Invincible handles consequences pretty well.

One example: At one point Atom Eve uses her powers to turn an empty lot into a playground. But it turns out

spoilerthe lot was empty because the ground was unstable. So the playground collapses and injures several people.

Yea, Invincible is better than a lot in at least approaching the topic, though I didn't include it because the Global Defence Agency Cecil directs fixes things on a supernatural level. They magically fix up all sorts of things and magically make convincing cover stories, like the house blowing up like a freaking nuke as just a gas leak and the like.

Still nice that they're covering the topic, at least. It's so, SO much worse in the shows that just ignore it. Invincible does a good "meet in the middle": It's not really any big plot point of the show, but they also don't ignore the problems.
