Fans of the Prime Video superhero series, Invincible, express their disappointment and outrage towards the recently aired mid-season finale, labeling it as disgusting Is this backlash a sign that the highly anticipated Invincible movie may face obstacles? Stay tuned for updates
Season 2 of Invincible has recently come to a close, leaving Prime Video superhero series fans disappointed. The season started on November 3, as a follow-up to the one-off special Invincible: Atom Eve released in July. These episodes marked the end of a two-year absence of new Invincible content.
During a recent interview, co-showrunner Robert Kirkman reassured fans of Invincible that future seasons will be developed more quickly. However, fans are still facing a long wait for the remaining episodes of Season 2, which are not scheduled to be released until early 2024.
Invincible fans call mid-season finale “disgusting”
The mid-season finale of Invincible has left some fans feeling overwhelmed, as seen in the early reactions on X. “They’re actually disgusting for this,” posted one X user in reference to Invincible Season 2 halting at the halfway point. “This is ridiculous,” added another.
Many Invincible fans expressed disappointment with the relatively short, eight-episode run of Invincible Season 2 in the mid-season finale. Some argued that the season should not have been split into two parts and pointed to the two-year gap after Season 1 as proof that Season 2 should have been completed by now.
On the other hand, not all fans were against the mid-season finale of Invincible Season 2. Some defended the decision to split the season in two, acknowledging the challenges of the animation process and showing support for showrunner Simon Racioppa and Kirkman.
Is the Invincible movie still happening?
One user commented, "Each episode is almost an hour long and animation takes a significant amount of time, especially with the material they are preparing to adapt." Another user agreed, stating, "It's as if producing high-quality animation requires time." A third user added, "I don't mind because it's the holiday season, let the animators spend time with their families."
Fans of Invincible can look forward to new episodes of the Prime Video series arriving before the highly anticipated live-action movie, which has been in development since at least 2017 with no release date in sight. Showrunner Kirkman confirmed in October 2023 that production is still ongoing, with Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg currently working on the script for the eventual theatrical release of the Invincible movie.

Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z netizen, I have mixed feelings about the mid-season finale of Invincible. On one hand, I am disappointed that the season was split into two parts, leaving us with a long wait for the remaining episodes. On the other hand, I understand the challenges of the animation process and appreciate the hard work that goes into creating each episode.
Overall, I think the mid-season finale was a bit of a let down, but I am still excited for the future of the series. I hope that the remaining episodes will be worth the wait and that the live-action movie will be a success.
