Prime Video heard you, Invincible fans – the upcoming third season will not have a mid-season break, unlike last time.
The announcement came in a cheeky teaser released Thursday by Prime Video, in which Mark (Steven Yeun) and Cecil (Walton Goggins) discuss the dramatic events that concluded Season 2 (namely Mark getting his ass kicked by a new Viltrumite in the city) and Mark’s preparation (or is it Yeun’s?) for their next chapter of defending Earth.
Amazon also released a promotional image featuring Mark’s new blue suit:
After the first season of Invincible ended in April 2021, fans had to wait more than two years for the show to return – first with a killer special on Atom Eve in July 2023, and then with four episodes of the second season in November. But the season’s momentum was halted, splitting the season into two four-episode parts that aired in different years – the final four episodes ran in March and April 2024.
Polygon spoke with Robert Kirkman, creator of both the comic and the show, about the second season. He acknowledged that fans “didn’t like” the mid-season split, but said it was caused by a “production necessity.” It seems that everything has been smoothed out, and the whole Invincible season 3 will air without a lengthy hiatus. Although it sounds like Mark could use a break after the beating he took last season.
The third season of Invincible will premiere on Prime Video on February 6, 2025.
