It’s been a long time coming, but Invincible Season 2 has finally arrived. Well, part of it.
After the brilliantly bloody first season, fans have been eagerly awaiting another installment of the animated adaptation of Robert Kirkman’s comics. Starting Nov. 3, you can watch the first of four episodes (part one), released weekly. Season 2 picks up with rookie superhero Mark Grayson (aka Invincible) reeling in the wake of his father Nolan’s (aka Omni-Man’s) betrayal. Mark focuses on rebuilding his life — and finishing high school — in the face of more training, new threats, and inevitably, more bloodshed. Considering the comic spanned from January 2003 to February 2018 with nearly 150 issues, there’s plenty of source material to draw from for Season 2 and beyond.
Here’s a glimpse at what we’re in for in Invincible Season 2:
When is Invincible Season 2 coming out?
Invincible seasons 2 and 3 were greenlit back in April 2021, but delays largely due to COVID shutdowns caused a bit of a struggle in getting the next installments out to fans. It’s been nearly three years since the first season debuted and the time has finally come for Season 2 (well, part of it). Audiences can tune into Invincible Season 2 starting on Friday, Nov. 3. Its first four episodes will be released weekly until Friday, Dec. 1. The other four episodes will arrive in early 2024, but the exact date has not been announced.
What streaming service is Invincible on?
Sorry, Netflix users. Invincible is an Amazon Prime Video original series, thus it can only be watched on Amazon’s streaming service. If you’re already an Amazon Prime subscriber, you’re good to go — just sign into your account, navigate to Prime Video and the first episode will be waiting for you starting Nov. 3. If not, we’ve got you covered with the best ways to save money on a subscription.
Can I get Amazon Prime Video for free?
The million-dollar question we all want the answer to: how can you watch Invincible Season 2 for free? I’m happy to tell you that there is a way. But unfortunately, you can only take advantage of it if you haven’t been a Prime user in over a year (or ever). Otherwise, you can score a discounted subscription if you’re a student (or still have access to a .edu email address) or simply subscribe to Prime Video only (not a full Prime subscription) to save some money. We’ve unraveled all the details for you below.
Best for newbies: Amazon Prime Video free trial
Opens in a new window
In a time where free trials are disappearing left and right, it’s refreshing to know that Amazon still offers a 30-day trial of its Prime membership to new and returning users. If you’ve never subscribed to Prime in the past or you canceled or paused your membership over a year ago, you can take advantage of the free month of service. You’ll get all of the Prime perks a paid member gets for those 30 days — including access to Prime Video to watch Invincible seasons 1 and 2 — despite not paying a cent. Plus, you can take advantage of the benefits of a Prime membership for Amazon’s Black Friday sales. Just be sure to cancel your trial before the 30 days are up if you want to avoid charges.
Best for students: Amazon Prime Student

Students with an active .edu email address can score the mother of all deals on Prime by subscribing to an Amazon Prime Student account. You’ll get your first six months completely free, which gives you access to not only Prime Video, but also plenty of other goodies like free food delivery through GrubHub+, a free three-month trial of Calm, discounted Amazon Music and Kindle subscriptions, as well as the usual Prime perks. After your six free months, it’ll only cost you $69/year (reg. $139/year) — that’s 50% in savings — so long as you keep your student status. Cancel any time. The best part about the six-month trial is that you’ll be able to watch parts 1 and 2 of Invincible Season 2 for free.
Best for everyone else: Amazon Prime Video only

What most people probably don’t realize is that you can subscribe to Amazon Prime Video without subscribing to Amazon Prime. For those who aren’t eligible for the free trial, this is your best bet for saving some money and watching Invincible Season 2. Rather than paying $14.99/month for Prime, you can sign up for a month of Prime Video only for just $8.99. That saves you $6 per month, which definitely adds up. Plus, you can cancel at any time with no commitment. This won’t necessarily save you money, but it’ll keep you from wasting it once the season is over.
