Yeah, we're definitely not going get Mark x Eve till like mid S3 at best at this rate. I get they are trying to add nuance to the breakup but it's just tiresome to watch knowing how much better and actually relevant to the story going forward Mark's relationship to Eve is.

Why rush it in the show? He still hasn’t fought Angstrom yet

Definitely. It will make the payoff better and they're together for the entire rest of the series anyway

I like the slow burn but they seriously need more than 8 episodes a season. Having to wait another couple of years is going to kill momentum for the show.

8 episodes seems like enough. Its an average of 49 minutes per episode, which are animated, so they take longer than live action.

The normal 23 minute episode for an animated series compared to Invincible's 49 min would equate to 17 twenty three minute episodes per season for Invincible. So it has a solid amount of time each season.

The funniest thing is that I have noticed that only people that have seen the comics or otherwise knew the story in advance have been complaining about Amber's presence in this season. No blind reactors I've seen have had anything negative to say about Amber this season.

Yea it feels like some fans just want their favorite parts adapted so they want to skip over crucial moments. It’s dumb

Exactly this, people always seem to forget that when Mark learns that Eve likes him from her alternate self, that is the first moment he even begins thinking again about changing his girlfriend. This shit takes time
