New Invincible Episode!
The latest episode of Invincible, released last Wednesday, shifts focus from nonstop action to emotional fallout after Mark’s brutal fight with Conquest. Titled “You Look Horrible,” the episode explores recovery, trauma, and the growing weight of Mark’s responsibilities. While lighter on major battles, it keeps tension high and deepens character development.

Draft Registration Becomes Automatic
By December 2026, registration for Selective Service, or the draft, will be changed from self-registration to automatic registration. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, signed by President Trump on December 18, 2025, amends The Military Selective Service Act, stating “Except as otherwise provided in this title, every male citizen of the United States, and every other male person residing in the United States, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, shall be automatically registered under this Act by the Director of the Selective Service System.” This means that American men will no longer have to register for Selective Service within 30 days of turning 18 years old.
