Thragg plots to get revenge from Invinvible and the Viltrumite empire. His new offspring will go against his family and create tension before the series’ conclusion.

The end is worth something, but the issue remains to be the over stretch. Soon we will have the great grandaughters joining the fight if we keep on milking the cow.

The faces are different.

Logic is often thrown out of window while reading a comic book , specially something as Over-the-top as Invincible , and yet this book nagged me for large bits . For one the first few chapters had a different art style , which was grating to my eye , to top it off they really did make Mark Grayson a Wimp , out of nowhere as well . He had a few moments earlier , but this book had him weeping so much it creeped me out . Not to mention the handling of Oliver , his character has done so many u-turns between a face and a heel character that it's annoying at this point plus his fate in the end was so anti-climatic . That said there were saving graces , from how Mark and Eve dealt with respective spousal pasts and Marks relationship with his Daughter and especially the final two volumes which were action packed and adrenaline rushed . Overall , it's starting to feel like after reaching a peak point somewhere around volume 20 , Invincible has become tiresome for me to read , with a lot of dull moments and very little payback to satisfy . Either ways , I am reading along with the idea there's only 2 more volumes to go . Either I will end up emotionally sated or just be done with this book

This was a nice setup for the final arc of Invincible. Damn, really sad to write that, even though I’ve read it before already.

Mark’s new life can’t begin without going back, and I’m excited to see how it wraps up again, since I don’t remember a lot of it.

I thoroughly enjoyed having Walker back on the title and his strong use of colors, namely pink. The gore was back and very strong. Solid arc with Thragg to set up the go home.

Plus, “Good morning, my glip glop” was definitely used on Rick and Morty and makes Justin Roiland’s Invincible cameo even better!
