Uber Volume 1

Product Information

The series was restarted as Über: Invasion a year later, creating a jump-on point for new readers. Invasion was to function as the second and final cycle of the story. As the name suggested, it shifted focus towards a Nazi incursion into the United States. [12] Uber opens at the end of WWII, right at the moment Hitler is about to commit suicide. A man suddenly bursts through the door telling him to stop because there is hope once more; they’ve discovered how to make ubermensch (aka super men . . . And women). And oh boy, does that change the war dramatically. Why its amazing is that Gillen did a tone of historical research on WWII, wrote an extensive 30,000 word plot bible for the series and often works real history into the fictional account. It is well worth your time to read. Though, as you may have guessed, it remains unfinished. 30 Issues were released of round one. Round two titled Uber: Invasion put out 17 issues. That puts our total at 47 for the whole series. Gillen proposed 60. When we went on hiatus he said there’d be 21 issues of Invasion to finish it off. Avatar stopped publishing anything after Issue 17 of Invasion. That literally puts us four issues short of finishing it. Worse yet, Gillen announced a little after the hiatus that the entire story would be done with issue 21 of Invasion, falling short of the purposed 60 issues. So, now, we are literally four issues short of having the whole story. 4! Oh yeah, and Gillen can’t take the comic anywhere else to finish it. Avatar owns the rights. You can see where we start to run into problems. Oh, and, the entire first cycle has been collected in trades. Invasion has only been collected in one trade, issues 1-7, ten issues remained uncollected. So, here we are.

Comic Vine Sieglinde (Character) - Comic Vine

History with Celebrity: He deeply admires Heinz Gunderian. In fact, Gunderian's theory of amassing cutting-edge weapons to use only with the element of surprise is what inspires him to do the same with the Ubers. Before he dies, he wills Gunderian all of his work and his assistant. The Bait: Razor acts as this to lure Siegfried into an ambush by the Zephyrs. Then, later, he baits Siegmund into A-bomb range. This doesn't work out as well as the first ambush. Hitler repeatedly insults and belittles Siegmund, a nine-foot-tall nigh-invincible superhuman who can kill him with a glance. He even shrieks at him in fury when he quietly points out someone has come to give him an important message. Siegmund does not put up with this, eventually killing him.We Have Reserves: By the time the series takes place, the Soviet Union already suffered extremely heavy casualties (more so than any other nation in the war) and yet Stalin doesn't hesitate to sacrifice a few more hundreds of thousands to get his own Uber army. Eye Beams: The crudest and most common use of the Übers' disruption halos. The tank-class Übers fire webs of blue-white lightning that coalesce on their targets and rip through flesh and armour.
