Invincible #55

A red-skinned, snarling figure dominates the foreground of Ryan Ottley and FCO Plascencia's cover, radiating raw menace as wreckage and machinery scatter behind him — while a pale, powerfully built opponent charges forward amid what looks like a battlefield of twisted metal and smoke. The title's bold "All-New, All-Awesome" banner sets the tone perfectly for this 2008 chapter of Robert Kirkman's series, promising that whatever is locked down, it's anything but quiet. If you like your superhero action rough, physical, and unapologetically intense, issue #55 looks like a strong place to be.
