The Walking Dead Creator Robert Kirkman has adapted another one of his comic books to TV format. Kirkman’s comic book Invincible just released its animated adaptation on Amazon Prime Video, with the first three episodes airing on March 26 and the rest of the first season releasing weekly. Invincible follows Mark Grayson, a teenage superhero discovering his powers with the help of his superhero father, Omni-Man.
Many fans may have been unaware of the comic book before the TV show adaptation, but now many fans are rushing to see the show and read the comics. Since Invincible has been an instant hit with fans and Amazon Prime users, Kirkman reveals he has more plans for the title.
During an AMA on Reddit, Kirkman responded to a fan who admitted they had never heard of Invincible, but is now watching the show and wants a video game adaptation. Kirkman answered with a simple, “TRYING!” However, since Kirkman has enjoyed a success with his involvement in The Walking Dead Telltale series, it can be assumed that Kirkman is serious about the response and may actually make an Invincible video game happen.
Kirkman does have a lot on his plate currently. The writer is not only involved with the Invincible TV adaptation, but is also collaborating with Striking Distance on The Callisto Protocol, working on the final season of The Walking Dead on AMC, and is planning more spin-offs for The Walking Dead when the final season winds down. However, Kirkman may be able to fit in making a video game adaptation of Invincible, especially since The Walking Dead has been able to successfully branch out into different mediums.
Kirkman is also the owner and founder of Skybound Games, which stepped in and finished the last two episodes of The Walking Dead: The Final Season when Telltale Games shut down. Skybound Games could be at the center of a video game adaptation of Invincible, especially since the company was created to develop games based on the IPs owned by Skybound Entertainment.
The Invincible animated TV show boasts a star-studded cast. Not only do former members of The Walking Dead series make up the original team of heroes known as The Guardians of the Globe, but former Walking Dead actor Steven Yeun plays the main character Mark Grayson. JK Simmons and Sandra Oh also round out the main cast as Grayson’s parents. While the show continues the first season, fans can possibly look forward to a video game adaptation of Invincible.
Invincible is out now exclusively on Amazon Prime Video
