I saw someone make this claim and originally I wanted to disagree, to me it seems like a fairly honest take on the genre itself. Though thinking about it I can see where there is an argument, so I’d love to hear other people’s thoughts. Yay or nay?

    Definitely not deconstruction imo. More like admiration/love letter to Superheroes considering it parodies/reuse some common and/or iconic moments in Superhero comics whilst fitting it into the context of Invincible.

    The only parts I can see where the arguement potentially works is >!“being a hero is bullshit” and Nolan’s betrayal but considering the turn around of the latter, and the former being a family situation where Mark still expresses wanting to help people above all else by the end.!< I don’t see it.
