I remember first reading the comic in high school and excited to see Invincible finally adapted on screen. The animation is incredible and the voice actors are top notch. It goes all out with the violence and really pulls you in with the characters. I can’t wait to see what they do with the storyline as there are some changes from comics but it works for the better here.
If you like The Boys then you’ll really dig Invincible. Amazon Video has hit gold again in their search for quality comic book media ripe for adaptation to television. Robert Kirkman, of The Walking Dead fame, is on-board along with both Ryan Ottley & Corey Walker who are responsible for the comic artwork. It’s uncommon to see the original creators of a book team-up later to tell their story through a new medium and as an animated the show, Invincible should closely follow the comics beat for beat. Invincible subverts and pokes fun at the stereotypical tropes found in superhero comics and offers a unique look at the mundanities and real world consequences of superhumans living in an otherwise normal world.
Kirkman seems to have fully taken advantage of the resources afforded to him by Amazon and stocked the cast with recognizable and quality voice talent. The comic ran from 2003 to 2018, so there is 15 years worth of fantastic source material available for adaptation to this series. “Invinci-heads” all over have been excited for this project since it was first rumored some 5 years ago and, personally, I’m very excited to see Invincible re-told in a medium where it can be appreciated by a new audience. The Walking Dead was the book that made me start reading comics, but Invincible is the book that made me fall in love and seek out other comics. Don’t let the animation fool you into thinking this is a show for children (as is evident from the first episode); you can expect adult themes, profanity, and gratuitous gore in all of its glory.
On April 29, 2021, Invincible creator Robert Kirkman announced that Season Two AND Season Three have been confirmed.
Whoa!
1st episode started out all “the usual” and frankly pretty lame. I almost didn’t watch the whole thing. I’m glad I did because at the last minute it turned all “Wholly shit, WTF just happened!?!”.
Totally unexpected!
So far every episode has a good dose of wtf-ery. Heavy on the graphic violence.
Has a lot in common with The Boys.
Ok. Now i see what the fuss was all about with INVINCIBLE. I love it.
Great show, can’t wait for the next seasons to drop.
the cast looks dope, i wanna see who nicole byer is voicing
That’s not a cartoon for the kids, nope… I like it, my only problem is the head on omni-man - he looks like J. Jonah Jameson on steroids.
Funny as he’s voiced by J. K. Simmons.
The storytelling in this series is top-notch. The dialogue, the action, the characterization, everything is so well done. Star-studded cast delivers exceptional voice-acting performances in a gripping coming-of-age sci-fi superhero tale told in mature, realistic themes with fantastic animation that pays homage to its Golden Age.
this is great- starts out like typical superheroes cartoon -then gets graphic as straight to favs
Cannot wait much longer
Wow, all-star cast.
I’ll give it a shot.
