When they gave me my powers the installed mental blocks — That’s the only reason that I can’t use my powers on living organic matter. — Atom Eve explains why her powers are not the exact same as Firestorm and totally fails.
The Invincible War has ended and provided a nice narrative device to excuse an art change, a cast change and allow the lead singer of My Chemical Romance a chance to build murder zombies out of a whole raft of super corpses. Isn’t war grand?
We were left with a dead or dying Atom Eve at the end of 64, I’m gonna spoil this one and say that Eve is still alive. If this was a spoiler, congratulations, you are a long time Kirkman reader, expecting fully that Mr K would have not only killed Eve but had her cooked and them vomited into her own grave. I expected it, I was surprised that things didn’t turn out that way, golf clap for Robert Kirkman and Company for the twist.
Everything else, sadly, goes exactly how you expect. I like Invincible a ton, I don’t stop reading it and buy the big hardbound editions to read over and over, it is THE BEST “young” superhero comic out there. It hits all the correct notes and gives us enemies we can dig:
However I keep expecting Mr. K to kill off the main cast and start fresh with Allan the Alien or something. This might actually be the real appeal of the comic.
Either way. we don’t see much of the world in mourning after a global attack by Invincibites and the Cavity Creeps so we’ll have to wait another issue before we see the global Anit-Invincible movement getting up to steam. Also, that is Mark claiming that he’s going to go all Dirty Harry some time in the future. Can’t wait.
