The Invisibles is a great series written by Grant Morrison and put out by DC through the 90's. Tons of random mythology and angsty rebellion are interwoven with every conspiracy theory you can get your hands on. It is heavily violent and sexual and has many disturbing/grotesque elements to it, all of which are needed. It's general premise is that everything the perverted homeless schizophrenic bum was ranting about on the street is actually true. There's a definite 90's feel to it and the "extreme" elements from s&m to ultraviolence and everyone trying to be a freak/individual are all relevent and heart felt but seem dated in way, similar to an elderly hippy giving the peace sign not being taken seriously. The art is well done but a little stiff for my tastes, there's a definite english vibe to it, and the various sexuality issues will distract some. A nice piece of work that is definitely not for children nor to be discussed at thanksgiving with the fam. Remember when you first heard that there were people who pierced their genitals? That's this comic book. (.90)
