Be it the epic comic series, or its adaptation, Invincible has fans of all ages. The brilliant superhero tale and its powerful characters are household names for fans. What’s so special about the plotline is that the villain is as powerful as the hero, which makes the story intriguing. The first part of the series was released in 2021 and was much acclaimed by critics and viewers.
With time, fans have not just accepted the series but have also become accustomed to its characters. Any changes in the plotline or the characters might not be appreciated by everyone. Recently, when the renowned comic writer Robert Kirkman revealed changes in the plotline of the upcoming installment of the series, fans couldn’t take it well.
Invincible Season 2 witnesses a major change
Invincible Season 1 ended with a cliffhanger, making its viewers wonder about the fate of the protagonist. However, what has hooked the audience with its plotline is its powerful characters, as its writer, Robert Kirkman, has been very wise by making its antagonist as powerful as the protagonist, which makes the story intense and makes its viewers stick to their seats.
In Kirkman’s comics, the villains are given equal value, and their portrayal has been top-notch and well-appreciated by the audience. However, recently, it was revealed that there will be a major change in the series as the creator of Invincible has decided to introduce a new character. During an interview with Inverse, Kirkman shared that the series will witness a twist now as it explores the concept of the multiverse.
The second installment of Invincible will introduce a new villain called Angstrom Levy. Sticking to the concept of a powerful villain, the new antagonist possesses formidable powers. Referring to the new villain, the writer said,
“He’ll be a new villain that comes into the series. And if you’ve read the comics, you’re aware of who he is and what his deal is. He’s a villain that has access to multiple dimensions, and so it’s another one of those dang multiverse things.”
The character of Angstrom Levy is a powerful one, which can be a threat to the protagonist, Mark Grayson, a.k.a. Invincible. The new antagonist isn’t just powerful but also very intelligent, as he is a scientist who can travel between various dimensions, which allows him to explore the multiverse. His mission is to use the multiverse to his advantage.
It would be exciting to witness another intriguing plotline; however, not every Invincible fan is convinced by the new change.
Fans’ reaction to Invincible‘s new villain
The success of the first season of Invincible has built up the fans’ hopes; however, the recent revelations about the latest changes in the series have not really thrilled the fans.
The fans of the series are not yet ready for any kind of change, as the news about the change has created an uproar on the internet. The fans are disgusted by the fact that the arrival of any new character will hamper the plotline.
