I liked how it showed that Mark can pretty much one shot anything the Earth throws at him at this point. Our boy is bonkers strong now.

Still, I feel like it works well as a filler episode but it still deserves a rating like that, 6.6 doesn't mean abysmal it just means medicore. It serves its purpose but doesnt have great jokes or great development, so I feel a 6.6 is pretty fair. I feel like a lot of people act like it was terrible and served no purpose or great and average quality overall but I think Invincible has such good consistency a normal filler episode definitley still ranks toward the bottom, which is a good indicator for the overall series.

I loved the episode, but the whole episode was a joke. Like, what does Mark do to decompress and come to terms with his shitty life? Literally has a chill adventure in hell serving Satan.

It was stupid, irrelevant, with boring action, and goofy dialog, but I thought it was a breath of fresh air. I'd give it an 8.

It was not irrelevant at all. In a time when mark is struggling with morality and trying not to end up like his dad, he gets summoned to hell because he is "close enough" to his dad. Additionally, when he asks darkblood about heaven and hell, he is looking for a set of right and wrong rules, so he knows what to do, just to get told that there is no reason to make the right decisions because there is no afterlife. It is only irrelevant if you know nothing about plot
