Another season of Prime Video’s “Invincible” is on the way.
“Invincible” creator Robert Kirkman made the Season 4 announcement at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday at Prime Video’s adult animation panel. He was joined by “Hazbin Hotel” creator Vivienne Medrano, “The Legend of Vox Machina” executive producer and star Travis Willingham and “Sausage Party: Foodtopia” co-creator Kyle Hunter for the panel.
During the panel, Kirkman revealed the new, blue-and-black costume for Steven Yeun’s Invincible coming in Season 3. In the comics, Mark Grayon, aka Invincible, enters a darker, more violent era in the middle issues of the superhero comic. The new costume, a stark shift from his yellow-and-blue spandex, is a fan-favorite from the comics.
“Invincible” wrapped up its two-part second season back in April, after premiering its first half last November. The superhero series was already renewed for a Season 3 after it first premiered back in 2021. Kirkman has said that work on Season 3 happened simultaneously with Season 2, and the wait between seasons won’t be as long as the gap between the first two.
“Everyone loves split seasons!” Kirkman jokingly told Variety after the Season 2 finale. “Thankfully, we worked on Season 2 and Season 3 concurrently. I guess, unfortunately, we’re too far along on Season 3 to learn anything from from Season 2, but I think we’re picking up some things on how best to adapt this show. We’re learning different things on the animation side that work and don’t work that will continue to improve the show. I’m very happy with the show. I am loving how it’s turning out. I feel very strongly that Season 2 is better than Season 1, Season 3 will be better than Season 2. If we’re fortunate enough to continue, I hope that we’ll be able to continue improving the show until the final season is just a perfect product that has no flaws in it whatsoever.”
Amazon’s Prime Video has been a leader in adult animated series, thanks to shows like Kirkman’s comic book series “Invincible,” Critical Role’s popular Dungeons and Dragons series “The Legend of Vox Machina,” “Hazbin Hotel,” which began as a web series before getting picked up by Prime Video,” and “Sausage Party: Foodtopia,” a spinoff of Seth Rogen’s crude, food-based movie.
“The Legend of Vox Machina” is preparing to release its third season this fall, with its “Mighty Nein” spinoff on the way, while “Hazbin Hotel” and “Sausage Party: Foodtopia” both debuted earlier this year.
