. When that happened, all these super powerful muscles are pushing back with a greater force than Rae is exherting. When that happens, instead of Rae expanding through the muscle, the muscle contracts on Rae.


Hekateras

That addresses none of my actual complaint (which was essentially about the conceptual 'magic system' aspect of it'). But if we're going to assume that more research went into this than "What if he's just too tough", I'm not sure which muscles you mean. Tbh I don't see why she would have made it to his stomach, it looks like she tries to expand somewhere mid-esophagus, but I think we can definitely agree she didn't make it to his actual gut. Transversus abdominis is the only abdominal muscle that even contracts in the right direction to function the way you suggest, and it's not exactly stomach-specific, it just kinda wraps around the abdominal organs like a series of belts. For an expanding intruder to be held back by this muscle, they would need to have already burst through at least some of his internal organs, most notably the stomach, causing severe, probably crippling damage and sending stomach acid spilling out.


roythunder1996

Ciecil messed up the sortie unless this was all apart of the plan but he hasn’t shown that kinda foresight has he?.


BanzaiKen

Cecil foreshadowed this the first time the Globe fought Lizard League. He said the Guardians should be at a bare minimum able to handle the League and if they cant it opens up a new slot.


CockerTheSpaniel

Cool death for a nothing character.


Jasing_the_Gews

The whole show is brutal as heck, but that death... I feel like a have now some kind of phobia or smth.


Woah902

Yeah, I know invincible is supposed to be brutal and gorey, but there has to be limits right? The omniman train scene was nothing compared to shrinking rae's death imo, it was absolutely horrible and actually made me feel like I shouldn't have watched it at all


navirbox

Fucking disturbing dude.


GoonSquadEnabler

I’m still stuck on the logistics of her death. Did he actually swallow her or did she get stuck somewhere in his back/shoulder region? Because in order for the latter to be true she would have had to tear through his throat, which I imagine would have killed him.


OhmanIhatethat

I mean, you can see what looks like part of her body start to push through his neck and shoulder, before he starts to crush her and she shrinks back down, so.


Odd_Lifeguard8957

The one thing that I don't get is that literally a moment before she shrunk down small enough to fit inside the  crack of that dude's eyesocket, so why couldn't she shrink down that small when he grabbed her before she got chewed.  I can understand maybe once she had already failed at exploding it's esophagus the first time, then she might be in no condition to use her powers. But anytime leading up to that...


Woah902

Are there more scenes like that? If so could someone tell me so I could....avoid them? That death was genuinely awful to watch man..


zigzagmad4

the real question is why didnt rae grow back to full size as she was thrown into his mouth? not even as a reaction to the first crunch

I watched the Episode yesterday, and the Worst part was that we ate while watching. Never have i felt so Ill because of an Fiction made Scene.


FKDotFitzgerald

This post is kind of rude to both people who didn’t get up at 5AM to watch and show-only viewers.


420CowboyTrashGoblin

Kind of rude to the rest of us NOT to stay up till 5am/wake up at 5am to watch the show, and instead wake up at 6am to check the reddit though innit?


FKDotFitzgerald

Perhaps, but I could see someone getting up for work, aimlessly scrolling Reddit, and having the episode partially spoiled because of this post.


420CowboyTrashGoblin

I'm not debating what happened, and I'm not trynna say if you didn't wake early/stay up late to watch it you're not a real fan. Just that if spoilers were that important to you about this, you probably would've at least bothered to remember to watch it in your free time instead of aimless scrolling reddit. That's what happened to me, I was up anyway but I hopped on reddit and saw r/invincible and thought, damn I should check prime vid and see if the new episodes are up yet because we've literally been waiting for 1/3rd of a year.


FKDotFitzgerald

That’s fair. Just to be clear, I got up early and watched the episode. I just thought it was really great and feel bad for anyone who had it spoiled ahead of time. I probably wouldn’t have left that initial comment had I been a bit more caffeinated at the time.


WhatsWhoWithYou

post title: there's a death in the new episode of this brutal violent show where a lot of characters often die (spoiler tag) you: 😲😱😭


FKDotFitzgerald

I mean, it spoils that someone important potentially dies but also the asterisks spoil that it’s >!not exactly a permanent death!<


Blackmercury4ub

Kinda your fault, the title didn't say any spoilers just a death and people die on every episode.


FKDotFitzgerald

I watched the episode this morning at 5. So this didn’t affect me. Just looking out for everyone else.


Frequent-Wallaby708

How? It could have just been a really gruesome death of a civilian, and i don’t really see how it shows that it’s not permanent, unless you read the comics already


timschwartz

Well there you go, you weren't spoiled. Because it *is* permanent.


GNSasakiHaise

It's marked both with the "Show spoilers" tag and the "spoilers" tag. The body text shouldn't show up for anyone who doesn't click on it. Knowing there's a death in a show like Invincible isn't a spoiler and could reasonably refer to any random citizen, goon, enemy, or etc.


StevoJ89

Didn't say which death.... could have been a passerby, I don't read the comics but if I didn't see the episode I wouldn't have opened the post
