Mark Stanger, CEO of 5th Planet Games, commented: “The Invincible IP is stronger than ever. The initial reception to Invincible VS is stellar news for 5th Planet Games and Skybound; and this is just the beginning, with DLC releases and updates from Quarter Up planned, as well as upcoming community activations and tournaments for players in the months ahead. We look forward to being part of the continued success of the game, and the IP.” The Invincible comic has sold more than 5 million books since its debut in 2003.
