HistoryEdit
Mark Grayson is a comic book superhero named Invincible from the Image Comics series Invincible. He is the son of Omni-Man and Deborah Grayson.
Developing Powers
When Mark was seven years old, Nolan Grayson told him that he was an alien from a different planet and also the hero of Earth. He was told his people, the Viltrumites, are a race of peaceful explorers and that had come to Earth to help mankind. He was also one day he would develop super powers. Every single day, he waited for his powers to develop. The last year of high school, when Mark was working at his part time job, he hurled a trash bag hundreds of miles into the air and remarked, "it's about time".
Mark finally getting his powers.
Next Mark developed flight, which he developed by jumping off his roof. There he spotted three jewel thieves which he decided to stop. His father tried to have a costume made for him; the first one is an outfit that the hero Zandale Randolph of the Guardians of the Globe now wears. Mark could not decide on his costume so the superhero tailor, Arthur Rosebaum, told him to come back later after he had picked out a name.
After protecting a nerd from being bullied, he was sent to the principal's office, where the principal told him that he is not "Invincible." Mark likes the name and becomes the superhero known as Invincible.
Becoming Invincible
Two months later Mark met the Teen Team, a young group of heroes consisting of Rudolph Conners, Kate Cha, Rex Sloan and Samantha Eve Wilkins and helped them capture Maulers, two super-strong, super-smart twins. Invincible teamed up with his father to battle an alien invasion from a group called the Flaxans.
Mark's first encounter with the Teen Team
Previously, they captured Nolan and wanted revenge for him leading a revolt and escaping. However, their dimension's time moves faster than ours; they created devices that halted their aging but they were soon destroyed and the Flaxins retreated.
At school the next day he recognized Atom Eve, a member of the Teen Team. The two became friends and fought their teacher when they discovered he had been strapping bombs to students and blowing them up in some elaborate scheme for vengeance for the loss of his son and wife that left him. While Omni-Man was out of town, Invincible fought Allen the Alien. Instead of being an evil alien, he was really testing the champions of planets. Unaware of his job, Omni-Man had previously always thought he was evil. After talking with Invincible, Allen realized he had gone to the wrong planet for fifteen years and left. A few days after, Mark went to an open house at Upstate University with William Clockwell. While visiting Upstate University with his friend William they were attacked by a robotic zombie. Mark moves out of the area and changes into his costume. He saves a girl being attacked by the zombie. The Reanimen lunges at him and he moves out of the way, only for the Reanimen to impaled. He rushes from the scene and goes back to William. William puts it all the together and discovers that Mark has superpowers. William drives Mark to his house and assures him that his secret is safe with him. He goes into the house only to discover that his mom and father were sleeping together, and goes to his room. Not long after, Eve flies through Mark's window. She tells Mark her boyfriend, Rex Splode, cheated on her with Dupli-Kate. She then decides that she will quit the Teen Team. He comforts her until Mark's mother interrupts and demands they come downstairs. She lectures the duo on them having a relationship with one another until Omni-Man interrupts to tell Mark that the Guardians of the The Globe are dead. The next day. Mark is at his locker with William and they discuss Mark's secret identity. Their conversation is cut short by the intrusion of [[|Amber Bennett|a woman]] giving Mark a slip of envelope. They continue their conservation and notice Derek Sanders is alive after being implanted with bombs. Mark greets Derek and he says thank you. Eve goes to see Mark and the trio all talk to Mark, not trying to reveal his identity. On his way to the funeral, he encounters a villain and defeats him easily. The duo prep for the funeral with many heroes from Image Comics such as Savage Dragon, Shadowhawk, Superpatriot, and others. Omni-Man give a speech and stops by the intrusion of the Mauler twins. Invincible assures he will keep an eye on them, but the funeral is interrupted by Sanford, Black Samson's butler, wishing for revenge of Samson losing his powers. Invincible moves Art to safety and Omni-Man defeats Sanford. Mark converses with Savage Dragon for a short time and Omni-Man leaves with Mark. That night, Mark opens up the letter given to him. the woman reveals herself to be Amber Bennett,and she leaves her phone number for him. He is interrupted by William throwing a rock at his window. Williams asks him to fly with Mark and Mark complies, much to his annoyance. On a Tuesday, Mark has William over for Mark's birthday, with William departing. Omni-Man suggest that Mark and him watch a movie and they relax on the couch. The day after, Eve apologizes for not showing to Mark's party. Later, Mark and Eve go patrolling and attack the Lizard League. Eve easily defeats them and they talk after. Mark states that they make a good team and their conversation is interrupted by Robot, hoping to get Eve and Mark to try out for the Guardians of the Globe. Eve leaves, angry and Mark goes with Robot. He sees Rex and they don't say much to one another. After Mark leaves the bathroom, He looks to the crowd and notices that Rex is fighting with Monster Girl. He attacks her and she reverts back to her human form. Rex thanks Mark for saving him, only for him to leave angry at Rex. He goes to Robot and Robot announces the new Guardians of the Globe line-up. Robot asks Mark to join, but he refuses. He arrives to his house to have dinner with his mom. Mark's mom asks if he has homework and Mark tells her about Amber assisting him in his studies. Debbie, intrugied, asks if they are dating. Mark assures they are and nothing is going on. After finishing dinner, Mark goes up to his room with Amber. They study and kiss, not knowing that Eve was watching them. He would soon meet Doc Seismic, who used wrist bands to create earthquakes and likes fighting famous super heroes. He defeats him and heads home. That night, he goes for a drink of milk and Omni-Man asks him to talk. Not in the mood, he goes back upstairs. The next day, Mark talks with William and goes to the comic shop after school. He gets his comics sign by Filip Schaff, the in-comic creator of Science Dog. After the line for the signing disperses, Mark goes to buy comics. He asks the clerk to turn up the news and learns that his father is battling The Immortal. He flies to the scene only to see his father bisect The Immortal's torso. Omni-Man asks that Mark now talk to him.
