Taking a break from the seasonal madness today to pick up my Invisibles re-read. You'll all be pleased to hear it's still amazing, and I'm enjoying it so much that there's a pretty good chance there'll be a lot of Invisibles stuff on here in 2014. It's almost fifteen years now (!) since The Bomb/Barbelith's annotations and Anarchy For The Masses, maybe it's time to have another look at it, eh?
Pretty much the only thing DC left out of last year's Invisibles Omnibus were these King Mob and Lord Fanny paper dolls by Fabulous Phil Jimenez from 1999's Vertigo: Winter's Edge #2. There is a lot of really good stuff in the Omnibus book though, including series outlines for all three volumes of The Invisibles that go some way to answering the age old question of how the series would have progressed if 'Arcadia' had proven more popular - surprisingly the answer is almost exactly the same. There's a rough outline for the first year that - barring a one-shot Prisoner pastiche that never saw the light of day - follows pretty closely what was actually published, even after sales went down the toilet.
Anyway, for the sake of completism, here are the paper dolls, please let me know if you'd rather they weren't here (as long as there's a good reason for me to listen to you on that front). Considering putting up the 'Invisible Ink' letter columns next. Anyone interested in them?
