10 Invincible Comic Moments We Can't Wait To See In The Series
5. Eve's Weight Gain
Atom Eve has beena central component of the Invincible saga from the very beginning.
From aloof classmates to husband and wife, Mark and Eve navigated the tumultuous events of the series as a pair, and when Mark leaves earth to do battle with Thragg and the Viltrumites, Eve struggles with day-to-day life.
The obstacles she overcomes are not on a galactic scale, nor do they require heroic efforts to overcome. From her tragic abortion to her brush with death at the hands of Conquest, Eve's mental and physical health declines, and once Mark returns, Eve's appearance changes, providing a grounded, honest moment for the series.
Previously, her appearance has always mimicked her superhero counterparts, yet when faced with adversity, Kirkman ensures she reacts to it in a very human way. It's a reminder that the characters are created by real-world people, and are presented in a way that is always relatable.
Her change in shape is a result of a minimal use of her powers while Mark was gone, and as her return to heroism begins, the gradual return to what we knew comes with it.
While he's initially just happy to see her once again, Mark's reaction to Eve's change in appearance is priceless.
