Invincible #95
Low-Frequency
Listener (L-FL): Themes of duality and monsters and robots and empires
and lovers continue in this issue of Invincible. The pages ambulate through Robot and Monster
Girl’s story with all but four pages of the book.
Invincible #95
(I#95): The story on Flaxan depicts Robot and Monster Girl’s continual
climb to political power. Through
snippets of time readers witness the growth of their regime and the growth of
Monster Girl’s human body.
L-FL: The panels also show the passing of passion
as Robot becomes more and more preoccupied with the problems and demands of
governing the Flaxan civilization. This
estrangement, along with Robot’s brutal treatment of the past Flaxan royal
family, contributes to Monster Girl hooking up with one of the members of the
royal family (in her monster form).
I#95: The
issue ends with Monster Girl telling her actions to Robot and the secret
revelation that Monster Girl’s paramour is pregnant.
L-FL:
After this reveal we flash forward to the present Flaxan invasion of Earth where
Monster Girl learns she has a son and that the heroes currently attack
him. The action bouncing around in the
panels of these pages suggest a definition of superhero as one capable of
recognizing and admitting when he steps from his selected ethical selection.
I#95: Let’s
finish this.
