Surprises are often the spice of life, yet not all are welcome with open arms. Take the unanticipated release of TV show trailers, for instance, which can cut both ways—a thrill for fans yet a potential headache for studios. As each piece of leaked footage slides into the public domain before its time, it begs the question: does it add fuel to the fire of anticipation or pour cold water on meticulously prepared marketing plans?

The animated superhero series “Invincible” will return for its third season on Amazon Prime Video in early 2025 without taking a mid-season break. The streaming service announced on [Date] that the upcoming season will premiere with three episodes on February 6th and continue with one new episode each week, wrapping up the eight-episode run without an interruption.
This update directly addresses criticism from some fans of the show’s second season. That season was split into two halves of four episodes each, separated by a four-month gap between them. The new continuous release format echoes the successful model of the first season. The announcement teaser poked fun at the scheduling issues by depicting a character telling the show’s protagonist Mark Grayson he took “a four-month vacation right in the middle of things” last season.
Series creator Robert Kirkman has acknowledged that animation production timelines were a significant challenge leading to the split second season.

No one knows how to make your mediocre job performance sting like a curmudgeonly co-worker at their wit’s end. They seem to know when you’re at your lowest point, then twist the knife to make you feel worse about not having the spoons to deal with tasks and unfinished projects. In Prime Video‘s Invincible Season 3 teaser trailer, Cecil (Walton Goggins) reads Mark (Steven Yeun) the riot act for botching a clean-up job for a group of criminal scum before reprimanding him for a laundry list of questions about why he’s slacking off. Like I said, no one gives you guff like a pissed-off co-worker.
Thankfully, Invincible Season 3 debuts on February 6, 2025, and there’s no mid-season break to give fans a reason to keyboard warrior their way through a period of impatience. Do you know how long it takes to produce an animated series? Exactly.

When the first season of “Invincible” debuted on Prime Video, it became a huge hit for the streamer. Everyone suddenly got excited about the new superhero series.

Update: Pretty soon after news of this leak broke, Amazon Prime video released the teaser for Invincible season 3 in question, and everything was on point: new episodes start airing on Thursday, February 6, and there will be no mid-season break.
Original Article: The first couple seasons of Invincible, Amazon Prime Video's adaptation of Robert Kirkman's superhero comic book series, have been great: earnest and subversive, hyper-violent and densely layered, they've quickly earned a passionate fan following.
The problem has been the wait times. Over two years passed between the end of season 1 and the airing of season 2, and then we only got four episodes of season 2 before the show went on hiatus for another three+ months before we got to see the other four. Kirkman has gone on record as saying that the long waits have "sucked"; since the second and third seasons were made back to back, the hope...

There was a significant gap (over two years) between the first and second seasons of Prime Video's Invincible animated series, but we had been assured that the wait for season 3 wouldn't be as long, and that's now been confirmed thanks to a leaked teaser.
Invincible will return to our screens on February 6, 2025 - and there will be no pesky mid-season break!
We have no idea how long this promo will stay up (and wouldn't be surprised if an official version was released fairly soon), but it finds a now 19-year-old Mark Grayson (Steven Yeun) meeting with Cecil Stedman (Walton Goggins) in a café in a similar set-up to the season 2 teaser with Allen the Alien.
Cecil is not happy (for a change) with Mark taking a lengthy break from crime-fighting, and tells the young hero that he needs more training if he hopes to face the oncoming Viltrumite threat. It's a fun teaser,...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe threw some clear shade at its top competitors by casting Henry Cavill into its franchise. Playing a variant of Wolverine in Deadpool & Wolverine, Henry Cavill might not yet be done with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

However, since the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be continuing with Hugh Jackman as its Wolverine, Henry Cavill might need to find a different niche for himself in the MCU. Given that Cavill’s involvement was clearly made to throw shade on DC, there might be one character that the actor could play in the MCU after all.

