It was the minimal establishment needed to make us care at least a bit about these guys. Yeah, to see them a couple of more issues doing something with Mark would be better for this purpose, but then the conclusion wouldn't be that unexpected and it wouldn't leave us with that many questions. No way you really expected Kirkman to kill all these guys and gals at once after spending a full issue to introduce them to you.
Invincible #7
| Writer | Robert Kirkman |
| Artist | Cory Walker |
Finally after numerous mentions in the book and countless off-screen deeds, the Guardians of the Globe make their triumphant first appearance! Watch as the most powerful super-team around steps in to handle a crisis of immeasurable proportions. But, how will Mark feel about this when the spotlight is stolen from him just as he's starting to get noticed? Also in this issue, an event that will change the status quo forever... we're not kidding, folks, do NOT miss this issue! This stand-alone story is a perfect jumping on point for new readers, a great opportunity to find out what all the buzz is about!

Cory Walker was too lazy here... WTF with the first two pages? It's like those programmers from India who got paid for the number of lines of the code written by them, not for the quality and actual sense... Hm... Don't comic book artist get money for the number of pages too? Also most of the sections here were drawn by guest artists and they were cool, I must admit. The issue has a simple structure: while Mark is sleeping, the Guardians of the Globe get summoned by his father, who then kills them all at once as violently as possible. Yeah, I expected it after the show, but I didn't expect it then, so I think I definitely wouldn't expect it here as well. I believe Kirkman thought he was really cool after putting something as unexpected and more

Probably the weakest issue so far. Just moved too fast establishing characters that we won't ever see again.
