to do us like that before going on a mid season break is child abuse.

No, Mark just wedged Invincible into that sentence because of some unknown force

Oh no. Is that happening? Was this the last episode before a long break?

Edit: are you [INVINCIBLE] fucking kidding me?

remaining 4 eps coming some time in 2024. Normally that wouldn’t bother me but the show is so good and the amount of time that elapsed between seasons was more than enough for an 8 eps slate

u/inosinateVR Nov 24 '23

Yeah I mean I get it because animated shows take an absurdly long time on top of everything going on in Hollywood right now so I’m used to waiting but this one hurts.

Particularly because I thought we already did the waiting, I’d managed to put it out of my mind for so long until the new season popped up and I was like holy shit here we go

u/Machizzy Nov 24 '23

This show truly is like an addiction. Been clean for so long I thought I could handle it but now that I’ve had 4 weeks of Invincible in my vain I’m right back dude…i fully relapsed

Amazon getting people hooked on invicible before january when they turn on the ads.

u/Lemiate Nov 24 '23

i will watch the ads if i have to this show is too good

u/Initial-Ad8009 Omni-Man Nov 25 '23

Wtf really I thought it would be a week or two, we have to wait months now. Oh well. I know everything that happens I binge read the whole comic. There are def some tweaks to the original but overall it has stayed pretty true to the source

u/MARATXXX Nov 26 '23

These episodes are twice as long as typical animated shows though. These are essentially 16 episode seasons

u/Captain_MasonM Nov 24 '23

There’s a mid season break?

u/No_Cloud7020 Nov 24 '23

wait stop... theres a mid season break???

u/Have_a_drink_or_20 Nov 24 '23

Excuse me?

u/Machizzy Nov 24 '23

TO DO US LIKE THAT BEFORE GOING ON A MID SEASON BREAK IS CHILD ABUSE.

7

u/Slowmobius_Time Nov 24 '23

Tbf they have us blue balls like 5 times in the first episode so the trend has already been bucked

2

u/Chrysocyon Nov 24 '23

So how long is it to the next ep?

2

u/Ill_Gur4585 Nov 26 '23

I agree. Leaving us on that cliff hanger only to wait till "early 2024" is so helpful bro.

u/wimpymist Nov 27 '23

I can't believe breaking down seasons to this short is so common now lol

1

u/CobaltTS Nov 24 '23

crap i forgot about that

whens it supposed to continue

1

u/NotGayGangstasDotCom Nov 24 '23

Wait it’s the mid season break already? What the fuck

1

u/Amathyst7564 Nov 24 '23

Wait what? So there won't be an episode next week? :,(

21

u/TheDapperDolphin Nov 24 '23

They’ve been messing with the trend this season. I like it.

u/Peacesquad Cecil Stedman Nov 26 '23

Same hahah

u/TerraSollus Nov 24 '23 edited Nov 24 '23

They’ve been breaking the trend the entire season and I love them for that. Episode 1 had so many scenes were a character would pause to say [INVINCIBLE] and we’d be like “HERE IT COMES!” And then it never did hahahaha

u/robertrobertsonson Nov 24 '23

Except episode two where Principal Winslow gives his speech

4

u/DuckyQawps Nov 24 '23

Lmao I was like they’re definitely not gonna keep it up

u/AndreskXurenejaud Nov 26 '23

It's all part of the plan.

u/Reylo-Wanwalker Nov 26 '23

Time to panic because, sometimes things are the way they are for a good fucking reason.

u/Sylverpepper Nov 26 '23

I love invincible and this episode !
