After a propulsive three-part premiere, Invincible’s third season takes a small step back with “You Were My Hero.” It’s far from a bad episode, but it’s shackled by some of the series’ most irksome tendencies: its occasional inability to balance its dueling narratives,

While Invincible season 3 has so far centred primarily around Mark’s (Steven Yeun) evolving dynamic with Atom Eve (Gillian Jacobs), his half-brother Oliver (Christian Convery) and the fallout with Cecil (Walton Goggins), the closing moments of episode four reminded us of the much larger intergalactic threat at hand.

Back on Earth, Mark and Eve remain in bed when Debbie (Sandra Oh) knocks on the door. She asks why the door was locked, and Mark tells her it’s because he’s not dressed. Eve laughs into the bedsheets, and Mark thinks they need their own place.

Invincible just revealed the biggest secret of the series so far in the war against Viltrum, which may have turned a corner.

Outside of the main cinematic universe, the Invincible show is airing for those with an Amazon Prime subscription. I've been really enjoying Season 3, but one complaint I had about the second season still hasn't been fixed just yet.
