If, like us here at FTN Towers, you’re pacing the floors waiting to see season 2 of Invincible, you’ll be happy to know that once it’s here and it is then over, there’s likely much, much more to come.
Based on the long-running comic series, there’s a lot of story still to tell – seriously, check out the Invincible books, that’s a lot of reading! – the series will have to go on for a long time to cover all the ground, story and chaos and it seems that creator Robert Kirkman has been giving that some serious thought too.
“I’m trying not to pin it down to a number, because it is somewhat of a moving target,” Kirkman says in a new interview.
“I think in the seven-to-eight-season range seems like it would be enough. But there could be some things we move through a little faster, some things we expand. If we’re fortunate enough to go for a good long time, I think that would be enough to cover the entire comic.”
Wait… is Spider-man in Invincible Season 2? Em, the evidence seems to say ‘yes’!
Interestingly, he also teased that, if you’re a big fan of the Image Comics series but worried that you already know all the story, then there’s a reason for you to keep tuning in too, as Kirkman says he’s got come ideas to expand on the story we already know and love: “There are some things along the way that didn’t get into the comic that I’d like to do.
“I think it’d be cool to have some episodes here and there that are completely original. So that’s part of the plan moving forward.”
This is very cool news if you’re just looking for a cool animated universe to get lost in, whether you know the story already or not, it looks like there’s going to be a lot for you to enjoy.
so, are you excited for several more years (hopefully) of Invincible? I wanna know your thoughts, gang!

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
