It's so embarrassing refusing to watch a show that people keep recommending to you, and then you finally watch it and it's literally as good as they said it was. Goddamnit :(
YES but specifically it needs to have a scene of Tim chewing out some high school boys for also wanting to get pregnant, à la issue #61. Need Ives going "Yeah Josh had a little girl and he says it totally rocks!" and Tim goes on one of his corporate sounding PSA's where he really sorts out those troubled youths.
Also both girls who're excited about teen pregnancy being black, and being "set straight" by their mature white peer does NOT escape my notice. DC writers striking again bro :/
tim drake mpreg. reblog if you agree 🤪

Go for it girl, hit him with ur car 🔥
making cookies bc i just got told beating tim drake to death would be considered a hate crime
I'd rather have a thousand "OHMIGOD WE WERE RIGHT!!!" theory confirmed moments where due to good storytelling and foreshadowing the audience was able to figure out parts of the future plot than just one more stupid twist that makes no narrative sense to avoid being "predictable".
If people knowing anything about your plot spoils the show entirely maybe it's just no good lmao.
It's not worth ruining your narrative themes and character integrity just so everyone is shocked. Sometimes twists that have been guessed .... Are better.
marisol is the epitome of a plot device and i adore it
you can almost say...she's doing the lord's work
THIS! And I'm so salty about it, I'm about to make a post of every one of her comic outfits on my blog, because they STOLE HER SERVE! STOLE IT! And we need to reclaim it. I hope so badly that in future seasons she gets better outfits as she grows because this was a rare adaptation L
No one is talking about the de-cunt-ification of Atom Eve cause one of the few worse things about the Invincible show vs the comics is Eve only has one outfit per season, and the ones they do give her are fine, not amazing, but not hideous (ok maybe that season 1 shirt is very, very yellow). But comic Eve, what a fashion icon.
Eve RAAAAAGHh‼️🦅🦅🦅🦅
Uhh what to caption
Specific Invincible comic nitpick of the day-
Big missed opportunity regarding Terra Grayson is her superhero suit. Terra is both Mark and Eves daughter, and while it's represented in her look, I think they fumbled Eve's side by not giving her a cape :(
The Mark aspect is well showcased, maybe a little overdone. She's living up to her fathers superhero legacy, mostly just emulating his outfit with tweaks to the iconic "i" sort of similar to Marky's changes.
She also does something I think is important: Makes it her own in a way that isn't just combining her parents looks. Terra dons big, athletic-style frameless shield sunglasses which are uniquely hers, and really bring to mind her youth.
The Eve side of things was a letdown. The writers went "how do we make it Eve-esque and remind the readers that she's a GIRL? oh yeah, stick her in a leotard!" And it's so disappointing because leotard costumes suck, and Eve's cape is right there! The cape which Terra specifically points out is cute, and says is something she likes and wants! It'd be a callback to her childhood and would be waaayyyy better than giving her the stupidity which is leotard bare-leg costumes. I just think it's a much better way to represent that she's every bit Eve's child, as she is Marks.
RIP version of Terra Grayson that has a cape, if only you existed.
In the show maybe I wouldn't mind, the shorts would be sporty in a way that match her glasses. But that should be in addition to a cape. But a girl can only dream about her hyper specific nitpicks, which are really not that important.
High key missing Eve's comic outfits in the show. Like, I love that they're rewriting their female characters and trying to make them less 1 dimensional and stereotypical. Buuuuuut can't Eve do all that and still rock her feminine, almost always pink, fashionable looks in civilian wear.
2 examples of her peak outfits
I fear these pale in comparison.
I know Eve wasn't dressed to the nines literally every issue, but I always liked how they kept her wardrobe largely pink and green, she had a signature look and it was unmistakably hers. I'm probably the only person who cares very much about this, if at all, but I always love looking at the fashion in media. Omg don't get me started on how they stole her earrings though, that's a whole other thing.
I MADE SOMETHING! ALL OF EVES COMIC OUTFITS ON A DOC!
I love Eve's comic outfits! I like them a lot, actually. I think they're very cute, feminine, pink and there's a little more detail than comic artists generally care to give. And they got a lot better as time went on, the early ones are fiiiiine, but I like them best after #20. So I've been working on making an archive? Compendium? Collection? Of every single one of her 100+ civilian outfits, and I just finished it! It's in a google doc, there's a few photos of each (some were difficult to get good angles of) and they're all labeled with the Issue # underneath🩷💫 Keep in mind that while I tried to only get her outfits in the photos, there may be accidental spoilers in the background! So if you're a show watcher or just not up to date on the comics, be cautious, especially because Eve wears a lot more civilian outfits further into things.
I'm probably going to make it into a tumblr post (or a few? I don't know for sure if it'll fit all the photos) and maybe do rankings on my blog, and highlight my favourites. There's only civilian outfits (so none of her superhero fit, uniform or special armour suits) and I think there's 109 total.
Also planning on making an entirely separate doc dedicated to just her earrings, because good lord does that woman own/magically create a LOT of earrings, which I don't feel is fully showcased here.
Probably won't do Mark! He's awesome, but he also didn't wear an interesting outfit until he moved to space.
Anyway that's all, I hope somebody out there cares even a tiny bit as much about this as me, maybe an artist who wants to draw her and needs reverences, or somebody as overly obsessed as me. Enjoy <3
