NO COMIC SPOILER ZONE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bfAVpuko5o

Based on the comic book which ran from 2003-2017 Invincible is an hour long animated action series on Amazon Prime. The series follows teenager Mark Grayson who is the son of the superhero Omni-Man (think mustache Superman) as he comes into his own powers and becomes a superhero. Just a head's up, the comic could be super violent and trailers definitely made it seem like it is following in the same vein. The show will be following new standard Amazon Prime release schedule starting with 3 episodes and moving to weekly.

(some of the) Cast:
Steven Yeun as Mark Grayson / Invincible
J. K. Simmons as Nolan Grayson / Omni-Man
Sandra Oh as Debbie Grayson
Mark Hamill as Art Rosebaum
Seth Rogen as Allen the Alien
Gillian Jacobs as Samantha Eve Wilkins / Atom Eve

Like the thread title/top post states I would like this thread to avoid comic spoilers.

Well guess they aren’t going to shy away from the gore

Yeah, full on exploding a guy's head was definitely not something I expected to see.

I didn't see it that way. It seems like he really did try and just got his rear end beat into a coma. I mean Cecil was perfectly happy to assume that some supervillains did it. Him being there just raises more questions. I doubt anyone would have even suspected him at all if he wasn't there.

Yeah, Red Rush punching Nolan actually tears his costume and visibly injures him, so it seems safe to assume that he was doing some real damage.

The first couple of episodes had some cheap animation parts. Like Mark flying in episode one had some bits where they were just jiggling a still image over the background.

Liking the adaptation so far but I gotta say that casting jason mantzoukas as Rex splode is just the absolute worst and most distracting thing. Just a terrible decision for so many reasons

I like the Zook but he just sounds weird as a teenager character.

Reminder, when I said no book spoilers I meant no book spoilers.

I haven’t seen Whiplash so this is maybe the best acting I’ve seen from JK Simmons



The best acting from JK Simmons is obviously Pigbaby from Infinity Train s4.
