Melvin and Daniel talk about Invincible, the crazy popular and occasionally ultra-violent animated superhero show on Amazon Prime.

  • Introducing Invincible [7:41] 
  • Baseline, non-spoilery reasons why Melvin and Daniel found Invincible so compelling 
  • Invincible masterfully employs a brilliant hook to create pervasive suspense 
  • Open, total-spoiler reasons why Invincible is so compelling 
  • Each character and plotline are deeply rich and highly engaging 
  • Amber, Mark’s girlfriend, is written really well and doesn’t get the usual “hero-girlfriend” treatment 
  • Daniel, “…one of the best season finales of any show I’ve ever watched...” 
  • How Invincible causes us to ponder the value of humanity in spite of humanity 
  • A strong resolution with exciting implications for Season 2!
