In the Invincible universe, the Guardians of the Globe are a private superhero organization founded by War Woman and Darkwing. They are considered the premier superhero team in Invincible’s world, akin to The Avengers or Justice League. Indeed each member of the Guardians of the Globe has a pretty direct analog in an existing Justice League member. Darkwing and War Woman match up closely with Batman and Wonder Woman for instance. 

Having the team made up of the Walking Dead cast of past and present should be a fun little Easter egg for Kirkman fans. Of the six, only Cohan and Marquand remain on the series. Marquand portrays former Alexandria recruiter turned one-handed badass Aaron. Cohan has been a part of the series as Maggie Rhee (née Greene) since season 2. Though she exited the show for seasons 9 and 10 to star on ABC’s Whiskey Cavalier, AMC recently revealed that she will be returning for The Walking Dead season 10 finale and beyond. 

James plays Morgan in The Walking Dead universe. He was first introduced in the show’s pilot and eventually made the jump to sister series Fear the Walking Dead. His characters’ fate is currently in question. Cudlitz portrayed Abraham and continues to direct episodes of the show. Coleman played beloved comic character Tyreese. Martin-Green played Sasha and parlayed her time on The Walking Dead to a starring role in CBS All Access’s Star Trek: Discovery.

Kirkman created Invincible alongside artist Cory Walker and illustrator Ryan Ottley. The character first appeared in Tech Jacket #1 before getting his own series in 2003. Though Kirkman has come to be synonymous with pop culture juggernaut The Walking Dead, Invincible was his first ultra-prolific piece of work. The comic book follows a young boy named Mark who discovers that his father is not only an alien but a superhero and one day he will have to follow in his footsteps.

The project does not yet have a release date.
