Invincible - Season 3- Episode 3 <HD — 480p>
Mark fights a new teleporting villain named Multi-Paul (a distant relative of Dupli-Kate). The fight choreography is solid, and Multi-Paul’s power set is creatively used, but he’s clearly a distraction from the real conflict. The episode might have worked better without any physical antagonist, letting Mark’s internal battle be the only threat.

The B-plot follows Rex trying to be a better person after his near-death in season two. His awkward attempts to apologize to Shrinking Rae and Kate are genuinely touching, and his banter with Immortal provides some much-needed levity. The show has done a remarkable job turning Rex from a one-note jerk into a flawed but trying hero.
If you came for gore and guest voices, you’ll be disappointed. If you came for character-driven superhero drama that respects trauma as something you can’t punch your way through, this is a standout. The episode ends on a predictable “someone is
