Awesome Covers: Invincible War.


This comic pretty much spelled out for me 'BUY THIS COMIC! IT IS AWESOME!' So I did. Invincible is one of the most popular series from Image comics. Why? Well it was one of the first major changes of pace for Image. The company was famous for Savage Dragon and Spawn, two dark and gritty comics (though Dragon wasn't really dark or gritty, but it focussed on a Policeman). Invincible is more of a callback to the golden age. With some pretty graphic violence. That is, considering it's about teenagers...mostly. God I ramble on.

Okay, the cover. The cover is one of those basic group shots you see in crossovers. The story is that all the superheroes are brought in to fend of a small group of clones of the title character (Invincible). Before this happens, most of the world is destroyed, but most of the heroes get to kick some ass...even Madman!

But TKWTS, besides the decent art and cool selection of heroes, what makes this qaulify as an awesome cover? Well it folds out. This isn't even half the cover! I'd show you the rest, but my scanner sucks.
