Invisibles has always been the Morrison series where everything clicked for me, despite its way-frayed edges and weird thematic rejiggers.<br /><br />Hoping for the Deluxe treatment as well.nicolasixnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-59719755463597790832011-10-27T16:13:38.223-05:002011-10-27T16:13:38.223-05:00I wouldn't recommend The Invisibles to someone...I wouldn't recommend The Invisibles to someone who hasn't already developed a tolerance to Morrison's weirdness by reading his more mainstream work, but I absolutely agree it doesn't get the recognition it deserves.<br /><br />The thing is, much of The Invisibles feels like propaganda, as if Morrison is trying to sell us on his peculiar view of the universe, and some readers have a hard time keeping their distance from the text and enjoying it as pure entertainment.<br /><br />However, you don't have to buy into everything Morrison says in order to enjoy his books and appreciate his craft. Most writers don't even try to make something as complex and meaningful as The Invisibles, and the way Morrison pulls it off is awe-inspiring.<br /><br />Thanks for your reviews, Zach, and I hope you review more comics sometime.shagamuhttp://mbbforum.com/mbbnoreply@blogger.com
