Invincible Season 2 Part 2: Cecil Stedman Wants YOU for The GDA

Before Invincible returns next week for Season 2 Part 2, Cecil Stedman wants YOU to join his Global Defense Agency (GDA) - here's how!

With less than a week to go until the second part of the second season of Prime Video's animated series adaptation of Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker & Ryan Ottley's Invincible comes crashing onto our screens, Cecil Stedman (voiced by Walton Goggins), Director of the Global Defense Agency (GDA), has a question for you. Are you looking to make a difference in your life – and save the world while you're at it? Then, the GDA is exactly what you're looking for – and you can sign up by texting INVINCIBLE to +1 (231) 432-5646. In reality, it's a very cool marketing tool that Prime Video is running to preview what's to come. When we signed up, we were offered some images from the GDA headquarters (after the screenap of Stedman's recruitment drive) – here's a look:

And here's a look back at the teaser from GDA, looking to get potential new recruits signed up as quickly as possible:

In the following clip from last month's IGN Fan Fest 2024, Mark (Steven Yeun) finds himself at his lowest until Andressa (Rhea Seehorn) – Nolan's (J.K. Simmons) second wife & mother to Mark's half-brother – puts things into a perspective in a way that might just give Mark the hope he needs. Here's the sneak preview clip that was released during the online fan event:

Invincible: Kirkman on How Season Finale Will Top Midseason Finale

"The fourth episode, I think people are gonna be exhausted. So I'm happy about the break, which I think most people will be unhappy about, but that's fine. You need the time; you need to rest. But I think that each episode builds, so by the time you get to the fourth episode, you're like, 'How is this all happening? It's crazy.' Which is cool. There's a lot of people that I interact with that have only ever seen the first season and have never read the comics. I hear from people in that demographic a lot that are like, 'How are you gonna top the end of Season 1?' And then people that have read the comics laugh," shared Kirkman during an interview with Collider – but Kirkman doesn't want folks sleeping on the season finale, either.

"So yeah, we're getting to the bigger stuff. Cory [Walker], Ryan [Ottley], and I were working on the comic for 16 years, and we really tried to maintain a sense of escalation through the 144-issue run. And that's one of the things that we really painstakingly paid attention to. When I'm working with Dan Duncan and everybody on the show, making sure that sense of escalation is present, and we're able to add different things, and make the show denser, and trim some of the fat that we had off the comic. I'm really proud of that," Kirkman continued. "So as we get deeper into this, I mean, Season 2, Episode 4 is an insane, huge episode, but Season 2, Episode 8 tops it. And when you guys see [Season 3, Episode 8]? Whoo. [Laughs]."

Based on the groundbreaking comic book by Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker, and Ryan Ottley, the story revolves around 18-year-old Mark Grayson, who's just like every other guy his age—except his father is (or was) the most powerful superhero on the planet. Still reeling from Nolan's betrayal in Season 1, Mark struggles to rebuild his life as he faces a host of new threats, all while battling his greatest fear – that he might become his father without even knowing it.
