Title: Invincible should stop paying for names and start paying for frames
Post by: Redaktion on April 10, 2026, 10:38:16

Also of note: Titan has already long since been recast from Mahershala Ali.

Not sure why people are surprised by this as the source comic itself is poorly drawn relative to top shelf Marvel and DC titles.

I mean they don't even respect the source material with the gender and race swaps. Of course they wouldn't respect animation as a medium and try to court mainstream Hollywood.
