    I feel f'd up about them making you take down your invincible coverage then comics explained puts up even more in depth coverage with no issue just because he is a big creator.

      That’s wild I was wondering where it went. Tbf Danny’s coverage is almost double comics explained from what I remember. Comics explained only has his short version of invincible up. Still sucks Danny is a top tier comic channel and he should be getting more love

Or the Punisher run by Grant Ennis? Or Saga? Or the newest Lucifer run? Or the first Vigilante run? Or Wonder Woman by George Perez? Or The Flash by Geoff Johns? Or The Walking Dead?

    Definitely 8.5 and quite possibly a 9 just on that the main character is so curiously flushed out in such a way that you root for him despite his constant overweening analysis on himself, adding in on the other side you have the over confident devious mindset and sick ideals of the villans. Easily a 9.5..!!

A male needs to know how to handle himself in any situation. It pays to learn some kind of a self-defense in these perilous days and crazy times if you know what I mean. A million thank you. Take care and Be safe. Guy.

    The story was great but they could have taken it to more interesting direction. I was surprised when you said that the parallel universe plot was uninteresting but you were right. I think they focused too much on trying to convince us that he was special instead of creating a problem that he solved to shkw us he was special. I was expecting Kush to be him from the other earth. Anyway it is what it is.

    Defusing a bomb while in mid air- James Bond anyone? Maybe it was another character. But Bond pulled off some pretty ridiculous stunts.
    Charlie's Angels- Ciimbing into and flying a helicopter as it was falling off a cliff.
    Ethan Hunt from the MI series.
    Some stunts from the Fast+ Furious franchise
    The list just goes on.
    Just make the comic a bit more edgy/gritty and it would be a guaranteed Hollywood Blockbuster.
