The comics were serialized in 2003-2018 for 15 years, and the whole article has 3720 pages.
Different from Dc and Marvel in the monopoly industry, different from the plots and film adaptations of various collapsed forces and character settings, this realistic anti-hero comic is the No1 I have seen comics in the past ten years. , I ranked it first among all the comics I have read.
From the perspective of different forces, it is difficult to judge which is right and wrong. In order to protect their planet, people on earth fight against alien forces.
In order to avoid genocide, the V-star people choose the most suitable earth reproduction and revival. In order to avenge the V family, the Star Alliance confronts the V family. This is the characteristic of anti-hero comics. You can't find the real "decent" or the real "villain". The existence of each party has its own meaning. Any conflict and contradiction will cause deep reflection. Who is right and who is wrong?
From the perspective of small and fragmented characters, they often end in tragic endings. The cruel and ruthless sharp edge of reality is no exception to good people and heroes.
Director Sissel is just an ordinary person. As the Director of the Global Defense Agency, facing a powerful foreign force, in order not to rely on Mark, he recruits lunatic scientists to transform zombie soldiers with living people to fight against powerful enemies. Unscrupulously protecting the earth, even if it is the result of sacrificing life, he doesn't care. Repeatedly fell out with Mark and was almost killed. In the final end, the robot stepped on his head and even failed to collect the whole body. No one knows the funeral, only Mark and his girlfriend attended.
This reminds me of what the master said, "The destiny must be in the hands of the people of the earth." Isn't this the case for Director Sissel? A hero has ended up like this.
As the protagonist, Mark did not have the protagonist's halo. He was beaten to death, interrupted, hollowed out, and even dismembered.
The whole comic tells a truth: "Being a good person does not end well. Being a hero does not end well."
The psychological transformation of each character is also one of the highlights of the comics. From the protagonist Mark to Almighty Nolan, the contradictions and conflicts between a father and son are also watered down by love and time, and they have disappeared in the fight side by side. Mark Affected his father and awakened Nolan's sense of responsibility and love. In the final battle, Nolan's life came to an end, and the dying exhortations to Mark made people moved.
From the perspective of the protagonist's personal line, Mark started as a 17-year-old ordinary high school student, but he has the strongest racial blood in the universe, the son of the strongest hero Almighty. In his lifetime, how many times has Mark stood on the verge of death, how many times he has defeated an opponent several times stronger than himself, and how many times has he made a difficult choice in the struggle of human nature. He has witnessed countless deaths and joys and sorrows. He has also flinched, given up, doubted, experienced violent storms, and finally became a unique race leader.
"Invincibility" is not only an indestructible body and strength, but also his almost invincible belief, which allows him to stick to the justice in his heart, maintain the balance between the dual bloodlines and identities of the earth people and the V star people, and fight for the earth. Wife and daughter fight, fight for love.
And Mark has dreamed of being a hero since he was a boy, never killing anyone, even a vicious villain. After countless experiences, the words "Hero? Fuck the hero" when he blasted the head of the son of the regent also confirmed the main color of the story of the anti-hero comic again.
The irony is that despite Mark's nickname "Invincible Young Hero" from the beginning of the comic to the end, Mark's combat power has never been ranked first. At the end of the comics, Mark's appearance is no longer a "young man", his sideburns have white hair, and he has become a middle-aged man.
But he will always be the invincible young man in the hearts of all readers.
Compared with other traditional American comic fixation modes, it formats the creation of heroes. Invincible Young Heroes highlights the word "humanity" throughout the article. It is not only an attack on ideal heroism and a beautiful ending to the story, but also a model of realist works, exposing the dehumanizing side of heroes who seem to be "just".
Invincible Shaoxia, in its unique way, allows us to see a unique hero, even from the perspective of modern mainstream values, this is not a true hero, and this is where its charm lies.
It has such a profound impact on me that I will always remember that I read this comic when I was 17 years old.
