Invincible has become a fan-favorite series for the Image Comics/Skybound title and the adapted animated series on Amazon Prime. With 144 issues spanning over 15 years, reading it is no easy undertaking, though it’s one that I’ve readily done. It was created by Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker, and Ryan Ottley. The series may seem like a …
I’ll be honest, I often have a hard time rooting for the love interests in superhero media. So many of them have bland personalities and feel like empty plot points… I’m looking at you, MJ (not MCU MJ, though, she’s great).

While these are some of the most prominent examples, crime leaders on TV are a dime a dozen. If you want to make your fictional crime lord stand out, he …

Invincible thrives on parody. From the Star Trek: New Generation crew analog to ripoffs of the Justice League, no one is safe from Robert Kirkman’s satirical hands.

Titan is one of the more intriguing characters in Amazon Prime Video’s Invincible, and an example of what makes the show stand out. There are so many layers to him, and despite being a minor character, he’s got incredible depth. I was shocked at his final scene in season 1 of Invincible, but that’s diving …
With so many super-powered characters in Invincible, it’s easy to overlook the puny powerless humans. Unless it’s Batman or Iron Man, why would I care? Worse, if the person doesn’t run around wearing spandex and beating people up, why should I give them the time of day? Well, let me tell you: if you ever …
I’m not usually into cartoon shows, but Invincible was definitely an exception. I love that it’s targeted at adults, and delves into some intense plots. Superheroes are probably my favorite genre of media, so I’m always keen to try out any shows or movies that feature them. Mark Grayson’s alter-ego is the titular character Invincible, and …
I’ll start this Battle Beast Invincible guide with a seemingly unrelated note – my love for U2 – but I swear it will all make sense. When I first heard U2’s I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For, I became enchanted. Its haunting lyrics about experiencing all the world has to offer while still …

I’ve written so many Invincible articles for this site I should be getting an award by this point. Still, there’s plenty more I want to say about the franchise. Reading the main run’s 144 issues, plus all spin-offs, wasn’t enough to quench my Invincible thirst – especially because season two is a few months away. …
