26 years ago a comic that was equal parts CSPAM, 4chan, wierd Twitter and Shakespeare emerged. Was it prescient? Was it cringe? Each day we read an issue and post about it itt https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/The-Invisibles-1994 today we read issue 1 and you post whatever dumb poo poo about it you want

drat it's been a long time since I read this. I like how they never explain what happened to John A Dreams e: wtf Mr Six assigns a loving 24 page paper due within a week, that's insane. this comic is completely unrealistic indigi has issued a correction as of 02:47 on Feb 5, 2021 |

It's wierd how differently these panels hit now because today the idea of forced sociological conformity being a goal of these sinister forces doesn't quite ring true but the reconcilitation to being a cog in the status quo definitely does. Really like that our intro to Robin is her bitching about tarot and they make it super obvious but this is such a great Dane moment, that he fucks up the expected order just by being there and existing, legit think theres a metaphor for trans people in those panels next issue is https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/The-Invisibles-1994/Issue-2?id=42916 you should probably read it and post whatever dumb thoughts it makes you think about
