The finale is here! Whether or not you’ve stuck with this series in the long run, if you started it and dropped it part-way through, you ABSOLUTELY should pick this issue up. This is the perfect conclusion to the Mark Waid-penned series, ending in a way that was both unexpected yet, in retrospect, was foreshadowed in some particularly devious and meta ways.
The final issue of Mark Waid’s Irredeemable arrives in stores today, and we’ve got a sneak peek that you can check out, before heading out to your local comic book shop.
BOOM! Studios sent Major Spoilers a sneak peek of titles arriving in stores on April 18, 2012. Take the jump for a look at Hellraiser Masterpieces #12, Ice Age: Playing Favorites, Irredeemable #36, Planet of the Apes #13, and Steed and Mrs. Peel #4.
The Plutonian once again confronts his nemesis Modeus while the remnants of the Paradigm discuss the ramifications of using the fruit of the Tree of Life to protect the human race from the impending radiation poisoning.
Newsarama has an interesting interview with Mark Waid, where the scribe reveals that he is ending his popular Irredeemable and Incorruptible series from BOOM! Studios in May 2012.
As you may notice in my review of Incorruptible #26, I’m a bit concerned over the nature of the crossover, which sparked a debate with my local comic book guy.
This stands as the final issue of the “Crossover that Wasn’t” as the conclusion of Irredeemable #33 is patently ignored and instead we’re treated to yet another issue of (admittedly good) exploration of the linked origin of Max Damage and the Plutonian.
Press Release
The epic match-up between the world’s greatest hero-turned-villain and his arch villain-turned-hero is here! This December, read both IRREDEEMABLE and INCORRUPTIBLE for the full story on The Plutonian vs. Max Damage and their superhero adventures. These epic new titles from BOOM! Studios are both written by Mark Waid (KINGDOM COME, THE TRAVELER) with INCORRUPTIBLE’s art by Marcio Takara and IRREDEEMABLE’s art by Diego Barreto. BOOM! Studios offers the first part of this four issue crossover in the 22-page issue of IRREDEEMABLE #32 and the story continues in INCORRUPTIBLE #25. This action-filled arc concludes in IRREDEEMABLE #33 and INCORRUPTIBLE #26.
Last time we saw the Plutonian, we had to check to see if we had accidentally gone cross-eyed. This month find out why there are two Plutonians, what the unlikely team of Qubit and Modeus will bring about, and what new science fiction explanations Mark Waid will use to flesh out his universe!
BOOM! Studios sent Major Spoilers a sneak peek of new comics arriving in stores this week. Take the jump for a look at Elric: The Balance Lost #1, Chip ‘n’ Dale Rescue Rangers #8, Irredeemable #27, and Stan Lee’s Starborn Volume 1.
