The Matrix Owes Everything to this 1994 Grant Morrison Comic! Walkthru of Issue #1 of The Invisibles (vol.1)

Grant Morrison's The Invisibles was so far ahead of its time, that we're only now catching up to it. What if every conspiracy theory was true? That's The Invisibles in a nutshell. If you've always been interested in this series, but never quite knew where to start, this is the video for you. I followed Grant Morrison's classic series from the time it hit the stands all the way to the end - of the world, that is! Are you ready? Your initiation is about to begin.



Let's go. The Invisibles is a comic book series published by the Vertigo imprint of DC Comics from 1994 to 2000. It was created and scripted by Scottish writer Grant Morrison, and drawn by various artists throughout its publication. The series loosely follows the doings of a single cell of The Invisible College, a secret organization battling against physical and psychic oppression using time travel, magic, meditation, and physical violence. For most of the series, the team includes leader King Mob; Lord Fanny, a transgender Brazilian shaman; Boy, a former member of the NYPD; Ragged Robin, a telepath with a mysterious past; and Jack Frost, a young hooligan from Liverpool who may be the next Buddha. Their enemies are the Archons of the Outer Church, interdimensional alien gods who have already enslaved most of the human race without their knowledge.

What is Comic-Jutsu?




Welcome to Comic-Jutsu, where we examine the martial behind the arts of Sequential Illustration! Each week, we'll bring you dissection videos breaking down your favorite heroes and their fight scenes.

A comic book, also called comicbook, comic magazine or (in the United Kingdom and Ireland) simply comic, is a publication that consists of comics art in the form of sequential juxtaposed panels that represent individual scenes. Panels are often accompanied by descriptive prose and written narrative, usually, dialogue contained in word balloons emblematic of the comics art form. Although comics have some origins in 18th century in Eastern Asia, comic books were first popularized[disputed – discuss] in the United States and the United Kingdom during the 1930s. The first modern comic book, Famous Funnies, was released in the US in 1933 and was a reprinting of earlier newspaper humor comic strips, which had established many of the story-telling devices used in comics. The term comic book derives from American comic books once being a compilation of comic strips of a humorous tone; however, this practice was replaced by featuring stories of all genres, usually not humorous in tone.
