There are so many superhero shows and movies out there these days, you’d figure there’s no way for a new one to break through…and yet it happens! In 2021, Amazon had a hit with Invincible, its animated adaptation of the comic book by Robert Kirkman, best known as the creator of The Walking Dead. With its combination of pure-hearted optimism and brutal ultra-violence, Invincible carved out a space for itself in a crowded market.
Fans have been waiting for season 2 now for a while, but there’s finally light at the end of the tunnel: Prime Video has released a funny little teaser for season 2 featuring lead character Mark Grayson, aka Invincible, hanging with Allen the Alien, who wants to know when new episodes are coming as much as the rest of us:
And there you have it! Invincible season 2 will come out in “late 2023,” although note that the title card says “more or less.” Hopefully it doesn’t slip into 2024.
Invincible season 2 gets a release date (sort of)!
When last we left Mark Grayson (Steven Yeun), he just had a monster fight with his father Omni-Man (JK Simmons), who happens to be the most powerful superhero in the world. And when I say “fight,” I mean that Omni-Man beat his son to a brutal bloody pulp before leaving the planet after he couldn’t make himself strike the final blow. Omni-Man is actually part of a brutal alien race bent on dominating the galaxy. This family has problems.
Invincible has had a long run in comics, so there’s a lot of story left to adapt. Hopefully Amazon will keep new seasons coming at something of a faster clip moving forward.
