Anyone else annoyed they changed this? COMIC SPOILERS

Post image

Amazon primes doesn’t allow screenshots so I’ll just use this basic pic, but is anyone else annoyed Rae survived? Because if she survives, that means everyone survived the battle. Let at least 1 death from that fight be permanent.

Spoilers: we know Kate survived due to her 0 clone, so if Rae lives, that means no deaths that entire fight, meaning the point of the fight, showing that even trained superhero’s aren’t safe, is pointless

u/Formal_River_Pheonix Mar 21 '24

Your spoiler tag didn't work.

u/not_brayden13 Mar 21 '24

I jusy fixed it

u/Wonderful_Gap4867 Apr 09 '24

How do you use spoiler tags. It would be really helpful

u/not_brayden13 Apr 09 '24

I looked it up, I don’t remember off the top of my head

I agree with you here. I think there will be consequences for Rae, I don't think she's going to be the same or rejoin the fight.

u/IAmRedditsDad Mar 21 '24

I say she retires

u/GrimWarrior00 Mar 21 '24

In a way, being scarred for life like that is a worse fate

u/Orestruto Mar 21 '24

They have the trauma from the near death experience

u/solrac137 Mar 21 '24

Also I might be wrong, but her body under the bed looked short, so maybe she lost her legs ?

51

u/MaduroAhmetKaya Mar 21 '24

maybe she couldn't stay conscious to grow fully so it is her 3/4 length

u/Tzeentch711 Mar 21 '24

Detective Baby Legs?

u/MrUsername24 Mar 21 '24

I mean fuck maybe the stomach acid?

u/Pleasant-Discussion Mar 21 '24

Exactly. Mark barely surviving omniman didn’t lose all the weight of worrying about the hero just because he didn’t die. Stakes are not a binary association with death. Death is needed in the story at some point sure, but the battle is still meaningful with survivors scraping by, I mean look how much people love what that battle did for Rex. It clearly had stakes for him.

u/acrazyguy Green Ghost Mar 22 '24

I’m so excited that Rex’s character arc is getting to the good part

60

u/RX0Invincible Omni-Drip Mar 21 '24

They’ve already made that point at the end of the very first episode and will make that point again sometime in the future. Not sure why it’s so important for this particular fight to reiterate it.

74

u/megrimlock88 Mar 21 '24

I mean it’s a big moment for Rex as well losing two people who he considered friends and it breaks the impression that the new guardians of the globe are any more permanent a fixture in the story than the original who got murdered by Omni man

35

u/MR-Vinmu Martian Astronaut Mar 21 '24

I always thought the moral here was that he needed to be a stronger person to protect his friends, that moral still comes across here, he still learns that he has a long way to go, he was barely able to protect his friends in this fight, it was literally a save by the bell, he will still learn to develop and better himself so that when faced with another scenario like this, he’ll be able to protect them.

u/evrestcoleghost Mar 21 '24

i think watching it is enough for him

u/geeker390 Pentagon - Parking in Rear Mar 21 '24

To be fair, something to that magnitude hasn't happened to our main characters yet. It happened to the guardians, but we only knew them for one episode

4

u/RX0Invincible Omni-Drip Mar 21 '24

That’s fair, my point was just specifically against OP’s point. The most trained and strongest version of the team were already killed off which contradicts his point that we needed this specific fight to show that trained heroes aren’t safe.

1

u/Coltshokiefan Mar 21 '24

The point would be made much stronger if main characters we saw for more than 1 episode got the same treatment. No “good guys” have died in this show since episode 1. Still love the show but that point is not made, plot armor feels strong right now, but I know that’ll change.

12

u/TastefulMaple Spider-Man Mar 21 '24

I mean that entire fight proved they weren’t safe, Rex was lucky to be alive, he got out of that fight barely intact. If that device Rudy built didn’t work a second time, the sequids would’ve had both Rudy and Eve under their control, invincible got super lucky it had a little juice left.

u/Azsde Mar 21 '24

I never read the comics, is it sure kate survived?

16

u/nesquikryu Mar 21 '24

Yes, unless they majorly change that for no reason.

7

u/Nirast25 The Flaxans Mar 21 '24

Well, you just saved me from making a Reddit post about how Kate should be the one person to survived that whole thing, since she can just make a clone and have it hide somewhere.

