Popcorn Culture - Review:  Invincible S1

No one thought this year's sleeper hit would be a cartoon on Amazon Prime, but here we are. Based on the Image Comics series by Robert Kirkman, Invincible is the story of Mark Grayson (Steven Yuen) finally coming into his superpowers. He's also the son of the most powerful superhero on the planet, Omni-Man (J.K. Simmons), and things are not as simple or as innocent as they seem. We review the ultra-violent first season of Invincible and discuss its deconstruction of the superhero genre, its star-studded cast, and our anticipation of what's coming next.
