The Invincible season 3 finale was not only a climactic moment in the Invincible War, but it was also planting the foundation for big things to come in season 4 and beyond. While fans of the comics certainly spotted a few tips of the cap to big things to come, one moment after the credits was something that never happened in the comics, and in an interview with Variety Invincible creator Robert Kirkman teased a meeting with the devil and a confrontation with the one and only Bruce Campbell.
To begin with, at the end of season 3, a scene unfolds post-credits showing the return of Detective Damien Darkblood (voice by Clancy Brown). It’s been since season 1 that we last saw Darkblood, but he appears from the depths of hell accompanied by a devil whose voice is provided by Campbell. They talk about a potent earth dweller they aim to capture, a plot point likely to be continued in season 4.
In season 1 Darkblood was banished to hell, but in the comics that never happened. Instead, Kirkman kept him around so that he could get to a planned story down the road that would bring a trip to hell into the mix, but it never ended up happening. Now Kirkman is finally getting a chance to bring that into the story thanks to the show.
“In the comics, he was never sent to hell. He was a great character that we loved from the first season. Clancy Brown’s portrayal of him was spot-on and so terrific. We always wanted to figure out a way to get Damian Darkblood back into the show, and then — gosh, do I want to spoil this? There’s a storyline from the comic that I never got around to doing,” Kirkman said.
“Every superhero story has some chapter where they go to hell and they fight the devil. It happens in DC and Marvel comics. It’s a big deal. I never got around to doing anything like that in ‘Invincible.’ I kept getting sidetracked and there was never a good time,” Kirkman said. “So it’s entirely possible that we may be doing something like that in the show, and that scene at the end of that episode is setting that up. Oh my God, and we got to work with Bruce Campbell. It’s the best.”
Speaking as a fan, I can’t wait to delve into the character played by Campbell – the enigmatic “demon”. When asked if this character is none other than Old Scratch himself, the devil, Kirkman cleverly danced around the question. He hinted that it could indeed be the devil, but left us guessing. As he put it, “Perhaps it’s the devil. Perhaps not. We’ll find out together. I might have given away too much already.
Invincible season 3 is now available to stream on Prime Video. Season 4 has no release date yet, but it is expected to release much sooner than it took season 3 to follow season 2.
