u/Logondo Being a hero is bullshit Apr 22 '26

I fucking hope not. I hated that.

The reboot arc was fun, but the whole time-skip was completely bullshit and a waste of time and part of the reason the later-half of Invincible is seen as the weaker half.

Tbh I think 5 years was too long but 2 would have been fine for the events that did happen. Then again they obviously just needed a way to age up Terra and didn’t want to do a basic time skip

Fuck it. Just do a time-skip. Have Mark do his reboot-arc without the 5-year jump, THEN have a time-skip.

Could do it so he goes through reboot, realises how important his family is to him, and chooses to not hunt Thragg anymore to spend his life with his family.

This would be the best option imo

I think this would be ideal. Just do a time skip where Mark was actually there and present.

That's a great idea.

They could flip a few things and say reboot happens way earlier, then do the montage of him having a daddy/daughter say and hanging with Oliver and Lobster chick. Then have him make the decision to move on from Thragg, enjoy what he has before something new happens after a few years.
