TheRetreater Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Someone has to be reading this out there. I just got ish 24 (i guess they box-pulled it from someone since they were out of it the week it came out) and I love it as much as ever. I started reading it around ish nineteen and ended up going back and buying all the previous trades. I recommend this to everyone. It is a fresh superhero tale that doesn't read like a superhero tale. And it is by far the most well organized comic i've evah seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGodamnBatman Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 I just picked up the first trade of this because Robert Kirkman is more addictive than crack. I thought it was awesome, can't wait to get the next one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 I almost grabbed the hardcover volume yesterday, but wasn't sure I wanted to drop $35 on a comic I've never read before. Is it worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGodamnBatman Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Yeah it definately is. The intro in the trade I got by Kurt Busiek describes it best as put the book down and never read it or you will get sucked into the void that is Robert Kirkman. Invincible itself it an awesome superhero book about a kid whos dad is a superhero and he inherits the same powers and deals with that stuff plus your usual high school troubles. The action isn't really anything overly spectacular but Kirkman's dialogue and awesome characters that really make you feel for them wil get you hooked on this book almost instantly. Also check out Kirkman's work on Walking Dead which I fully recommend to anyone regardless of if you like zombie stories or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James D. Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 I bought the first graphic novel--Family Matters--and I was impressed. Looks like I'll be getting the subsequent volumes when I can afford them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melike Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Got the Hardcover - absolutely brilliant comic. Kirkman can do no wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I love this series. It has twists and turns, and the main character actually ages and moves ahead in in his life (he starts out in high school and moves on to college).

spiralmonk Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Invincible + Walking Dead = Perfection. If you want a universe or two that is not complex in terms of numbers of characters, but complex in terms of characters themselves. Robert Kirkman does pretty well in Marvel also (Marvel Zombies :laugh: ), but nothing beats these two. I got back into comics after about 10 years, but as soon as I found these, I was hooked.

Stavros Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 One of my favorite superhero comics. Its fresh, funny and yet a lot of the plots have real emotional weight. Ordinarily I'd be very cagey about recommending someone drop a lot of cash on a big hardcover but this is one of those times where I think its worth it. I just don't see how someone couldn't enjoy it, its one of the best superhero books out there right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragernok2002 Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Really gotten into Invincible, awesome book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 I wish it was still as good as it was the first 25 or so issues. It's still good, just not as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
