We can be the good guys, or we can be the guys who save the world.

Invincible S3 — 3.5/5

There's an adage in comics that Peter Parker can't win for losing. "With great power must also come great responsibility" drives his character, but 60 years of stories are driven by the simple story trick of "every time something goes right, something goes wrong." I love it. And I don't think Spider-Man owns that trick; as seen on this show!! The one we're talking about right now!! Mark Grayson is Spider-Man vis-a-vis Superman, a normal guy with immense power who just needs to pay his rent and go out with girls, all while the world falls down around him. It's a great premise, and I could watch it play out for 60+ years.
