A review by crookedtreehouse
Invincible: Ultimate Collection, Vol. 9 by Robert Kirkman
3.0
This volume wraps up many of the threads that ran throughout volumes seven and eight of the Invincible Ultimate collections. I'm glad they got wrapped up because, as you might have noticed if you read my reviews of either of those collections, I thought they were garbage, and most of them I was reading for the first time, as I stopped reading individual issues of Invincible somewhere in the 80s, because I was no longer enjoying the series, and then I picked up issue 100 to give it a shot, and hated it.
If you read volumes seven and eight, this volume will give you some closure to some of the stories.
While this book isn't as terrible as the previous two volumes, it's unnecessary to the larger story if you didn't suffer through them.
I recommend it only to Invincible completists who suffered through volumes seven and eight and who are willing to read something that has caused me to use the word "suffer" multiple times when describing reading a comic book series that, during my review of the first few volumes, I referred to as one of the best superhero comics of the 21st century. It will get better again.
