By the finale, the hype reached a fever pitch and the show did not disappoint.

The Invincible Season 3 finale shattered expectations by earning a 10/10 IMDb rating, tying it with legendary episodes like Breaking Bad's Ozymandias and surpassing Succession’s Connor’s Wedding.

The finale’s jaw-dropping climax featured a Walking Dead reunion, with Jeffrey Dean Morgan voicing the brutal villain Conquest, adding meta-depth for longtime fans. Critics and viewers alike hailed the episode as a masterclass in animated storytelling, with its visceral action and emotional stakes leaving audiences speechless.

Season 3 delved into Mark’s struggle to balance heroism with personal life, weaving complex themes of identity and sacrifice.
