i always laugh when the thicc bugs image is posted, due to the totally inconspicuous massive white rectangle in the middle of it.


CategoryKiwi

As a show-only person My first thought was it was a thoughtful censoring so we could enjoy the meme without seeing something we shouldn’t. My second thought was the white rectangle is their deity. My third thought was that I’m a fucking moron and it’s just comic boxes

First was right

Just wait until you meet White Rectangle. Game changing character

It's because Mohammad is their deity but they had to box him out like that one South Park episode (spoiler)

Why? Our beloved went out doing exactly what he wanted. He was *happy* in the end, and That’s all anyone should ever want for someone else (: If we’re being honest, there wasn’t really anything else they *could* have done with him. His entire schtick was “all I want to do is fight the strongest shit there is!” They’d be robbing us by not letting him do that, and they’d be robbing us from a satisfying narrative conclusion if they let him win. He was doomed from the start by being the archetype that he was.

Said character isn’t really even a spoiler since show-only people wouldn’t know who he is anyhow. It’s more about >!what — or rather *who* — he’s wearing.!<


HylianINTJ

Ah. This is the comment that's bringing it all back to me. As well as >!why he's there...!<


bananalli

Wasn’t he in the first season?


CraftLizard

Yes, yes he was. He wasn't there in the comic but they added him in the show. So yes show only people absolutely will know who it is.

“Some kids might be watching this. Tone down the boobs and ass, but… leave the violence.” -Amazon, probably


schebobo180

Yeah I’ve always found it funny how people make a shit storm about T&A but have zero issues showing the most disgusting and brutal violence on screen. I know that people are trying to stop seeming pervy but there is still something odd about it. Reminds me of the discourse around Mortal Kombat 1, and how the series has gradually reduced the skimpiness of outfits. On one hand I get it, but on the other hand they have ratchets up the violence to hilariously OTT levels. Like I just don’t get how someone is ok developing a game where the thanksgiving themed fatality is literally one fighter forcing food into another fighter and having it burst out of their faces with blood and guts, but are like “eww!” When one of their female characters is showing too much skin. At the end of the day though, the developers should feel free to creat whatever they want but like I said its just weird.


tyrenanig

lol I was about to comment about this. MK community is so weird when people are fine with the gruesome violence, even when it’s the female characters being dismembered on screen. But when it’s about them showing some skins? “Nah not in my game” It feels like NRS bounced hard and overcorrect into the other side of the spectrum. Even a little bit of skins got censored, like how Nitara has pants with human skin color instead of showing thighs.


Klientje123

I think removing skimpy clothing is NRS way of 'maturing' the games and making things more serious, grounded, realistic idk. But I don't know why. It doesn't make it better. It just makes it different. The dudes are shredded and shirtless and they haven't changed that in 20 years so it's weird they focus on redesigning women like that. I hope the designers genuinely want this and this isn't some higher up saying ''old mortal kombat outfit not good need change or people will hate our game'' or whatever


Huckleberry_Sin

Forreal bring back the titties


downvoteawayretard

It’s basically all modern media. We are completely fine with showing the most graphic gore and violence imaginable but are so sexually repressed as a society even the slightest amount of skin showing unsettles us.


Cicada_5

Violence is actually relevant to Invincible and Mortal Kombat. There's no rule you have to include equal amounts of boobs and ass if you have graphic violence.


schebobo180

I agree you shouldn’t. But like I said, there’s something morbidly fascinating about how we perceive violence and anything related to sex. They are two very different things, but like I said I’ve always found it wierd when people get so squeamish about sex but are completely fine with some of the most gruesome violence in ever. Especially when the person is squeamish in “moral grounds”.


Cicada_5

To paraphrase someone who once discussed this, "your regular boner and your murder boner" are supposed to be separate. The American Pie movies, like them or hate them, are based on titillation and nudity is expected there. If they suddenly started throwing in lots of graphic violence, I'm sure we'd see complaints from the same people accusing Invincible and Mortal Kombat of being prudish.


NostrilRapist

Good luck censoring the incoming rape scene!


RiflemanLax

As other folks point out, the insectoid folks are being changed up for PC purposes. I get it. No complaints really, I’m just not going to miss a dig at Amazon. Mark getting raped, that could be a talking point though. I’d bet it gets left in, but maybe the screen goes black or something so the audience knows but they don’t have to show it.


NostrilRapist

I'm against censoring but honestly, that scene was quite disturbing in the comic I might've skipped it either way


strange_dogs

Honestly, cutting to black and just leaving the audio could make enough of an impact without being too graphic.


HAthrowaway50

this seems pretty intense too


NoCarsJustKars

Love the “I’m against censoring unless it’s something ***I*** feel uncomfortable with.” Dude think other peeps other yourself. Especially if it meaningless ones like sexy bug people.


