The Invincible Franchise Tracker covers the complete animated series on Amazon Prime Video, based on Robert Kirkman's Image Comics run. That means 33 entries: 32 episodes across 2 seasons and 1 special. The series is actively expanding — Season 3 began airing in 2025 — so the tracker stays current as new episodes release.
Invincible stands out among superhero animated series for treating the genre seriously as an adult drama. Based on Kirkman's 144-issue comic run (he also created The Walking Dead), the show doesn't shy from the consequences of superhuman violence. The first-episode finale twist set the tone for everything that followed and became one of the most-discussed moments in recent animated television.
Invincible Watch Order: Season Guide
Invincible is a straightforward watch in episode order. There's no expanded media to integrate — the tracker covers the animated series and specials only.
- Season 1 (8 episodes, 2021): The complete first season is available on Amazon Prime Video. Watch in episode order. Do not look up spoilers — the series is built on narrative surprises that land harder the less you know going in.
- Season 2 (8 episodes, 2023–24): Continues directly from Season 1. The second season was released in two batches, which the tracker notes.
- Specials: The tracker includes any short specials or supplementary animated content released alongside the main series.
- The comics: The Image Comics run (144 issues, 2003–2018) tells the full story the animated series is adapting. The show follows the comics reasonably closely in broad strokes. If you want to see where the story is going, the comics are available to read.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is Invincible based on a comic?
- Yes. Invincible is based on Robert Kirkman's Image Comics series, published from 2003 to 2018. Kirkman also created The Walking Dead. The 144-issue run is fully complete, so the animated series has a definitive ending to adapt toward.
- How many seasons of Invincible are there?
- As of 2025, there are 2 complete seasons plus an ongoing Season 3. Season 1 (2021) and Season 2 (2023–24) are fully available on Amazon Prime Video. The series has been renewed and is actively in production.
- Is Invincible suitable for children?
- No. Despite being animated, Invincible is rated for mature audiences. It contains graphic violence significantly more explicit than standard superhero content. The show was designed to subvert the assumption that animated superheroes are family entertainment.
- Should I read the Invincible comics before watching?
- Not necessary, but the comics are an excellent companion. If you're enjoying the show, the full 144-issue run is available and tells the complete story. There are also numerous crossover comics and spin-offs in the same universe if you want more after the main run.
- Is Invincible in the same universe as The Boys?
- No. Both are Amazon Prime Video series featuring mature-themed superheroes, but they are separate properties with no connection. Invincible is based on Robert Kirkman's comics; The Boys is based on Garth Ennis's DC/Wildstorm comic series.
