This review is from: Invincible Volume 8: My Favorite Martian (v. 8) (Paperback)

Anyone who has read Invincible can tell you that it is one of the best super hero comic books out their. Kirkman has delivered the goods with this series and this volume is no different. This wraps up and continue to develop plotlines that were introduced several volumes back. This volume is packed with the kind of action and humor that fans ofthe series have come to love. Kirkman's phenomenal writing continues to take this book in directions that will leave all of his readers in awe. If you are new to invincible I hate to say it but you have to start from the beginning to fully enjoy it however if you have been reading this title all along, quit wasting your time reading this and order the book.

This review is from: Invincible Volume 8: My Favorite Martian (v. 8) (Paperback)

Kirkman, as far as I'm concerned, is the premiere superhero writer working in comics today. His work isn't necessarily as dark or violent as some of the other artists currently producing stuff, but (in my opinion) it's easily the best. Invincible is a believable hero, with great dialogue and interesting characters. Kirkman makes you care about all the people in his books- there's less "violence for the sake of violence" so that when a fight really comes around, it has some kind of impact.

This particular volume picks up on a thread from one of the earliest Invincible storylines and weaves a pretty good tale out of it. I'd recommend picking up all of the Invincible trades... and take a look at Kirkman's Walking Dead, while you're at it! The guy is just a great writer.
