![]() So much is assumed when it comes to superheroes. You can find my review on my blog by clicking here. It's a perfectly good read to pass the time though with a few really good twists and turns, so the problems I've had aren't enough to keep me from reading more, but it definitely isn't the home run hit that it's touted to be. ![]() I just wish that Mark was just more engaging as a character. I guess he's a strong man that can fly and is invulnerable, but I'm not totally sure. But 40 issues in, I feel like I should have a better sense of how our main character, Mark Grayson, deals with his powers, what he truly loves and fears, and even what his powers actually are. I wish it would be a bit more nuanced in its recapping and its homages.Īlso, I get that it's important to not rehash origin stories and superhero training tropes that we've heard many times before, and it's cool that they did away with all of that. It's entertaining enough, about a teenage hero trying to balance his world-saving activities, school, and personal life in the style of Spider-man. Unfortunately, I thought it was simply.fine. And created by Robert Kirkman of Walking Dead fame for Image comics, it had a lot of prestige going for it. It's just fun.įor years, I've been wanting to read this series and was constantly being told that it was one of the best superhero and best indie comics that you should read. The original artist, Cory Walker, leaves after issue 7, and Ryan Ottley comes on board for almost the entirety of rest of the series. Those of you who have read The Walking Dead will know what I'm talking about. Plus, Kirkman really knows how to drop those mind blowing cliffhangers. Kirkman's focus is on character driven moments as Mark grows into being a superhero. When he does, it's the typical Spider-Man type story until the story twists on its heels around issue 10. Mark's been waiting for the last few years to get his powers. Invincible's dad is basically the Superman of this world. Invincible begins as your standard teenage superhero story. I read the original trades and used these compendiums as an excuse to read it again. This is my second time through the series if that gives you any indication of how much I enjoyed it. I would recommend reading this digitally because a physical copy is going to be ridiculously hefty to lug around. It's the first 9 trades plus a couple of odds and ends.
