Invincible: Every Main Character Ranked Worst To Best

3. Atom Eve/Samantha Eve Wilkins

It has probably become clear throughout this list that Invincible's kryptonite to the genre's Superman-like tropes is its ability to make you misread its characters. Atom Eve is an excellent example of this, as she came across initially like the popular girl who would engage in a love triangle with the lead, but ended up striking out in one of the series' most compelling narratives.

Atom Eve wasn't just a hero who wanted to defeat villains. She genuinely aimed to help the world, and her decision to depart from her suburban environment and live in nature, helping those who need it most, really addressed the idea of what it even means to be a hero. The genre has you convinced that the best way to use your powers is to battle the bad guys, but Eve shows that there are other directions to head.

In addition to this, her alter ego of Samantha Eve Wilkins is such an easy character to love, as she practices what she preaches. Eve is kind and caring but still willing to poke fun at her peers and even make challenging decisions. She indeed feels like the second protagonist of the show, which is why she makes it to the top three.
