Check out the trailer right here.
What Is Mark Facing In Invincible Season 2?
Well, Omni-Man is gone, for starters. Robert Kirkman sat down with IGN to talk about how that will present some challenges for Invincible in Season 2. There’s some wounds that need to be attended to in a real way. Hopefully, Mark’s support system is ready for a real shock.
“I think we kind of hit the ground running with a lot of chaos,” Kirkman said. “Mark and Debbie are dealing with a huge betrayal of Nolan and his absence on the planet is something that’s affecting them deeply. Mark is in this place where he was on this trajectory to become this superhero, and everything seemed to be going really well. Now, he’s been shaken to his core.”
“Aside from the betrayal, he’s also left with being the new last line of defense on Earth,” Kirkman added. “He’s the guy that’s the only one strong enough to actually replace Nolan, so he’s kind of thrust further into this superhero world that he may not quite be prepared for, and there’s no end of conflict that’s boiling on the planet that is coming at him nonstop.”
What Is Invincible About?
Skybound says, “Based on the groundbreaking comic book by Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker, and Ryan Ottley, the story revolves around 18-year-old Mark Grayson, who’s just like every other guy his age—except his father is (or was) the most powerful superhero on the planet. Still reeling from Nolan’s betrayal in Season One, Mark struggles to rebuild his life as he faces a host of new threats, all while battling his greatest fear – that he might become his father without even knowing it.
