“My greatest hope in life is to one day, when I’m much older,

It’s been many years now that Ryan Ottley and myself, with occasional help from co-creator Cory Walker (issue 130 in stores soon!) have been chronicling the adventures of Mark Grayson and the many characters that orbit his life. As I began plotting out the issues that lay ahead of us over this next year, I started to realize I was reaching a… conclusion. The big Viltrumite epic, which began with Nolan Grayson going to Earth and fathering Mark, and kicked off with their confrontation all those years ago in issue 11… was coming to an end. Everything was converging in this one story, and looking back, I realized I’d been working toward this the whole time. In talking it over with Ryan I learned, much to my surprise, that the idea of drawing something other than INVINCIBLE someday… and not being stuck in this monthly grind we’ve been in for well over a decade… appealed to him. So it wasclear, I was writing to a conclusion and Ryan was also drawing to one.

So that led to the question of what comes next?

I briefly considered bringing on another team, starting that eventual march to that book I’d read in my old age and throw across the room saying, “This isn’t INVINCIBLE!” And while I did consider some really cool options that would have led to some really cool issues of INVINCIBLE… more and more as I thought about it, I realized ending the series was the right thing to do.

So that’s what we’re doing! Issue 144, the conclusion of the 12-part epic THE END OF ALL THINGS, will be the final issue of Invincible. I’m sure when it’s all said and done, I’ll be sad, and I know I will miss these characters, but for the time being, I’m excited. Ryan will be coming back to the book with issue 133 in November, and we’re going to hit the ground running. We’ve got a wild ride in store for the fans where we’re going to touch every corner of the Invincible Universe, and in the end, tie things up in a really cool and unexpected way.

So we’ve got a little over a year to go, and it’s going to be one hell of a year! So please join us for our swan song, thirteen years in the making! We couldn’t have done it without you, the fans, so lets all cross the finish line together!

Fuuck. This is one of the only series that I read that is going on this long still. And with Invincible and Chew ending I'm fucked.

Good, as much as I love Invincible it really does feel as if there isn't too much left they can do with the series.
And hopefully this means Ottley can spread his wings a bit more too.

>>85550199
Shiiiiiittttttt fuuuuucccckkkkk

Damn I actually like this comic

can they really wrap up everything in 14 issues?
there are only 14 issues left of invincible ?
fuck.

and how long is he going to keep that wretched abomination walking dead going?

damnit, kirkman.
damnit.

>>85550199
I gave up reading this book when Mark and Eve went off planet. and made several hundred dollars selling my run to a collector

>>85550531
where is that money now

>>85550389
Well, Walking Dead actually makes him money. Invincible, as much as he has tried, does not. Kirkman has transformed into a businessman first, a comic book creator second. Not that I'm complaining about this because, honestly, the book had been dragging its feet since the Viltrumite War.

if no delays invincible will be over in october 2017


speculations on how itll end?

I can't believe it. I hope one day this book gets adapted into a cartoon and not a shitty tv show with terrible effects.

>>85550199
Good. I had to drop the book a year ago because the decompression was so terrible. I'll be glad to sit down and finish it when its over.

How is The Negan Experience a "wretched abomination"?

Well shit, I wasn't expecting an ending so soon.

>>85550891
The Japanese have all that in their cartoons all the time!

>>85550991
i aint talking you outtta nothin'

>>85551034
I just want to understand your depraved mind, anon.

>>85551059
>not liking a character that swears more than a 10 year old discovering swear words
>not being into a character thats core focus is to please gore porn fanatics
>buying into a mini arc where his family dies and now he is just the be all end all mad man

im sure im the deprived one, anon.

walking dead fans are the fucking worst

>>85551007
What do you mean? The books been moving at a snails pace for 2 years. Its been awful.

>>85551153
There's a wee bit too much salt in this post. Waiter, take it back.

But what will happen to my rape-fu?

>>85551191
She will live on in your heart.

>>85551154
have you went back and read those issues?
alot of shit happened. ALOT. the gay ass reboot arc is what made everything seem slow....


actually
the reboot arc was a great reflection on kirkman and invincible in recent years
he has great ideas but no longer knows how to land them correctly
everything seems rushed during the good parts and slowed down during the bad

>>85551225
>not your dick/anus

why even live!?

>>85550715
Me too man, FX or Adult Swim.

Invincible ends but the Walking Dead ends, this feels wrong in so many ways.

>>85551190
you literally ordered my opinion, of course you weren't going to like the taste.

>>85551268
>Invincible ends but the Walking Dead will probably never end

Fixed. Christ I need sleep.

>>85551268
>>85551302
Well Kirkman did say he wants to keep it up until he dies.
