Invincible, Vol. 22: Reboot?

The storyline took a fresh direction with this reboot, making me wonder how much was planned from the start or evolved later. What do you think led to that creative choice?

Some parts moved quickly while others slowed down unexpectedly. Was that intentional to build tension or just the story's natural rhythm?

The visuals felt darker and more intense—did the artist aim to reflect the upheaval in Invincible's world, or was it a stylistic choice?
