Summary
Reviewers say 'Invincible' is acclaimed for mature themes, complex characters, and subverting superhero tropes. The series is celebrated for intense action, emotional depth, and standout voice acting by Steven Yeun and J.K. Simmons. However, some criticize inconsistent animation and less engaging side plots. Certain characters are deemed underdeveloped or annoying. The blend of gore and humor is both praised and faulted, with mixed reactions to its mature content. Overall, 'Invincible' is viewed as a bold, refreshing superhero series with notable flaws.
Featured reviews
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!
Stays true to the source material while changing small details around so it doesn't follow the comic scene by scene.
Nearly all character designs and animation are extremely well done and stays faithful to the comic book. Some of the minor characters have had their ethnicity changed so you may not recognise them at first but it won't matter to viewer's who have never read the comics.
The voice acting is excellent with a incredible cast which really brings the comic book to life.
The shocking scenes and gore are even more detailed and added too than the comic book was giving both fans of the comic and people who are new to the series a suspenseful, exhilarating and gut wrenching watch.
Simply a brilliant show to watch so far.

Invincible really increases the standards in animated tv or web series by showing good character development, emotion, great ton of action and pg-18 violence which is kinda cool. Best thing is, every episode is 40 minutes instead of 20 😬
I watched the first episode and after the ending i just had to binge watch the next two. It was just as mindblowing as when i first read the Omniman arc.
I don't know why people are so mad that there's gore in this show. I mean, it's not for kids, the story is mature and trust me, if there were superheroes and supervillains in real life, the gory deaths would be an everyday thing. I have read all the comic book series and for the people that thinks everything is predictable i just have to say that they're right... and they're totally wrong as well. Just keep watching.
The plot is well written, characters are credible, voice acting is good, animation is not perfect but not bad either. I'm getting hyped with every episode and i just can't wait to things that will come next. Mindblowing will be a recurring word as you watch this show.