Comic Book creator Rob Liefeld is returning to Youngblood with Image Comics. The plan is to create new Youngblood media and merchandise, kicking off with a brand-new title written and illustrated by Liefeld, set to launch from Image Comics next year.
Liefeld will reteam with Scott Mitchell Rosenberg, who first launched Image Comics in April 1992.
Rosenberg is CEO of Platinum Studios Inc., which manages Youngblood for the property’s owner, Rip Media Inc.
Youngblood followed Liefeld’s break-out success at Marvel, where he created and established Deadpool, Cable, and X-Force as top-selling characters. Youngblood became the first independent non-Marvel, non-dc Comic title to chart at #1 and sell over 1M copies. The original Youngblood miniseries sold over 25M copies worldwide, and its publication history spans over 100 issues with featured contributions throughout its run from comic talents such as Robert Kirkman Alan Moore, and Mark Millar.
Says Liefeld, “It’s so great that I can run into the comfort of characters that I created, that launched a movement. They carry such history. I love Youngblood so much. These characters are my absolute passion.”
Rosenberg adds, “Rob and I are a fantastic team, and I’m as excited now for Youngblood’s relaunch as I was in 1992 for its initial launch. The team’s awesome characters have not only been in their own Youngblood comics, but also appeared in more than 100 million comic publications worldwide, including crossovers with Marvel and other Image comics. I’m excited to bring them to audiences old and new with their original creator, Rob Liefeld.”
“As our company’s very first comic, Youngblood set the course not just for Image Comics, but for creator-owned comics, so we couldn’t be more thrilled that Rob is returning to his signature creation,” said Image Comics Publisher and Chief Creative Officer Eric Stephenson. “Rob’s vision for these characters and this concept is what originally attracted me to Image Comics way back in the 1990s, so it’s especially exciting that the series that started it all is finally coming home!”
Liefeld and Rosenberg promise more details in the weeks ahead, but initial plans include a Youngblood Vault Edition representing high resolution scans of the original art from the first Youngblood series in a deluxe oversized hardcover, as well as a Facsimile Edition of Youngblood #1 to mark the title’s 33rd anniversary in April 2025, both to be published by Image Comics.
Platinum Studios, Inc. is a comic book-based entertainment company. Productions include the Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig movie Cowboys & Aliens.
Liefeld will reteam with Scott Mitchell Rosenberg, who first launched Image Comics in April 1992.
Rosenberg is CEO of Platinum Studios Inc., which manages Youngblood for the property’s owner, Rip Media Inc.
Youngblood followed Liefeld’s break-out success at Marvel, where he created and established Deadpool, Cable, and X-Force as top-selling characters. Youngblood became the first independent non-Marvel, non-dc Comic title to chart at #1 and sell over 1M copies. The original Youngblood miniseries sold over 25M copies worldwide, and its publication history spans over 100 issues with featured contributions throughout its run from comic talents such as Robert Kirkman Alan Moore, and Mark Millar.
Says Liefeld, “It’s so great that I can run into the comfort of characters that I created, that launched a movement. They carry such history. I love Youngblood so much. These characters are my absolute passion.”
Rosenberg adds, “Rob and I are a fantastic team, and I’m as excited now for Youngblood’s relaunch as I was in 1992 for its initial launch. The team’s awesome characters have not only been in their own Youngblood comics, but also appeared in more than 100 million comic publications worldwide, including crossovers with Marvel and other Image comics. I’m excited to bring them to audiences old and new with their original creator, Rob Liefeld.”

In last week's match-up of the Bam Smack Pow comic book tournament, I mentioned that popularity hasn’t always determined the winners. The genius bracket may have proven me wrong. However, who’s to say that my opinion is right or wrong? We’ve seen some victories from people who shouldn’t have won. So, maybe it isn’t all about who is more well-known. Take a look at last week's winners and decide for yourself.

It is difficult to imagine Invincible without J.K. Simmons’ Omni-Man. Perhaps one of the breakout performances of the show, Simmons has managed to cement himself as one of modern Hollywood’s greatest tragic characters, right up there with the likes of Darth Vader and Thanos.