To your actual post, I think the point still comes across. Yes, they all survived, but two of them are probably gonna have permanent injuries and it still show how dangerous the job is.

1

u/ianjm Mar 21 '24

If we assume the show is taking a different path to the comics there are many possible reasons Kate could be permanently dead, including there not being a Kate 0 (did we ever see one on screen?) and perhaps there being a range limit on her ability to control them, so hiding a spare duplicate somewhere would not be possible.

2

u/MoeFuka Mar 22 '24

Yeah, but they would have to make significant changes then because she's kind of important later on

5

u/Tank82111 Omni-Man Mar 21 '24

Rex lost his hand.

5

u/DrRadon Comic Fan Mar 21 '24

Do we know? Maybe they write her of the show if others get to stay.

33

u/LMD_DAISY Shrinking Rae Mar 21 '24

There many characters from comics who s not gonna make it into show due copyright. Theeir story could recycle to the Rae’s

10

u/The_Snake_Dick Mar 21 '24

RIP Invincible War cameos

3

u/JustBiz_Null Pentagon - Parking in Rear Mar 21 '24

I don't see Rae lasting much against an evil Invincible or The Order lol, I just don't see the point of bringing her back

1

u/LMD_DAISY Shrinking Rae Mar 22 '24

if there is will, there is way. They easy can upgrade her and level out field. And, honestly, they need to do that to everyone, because if happens what I think happens(didn’t read comics but saw some little spoilers implicate certain something), its gonna be super bad. like walking dead level of badness bad.

so, hopefuly they not gave in to comic fanatics and actually tried to do what best for story.

u/Rainfall307 I Can See The Furture… You Dont Live To See Tomorrow. Mar 21 '24

If they let Rae live unlike dying in the comics how do we know they’ll let Duplikate live?

1

u/MaxTheGinger Mar 21 '24

Is it confirmed?

Or are we getting a character flashback?

Or just a sad hospital scene?

1

u/Sharebear42019 Mar 21 '24

Isn’t she.. dead? Or did she show up in preview of next episode?

2

u/not_brayden13 Mar 21 '24

Watch the new episode

1

u/Sharebear42019 Mar 21 '24

Shit I thought they’d release at night

1

u/not_brayden13 Mar 21 '24

They did, last night

1

u/Sharebear42019 Mar 21 '24

Dang Wikipedia said the 21st so I thought tonight. Well damn lol

1

u/GhostRappa95 Mar 21 '24

Unless Kate is the one that stays dead.

1

u/tvlur Mar 21 '24

I feel like it was still disturbing enough to be effective. I haven’t watched the latest episode yet but I was already spoiled so oh well. And I know a lot of what happens in the comics moving forward. At this point Rae and Rex are probably deeply traumatized which I’m sure will come into play later. I think it still succeeded in showing that even “lesser” threats can be extremely dangerous for a team that is unprepared. Besides Rae was a non character before this fight, no reason to assume that’ll change just because she survived, and Rex was mutilated and still saw a lot of fucked up shit so his arc can still work essentially the same

1

u/Bitter_Bank_9266 Apr 01 '24

They all nearly died though, so the point is still there

u/ILoveRegenHealth Mar 21 '24 edited Mar 22 '24

Spoilers: we know Kate survived due to her 0 clone

Wait what? I must've missed that. I thought the very last two Kate clones left were deaded

u/nesquikryu Mar 21 '24

That was 1 and 2. Not 0.

u/TheVampireArmand Burger Mart Trash Bag Mar 21 '24

That’s cause it’s a comic spoiler

u/AlmightyDarkseid Mar 21 '24

They came close to dying, that was enough for me. I am glad that all of them survived by a hair.

u/Jeremy_Bradley Mar 21 '24

Kate IS dead though. It makes no sense for them to have a whole funeral, and let the immortal grieve if she’s still alive.

u/geeker390 Pentagon - Parking in Rear Mar 21 '24

This won't age well

u/ianjm Mar 21 '24

The show might take a different path to the comics. It already has if Rae survived.

4

u/geeker390 Pentagon - Parking in Rear Mar 21 '24

It's a relatively big point of the guardians' story, and while I think that anything is technically subject to change, I don't believe this in specific will.
