Omniman holding his son in front of a subway train just to make him watch all of the people on it die is some of the darkest shit I've ever seen

comics were great but this show sucks
- As soon as I saw what was left of The Immortal literally raining down on the field, I knew this episode was going to knock it right out of the park
- The first twenty minutes or so were fucking incredible. As I said, the Evil Superman Trope is hardly new, but it's rarely been done so effectively. It perfectly demonstrated just how terrifying a being anywhere near Superman's power level would be in real life. Mother of God, that train scene...
The opening section was so brutal I was actually glad they slowed things down in the last third or so.
- So the Viltrumites basically went Full Purge until only the strongest half of their society was left alive? Thanos approves this lifestyle choice
- JK bringing the heat as always. He was absolutely chilling in some scenes. Telling his own son that his mother was, "more like a pet to me"? Even to a guy like me, that's cold.
- Nick Fury wants to be Cecil when he grows upLove the scene where he shows Mark the weapons lab, which not even Mark can see because the chemicals in American's tap water make them unable to see certain spectrums of light.
All in all, a great end to a great show. 9/10. Bring on season 2
One thing that surprised me: since Omni-Man is Evil Superman, I'd expect him to have some kind of Heat Vision. Of course, with his strength, speed and durability he doesn't really need it. But I kept expecting him to cut people in half with his laser vision.
Incredible season. That was a brutal episode.
The, "clink" when Nolan punches Mark's teeth out and they land on the mountainside made me wince. Yeah, he's done much, much worse to humans, but the fact he's beating his own son nearly to death is tough to watch.
I read the comic. Is this a worthy adaptation?
Yes. It's pretty faithful.I read the comic. Is this a worthy adaptation?
I don't mind Rogen since his voice fits Allen's personality for me.I'm a bit distracted whenever Allen the Alien makes an appearance because I hear Seth Rogans fucking annoying voice.
It must be or else how did it turn out so good?I read the comic. Is this a worthy adaptation?
Final episode was fucking amazing. The subway scene was absolutely brutal.The final episode was like a horror show. Tough to watch. But a fantastic way to end season one.

Looks like it pulled off the evil superman idea better than anywhere else I have seen it tried before. Amazing writing. I even enjoyed most of the subplots. That robot hero was awesome.The final episode was like a horror show. Tough to watch. But a fantastic way to end season one.