It is because of this celebrated performance that it is odd to imagine that the actor turned down the role initially, not finding himself to be fit for the role of the Viltrumite. Speaking with Collider, he revealed what went through his mind when he eventually read the script, talking about how it might not have worked out for him after all.

There have been a slew of cartoons to come out on Cartoon Network and other networks that featured animated shows that were killed for no apparent reason. Despite smooth productions, great storylines, and even sizable viewership, shows like Young Justice, Generator Rex, ThunderCats, and Green Lantern: The Animated Series just did not have what it takes to keep them on air.

While these shows had a lot of good storylines and great viewership behind them, action cartoons, especially the likes of Generator Rex and Ben 10, actually need one pillar to work out more than anything else: merchandise. The products that sustained these shows were usually toys, the sales of which would determine whether the investment behind the shows that were supposed to sell them was even worth it.
These shows usually focused on introducing as many toy figures as possible Young Justice || Credit: WB...

X-Men ’97 took the world by storm with its debut, smashing together a slew of X-Men stories and delivering a first season that fans can’t help but watch again and again. However, the supposed engineer behind the show, Beau DeMayo, has found himself fired from the job, and there also seems to be some restructuring going on the part of Disney to make the show less in line with what DeMayo had in mind.

Perhaps owing to this, a report has pegged the premiere date of the sophomore season of the show in 2026, which indicates that Marvel fans will be without any sort of proper X-Men content for the better part of a year and a half.

Snowpiercer, the show where Daveed Diggs plays a freedom fighter aboard a train rocketing through a dystopian wasteland, literally just wrapped up a few days ago, which means Diggs is newly unemployed.

Entertainment Weekly has revealed that The Boys season 5 has tapped Daveed Diggs for a mystery role in the R-Rated Prime Video series.
The actor is best known for starring in Hamilton (which was already a hit but became a global phenomenon thanks to Disney+) and counts the likes of Snowpiercer, The Little Mermaid, and Velvet Buzzsaw among his many film and television roles.
This isn't the first time he's circled a superhero project as it's widely believed he was a frontrunner to play Ben Grimm/The Thing in Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps. That role ultimately went to Ebon Moss-Bachrach.
Diggs has also lent his voice to Amazon's Invincible as Theo, a member of a therapy group who lost their loved ones to superheroes.

The Mortal Kombat franchise has a history of gruesome finishing moves, but the upcoming Khaos Reigns expansion is taking the brutality to a whole new level. The new expansion features the return of the Animalities. Fighters can transform into monstrous creatures to finish off their opponents.

Omni-Man’s animality was recently revealed and he transforms into the giant kaiju, Hail Mary, from the Invincible series. This terrifying form draws directly from a pivotal fight in Season 1, where Hail Mary nearly kills Omni-Man, making the animality a terrifying homage to one of the most intense battles from the animated series.
Omni Man Looks Spectacular in Mortal Kombat 1
Animalities first appeared in Mortal Kombat 3 and allowed fighters to transform into spirit animals to perform finishing moves. The feature has since been absent from the franchise for nearly 20 years.

Marvel Studios is currently working on a variety of projects, some of which are rumored and some of which are confirmed. While some are brand-new ideas, others have been in the works for a while—even before the SAG-AFTRA strike brought the sector to a complete halt. But, as you might assume, a long wait is never a good thing, and there is a risk that these projects could end up in developmental hell.
The Blade reboot, which will reportedly star Mahershala Ali in the lead role, and Armor Wars, which has undergone multiple production iterations—from a movie to a series to a movie again—are currently two of Marvel’s most troublesome projects. And we are going to talk about the latter here.

