Inverse - 💥 ‘Invincible’ Finally Grows Up

The Inverse Interview
How the Most Anticipated Superhero Show of 2023 Defied Expectations

“Think, Mark, think!”

Three words, delivered with roaring fury by J.K. Simmons, perfectly encapsulate the climactic finale of Invincible Season 1, a bloody battle between father and son over the revelation that they aren’t Earth’s super-powered protectors, but its alien colonizers. But what nobody expected was that the same scene from Amazon’s animated series would go on to spark a million memes.

“Nothing makes me older than the memes,” Invincible creator Robert Kirkman tells Inverse. “It’s not like we did it on purpose. We’re certainly not sitting around going, ‘This will be a good meme.’”

Now, on the eve of the show’s long-awaited return, Kirkman can’t help but wonder if the show will find a way to go viral again. “I’m wondering if there will be no memes from Season 2 or just as many. I can’t conceive of what will be turned into memes, which again, just makes me feel super old.”

NASA’s Juno Spots Ingredients for Life on Jupiter’s Largest Moon

A mess of salt and organic chemicals splattered across the ice on Ganymede could be a hint that its hidden ocean contains the right stuff for life.

NASA’s Juno mission recently revealed that the surface of Jupiter’s largest moon is dotted with salts and organic chemicals (i.e. hydrogen and carbon — not always related to life but definitely a prerequisite). Planetary scientist Federico Tosi, of Italy’s National Institute for Astrophysics, and his colleagues say those patches of minerals could be evidence of water mingling with rock on the seafloor and mixing all sorts of nutrients into the alien moon’s ocean. And that could be a very good sign for habitability.
