The super-hero community is abuzz with the who, what, when, where, why, and how. Unbeknownst to him, Invincible is at the center of the most dramatic event to hit the super-hero community in decades.

Invincible? Try IMPECCABLE!,
By Mike Hall (Emporia, KS) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Invincible (Book 3): Perfect Strangers (Paperback)
I think what I find most enjoyable about Robert Kirkman's work on Invincible is that he doesn't really serve up anything we haven't seen before-in some way or the other, it's all familiar fare-but he manages to take the all-too familiar and make it vibrant all over again. His characters feel like real people, with real emotions and real responses to the events that go on around them, taking "classic" events to heights we've never seen them taken before. In a nutshell, reading a Robert Kirkman super-hero book is like re-reading the stories of our youth with the exception that this time the stories actually HAVE the "punch" we only remember those old stories having.

A bloody powerful book!,
By
This review is from: Invincible (Book 3): Perfect Strangers (Paperback)
Robert Kirkman has such a wicked sense of humor and this book is such the perfect vehicle for that. The ting about this book though is that panel to panel and page to page, this book changes completely. Humor, action, drama, & mystery can be found in each book. There are so many emotions in this volume particularly. The revelations revealed here were huge. It was hard to read, empathically. You actually could feel for these characters. The art by Ryan Ottley is extremely bloody and, pun intended, bloody beautiful! I really enjoyed it but still wish there was a little more detail in the backgrounds. Overall, an amazing collection. I can't wait to read the next one.

My Criticisms are Fading Away,
By Tyler S. "Super-Review" (Brentwood, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Invincible (Book 3): Perfect Strangers (Paperback)
By the third volume I'm really starting to connect with the series. "Perfect Strangers" feels a little less like a parody and its growing into a real story. This collection really brings out the Kirkman suspense as we are revealed the mystery behind Mark's father. Since this shocking discovery I think all of us can say, "It's all uphill from here".
Compared to the first to, volume three is a much more entertaining read. It's a lot less silly and it's going to get serious. If you thought the first two were iffy and you're reading this to decide whether to continue, I urge you to. This round Kirkmans saying "I'm not screwin' around".
