Great joke but I feel it’d work better in a show with generally good animation. Cause like we get all this without the particularly special fight scenes.

Lampshading like that doesn't work when it takes 2.5 years inbetween seasons and the quality is still so suspect most of the time.

Legend of Korra had much better animation, many fight/action scenes and well animated characters/backgrounds/etc - and 4 seasons 13 episodes apiece got done in almost the same time it toook for Invincible to go from S1 to S2.

Look it up. First season started airing april 2012, 4th season ended airing december 2014. And that was Nickelodeon, not the massive corpo that's Amazon.

I'd tell whoever wrote that to piss off, don't blame this on 'animation is soooo hard' when it was done by choice to not have enough money for production to be done faster. Because it can get done faster and better.

Nickelodeon has oodles more experience with producing animation than Amazon does. Amazon only started actually making animation on their own very recently, most stuff otherwise is just things they paid some companies for the rights to say they had a hand in it.

It doesn't matter since Nick didn't produce Korra to which I compared the animation quality and production speed - Korra was produced by South Korean and Japanese(for S2) studios, while Invincible is produced by Kirkman's studio that's doing poor and slow work.

Amazon was just footing the bill, and is even in a better place since Invincible already has a fully fleshed out plot from beginning to end and storyboards so the production should be faster. All they have to do is adapt the issues into episodes and change some bits if necessary.
