INVINCIBLE has been reinvented, for better or for worse. In my opinion, Robert Kirkman can do no wrong. So when issue 51 was shipped to my house I devoured it and absolutely loved it. New costume, new partner, new-ish base of operations.. basically a small paradigm shift for the book.
Here are my personal high points:
- the developing relationship between Invincible and his brother.
- the cool new costume
- the great colors by Fco Plascencia
- the issue's headline "The All-New, All-Awesome INVINCIBLE"
For me (I can be picky) there are only two negative things for the issue:
- the cover by Jim Lee. It's not horrible, but there was no reason for it to not be an Ottley cover (but Ottley did do the 2nd print cover, so I guess it evens out well enough)
- Invincible looks somewhat awkward without the knee-pads. I thought they looked really cool. But it isn't my book, so what can I do about it? The costume still looks great, though.
So I'm pretty much loving the series, especially since I just started getting it monthly with issue #50. The series shows no signs of slowing down, and I wouldn't drop the book even if it did.

Knee pads.
I’m glad to see them go. I also like how the characters acknowledged how silly knee pads are on someone who is indestructable.
He’s Invincible, but he can still feel pain. The pads were pretty much for visual purposes, which I liked.
