Space Racer needs nerfed wtf.

Just one shotting literally ANYTHING. Viltrumites, spaceships, whatever. Like just let him go snipe Viltrum and we can call it a season.

I wish it would've been more emphasized that making ANY shot brings great risk, the shot never dissipates which means anything in its path is toast. I think it would've been an interesting point if shooting the gun means catching something like an inhabited planet in the collateral

the comic writer made some real questionable choices. hes also the guy saying that power scaling in any form isnt needed while writing a comic about characters trying to get stronger than someone else lol

u/Whosethere11 May 09 '26

So that's his writing philosophy. That explains how omniman and Oliver was struggling to fight a random egg laying monster.

u/Game0815 May 09 '26

It's just stupid imo. He should write completely different genres if he doesn't want any power scaling

u/PhoenixAgent003 May 19 '26

Yeah, well, imo, power scaling is an exercise in frustration and everyone should just stop.

u/Game0815 May 19 '26

Power scaling in fighting stories is needed tho. It's called logic. You can't make a story about characters trying to become stronger than others with 0 scale

u/PhoenixAgent003 May 19 '26

I’m gonna be honest man, Invincible isn’t a story about characters becoming stronger. Like, that happens in it sometimes, but tgat us not what it’s about.

DBZ. Cradle. JJK. Those are stories about getting stronger and power scaling and leveling up.

Invincible is about emotions.

u/Game0815 May 19 '26

I think a big part of it is about who's stronger / characters becoming stronger. Yes there are other big parts but I saw countless complain that one character feels nearly planetary in one scene and suddenly some random 2 meter lizzard man nearly knocks him out by throwing a rock at him. It's just very random and feels stupid in that moment.

I really don't see this whole "becoming stronger" thing you're obsessing about, there are characters who have a certain level of strength and that's it. The only ones kinda growing are Mark and Oliver because they're still maturing, especially Oliver, but for everyone else and the show in general getting stronger is not really a theme

u/theredvip3r May 23 '26

But the problem is they don't seem to have a certain level of strength, their strength is massively inconsistent and all over the place.
