Rewind: Invincible — Part One

In this first half of a two‑part deep dive, Tony revisits the explosive beginnings of Invincible, the groundbreaking adult animated superhero series created by Robert Kirkman for Amazon Prime Video. Based on the Image Comics series he co‑created with Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley, Invincible redefined what superhero storytelling could be—violent, vulnerable, and unafraid to interrogate legacy, identity, and the cost of power. This episode brings together three of the creative forces who shaped the show’s emotional core: Steven Yeun (Mark Grayson / Invincible), J.K. Simmons (Nolan Grayson / Omni‑Man), and Robert Kirkman (Creator / Executive Producer). Steven Yeun reflects on what drew him to Mark: a teenager caught between expectation and self‑discovery.  J.K. Simmons dives into the layered psychology of Nolan Grayson, On What initially attracted him to the role Robert Kirkman breaks down the creative decisions on crafting heroes who feel distinct from their comic‑book counterparts SAVE 17% ON PLUS TO GET THIS EPISODE COMMERICIAL FREE
