Season 2 picks up sometime after the events of the end of season 1. Mark Grayson also known as Invincible is in self-doubt and working to help out, without really being seen. Still ashamed of his father, Omni-Man and his Viltrumite heritage. Global Defense Agency Director Cecil Stedman eventually convinces Invincible to help out the GDA, and he reluctantly agrees. While this is going on, Mark finally graduates high school, maintains a relationship with his girlfriend, and gets ready to go off to college. Mark biggest challenge now is how to balance all of this.
I really loved season 1, so I was so happy it was picked up for another season. Season 2 has the same blend of action, humor, and suspense that made season 1 so enjoyable.
Steven Yeun returns voicing Mark and he does an amazing job at it. You can really hear the different inflections in his voice. A little teen angst. A little wonderment. Seriously top notch.
The rest of the voice cast returns and they all do a great job. And you have Ben Schawrtz joining the cast as Shapesmith.
The scripts are solid and able to tell a great story in about 45 minutes. It’s a great adaptation with some changes here and there. If you read the comic, when the story is supposed to go one way, it goes a different way, but it doesn’t divert that much from the original story. The great thing about Invincible it’s great for non-comic readers as well.
The animation is nice a smooth. Great flow to it. It almost looks like Invincible co-creator Cory Walker’s artwork. Very well done.
If you loved season 1 of Invincible, then are seriously going to enjoy season 2. If you haven’t seen season 1, then go watch it before season 2 premiers on Prime Video on November 3rd.
