'This is an extremely complicated show,' - Robert Kirkman: Invincible season 2 to premiere on Amazon Prime Video

It's finally Invincible time! Yes, get ready superhero series fanatics, because the long-awaited second season of "Invincible" has officially been announced to premiere the first four episodes on November 3rd, on Amazon's Prime Video. As revealed at the buzzworthy San Diego Comic-Con, along with a teaser that sent fans into a flurry of excitement, the remaining episodes will debut in early 2024.

During Comic-Con, Kirkman gave us a sneak peek into Season 2, which steps directly out of where season 1 left off, revealing that it tracks the saga of a new villain, Angstrom Levy, brought to life by none other than the Sterling K. Brown. With a stellar addition of over two dozen new voice actors, including Tatiana Maslany and Cliff Curtis, this season promises even more action.

The wait for season 2 felt like a marathon for fans, stretching out over two years since the first season streamed on Prime Video. “This is an extremely complicated show,” Kirkman acknowledged. “It’s an hour-long animated series. There are so many characters and scenes. We really had to wrap our heads around how this production was going to be managed.” But the humorous comic creator is already looking forward to when fans start asking about season 3, saying, “I can’t wait until people are like, 'When is Season 3?’”

Indeed, the challenges behind the scenes were many – ranging from phasing out CG animation completely for Season 2 to handling the intricate plotline amidst the pandemic. Yet, Kirkman reassured fans at the Comic-Con that the production team's efforts in making Season 2 and 3 have resulted in a smooth production process that will prevent further extensive breaks between seasons.

The intrigue continues with the series protagonist, Mark Grayson (Yeun), navigating myriad threats and grappling with the fear that he might unreflectingly morph into his betraying father.

For those who haven't caught up yet, season one premiered back in March 2021 and was warmly received by audiences, extending its legacy to an immediate renewal for seasons 2 and 3 on the same day as the season 1 finale in April.
