Invincible: Atom Eve Discussion (possible spoilers)

I just finished watching Invincible: Atom Eve, and I felt like talking about it. In short, I thought it was fantastic! In a world filled with superhero origin stories, this was the superhero origin story I didn't know I needed.

Full disclosure, I've always liked the character of Atom Eve, both in the comics and the TV show, so I might be biased or at least already primed to like this one-shot. That said, I thought the animation was great (in keeping with the rest of the series), and the voice acting was spot on. It was a bit bittersweet to hear Lance Reddick again (I assume for the final time), but he was perfect in the role.

They did a brilliant job capturing the wonder, excitement, and heartbreak of Samantha's story. I literally gasped in time with her when she discovered her power, and nearly shed a tear in disappointment with her over her family. It's been a very long wait to get new Invincible, and Nov. 3 is still a long way away, but I thought this was a great reminder of what we've been waiting for.

What did everyone else think?
