Funeral for the fallen.
Kirkman leaves readers with plenty to chew on regarding future threats to Invincible and friends. That scheming Cecil is still up to no good, but he's only the tip of the iceberg at this point. After reading this issue, it's hard not to be excited for the upcoming Viltrumite War next year. Given how much action and drama readers have been subjected to over the past year, it should be a real doozy. And with any luck, Kirkman will be able to strike a better balance of said action and drama next time around. As much as this issue sends "Conquest" off in style, a more even dispersion is not a bad thing. Read Full Review
Almost as interesting as the issue itself is the letters page, where Kirkmans readers take him to task for the seeming murder of Atom Eve. Its like the death of Phoenix all over again, 25 years later. The outrage is in one way the ultimate compliment to how involved readers are in Kirkmans story. He handles the abuse in his flinty but entertaining manner, but I dont have any worry about his readers. Kirkman knows exactly what hes doing and where hes going with this title. They just need to become as invulnerable as Mark! Read Full Review
