¡Hola comunidad de Hive!

Que onda mis cinéfilos?? Andaba un poco perdido por acá, y la razón es que no había tenido oportunidad de terminar las series que tenía pendiente por falta de tiempo, pero al fin pude retomar un poco las riendas de lo que andaba viendo.

En este post les traigo mi opinión sobre una serie llamada Invincible, la cuál la terminé hace unas dos semanas y no voy a negar que me enganchó bastante. Mis gustos van en este tipo de series, que traten de superhéroes y animados, pero esta fue diferente, ya que te permite ver la realidad de ese estilo de vida y la serie te muestra lo que todos queremos ver, la triste verdad detrás de ser un "héroe".

What's up my cinephiles? I was a little lost around here, and the reason is that I had not had a chance to finish the series I had pending due to lack of time, but finally I was able to retake the reins of what I was watching.

In this post I bring you my opinion about a series called Invincible, which I finished about two weeks ago and I will not deny that I was quite hooked. My tastes go in this kind of series, that deal with superheroes and animated, but this one was different, because it allows you to see the reality of that lifestyle and the series shows you what we all want to see, the sad truth behind being a "hero".

La trama se centra en Mark Greyson, un adolescente de 17 años quien es aficionado a las historietas y los héroes, aparte siendo hijo de Nolan Greyson mejor conocido por su alter-ego como Omni-man y quién es considerado como el súper héroe más poderoso de la tierra así como protector de la misma. Mark al poco tiempo comenzó a desarrollar sus poderes, que consisten en súper fuerza, poder volar, velocidad y al final había una habilidad que no terminé de entender si tenía pronta recuperación con heridas más graves o como funcionaba pero hubo ocasiones que lo dejaron muy mal herido y no sabía si su recuperación se debía a su sangre de Viltrumita o la buena tecnología que tenía el gobierno.

A raíz de su desarrollo de poderes, su padre comienza a mostrar un poco más de interés en el y lo entrena para que domine sus habilidades bajo el lema de que los viltrumitas fueron enviados para proteger el planeta, para que un día junto a el, puedan proteger la tierra. Pero, como todo niño, a Mark comienzan a irse las cosas de las manos, se deja llevar demasiado por sus poderes y al ser hijo de omni man, comete muchas imprudencias y se mete en problemas que realmente no puede afrontar solo sin traer alguna consecuencia consigo, es aquí donde te muestran el primer batacazo de como es ser un héroe.

Un poco antes de todo este suceso de los poderes de mark, hubo otro acontecimiento que conmocionó totalmente a la humanidad entera y se trataría nada más y nada menos que la muerte de los guardianes del globo, los cuales son el grupo de superhéroes que vemos en el primer capítulo de la serie. A partir de este punto, comienza la incertidumbre, el caos y la destrucción de la confianza en un pilar de "justicia" ya que realmente es relativo, entonces, nacen los problemas alrededor de Mark mas allá de los que una familia normal y un adolescente pueden tener, ya que el gobierno comienza a monitorear a Greyson porque sospechan de Omni-man ya que el fué quién tuvo el último contacto con los guardianes del goblo y lo ven como la única salvación contra su padre.

The plot focuses on Mark Greyson, a 17 year old teenager who is a fan of comic books and heroes, besides being the son of Nolan Greyson better known by his alter-ego as Omni-man and who is considered the most powerful superhero of the earth as well as protector of it. Mark soon began to develop his powers, which consist of super strength, flying, speed and at the end there was an ability that I did not quite understand if he had quick recovery with more serious injuries or how it worked but there were times that left him badly injured and did not know if his recovery was due to his Viltrumite blood or the good technology that the government had.

As a result of his developing powers, his father begins to show a little more interest in him and trains him to master his abilities under the motto that the Viltrumites were sent to protect the planet, so that one day together with him, they can protect the earth. But, like any child, Mark begins to get out of hand, he gets carried away too much by his powers and being the son of Omni Man, he commits many recklessness and gets into trouble that he can not really face alone without bringing any consequences with him, this is where they show you the first blow of what it is like to be a hero.

A little before all this event of mark's powers, there was another event that totally shocked the entire humanity and it was nothing more and nothing less than the death of the guardians of the globe, which are the group of superheroes that we see in the first chapter of the series. From this point on, uncertainty, chaos and the destruction of trust in a pillar of "justice" begins, since it is really relative, then, problems are born around Mark beyond those that a normal family and a teenager can have, since the government begins to monitor Greyson because they suspect Omni-man since he was the one who had the last contact with the guardians of the globe and they see him as the only salvation against his father.

Aquí es donde entra mi punto de vista, sobre la realidad de ser un héroe, y es que en este tramo adelante, Mark debe comenzar a tomar responsabilidades que para un chico de secundaria es imposible de llevar al no tener la madurez, por lo que en eso se basa la vida de superhéroes, un constante acoso a tu vida personal por parte de ciertas personas del gobierno o villanos así como el hecho de tener que renunciar a una vida normal, a tus relaciones, puede que debas alejar ciertas amistades y enterar que realmente todo se basa en un mundo donde utilizado como un escudo. También la serie encarga de tocar puntos como la vanidad de que algunos superhéroes solo están por la fama, ganar dinero y acostarse con chicas, cómo lo sería el caso de Rex.

