One of the most epic DC crossover events ever!

Resilient. Overpowering. Unstoppable. By their very nature, our planet’s superheroes have become a threat to the rest of the universe. Now, an alliance has formed between the fiercest, most calculating alien races to pursue a single goal: the elimination of Earth’s guardians.

As war erupts all over the world, Superman leads the charge against these would-be alien conquerors. Can our planet’s greatest champions repel an army of invaders, each with the strength to rival the Man of Steel? One thing is certain: surrender is not an option!

Commanding the troops are writers Keith Giffen (JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL, THE NEW 52: FUTURES END) and Bill Mantlo (THE INCREDIBLE HULK), with art by comics superstar Todd McFarlane (SPIDER-MAN, SPAWN) and Bart Sears (WARLORD).

Les débuts de Todd McFarlane

Reviewed in France 🇫🇷 on October 14, 2013

Pour ceux qui, comme moi, ont été sensibles (et le sont encore) au style de McFarlane (bien avant Spawn) notamment pour son interprétation de Spider-man (avec David Michelinie), ce recueil est pour vous. D'abord parce qu'il précède de peu son travail sur Spider-man et parce qu'il reproduit fidèlement les couleurs originelles de l'époque. Pas de re-colorisation à l'ordinateur avec effets inutiles & abusifs... (mis à part sur la couverture).

DC Post Crisis

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 13, 2018

Reading any big "event" comic years later, you have to accept it as part time capsule, part narrative. Event books are sold at the time as being earth-shattering events that change the fabric of their fictional universes... but with time, pretty much any event fades into insignificance, or it's reconned to have never happened.

As a narrative, Invasion! falls a but flat. None of the tie-in books are included, so major events happen off-page and the major hook, Earth's heroes and villains uniting to fight back an invasion from multiple alien races simultaneously, isn't as satisfactory as it could be. The actual ending of the book happens 2/3 of the way in, with an overly long denouement that's kind of a chore to get through. This isn't helped by the art which was done partially by Todd McFarlane with the other artists seemingly trying to follow his style. So, if you're looking for a global story that shows the DC Universe pushed to the breaking point, Final Crisis or even Infinite Crisis are probably better choices.

If you wanted to get a glimpse of the DCU circa 1988, however, it's pretty enjoyable. There are characters given center stage that haven't really been given this big a role much in more recent books: Maxwell Lord and Amanda Waller (the only female character with more three lines, oddly enough) are the main human focal characters with the Omega Men and the pre-Morrison Doom Patrol occupying as central a role as the Justice League International, while Superman is taking orders from Captain Atom for much of the book. For that matter, Oberon has more lines than Batman. The real focus, however, is on the different aliens of the invading alliance. And again, mileage may vary. If you're the type of reader that finds the diplomatic relationships between the Dominators and Khunds (or for that matter, the Klingons and the Romulans or the Kree and the Skrull), you'd probably enjoy it... If not, you'll probably spent the first fifty pages waiting for any character you recognize to show up.

Simply put, if you want to get an idea of where DC was at the end of the Cold War, this is definitely worth a read, but keep the Wikipedia article open because there's a lot the book doesn't care to explain.

I am know people think Marvel is better then DC. There was a time when DC produced great stories. Even if some things are not familiar, just enjoy the ride.
