We’re solely per week away till the Invincible Season 2 arrives on Prime Video. Keep your eyes peeled for our press protection and assessment subsequent week. In the meantime, now’s a very good a time as any for a rewatch. Something you’ll instantly discover in the very first episode is young Mark Grayson sporting a peculiar Canada shirt. It’s one thing that has perplexed followers with theories abounding such because it being a reference to the involvement of assorted Canadian creatives and the animation studio being situated in Canada. Some have even questioned if it’s a sign that Invincible is ready in Canada. As it seems, the rationalization is even easier than that.
This week, Screen Junkies launched an Honest Trailer response video that includes Invincible creator Robert Kirkman. Around the 1:40 mark, Kirkman lastly dishes on the secret behind young Mark Grayson’s Canada shirt. Apparently, throughout a visit to Toronto Kirkman’s son noticed that precise shirt in a present store and located it hilarious. For over two years, Kirkman’s son wore nothing however “Canada” shirts. When it got here time to design young Mark Grayson for the animated sequence, Invincible co-creator and artist Cory Walker was impressed to make use of that favourite shirt of Kirkman’s son.
So sorry to burst the bubble of all those that assumed this was a tribute or nod to the Canadian heritage of actress Sandra Oh who voices Debbie Grayson on the present. Kirkman additionally notes that govt producer and co-showrunner Simon Racioppa can also be Canadian and gave him “crap” for the longest time about his pronunciation of the phrase “sorry.” I assume the actual query is whether or not or not that Canada shirt shall be seen once more whether or not worn by Mark or some other character in future episodes.
