The series was initially a 96-page quarterly anthology, featuring various DC characters – always including Superman and Batman – in separate stories. Comics historian Les Daniels noted that “pairing Superman and Batman made sense financially, since the two were DC’s most popular heroes”. When superheroes fell out of vogue in the early 1950s, DC shortened the size of the publication to that of the rest of its output, leaving only enough space for one story; this led to Superman and Batman appearing in the same story together starting with World’s Finest Comics #71 (July 1954). The title often depicted Batman gaining superpowers as a way to avoid having him be overshadowed by Superman. Lex Luthor and the Joker first joined forces in issue #88 (June 1957).
After Bruce Banner’s death during Civil War II and subsequent resurrection during the events of Avengers: No Surrender, the Devil Hulk suppressed the rest of Banner’s personalities and became the “dominant” Hulk. Now calling themselves the “Immortal Hulk”—due to it manifesting at night even if Banner is killed during the day and apparently unable to be killed itself—the collective personalities reveal during a conversation with Doc Samson that the Immortal Hulk actually embodies Banner’s desire for a protective father figure, and that Banner’s inability to “imagine love without pain” is why he had previously perceived it as being a malevolent, Sadistic entity.

The Invisibles was created and scripted by Scottish writer Grant Morrison, and drawn by various artists throughout its publication.

For most of the series, the team includes leader King Mob; Lord Fanny, a transgender Brazilian shaman; Boy, a former member of the NYPD; Ragged Robin, a telepath with a mysterious past; and Jack Frost, a young hooligan from Liverpool who may be the next Buddha. Their enemies are the Archons of the Outer Church, interdimensional alien gods who have already enslaved most of the human race without their knowledge.
