Invincible Ultimate Collection Hardcovers Overview!

[@terskatti4994]

These cost a lot of money, so i bought 3 compendiums. Nevertheless it's my favourite superhero comic of all time.

How is the binding I’m just afraid of the books bending wrong

Still my favorite run of all time. I can’t wait for the prime video animated show!!

[@paradox_music]

Well what do tou think so far? XD

[@harjon3583]

Depending on how loyal of a fan you are probably determines how much you like the show. They made some pretty heavy changes for NO reason. If you truly love the story as one of the best of all time...the show will make you uncomfortable at best. Its cool to see the action animated but they are ruining the story. Edit. It's not ALL bad. The writers make some unnecessary changes but so far, they seem inconsequential.

[@cinemasteve87]

Great timing since I just finished this. Never expected Invincible to be my favorite run ever! So many amazing character arcs and the scale of the universe-building is insane. I own the hardcover compendiums from Skybound and the “Complete Library” which are unnecessary but that’s how great this comic is. Ultimate Editions for oversized art look great too. Your channel has the best recommendations since I would have never read this if it wasn’t for NMC, keep up the great content!

Kirkman was just ready to move on, unfortunately. I miss it every time I look at my hardcovers. The only solace is the fact that Ottley moved onto Amazing Spider-Man.

[@AVC-qd8lr]

Near Mint Condition so far from what I’ve read it’s amazing. For me I think this is one I my favorite series to be honest. I love it for the characters, with Mark and his supporting cast, the book really makes you enjoy and care about everyone, I feel like that’s what this book is all about is these characters and seeing them grow and go through things together throughout the series. For me I enjoy the villains, but it’s the characters’ relationships that drive the book for me and is the heart of it all.

[@anthonygarcia8749]

Dude I freaking love this run 🔥🔥🔥🔥 definitely earns its spot in anybody's top 10 best comic runs. And I read this once for the first time about a year ago and the fact that I still remember all the major shit that went down as you flipped those pages says alot. And you get so caught up in these characters and the story. The action is awesome although it was unnerving at first to see all the graphic shit like eyeballs exploding and alla that and tbh don't really like seeing that type of stuff but eventually it grew on me and I just went with it lol. Also gonna say it but Allen and Mark are probably one of the best friendships in comics next to Peter and Harry or Steve and Bucky. Yup I'm saying that. But so many crazy shit happens to many characters that you grow to care about. Like what happens to Mark's brother and dad tore me up and also a quick fuck you to Robot for what he did too lol. But yeah man that ending also got me as well and brings everything full circle.
