Image has been releasing teasers with hilarious comments that could both point to the characters as well as to their creators and today announced that Robert Kirkman launches Invincible spin-off with Guardians Of The Globe.
Invincible is off fighting the Viltrumite War, so who's watching the shop while he's away? Guardians Of The Globe, a new six-issue miniseries coinciding with Invincible: The Viltrumite War, tells Earth's story.
In Guardians Of The Globe -- cowritten by superstar Robert Kirkman (Invincible, The Walking Dead, The Astounding Wolf-Man) and Benito Cereno (Invincible Presents: Atom Eve, Invincible Presents: Atom Eve & Rex Splode) and drawn by gifted newcomer Ransom Getty -- heroes both familiar and new struggle to protect Earth in Invincible's absence.
"Needless to say, Invincible, Spawn, Rick Grimes, President Obama, and a certain boy wizard aren't Guardians Of The Globe," jokes Robert Kirkman. "The teasers released this week have been all in fun, but next week's teasers will get down to business, revealing who's a Guardian. Invincible's absence due to the Viltrumite War has left people vulnerable, and Guardians Of The Globe will answer the question, 'What's up on Earth?'"
Tune in next week to find out who protects Earth while Invincible is away as the Guardians Of The Globe teasers continue!
Guardians Of The Globe, a six-issue miniseries written by Robert Kirkman and Benito Cereno and drawn by Ransom Getty, will start its run in August 2010.
