Invincible

Great voice cast and a very good story makes this series a must if you are a fan of the superhero genre . I know this is from a comic dated around 2003 but i never read it and it doesn't matter. You can enjoy this without any prior info; its still pretty darn good.

Maybe you will need to be a bit patient for the story to clearly develop at the end of the 1st episode. From that point on, it's a winner.

The story arc between mother, father and son is excellent. And further on some of the characters which you will encounter are just phenomenal; Machine head, Robot, Rexplode and Cecil are just a few. They are also voiced by an amazing selection of actors which will entertain you. Let alone the world building; one of the best in the superhero genre.

And yes...it's super woke, but so what? It didn't affect the main story line and the connection between the characters.

Just keep in mind that this is an adult show due to the violence.

9/10 for the great voice cast and good story. Give it a go.

INVINCIBLE S1 Review: For context, this review was made on my Insta (@komododragongamer) on June 8th, 2021

So heres my Review of (INVINCIBLE) S1 it's a really great satire show of a whole bunch of characters that are inspired from DC Comics, Marvel and Darkhorse comics and etc. And there are some things in which I am excited to see in the future seasons ( and planned live action movie) more of this review in the next slide.

Ok so most of the show is really great a lot of talented voice actors and actresses. For example theres a Giant Cat Villian and he is voiced by the Classic LionO VC from Thundercats and soooo many cameos.

My One negative with the show is Amber because I think in my opinion she was poorly written in the last episodes Aka she had no real goal just there really.

My favorites are the twins and Robot, JK Simmons is probably the best choice as a main character and Invincible reminds me of MCU Spider-Man but at least he grows a lot more in character development than MCU Spider-Man.

Overall, I'm pretty psyched to see the future of this show and a possible live-action movie in the works. 9/10; just give it more episodes and a higher budget.

(Present day me here I do plan to write on the current seasons in the future and that way you the viewer can be able to see how my critiquing has improved since 2021)

"Invincible" is everything modern superhero franchises wishes they were. It is a great subversion of what the audience has come to expect from the genre, while at the same time relishing in the tropes that people know from the world. If you are going to give the audience something different from what they expect, that different thing needs to be good or even better than what they were wanting in the first place. The first episode is a great example of this. They set up a world very familiar to other superhero shows. But then, after the credits start rolling, the show swerves to a new direction that is even better.

If you were into "The Boys" you will definitely be into this show, a realistic version of what superior beings would actually be like. Blood and gore check, great voice actors check, fantastic soundtrack check (recent episode included a track from the group Nine Inch Nails), great story check and dialogue that actually feels important and emotionally powerful . Only thing is that the animation could be better, but it's still great and some of the villains get repeated but it's following the comics so I can't really fault it for that. Omi-Man,Cecil, Mark and Allen the alien voice actors/characters carry this show!

I have no clue of the source material but happy they kept it animated. Not what I was expecting but epsidoe had me hooked!
