Rough Trade Friday: Invincible
Look! In the sky! Its a bird! Its a plane! Its a cheap Superman knock-off! Kidding, of course! Invincible marked a radical departure for Image comics showing their lighter happier side. The story centers around 17-year-old Mark Grayson. He begins manifesting powers and starts operating as a superhero under the mentor-ship of his father, the superhero known as Omni-Man. Mark soon discovers that the source of his powers comes from his alien heritage. Of course as luck would have it, his father betrays him and the planet. He is not a member of a peaceful race, after all, but intent on preparing the planet for invasion. Fathers sucks sometimes.
The series was created and is still written by Robert Kirkman, with most of the art done by Cory Walker. A good fun series, it worth picking up the first few volumes for a quick read with your special someone.
