With the world about to undergo its biggest disaster ever, CAPTAIN AMERICA and NAMOR are nowhere to be found! But on a tiny island in the ocean, two men are having a long overdue conversation. DEAD IN THE WATER continues here!
Rated T+
I will be sad to see this book end next issue, but I really liked the setup here to get to it. Chip Zdarsky sets up the team and the men beneath the superhero facade and I am sure the final battle will mean way more because of it. I know its too late to save this book, but if you havent been reading it, its not too late to jump on, catch up and enjoy the finale with all us cool kids that know where its at! Read Full Review
Eleven issues in, and there isn't much more left to say about how awesome Chip Zdarsky, Carlos Magno, and Butch Guice'sInvaders is. The stakes are high but Zdarsky never forgets to keep a beating human heart at the center. Wars come and go, but brotherhood is forever! Read Full Review
Both Carlos Magno and Butch Guice do amazing work with the art. The contrast in the two styles works for conveying the tone of both the past and present in this story. Read Full Review
I always love reading Invaders comics when I was a kid. But, of course, they were throwbacks to a different era. I never thought they could put the team into present-day continuity with the original human torch being the Vision in today's world and Namor being more of a villain than a hero. But the powers that be at the big M found a way and I'm glad they did. The end of this issue brings us a no-nonsense moment between Cap and the Sub Mariner that will grip the reader as they try to mesh out their differences and reconcile their current battle. An awesome issue all around. **** (9.1 rating) Read Full Review
The character work and flashbacks remain potent, but the present is much more messy than those regular and rewarding looks back. Read Full Review
At its core, Invaders is a book about Steve and Namor, and Invaders 11 exposes that dynamic to its fullest extent, as Steve and Namor are stranded together on an island without their powers. Tremendous penultimate issue that successfully sets up the series finale
This series deserves to keep going. Chip Zdarsky nails these characters.
Great Invaders book that's ending too quick. Yes it's obvious Zdarsky is rushing some things but I'm sure he was told to wrap it up after 12 issue. Guice and Magno are great together!!
These characters are so great and I love this whole thing.
I would have rated this much higher it it were called Marvel Team Up or Marvel Two In One because it tells a good story about CA and Namor.
If, however, you are a fan of ANY of the other Invaders, there's not much there. In fact, The Original Torch, Toro, Winter Soldier, and Spitfire appear on one page only. This, and the numerous errors in the Torch's history, are my biggest knocks on this book.
Strong chapter. Contrivances continue but can be overlooked.
