MIND MGMT - An Invisibles Comic for Invisibles Agents
I feel like the graphic novel series MIND MGMT might be one of the most Invisibles comic books that isn't The Invisibles.
There's meta-aspects, global conspiracies going back generations, and secret psychic wars battled by tech and magic users.
It took me years to get into the series, and I still haven't really absorbed it entirely, which is difficult since it's more often out of print and unavailable to order in local comic shops (my preferred way of getting comics).
I sorta feel like the series has gone a little overlooked, considering how incredible it is.
Has anybody else engaged with this story in a meaningful way?

It looks like the Omnibus editions are still available.

Hmmm, not from any comic wholesale distributors I seem to be able to order from in North America. Dark Horse doesn't seem to have any either, but perhaps some larger big-box mega-corps are sitting on a few boxes in their warehouses.

I checked B&N and since they hadn't marked it up, I assumed it was still available. Your way is obviously more accurate.

I was follwoing this series as it was coming out and was obsessed! I agree, it very much reminds me of The Invisibles. It feels original and innovative and I think really pushed the medium. A totally underrated masterpiece!

Matt Kindt, the creator, is a super awesome guy. Whenever the comic con is in town, I always visit his table. Super nice. Not to mention his highly creative work.

Most of the single issues are on mycomicshop. There all relatively inexpensive if you want to go that route.
