Invaders

Chip Zdarsky and Alanna Smith co-wrote this 12-issue Marvel series from 2019–2020, reuniting the classic World War II-era Invaders—including Captain America, Namor, and the original Human Torch—in a modern-day context. Butch Guice and Carlos Magno provided the art, grounding the team in a story that explores the lingering scars of their past and the shifting allegiances that come with age. This run matters for its thoughtful, character-driven take on legacy heroes, examining what it means to be a soldier when the war is long over.
