If there’s a superhero series that breaks all the rules and succeeds by subverting the genre, it’s Invincible. I mean, sorry, The Boys. The animated show on Amazon Prime Video delighted everyone with a sublime first season, in which it managed to turn everything we thought about heroes upside down and filled the screens with blood. But what will we see in the second season?
So far, we’ve only had a small glimpse of what the second season of Invincible will be like, but we already know it will premiere on November 3rd, so speculation has begun about what we’ll see in it. The series is based on Robert Kirkman‘s comic, so it has some guidelines to follow, but the creator himself warns that it will be much bigger than what we’ve seen so far.
The series will expand much more… even beyond Earth
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Kirkman talked about how Mark Grayson’s story will continue and, most importantly, what we will see beyond the main events of the series. Because, let’s be honest, the ending of the first season was perfect for closure.
“I think Season 1 of Invincible is a clear representation of what you’ll get from this series,” he clarified. “But overall, Season 2 will feel much bigger than Season 1. The overarching story of Invincible that continues from season to season is about the growth and change that Mark goes through as he transitions from being a teenager into adulthood… and possibly even into old age. So, in Season 2, we’ll see him mature and grow a bit.”
Once again, we will follow the protagonist in his growth, which he has been almost forced to undergo. But in the meantime, what more will we receive from one of Amazon Prime Video’s most anticipated shows?
“Overall, Season 2 represents an opening up of the universe, an expansion of this world. There were hints of things that are happening in Season 1, and now we’ll get to see those things. The Coalition of Planets was mentioned in Season 1, and it’s something we’ll see in Season 2. And there are bigger things on Earth. There are different factions, different villains, different things happening,” Kirkman explained.
