THE STORY OF INVINCIBLE

Mark Grayson is teenage superhero Invincible. He is a normal high school senior with a normal part-time job and otherwise normal life, except his father Nolan is the superhero Omni-Man, the most powerful superhero on the planet. At the age of 17, Mark begins to display superpowers, which come from his father being a member of the Viltrumite race.

At least, that’s how it starts. Over the course of 144 issues, Invincible covers love, loss, family, roommates, college, intergalactic war, multiple dimensions, and way, way more. It does all this while flipping the conventions of the superhero epic on its head.

Created by Robert Kirkman and Cory Walker, Invincible #1 debuted to critical acclaim on January 22, 2003. Soon after, they were joined by artist and contributing creator Ryan Ottley. Throughout its 15-year run, Invincible not only continued for a historic 144 issues but also spawned multiple spin-off series’ and even an inter-company crossover with a certain friendly neighborhood superhero.

In 2021, the Invincible animated series arrived on Amazon Prime Video and quickly became one of the most popular new streaming series of the year.

Invincible

Tech Jacket is a story about family, friendships, first love, and fighting aliens across the galaxy. When otherwise unremarkable teenager Zack Thompson stumbles upon a crashed alien ship and bonds with a technologically advanced alien battlesuit, he becomes Tech Jacket, the most powerful weapon in the universe.

Tech Jacket blends relatable humor with interplanetary action and adventure. The series follows Zack trying to protect those closest to him – whether it’s from the local mob or from galaxy-destroying alien hordes – and explores themes of responsibility, morality, personal growth, and finding out who you are when extraordinary circumstances are thrust upon you.

Takeshi Maruyama (Spaghetti Code Love) directs. Robert Kirkman, David Alpert, Rick Jacobs, and Glenn Geller exec produce for Skybound. Koji Ishi and Takeshi Shimokawa exec for Fuji.

This drama is a collaboration between Fuji TV and Skybound Entertainment (the company behind the western series "The Walking Dead"). Based on a science-fiction graphic novel by Shawn Kittelsen and Eric Zawadzki, it explores a post-pandemic world where gene therapy has saved humanity from disease only to give birth to Variants- people with powers so unique, the government denies their human rights. The Variants, who are persecuted by the public, live isolated in a village and are constantly monitored by an organization called VCU (Variant Crime Unit). Kanichiro plays the role of Umin, a Variant who is also a spy for the VCU. Miura plays the role of Ema, an influencer member of the unit "L."
