Brit is a superhero appearing in comic books published by Image Comics. He first appeared in Brit (July 2003), and was created by Robert Kirkman and Tony Moore.
In November 2023, the Brit storyline of Donald Ferguson (voiced by Chris Diamantopoulos) learning he is an android was adapted to second season of the Amazon Prime Video adult animated superhero series Invincible.
Publication history
Brit starred in three one-shots: Brit (July 2003), Brit: Cold Death (December 2003), Brit: Red, White, Black and Blue (August 2004). Robert Kirkman wrote the three one-shots with Tony Moore illustrating the first and second issue and with Cliff Rathburn on the third. The one-shots have been collected in a trade paperback and were released in March 2007. The Invincible character Donald Ferguson made his debut in the first one-shot and Cecil Stedman in the second.
In August 2007, Brit was launched as an ongoing, full-color series written by Bruce Brown and features Rathburn's debut as an ongoing series artist. The series was overseen and edited by Kirkman. As of the second issue, Andy Kuhn came aboard as the series' breakdown artist. In the seventh issue, Rathburn was replaced by Nate Bellegarde as the new artist. The series expanded Brit's universe by introducing his brother and Sister and also revealed the origin of his powers.
The series was brought to a close with issue #12, because, according to Kirkman, "the book sells a fraction of what Invincible, The Walking Dead and The Astounding Wolf-Man sell. But I could have kept it going. I blame a horrendous shipping schedule for the low sales... something that I must shoulder the bulk of the blame for".
Brit became the first member of the newly reformed Guardians of the Globe in a six-issue mini-series starting in August 2010. He and his supporting characters remained a part of the core cast in the six-issue Vol 2 followup, the twelve-issue sequel Invincible Universe and continued to appear the in the main Invincible comic until its end.
