Legends Live Again! The original Invaders (Captain America , Bucky , Human Torch , Toro , and the Sub-Mariner) return in a new story by the award-winning team behind EARTH X, Justice, and Project Superpowers. The greatest super-team of World War II finds themselves transported from the battlefields of the Second World War to a future they never imagined! Now, the Invaders find themselves confronted by two teams of Avengers who want desperately to believe these heroes are who they say they are, while Tony Stark faces his greatest challenge since Civil War as he must deal with the "return" of Steve Rogers. Confronted by a world they barely recognize, the Invaders will have to show two teams of the Earth's Mightiest Heroes just what kind of power, courage, and sheer determination it took to defeat the forces of unrelenting evil in the Twentieth century. In fact... they may just have to do it again in the Twenty-First! Collects Avengers/Invaders #1-12

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended for Fans of The Invaders

I love The Invaders, and I really enjoyed this series. We get the opportunity to see how the Invaders fare in the present day, and how some of the Avengers fare back in the throes of World War II. The artwork is fantastic and it's overall a pretty fun ride. I'd definitely recommend it to any Invaders fan.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Invaders Return
Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2010
What happens when the Invaders (Captain America, Bucky, Human Torch, Toro and Submariner) enter a rift in time to meet today's Avengers? How will they return to their past without destroying the present? What will happen when the 1940s Captain America meets Winter Soldier /Captain America? Namor meets himself as the Submariner? Avengers / Invaders presents this compelling scenario, set after the Civil War and Captain America's death.

This is actually quite an epic feast. I usually have niggling doubts about past Marvel characters making their way into the present, but Avengers / Invaders presents Marvel's top characters equally in top form. And why not? Captain America and Namor have long been Marvel stalwarts. And the Invaders as we see, were yesterday's Avengers.

Fortunately, the Invaders don't end up as hokey representations of the past (the 70s series was good but this takes them to a whole different level) and the focus of the story is really about them and the moral choices they have to confront. They do not end up as quaint relics from a bygone era.

The storytelling is excellent mainly because the writers (including Alex Ross) focus on the human core of our heroes. For example, Bucky meets himself as the ex-Winter Soldier / Captain America - triggering a mindbender. How do you deal with your own existence and issues of life and death - when larger problems are at stake?

There are little technical umms however. Stephen Sadowski's pencils are right on (as seen in the included sketches), but something gets lost in the inks and colours. Still, the story doesn't suffer.

Worth the price of admission for Alex Ross's sketchbook - he is truly the most epic superhero artist ever. Every tableaux looks like heroes about to enter Valhalla, Asgard, etc. His hyperrealistic work burns to the soul. The man's covers and variants - which I don't usually gush about - are something to behold...

Reviewed in Germany on January 23, 2015

Not only a very nice read for fans of the Invaders, but also a very intriguing companion read to Brubaker's vol. 5 of Captain America, especially the Death of Cap and the Reborn arcs (as it is situated somewhere between the two, chronologically). Not just a fun read with adventure and kaboom, but also a very engaging reflection on the characters, esp. Cap, Tony, and Bucky.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad at all

Interesting but sometimes too stiff. The meeting of heroes from 2 different times looks in the end of the book too strange.
