“I couldn’t be more proud of the series Cory Walker, Ryan Ottley and I did together for over 15 years. All of them are based on Kirkman’s Skybound comics. The Invincible order gives Kirkman his fourth scripted series on the air, joining AMC’s The Walking Dead and spinoff Fear the Walking Dead as well as Cinemax’s exorcism drama Outcast. The pact reunited him with genre topper Yguado, who helped turn The Walking Dead series into a global phenomenon when the series launched day-and-date across the globe. Invincible is Kirkman’s first series under his overall deal with Amazon Studios. The AMC adaptation ranks as one of the most-watched scripted shows on all of television. Invincible was Kirkman’s second-longest running comic behind juggernaut The Walking Dead. We love his ambitious plan for the show and believe it will look like nothing else on television.” “In a world saturated with superhero fare, we trust Robert to subvert expectations while encapsulating a story filled with heart and adrenaline. “Robert has an uncanny talent to predict the zeitgeist, and we are incredibly excited to see him break boundaries in an animated one-hour format,” said Sharon Yguado, head of scripted genre programming at Amazon Studios.
