Brit is a veteran superhero with the power of invulnerability.

History

Origin[]

The man named Brittany, or Brit for short, was born sometime in the years before World War One. He led a normal life until the day he and his mother were involved in a tragic accident. That left Brit gravely injured and his mother, dead.

Brit’s father, Brittany Sr., was abroad at the time of the accident. Upon his return, the revelation of the fate of his family left him in a state of shock and confusion. This ailment was so profound that it resembled a catatonic state. He remained that way for weeks, as his mind pored over the events that had so deeply affected his family.

Eventually, Brittany Sr. emerged from his state of grief. He vowed that he would never have to experience the loss of a loved one again. With that, both Brittany Sr. and Jr. set off on a journey that would take them to the far corners of the earth searching for the things that Brittany Sr. had deduced he would need.

Working with the GDA[]

Brit was sent to support the Guardians of the Globe when they fought the Lizard League. He arrived when the battle was already over but King Lizard shot him, making him realize that there were survivors.[1]

Attributes

Powers

  • Invulnerability: He is absolute invulnerable, thus he is immune to all forms of damage, he is immune to bleeding or loss of limb. Brit has shown to be impervious to all attacks that has been dealt to him, and immune to all diseases. Brit is bulletproof[1] and had a building collapse on him without causing him any damage[2]. He has survived nuclear explosions with no damage[3][4] and has walked through magma, which is can be 1300 °F to 2400 °F and it hasn't burned or broken through his skin or cause him any harm. [5]. He has been hit by powerhouses like Invincible[6] and Supreme Leader Cho, who is strong enough to break Monster Girl's bones, and suffered no damage.[7] Robot, a character with Genius Level Intellect, even said he knows he can't kill Brit, even with his upgraded armor [8]. Best Tiger, a character that is also a genius, has said that killing Brit would be "impossible" [9]. He possesses absolutely no internal or external weakness, essentially making him completely indestructible.
  • Increased Strength: Due to his invulnerability Brit is able to use 100% of his body's muscle mass, increasing his strength, even without training his muscles are brawny and his body shape doesn't change no matter how much calories he intakes. He has shown to be able to lift objects many times his own body weight.
  • Increased Agility: His invulnerability even allows Brit to consistently utilize a range of motion in his acrobatic maneuvers which are impossible for normal humans since as his bones won't fracture and his body won't damage.
  • Increased Reflexes: His reaction time seems to be in proportion with his enhanced strength in that he has been seen being able to intercept incoming bullets with his bare hands with little effort, and no damage.

Abilities

Weaknesses

While indestructible, he is not much stronger than the human being. Thus he lacks the offensive abilities to fight crime, forcing him to rely mostly on his mind and his indestructibility.

Paraphernalia

Equipment

  • Jet Gloves: This device created by D.A. Sinclair given to Brit further enhances his strength.
  • Jet Boots: A set of boots that allow Brit to simulate the power of flight.[11]
    • Flight: While not particularly skilled in the art of landing Brit can fly at great speed thanks to his boots.[11]

Notes

  • 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 was released in March 2007.
  • 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.
