Invincible is one of my favorite comics. It has the serial urgency of Kirkman's Walking Dead without being depressing every other issue. Like Spider-man did for kids in the 60's, Invincible does a great job of projecting the a superhero fantasy, but for the modern age.

I don't have the Ultimate Collection, just the individual issues, but a friend of mine does have the Ultimate Collection and they're great.  Invincible is one of my favorite books.  It's a shame that a majority of my favorites are from companies outside of the big 2.

I love Invincible. I started a bit late also (somewhere after the 5th or 6th trade) and I've been buying the trades since. There are 11 of them out now, stopping at issue 59 right before the Invincible War which kinda sucks because Kirkman is slow as hell on trades and I've been wanting to keep going with Invincible for quite a while now! If you're just getting into Invincible I would recommend these Ultimate Collections -- It's WAY cheaper than the trades and they do feel awesome to read (I had a look through one at my local shop when the first one came out) and the series itself is great.

It's probably one of my favorite comics going right now,  I seriously can't wait for the next arc (my mind is blanking on what it is called) because it is probably going to be really amazing.

I love me some Invincible. It's my favourite superhero comic on the market right now. It takes a world that we're all familiar with and then makes it fresh, very entertaining and funny while still being a superhero comic. It perfectly balances humour and tragedy, slice-of-life segments and action and it's all done with fantastic freakin' art.
 
Invincible is greeeeaaaaaaat, in every way.

Yeah Invincible is really great. I also came on late (read it last summer) but I thought it was totally worthy of all the praise it gets.

invincible rules !!! 

i get the invincible collections every year for xmas and i read the whole thing in one day. they are so great!! definitely a must read

everyone needs to read it !!!!!!!!!

Invincible has to be one of the best comics  I have ever read

I also got into this book ridiculously late (and love it, obviously). I think I might just grab the 3rd Ultimate Collection instead of books 6 and 7. It only saves me 9 cents, but oversized hardcovers are pretty impossible to resist. Thanks for pointing them out, IE.

It is one of the better comics.
I wouldnt say its better than and DC or Marvel comics... its just different.
Equally great.
And  definitely one of my favorites.

" @Korg: you also get a bunch of great sketches, commentary, and other stuff in the back of each collection "

Mwahaahahaha!!!! inferiorego has finally become a slave to the sheer awesomeness known as Invincible!

Invincible is actually my two favorite American comics. love it.

Yes, yes I have. I love Invincible! Kirkman channels the early Lee/Ditko Spider-Man stories, yet makes them fresh enough for today's comic readers. Ottley's art blows me away as well. I feel like the big two have moved far away from telling fun superhero comics, so I'm really glad that comics like Invincible are out there.    

I have all four of the ultimate collection

About a month ago i was picking up some runaways trades from the library and i saw this huge first volume of invincible. i figured why not, so i checked it out. Easily the best decision ive made so far this year. They take the ordinary concept of teenage superhero and make it EXTRAORDINARY. At wondercon people were going nuts looking for any Invincible in the 50% off trade bins. I've got Vol.2 on my reserve list at the library. Gettin' that FASHO.

" everyone needs to read it !!!!!!!!! "

when i first saw invincible, i didnt recognize kirkmans name as the god behind the short lived Tech Jacket. So  when i finally started reading. i had to buy the first 9 tpb's to catch up.
 Invincible is one of the greatest comics to ever exist imo, and i am willing to buy almost anything kirkman does with it (the exception being the poorly dubbed Motion comic.) 
 Most of the sketched in over sized have been shown elsewhere before, but if oversize is your cup of tea, more power to you. But i would still suggest buying the tpbs first and trading them out for OS'ed as they come, because one of the sexiest things about Kirkman/Ottley/Walker work is watching the splendid art evolve as it goes.

Invincible is the only comic I have to go and get on the week it comes out.  No other comic builds up the excitement like invincible, for me.

Invincible is by far the best superhero comic out on the shelves today...nuff said.

Septemer 2008 was the first time i even heard of this book on the net cause their was a rumour that they were making a film, the next week i bought the first volume and have picked up everything and anything that ties into it or has Kirkman's name on it.
 
Invincible too awesome for words but if I had to describe it I'd say it was awesome.

" @-Eclipse-:  yea that was cool, his work is cool, check out his drawing of Superboy it's amazing like how he done his jacket