While X-Men '97 was a hot favourite to win the Emmy for "Outstanding Animated Program" yesterday evening, the Marvel Animation series was beaten by Netflix's Blue Eye Samurai.
That relatively obscure adult animation series also soundly defeated The Simpsons, Bob's Burgers, and Scavengers Reign.
While some of Blue Eye Samurai's fanbase might take issue with it being described as "obscure," it certainly didn't receive the same level of mainstream attention as Marvel Studios' X-Men: The Animated Series revival. Still, that never matters when it comes to awards and the show was clearly deemed superior.
Heading into the first night of the 76th Emmys, it had already picked up wins for "Character Design," "Storyboard," and "Production Design," so this probably shouldn't come as a huge surprise.
Blue Eye Samurai premiered last November and, the next month, was renewed for a second season which is currently expected to debut in...

The 2024 Creative Arts Emmys has handed out its first night of awards.
The annual two-day event, which takes place the weekend before the Primetime Emmys, is currently in the middle of handing out 99 awards to mostly below-the-line categories. Awards announced on Saturday include honors for variety programming, nonfiction and reality.
Saturday’s big winners included Jim Henson Idea Man, Saturday Night Live, Billy Joel: The 100th — Live at Madison Square Garden, Welcome to Wrexham and The 96th Oscars, which each took home multiple trophies. (Jimmy Kimmel, who won as an EP for The Oscars, joked that the win does not change his mind about not wanting to host again this year). Angela Bassett also landed her first Emmy win (after nine nominations) for narrating Nat Geo docuseries Queens, and The Traitors‘ Alan Cumming broke RuPaul’s record-setting winning streak for reality or competition program host.

After rumors did the rounds online, we got official word that Steven Yeun would no longer appear in Marvel Studios' Thunderbolts* movie back in January, with Top Gun: Maverick and Salem's Lot actor Lewis Pullman signing on as his replace net shortly after.
Though the character Yeun was going to play still hasn't been confirmed, The Walking Dead and Invincible creator Kirkman came right out and said: "My good friend Steven Yeun is playing the Sentry in a movie" some time later.
“Yeah, he called me, he went in for a costume fitting. I hope I’m not… I don’t think this is a spoiler or anything that will get anybody in trouble. I don’t know, maybe. We’ll see. I don’t care. I don’t work for Marvel. What are they going to do to me? He called me and he said, 'I just came back...

Thanks to Prime Video's animated adaptation, Invincible is one of the most popular superhero properties in the world right now. Everyone wants a slice. For instance, Skybound Entertainment is in early development of a triple-a video game, and of course, a live-action movie has long been in the works at Universal.
Announced in 2017, the live-action movie seems no closer to becoming a reality than it was back then. Almost seven years after it was announced, Robert Kirkman has finally weighed in on the project. The good news? It's still very much happening! The bad news? Invincible on the big screen remains many years away. In terms of a timeline, we don't know, but Kirkman recently joked to The Direct that "it may take so long that Timothée Chalamet can play Omni-Man."
Speaking more candidly on the matter, Kirkman explained that the movie isn't being scrapped. The team is just biding...

A live-action adaptation of Robert Kirkman’s Invincible was announced four years before the animated series even premiered on Prime Video, and still, there’s been little movement on the movie. Is it even still happening? According to Kirkman, apparently so. They’re just taking their time with it.
“It’s still in development,” Kirkman said at San Diego Comic-Con (via The Direct). “We’re still working with Universal. You know, the show is going so well. I think the movie absolutely has to be perfect. And so it’s taking a lot of time, like getting the pieces aligned and getting everything to work so that we can come out and make it as good as it can possibly be. So it’s been in development for a long time, and it’s probably going to be in development for a while longer.“

Invincible gained a notorious reputation for the delays faced by the animated show’s second season. Based on the Robert Kirkman comic of the same name, the show’s second season premiered almost two years after its debut season. Meanwhile, a live-action film based on the comic, which has been stuck in development is facing similar struggles.

During a recent interview, Kirkman spoke about the delays in getting the live-action film off the ground. The disappointing update certainly does not inspire hope of the movie materializing anytime soon. However, the reasons for the delay in a live-action Invicincble adaptation might just make fans go easy on Marvel’s Blade, which seems to be stuck in developmental hell.
