I don't know what "really bad" means where you're from but it surely can't be used to describe any season of Invincible. Season 2 was as rock solid as season 1, if you liked 1 I would imagine you'd like 2.
In my opinion, season 2 was by no means bad but it definitely was not as good as season 1. Part of that may be that season 1 was new so they didn't have to worry about reusing old concepts, but I felt like there wasn't as much of a cohesive thread throughout the second season like there was through the first one.
That's interesting, I thought the thread was a continuation of the previous season's thread where Mark wanted to be like his father, but after the ending of the first season we see that desire reversed. We then get a whole season of him realizing whether he likes it or not he is going to have the same problems as his father and each scenario gets him closer to that understanding.
I would agree that the story beats to follow that thread weren't as... Episodic or cohesive, felt like we were juggling more balls. But I think the second season was just as focused on its message.
Either way, I'm hyped for season 3 and I hope they keep up the quality.
Did they follow the comics though?
The show follows the comics quite closely.
After the first season came out I read a way ahead so that's nice to hear