También te muestra, en el caso de Evatomica, un choque de identidades, el saber y querer descubrir quién eres, que propósitos traes en la vida y para que eres bueno o en qué puedes llegar a ser bueno, con el uso de tus poderes. De vuelta con Mark, la cara que experimenta creo que es la más dura, ya que le toca vivir el acoso constante de entes gubernamentales en su hogar así como experimentar diversas tareas que parecieran fáciles para un viltrumita.

This is where my point of view comes in, about the reality of being a hero, and is that in this section ahead, Mark must begin to take responsibilities that for a high school boy is impossible to carry by not having the maturity, so that is what the life of superheroes is based on, a constant harassment of your personal life by certain people from the government or villains as well as having to give up a normal life, your relationships, you may have to move away from certain friendships and learn that really everything is based on a world where used as a shield. The series also touches on points such as the vanity that some superheroes are only out for fame, making money and sleeping with girls, as would be the case of Rex.

It also shows you, in the case of Evatomica, a clash of identities, knowing and wanting to discover who you are, what purposes you bring in life and what you are good for or what you can become good at, with the use of your powers. Back to Mark, the side he experiences I think is the hardest, as he has to live the constant harassment of government entities in his home as well as experience various tasks that would seem easy for a Viltrumite.

Recuerdan el mes que se hizo muy famoso con esta foto? Pues realmente es la parte cruel de la que está por venir en la vida del joven mark, dónde poco a poco se van atando los cabos de quién fué el verdadero responsable de la muerte de los guardianes del globo, de la caída de quién quizás ha un ícono para muchos y un ídolo e inspiración para otros "héroes". En un choque de conseguir un propósito en su vida, por mera casualidad, mark se encuentra con su padre quien luchaba con una bestia y se une, sin saber que ahí sería el fin de quién realmente el creyó, su padre, sería aquel tirano que acabo con todo el símbolo de la humanidad en ese momento y del responsable de una pronta invasión a su tierra.

Aquí digamos que, Mark entra en un estado de shock, y por su emociones e irá, se deja llevar, ya que su padre le confiesa que todo es una mentira para el o al menos eso nos hace creer, que su raza que dijo que alguna vez eran protectores de la galaxia, realmente son conquistadores y el había sido enviado a la tierra por ello, por lo que ese choque de verdades dolorosas hace que el chico pierda la noción y solo se debe llevar por la ira, que si, aún sin tener oportunidad contra su padre, no dejó que batallara bien y acabara en esta escena, haciendo ver qué, en este mundo, nunca terminas de saber quién es quien realmente y ni siquiera en tu propia familia puedes confiar.

En fin mis hivers, esto fue todo por esta vez, la verdad es que traté de hacerlo un poco resumido y sin tanto spoiler para que así también puedan verla ustedes y disfrutarla. Nos estamos leyendo muy pronto, y recuerden, el héroe no siempre resulta ser el buen.

Do you remember the month that became very famous with this photo? Well, it is really the cruel part of what is to come in the life of the young mark, where little by little they are tying the ends of who was really responsible for the death of the guardians of the globe, for the fall of who perhaps has become an icon for many and an idol and inspiration for other "heroes". In a clash to achieve a purpose in his life, by mere chance, Mark meets his father who was fighting with a beast and joins, not knowing that there would be the end of who he really believed, his father, would be that tyrant who ended with all the symbol of humanity at that time and responsible for an early invasion of his land.

Here let's say that, Mark enters in a state of shock, and by his emotions and will go, he gets carried away, as his father confesses that everything is a lie to him or at least that makes us believe, that his race that said they were once protectors of the galaxy, really are conquerors and he had been sent to earth for it, so that clash of painful truths makes the boy lose his mind and he just has to be carried away by anger, that yes, even without having a chance against his father, he didn't let him battle well and ended up in this scene, making us see that, in this world, you never end up knowing who is who really and not even in your own family you can trust.

Anyway my hivers, this was all for this time, the truth is that I tried to make it a bit summarized and without so many spoilers so you can also watch it and enjoy it. I'll be reading you soon, and remember, the hero is not always the good guy.

Me gustó mucho esta serie, es cruda y la trama es buena. Omni-man es un monstruo, sería terrible si un superhéroe así existiera. ¿Has visto The Boys? Si no lo has hecho, te la recomiendo; aunque no ha terminado, es tan cruda como esta y la profundidad de sus personajes es algo que te atrapa desde el principio y a medida que avanza la serie. Saludos.

Your description of this show is very accurate. It really tries to show the reality of a hero to some extent in animation form. I am a fan of animated shows but this one was so different that I could not just resist it. I like how they try to make us relate to the trauma of being a hero but I think they could do better. Nevertheless, the story is great. I am looking forward to the new season that is coming later this year.
