Invincible #64 (2009) — 1st Printing | Robert Kirkman & Ryan Ottley | Image Comics

Published by Image Comics in July 2009, Invincible #64 is the explosive conclusion of the Conquest story arc, one of the most brutal and memorable battles from Robert Kirkman’s original Invincible series. The issue was written by Robert Kirkman, with artwork by Ryan Ottley, inks by Cliff Rathburn, colors by FCO Plascencia, and lettering by Rus Wooton.

Why This Issue Matters

• Conclusion of the Conquest Story Arc: The devastating battle between Mark Grayson / Invincible and Conquest reaches its violent conclusion in this issue. Conquest, the powerful veteran Viltrumite introduced in #61, pushes Mark through one of the most physically punishing confrontations of the entire series.
• Invincible War Aftermath: The story takes place immediately following the destruction of the Invincible War, leaving Mark already battered before his confrontation with Conquest reaches its climax. Image Comics officially promoted the issue as “Invincible War: Aftermath.”
• Major Conquest Issue: Conquest became one of the most recognizable and dangerous Viltrumites in the Invincible universe, making the issues surrounding his first major battle with Mark an especially memorable portion of the series.
• Lower-Order Era: Key Collector reports approximately 15,525 copies ordered by retailers, reflecting the comparatively modest distribution of Invincible during this period compared with many mainstream superhero titles.
• Original First Printing: This listing is for the regular first-print edition, featuring the memorable Ryan Ottley and FCO Plascencia cover.

Creative Team

Robert Kirkman writes the issue, with Ryan Ottley providing the dynamic pencils that became inseparable from the visual identity of Invincible. Cliff Rathburn provides inks, FCO Plascencia colors, and Rus Wooton lettering. Ottley and Plascencia are credited for the regular cover.

Invincible #64 stands as an important chapter from the original Image Comics series—not because of a new character debut, but because it delivers the climactic conclusion to the first Conquest battle and represents one of the defining confrontations between Mark Grayson and the Viltrumite Empire.

For collectors of Invincible, Robert Kirkman, Ryan Ottley, Conquest, Viltrumite appearances, or the original Image Comics series, #64 is a memorable issue from one of the title’s most celebrated stretches.
