Mark just wants to live a quiet life with his family and be happy... but that would be a boring comic book series.
Invincible #131 gets you excited for how far Mark is pushed to get back into the fight, it makes you scared for the safety of his family considering he has given everything up for them, and the anger that these two of the Viltrum could be so heartless for what they are trying to do.

There's a palpable sense of danger and unease in the air, particularly as mark finds himself and his family targeted for death by Thragg's children. That life-or-death struggle is the sole focus of this issue. Unfortunately, as urgent as that conflict is, this issue struggles to maintain its drive and impetus. Read Full Review
Invincible #131 is not a fun or interesting issue. It's not even a bad issue. A bad issue I can actually excuse. But Invincible #131 is just a boring issue that lacks the punch I've come to expect from this series. I believe that Robert Kirkman has big things in store for Invincible in the future but this was not his best turn out. It's time we actually saw the hero of the series, Invincible, actual do something that pushes the story forward rather than just being surprised at all the changes from the time skip. Hopefully the next issue delivers on that and returns to the quality expected of Kirkman's Invincible. Read Full Review
It's so hard to fight bad guys and protect someone at the same time...
The art is growing on me, but the schedule is not. Invincible seems to be limping towards its conclusion whereas I was hoping it would go out in a blaze of glory.
