Forget Loki; Invincible is the best superhero show you’re not watching right now

From movies to television shows, the service has become a bonafide competitor in the industry, thanks to a healthy and remarkably diverse library. The best shows on Amazon Prime Video include critical darlings like The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, pop culture phenomenons like The Boys, and acclaimed underrated gems like Upload. However, I would argue that Prime Video’s strongest offering is the animated superhero show Invincible, returning for its second season today.

A world of gods and monsters Watching Invincible Season 2 reminded me a lot of another animated show that I love: the brilliant and messy Young Justice. Developed by Greg Weisman and Brandon Vietti, Young Justice also follows a group of teenagers from the main corners of the DC Universe. Like Young Justice, Invincible is massive in scope, for better and worse.

But Invincible understands its genre and delivers more than enough action set pieces and immediate revelations to keep things moving. It’s a delicate, incredibly challenging balance, and the fact that it can pull it off and make it seem so effortless is a restatement of its sheer genius. Season 2 of Invincible is exceptionally mature, not because of the violence, but because it understands the crushing weight of feeling any emotion as an adult. Following a stomach-churning start, the show moves to an extended sequence set to the tune of Radiohead’s Karma Police, which perfectly sets the stage for what’s coming. From then, it becomes an exercise in escalation, taking its characters -and its audience – through the wide specter of emotions.
