The Invisibles – Volume 1 – by Grant Morrison
Rating: 4/5
Writing Style: Great, but super-stuffed with religions, aliens, myths, psychic powers, dimensional over-lapped worlds, etc…
Summary: A more advanced version of the Matrix movie, with inter-dimensional alien villains instead of human-made robots.
Comments: Over the top so far, but I am glad to have finally come across this series. I liked the original Matrix movie, and with this series you can see exactly where each scene in the Matrix was pulled from. They just had to simplify this graphic novel story line to make a movie.
I would put this comic series in the same area as Neil Gaiman’s Sandman series. No doubt why both were published by Vertigo. Both great.
