Mister Invincible GN – Magnetic Press introduces a superhero that breaks all the rules to save the day. But in a good way. Mr. Invincible is an average looking, unassuming guy in wrestling tights and a mask. But he manages to save the day through his amazing and sometimes unexplainable powers. He is able to bend the laws of space and time by reaching outside the panels of the comic book to affect things in the surrounding panels! Mad scientists and bad guys are no match for Mister Invincible’s power of breaking comic book physics. This wacky title puts a creative twist on conventional comic book reading that middle school readers will love.
