‘Invincible’ Season 2 Is Better and Bloodier Than Ever

Invincible swooped in like a revelation. In its blistering and blood-soaked first season, the Amazon series (an adaptation of comics by The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman) turned superhero conventions upside down with its harrowing tale of fathers, sons, and the secrets that tear them apart. While, on the surface, Invincible presented itself as a colorful, grown-up homage to Saturday morning cartoons, in its heart, it was an Aeschylus tragedy dressed in spandex.

Now, as superhero fatigue becomes more pervasive, Invincible returns, and it’s as thoughtful, gory, and hilarious as ever. Invincible again centers on teen superhero Invincible/Mark Grayson (an engaging Steven Yeun in voice-over). Set only months after the Season 1 finale where the powerful Omni-Man (J.K. Simmons) revealed his true nature as the harbinger of a superior alien race – and beat his own son to an inch of his life — Mark and his mother Debbie (Sandra Oh) are left picking up the pieces.

The 2023 Prius Is the Most Important Car That Nobody Is Talking About

While you were sleeping, the Toyota Prius grew up.

It became, firstly, attractive — even sleek — shedding its ugly-duckling M.O. No, it didn’t suddenly become an EV; it’s still a hybrid, but with a ridiculous 57 mpg and a damn cheap $27,450 price tag, it’s one of the smartest, most affordable ways you can reduce your carbon footprint.

If you’re questioning that first sentence, I get why. For a quarter century, the Prius was a virtue-signaling king, right down to that mandatory “Coexist” bumper sticker. No more.
