Ahead of the show’s release, the first reviews for the new season have been revealed. While the hit animated series, based on the graphic novels byThe Walking Deadcreator, Robert Kirkman,likes to test the limits of Grayson’s superhero name,the reviews for Season 3 prove the show could, well and truly, be cue title card!
The first reviews forInvincible’s third season have been released online, and the show is making a perfect comeback, according to the critics.InvincibleSeason 3 has earned a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes at the time of writing.More reviews are expected to be released in the coming days, ahead of the show’s premiere on Feb. 6, but the new season already looks promising. Let’s start withMovieWeb’s own Managing Editor, Bobby Anhalt,whodescribedInvincibleas “still TV’s best animated superhero series"in his review, awarding Season 3 a score of 4/5. He continued:
“Season 2 remained strong and even challenged the idea of superhero fatigue, andin its third season, ‘Invincible’continues to be a modern-day Saturday morning cartoon for adults who grew up watching Saturday morning cartoons like ‘Batman: The Animated Series.'”
That sentiment was shared by Reuben Baron ofLooper, who said that fans of the first two seasons will adore Season 3, continuing, “and if you’re an adult who likes superheroes and animation, why wouldn’t you likeInvincible?” Logan Moore ofComcBookalso revealed that Season 3 trades some of the last season’s excessive action for slower, more character-focused storytelling. They wrote:
“While this season might not feature as many bombastic set pieces as in previous seasons, it trades those moments out for deeper character development.”

Simmons) wrestles with his own mortality as a hero.
