Talk:The Invisibles

message: As it stands (02 December 2005) I think it is an excellent summary of the series -- lucid and informative. I've spent the last week re-reading The Invisibles from start to finish, and it STILL took this article to help me decipher the last twelve issues. I'm not sure where the idea that John = Quimper comes from, but that's part of the fun, isn't it? Good work all, and thanks!
Thanks.I think i speak for everyone who has worked on this and say it's good to see it's so appreciated.Logan1138 12:57, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  An excellent article - much appreciated 

message: The section is a nice idea but it might be a better idea to create a seperate page for them to be listed as such. It doesn't seem neccessary to list every character in such a way. Plus a seperate page could be better spoiler protected. Thoughts?Logan1138 15:25, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Characters

message: It would be nice to have some analysis on the philosophies presented in the series, the illusion of human struggle and the subjectiveness of reality and the inevitability of the future and the search for freedoms and all that. I'd do it but I'd immediatley fall into endless run-on sentences with pop journalism sentiments and heavy bias. :)
I'd do it, too, but I have no idea how to word any of it. ;)
If it us added, then I suggest it is included in an "anlysis" section after the plot summaries. Solofire6 18:50, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Invisible Kingdom 

message: There are a lot of references to popular culture and conspiracy theories in particular.  Should a page be made for such things - especially those that aren't the center of the plot ?  Like the inclusion of Rennes-le-Chatteau.  Or real life people who appear or are mentioned, such as the scene with John Lennon and Stuart Sutcliffe and how Princess Di refused to give birth to the Outer Church's new king thing. Thoughts?

thread_title:  Pop Culture Reference 

message: I'd argue the phrasing of what members of the team are active at the end of the series, since at that point the entire reality collapses in the supercontext. 6_9 Invisible Queen 12:08, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Active status?

message: I was wondering if anyone wanted to get this a peer review and eventually up to GA or even FA status? I think the series definitely deserves it and the article is already pretty good. Atropos 04:37, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Peer Review, Good Article, Featured Article?

message: i am removing List of Invisibles Characters from the :Category:Fictional anarchists  because the article should be included there, not the list of caracteres. If you consider that they are not anarchists, please remove it, i don't know anything about this comic. I'm also leving a not in Talk:List of Invisibles Characters, thanks --Cacuija (my talk) 02:06, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

message: How can there be an article of such length about The Invisibles with no mention of Gnostic ideas? 193.91.181.142 23:12, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That's a good point; some of the gnostic influences are screamingly obvious.  Has there been any academic work done on the series yet?  That would provide a nice way to source a section on gnosticism.  --Starwed 10:51, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

text: If only to disclaim it - KM describes gnosticism as misguided in the last issue.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.168.8.193 (talk) 17:58, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Gnostisism 

message: Most of the analysis is verified by the series itself.
Exactly. For example, I'm sure Helga's translation of the 64-letter alphabet is seen as unverified. It's not stated that by learning the 64-letter alphabet she becomes enlightened, but it is stated earlier on in the series. Both Sir Miles and Cell 23 say that the 23-letter alphabet limits human ability to express abstract thought since they cannot properly name/describe the reality of the world they inhabit. The Invisibles see reality for what it is briefly when Cell 23 exposes them to words derived from the 64-letter alpabet in Counting to None. Plus, the Grant Morrison interview in Anarchy For the Masses: The Disinformation Guide to the Invisibles confirms a lot of what is said in this article. Solofire6 07:47, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Invisibles1.jpg

message: In Volume 2, Issue 3 appears as a comic book King Mob is reading in issue 4, Mob even insults the writing. I think this is noteable, especially given the whole 'nature of reality' Grant has done. Lots42 03:18, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

 that the complete INVISIBLES OMNIBUS will be published in Summer 2012. Should this be mentioned in the article, or do we wait until the publication happens? Madam Fatale (talk) 16:28, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

message: In my collected vol.1 edition, the title of the first arc is given as "Dead Beatle$." This alternate title should probably be mentioned.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:642:C481:4640:35CD:6FCE:7F79:2E8E (talk) 06:02, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
