Invincible: A Lesson for Your Next Life (2023)
Season 2, Episode 1
7/10
A bit of a slow start If I'm being honest.

Warning: Spoilers
This episode works both as a catch-up/review of the events of last season and also sets up some stuff for the future. I enjoyed most of the stuff having to do with Mark and how he has been recovering. This episode also introduces a new character called Angstrom, and that's where my issues begin. For one I feel like introducing a multiverse brings up a lot of issues (unlimited universes means unlimited solutions/cures/weapons/etc.), and while they try to explain why Angstrom can't just use the multiverse to get like a Omniman killer or something, it feels flimsy at best. Also A lot of exposition dumping happens throughout the Angstrom plot which is interesting but also kinda forced. I think the Guardians of the Globe stuff was kind of brief. They reintroduce immortal as leader of the team and demote robot who is adjusting to the new body. Again not much on that front but will probably get explored in the future. So again, while I did like this episode, it mostly felt like a reintroduction into the universe, while also setting up some of what's to come, rather than an actual story.
