For Pijameros readers

The first thing to say about Invincible is that it is a series designed for the enjoyment of all those comic book readers who grew up reading the superheroes of Marvel Comics y DC Comics. This is the comic that his screenwriter wrote for the young Kirkman, who launched the worst stories of SupermanFrom Batmanof Captain Americaof X-Men And also all the characters Grim & Grytty of Image Comics of the 90s.

Kirkman put all those clichés, that style and that mythology in a cocktail box and has redeemed everything with a head plan and a special ability to do, with the same bases, his is much superior. But be careful, this does not mean that readers outside of this type of stories cannot enjoy invincible. It only means that those in this border will be those who will appreciate the work of the managers on several levels.

Know Mark Grayson

The protagonist of this story is Mark GraysonA young man whose nature gives medium -sized characteristics between a young man Clark Kent and a ferocious Peter Parker. His father is Omni-WomanThe most powerful superhero on Earth. One day, while he eliminates the garbage, his powers wake up as if he had lowered his domain Cryptionian. From there, it becomes the yellow and blue hero that gives the series name.

At the beginning, everything seems to go to wheels: Mark trains with his charismatic and great father, has an enviable romantic life and indicates his first fight against spatial monsters. For the reader this beginning can be tremendously routine, without emotions and boring. And this is Kirkman’s way to lay the foundations for what will come soon, to show that this has not been designed as the NTH copy of Spiderman. Because when the narrative interruption arrives, it will do so with the strength of one million soles.

From the moment the story affects a radical turning point (something that will not use much to discover in this first full volume and that is better not to reveal in the event that someone has not yet spoken about it despite the success of the fantastic adaptation made by Amazon) Kirkman becomes serious to perform an emotionally devastating brutal exploration on the inheritance, betrayal and responsibility for having super powers.

And all this while many plots and subfilm follow each other and unfold on each other so that the thick group of characters who populate these pages (the majority of the transumpes of others that we already know) do not give a break to the reader and continue to surprise him and keep him taking the volume as if his life depended on it.

Graphic ultraviolence

In the graphics section we meet first Cory WalkerThis laid the foundations with a clean and expressive style (even if not everything that might be), but it is then that a huge Ryan Ottley He enters the scene and collects his relay when the comic rises and becomes a visual orgy of action, ultraviolence and moments of intensity as they had never seen in such a comic, taking many elements of the Shonen Japanese more avant -garde -garde. The fights have weight and feel real.

This volume is the beginning of one of the best series of superheroes ever written. Maybe the best. It is fun, ruthless, soap opera, intelligent and emotionally powerful. It is a series written by a boy with an incredible talent to break some rules written decades in this genre and make everything work. And above all, this volume, despite being wonderful, is the worst of this series. We are just heating the engines. What is coming is truly surprising.

Invincible 1

The first volume of compilation of Invincible by Robert Kirkman in which the successful video animation series is inspired!

More than 700 pages of the iconic series! Any enthusiast invincible must have one of these on their shelf.

Mark Grayson is like all the boys of his age. He studied the last year in a normal and current institute. It has a disgusting job after lessons and on weekends. He really likes girls, but he doesn’t understand them. He likes to go out with his friends and get up late on Saturdays (or, at least, get up when the good drawings begin). The only difference between Mark and the other boys of his age is that his father is the most powerful superhero on the planet and, apparently, he inherited the same powers as his father. Bringing the legacy of his father will be the origin of Mark’s problems.

This episode collects the popular comic book series: Invincible #1-24, #0 and Image Comics Summer Special #1. It includes a wonderful introduction by Robert Kirkman and has more than 140 pages of additional materials created for the final invincible ending with sketches, design and original pages with comments from the authors.
