The visuals zoom in at a microscopic level to show her pulling the electrons from one molecule to another, a tiny change that has a huge impact. The story is at its best when it’s in discovery mode, like the psychedelic moment when Samantha first uses her powers to change the molecular composition of an atom, turning her textbook to glass. This could be an intentional way of emotionally distancing the audience from the parents, like Samantha, but it makes those relationships less interesting. The Grayson family dynamic is very well defined - we get a cute flashback of them at the end of the episode - but the Wilkins dynamic is more basic. Samantha’s father’s antagonism toward his daughter doesn’t get enough development, and understanding why he is so threatened by Samantha’s “weirdness” would give the domestic plot a stronger emotional foundation. They send her to a special school, and Samantha makes a friend across the street, but the upswing is reversed when she realizes what she can really do. Her ability to see the atomic structure of the world makes her zone out from the people around her, but eventually her parents learn that their daughter’s behavior signals great genius and preternatural understanding of chemical elements. The episode follows Samantha from early childhood to adolescence, a time that is largely defined by the alienation she feels due to her emerging superpowers. Elias Brandyworth (Stephen Root) was the scientist responsible, but he had a crisis of conscience and rescued the woman before she could give birth to Samantha. government, one of a small batch of superpowered children grown in a homeless woman’s womb. Samantha isn’t the birth daughter of Adam and Betsy Wilkins, but a genetically engineered creation of the U.S.

Written by Invincible co-creator and co-showrunner Robert Kirkman and Helen Leigh, a writer on Kirkman’s Outcast series for Cinemax, Invincible: Atom Eve is a very faithful adaptation of Atom Eve’s comic-book origin, elevated by the incredible action storytelling of the show’s animation team. In typical Invincible fashion, there is deep familial tragedy at the core of Samantha Eve Wilkins’s character, building on the show’s core theme of toxic parental expectations disintegrating the family unit - quite literally in the case of Samantha’s siblings.
If a few love triangles crop up along the way, then all the better.Just in time for the most atomic-pink weekend in entertainment history, Prime Video released a surprise special episode of Invincible for San Diego Comic-Con, revealing the origin of the show’s pink-clad matter manipulator, Atom Eve.

If The CW really is looking to bring DC's biggest heroes into a single TV universe (even outlandish ones like The Atom, or even Supergirl), then planning to spotlight their personalities first is a great sign. It's nice to see that the minds behind Arrow are still intent on making Ray Palmer a worthwhile character alongside the established cast - not simply relying on his superhero credentials. I think it's going to add a whole new element to the show that I think audiences will like, whether they dislike Ray getting into the middle of the Oliver/Felicity relationship or not." My character interacts with Felicity mostly in the episodes I've shot so far and it's just a lot of fun. I get to come on there and comedy in a pretty dark world. "It's a cool opportunity it's a cool show with a huge following.
And, quite possibly, inject some romantic competition where Felicity Smoak is concerned (as if Ollie and Barry Allen weren't enough of a distraction):
The show's producers have also teased that Palmer would one day take his interference with Oliver Queen's life from his office to the streets of Starling City, but hinted that his role would largely be used to lighten the mood.
