One of legendary comics writer Grant Morrison's earliest works took a forgotten, almost laughable DC Comics hero, Animal Man and reimagined him in a stunning, postmodern series, now offered in a new hardcover!

This collection introduces Buddy Baker, a second-rate superhero struggling with real-life issues and moral dilemmas. Buddy is a caring husband, devoted father, animal activist and super-powered being. But as he attempts to live up to all of his roles, he finds that there are no black-and-white situations in life. In these stories, Animal Man is called by S.T.A.R. Labs to investigate a break-in related to an AIDS vaccine, only to learn what inhumane acts are going on. Then, Animal Man is invited to join the Justice League of America, but fears that he may be out of his league.

One of the best-loved titles by Grant Morrison, bestselling author of titles including WONDER WOMAN: EARTH ONE, ALL STAR SUPERMAN, BATMAN AND ROBIN, SEVEN SOLDIERS, DOOM PATROL, JLA, THE INVISIBLES, FINAL CRISIS and many more, is repackaged in a new hardcover. Collects ANIMAL MAN #1-13 and a story from SECRET ORIGINS #39.

Praise for Invisible Kingdom:

"Sharp, funny, and utterly breathtaking, Wilson and Ward's 
Invisible Kingdom is a world you won't want to leave."—Kelly Sue DeConnick (Pretty Deadly, Captain Marvel)

"Invisible Kingdom is the comic I didn't know I wanted and now can't live without. It's a vitamin boost for the eyes and mind, full of great vistas of ideas. Two master creators doing a barrel roll just outside our atmosphere. You want this book."—Gail Simone (Birds of Prey, Batgirl)

"G. Willow Wilson and Christian Ward are two of contemporary comics most visionary creators, and in 
Invisible Kingdom they are working together at the height of their powers to tell a stunningly relevant story with rip-roaring wisdom and mind-bending visuals. Highly recommended."—Saladin Ahmed (Ms Marvel, Black Bolt)

"Invisible Kingdom isn't just for science fiction fans; it's for readers who enjoy a fast-paced narrative that also pushes boundaries. Simultaneously up close and personal yet vast in scope. It's my kind of space opera."—Nnedi Okorafor (LaGuardia, The Binti Trilogy, Who Fears Death)

"A smart pop-art feminist Star Wars. Fans of science fiction epics... will want to strap in for the longer ride."—Publishers Weekly

"One of the most unique sci-fi comics since Saga& resonates in the present day."—Bleeding Cool

"A stunning and immersive world."—Sequential Planet

"Invisible Kingdom delivers spiritual sci-fi with spectacular visual style."—The A.V. Club