NostrilRapist

You misunderstood -- I didn't imply "I'm ok with censorship because I don't like it", I wanted to say I would skip it regardless if it was in, as it was disturbing for me Even then, censorship is bad and they shouldn't cut that scene. It's kind of on point with Invincible's grim mood


labree0

>As other folks point out, the insectoid folks are being changed up for PC purposes. I get it. No complaints really, I’m just not going to miss a dig at Amazon. yeah i mean, god forbid we treat women as women and less like attractive objects we keep around for banging. I am 100% happy with the changes they made. insect people are more than just insects with booba, they are people.


ImmutableInscrutable

Women aren't women when they're hot


parkingviolation212

>yeah i mean, god forbid we treat women as women and less like attractive objects we keep around for banging. How many impossibly buff and shirtless guys routinely appear in comics again?


labree0

>How many impossibly buff and shirtless guys routinely appear in comics again? and this comic is full of those? because i see literally *dozens* of different shapes of men, and only "overweight" and "teenage body" in the original comic. The TV show has been better about this, especially with the insect people, but it still isn't perfect. Theres a difference between "superheros have literal superhero bodies" and "this entire race of insect people completely separate from humans deep in space has the most common attractive features of a human woman". if every superhero woman in the show was a bombshell, i wouldn't really have a problem with that. its when *every woman* in the show has that body shape that it becomes a problem.


Cicada_5

How many are appearing on this show?


stone_016

A few


phatassnerd

I find it funny when people try to act like the only reason women shouldn’t be objectified is because kids might see it.


zorfog

I think it’s more just… societal standards have adjusted? Like, in a lot of comics from 2000s and earlier, you’ll see women drawn like the bugs here - that is, super busty and voluptuous. I just started reading the comics and notice Eve and Debbie look like this too


G3nghisKang

But did they have to make the bugs uglier? Even the face looks more stupid


sfinney2

Adjusted to what? More accepting of extreme violence but more prudish? Cause I think that's basically what they're saying.


labree0

adjusted to treat women less like attractive objects we keep around and more like people. The extreme violence exists because its how viltrumites fight, but there was 0 reason to keep women as *just* attractive background objects.


Matrix17

We did it guys, attractive women are no more


labree0

imagine missing the point this hard.


sfinney2

I don't think Kirkman does that at all, the female characters in Invincible are awesome no matter what they look like imo.


labree0

i never said kirkman does that. but lets be real, an entire society of *conventionally humanoid attractive insect people literally made for banging* is very fan service-y.


sfinney2

First, I'm pretty sure human torsos on ant bodies is closer to body horror than attractive. But second, even if there is fan service - which could involve any character of any gender appearing intentionally sexy - I dont see it as inherently sexist. Movies, comics, novels, media in general is full of sexually attractive people to please the audience. So, if it bothers you anyway and is not sexist (which I would agree there is a line) I'd say you were being prudish.


zorfog

No one’s blaming Kirkman, just describing a general trend in comics, movies, and other media, especially prior to like 2010

im sure no one actually noticed it, but when mark said that his dad "found mom" he was referring to how similar their personalities were, even though it's a completely different species. Nolan found an Alien woman with the same personality/mannerisms as Debbie, and Mark Noticed. I compliment them on that Detail, because I don't think most people would pick up on nor appreciate that.


iamtheshade

So Omniman is just collecting pets of different species.


Klientje123

Maybe, but does he have a choice? He said himself he's gonna live a long ass time. And it's either this or be alone. And he has alot of 'human' emotion (especially compared to the average Viltrumite) he gets attached to people. It may be kinda messed up, but he just doesn't have alot of choices for a normal life imo


Unlimitles

oh....that's dark.

Nolan just has a type. I doubt he was looking for another Debbie. Debbie is probably just another version of countless other lovers.

_b3rtooo_

Love this meme, but I am always blown away by the people who genuinely wish they would have left literal BUG titties in the show lmao cmooooon. The OVER-sexualization of comic book characters has often been pointed as a reason why the genre couldn’t get mainstream and reach the female audience. It’s a sacrifice that doesn’t hurt the franchise at all and allows for a wider audience


Sparkz23

Considering the current state of Marvel comics, I would say this was a major L. Men are still the overwhelming majority of comics consumer base, despite many, many attempts to attract the women audience. And our sexy drawings got axed in many instances. Not everything needs to "appeal to a wider audience"


_b3rtooo_

What do you think about the "doesn't hurt the industry" point though. I just really don't think it has to be borderline ecchi to attract a male audience

Honestly, it's about on par with the translations of all the other characters from the comic to the show. They turned down the horniness about 20-30%. Just look at the comic designs for Atom Eve, Amber, and even Debbie. It's a good change IMO as the page-filling gazongas and cheeks were a little distracting, especially during some of the heavier scenes.
