I read and loved the Invaders as a kid. In Wakanda Forever, the film fails whenever it cuts from Wakanda to the Atlantis characters, though. - David Feb 1, 12:42 20

        Just watch the film. You can see for yourself. -- nm - David Feb 1, 12:59 6
        
        Yeah - he was just "meh" for me. I dont know how else to describe it. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Feb 1, 13:00 5
