How often do we see a comic book version of a hit animated TV show that's just an inferior copy of the original? Well, not this time, my fellow pathetic humans! This is well and truly up to the standard of the original. Which is none too surprising, considering how it came to be. The exact history of how the original version went off the air can be a contentious one, but a I think it's clear that to some degree at least, Vasquez just got sick of working within the strictures Nickelodeon imposed on him. Anyway, this book sees Vasquez returning to his home turf, and clearly the medium in which he is most comfortable.If you ignore that change in medium, these ARE fresh episodes of Invader Zim. The only difference, as some have commented before me, is that there's very occasionally a slightly stronger reference or language than would be allowed on Nickelodeon. Nothing major. You know that word that rhymes with "nerd" and refers to feces? That kind of thing. Purists need not fear, however: it never descends into the inane "reverse censorship" of the "Adult Party" version of Ren & Stimpy. What we find here is - dare I say it? - natural and organic. And yes, for the skeptics among you, I do mean that in a good way: definitely no fertilizer.This is Invader Zim in its purest and truest form.Theo.
The first five issues of the Invader Zim comic have been collected into a tpb. The issues are separated in the book by their respective cover. I've never seen this before in a tpb but it fits well as there is no constant story or writer. The first two issues (a two part story) are phenomenal and the others are good as well. There are no extras in the this book except for some artist/writer bios. The lack of extras isn't too frustrating but I was really hoping to have all the different alternate artworks collected together.
Vasquez did it again! He never fails to plaster a huge smile on my face, as i continue the well written hilarious adventures of Zim & his quirky dumbfounded sidekick Gir!I'll admit- when i found out that Invader Zim was getting discontinued from nickelodeon after only two mere seasons, i was extremely disappointed and heartbroken that i would no longer hear from my favorite pessimistic protagonist. But as soon as i heard Jhonen was continuing the series via comic format, i was super pumped to see his new work, no longer being restricted by nickelodeon's strict terms and policies, and i can certainly say; i am far from disappointed!The series is back, and honestly better than ever, still keeping in touch with its origin of somewhat dark humor, it still maintained family friendly and full of funny and quirky jokes, keeping me all more than entertained!The illustrations were beautifully drawn in Vasquez signature gothic style, keeping in sync with the same style from the now canceled show.This book definitely earned a laugh from me and my family especially at Dib's first appearance in the book, as dibchair? chairdib? i don't know, but i certainly don't want to spoil it. All i can say is it was worth every penny, and i cannot wait for Jhonen to continue his marvelous work.Overall the book came in the estimated time frame, and came in perfect condition.you will certainly hear from me again!
Pretty good, but nothing will replace that show. Jhonen's dark af humor translated well enough to the page in JTHM, but Zim just doesn't make the leap quite as well. Probably just because we all met him in animation, and it's hard to take that step backwards. I know the Futurama and Simpsons comics don't compare to their shows, either. Still - it's the best you're gonna get! No more Zim on TV, so get your fix here! You won't be quoting it like the show, but if you're dying to see how your imaginary friends are doing (dooming), here it is.
Zim is back! I loved Zim as a tv show and the comic gets the feel of the show right. The edge is a little sharper which is to be expected from the talent behind the comic now that they do not have to work within a kids tv show. Bottom line, as I read this I could not stop laughing out loud. What more do you want from a comic?
An awesome and amazing continuation of the ill-fated series. If you like the series, these are the same people who wrote it and drew it making the books so you'll love this. Do yourself a favor and get it. :)
Really wonderful to have Zim back. The comics are illustrated and written in such a way that you don't really miss the animation/voices, because they seem to be implied by the pages. (This speaks volumes for the strengths of the original voice actors' ability to leave a lasting impression.) By the end of the volume the stories seem to lose a bit of their punch, but I was consistently laughing throughout.
Very well done. I've been a huge fan of Invader Zim since time immemorial. Reading this book, I actually felt like I was watching the cartoon in my hands. The characters were just as humorous as ever, the art was wonderful, and somehow I even read everything in the characters' respective voices without issue. Definitely recommend for Zim fans, old and new.