Battle With Omni-Man
When Mark learned Nolan was responsible for destroying the Guardians, he confronted him. Omni-Man revealed the Viltrumites weren't really peaceful explorers, but violent conquerors. Omni-Man then tells Mark of his duty and the story of raising Mark. Omni-Man then asks Mark to join him and taking over the planet. Hoping to convince him, Nolan reveals that Mark will live much longer than humans and everyone he loves will pass away. Still not convinced, Mark refuses to join him and the two fight. Nolan punches Mark into buildings, killing many innocent people. Nolan continues to battle Mark with Nolan revealing that his wife means nothing to him. Mark calls him a liar, only for Omni-Man to charge him into a subway. Nolan reveals that he doesn't care about the planet, but Mark states he is wrong.
Mark's injuries after battling his father
Mark charges into him and attacks him. Noticing that the subway will crumble, Omni-Man saves Mark and Nolan also reveals that he will kill Mark if he cares so much about Earth. Mark punches him, only to be smacked away. He continues to pummel on Mark, knocking him to different locations around Earth. Nolan lectures Mark again on Viltrumite physiology and states that the Viltrumites will help Earth. Mark asks if they resist takeover, with Omni-Man revealing they will die. Refusing to give up, Nolan attacks him pummels him even more, growing frustrated at Mark for resisting. Nolan asks Mark after he's lived long enough if what will he have. Mark tells Nolan that he will still have his father. Nolan readies his punch to kill Mark. He decides to spare Mark and flies into space.
Working For The Government
He was to use his machine to find his counterparts and use their knowledge to "better the human race". Angstrom was being helped by Mark's old foes, the Mauler Twins. Angstrom freed them from prison in exchange to gain their super-intelligence. When Mark attacked the twins and their other-dimensional counterparts that were summoned by Angstrom, Angstrom removed himself from his machine and pleaded for Invincible's life. An error occurred in the machine and it exploded.
Afterwards, the New Guardians found Mark. Angstrom was found by a lone surviving Mauler. He was horribly disfigured but stated his plan was a success. He soon vowed revenge on Invincible, blaming him for the explosion.
Arrival to Thraxa
Mark discovered his father had a new alien wife, Andressa, who's race physically resembled a bug and had a mere 9 month life span. The Thraxans and a child, Olive, look like humans with purple skin on another planet. Oliver aged like his mother but Nolan believed that once his powers come forth he would age slowly like a Viltrumite. They were then attacked by Viltrumites and Nolan has his back broken while saving Mark. He was subsequently arrested. Nolan told Mark to read his books before he was taken away.
The Viltrumites then gave Nolan his assignment of taking over Earth and was given a 100 year deadline. Mark read Nolan's books, and discovered that his father has been trying to use supposed science fiction to secretly tell people how to hurt and defeat the Viltrumites. After being asked by Oliver's mother, Invincible took his alien half-brother home with him so his human mother could help rebuild their home and keep him safe. His mother agreed to raise him.
Mark and Amber then visited Samantha Eve Wilkins in Africa who wad been helping the natives with the use her powers. However, Eve was annoyed with her desire to be closer to Mark, and Amber being around made this harder.
Mark rushed home after a threatening phone call. When Mark arrived he found his mother in Angstrom Levy's clutches. Angstrom attempted to weaken Invincible by dragging him through various dimensions. On their journey, Mark met Spider-Man and the New Avengers. Invincible met Spider-man's family and in the process realizes he has a lot in common with him. He teams up with Spider-Man to take down Doc Ock. After finally beating him, Invincible found a portal that took him to his home dimension and saw that his mom was beaten up. In anger, Invincible beat Levy to death because of what he had done to his mother. Mark is was rescued by a group of Guardians from 15 years in the future, where Eve told him that she loved him and to tell his Eve how he felt so she can move on. Once he returned, he attempted to tell Eve how he felt, instead the two embraced in a kiss.
A Martian invasion interrupted them leaving their relationship unresolved. Mark began to read the books written by his father. He found the clues his father left him about how to hurt Viltrumites.
Later, while Mark was dealing with a separate alien invasion alongside a group of aliens called Sequids, a small group of the Guardians in Montana were fighting the Lizard League who were starting a nuclear holocaust. Shrinking Ray was eaten, Kate Cha was seemingly killed, and Rex Sloan had his hand bitten off, shot in the head, but miraculously survived. Komodo Dragon, Iguana, and Salamander also perished during the battle.
After a misunderstanding with Allen the Alien, The Immortal left the team, due to what happened to Kate. Eve returned to Earth after she discovered Mark had broken up with Amber due to Mark's superhero life and her having feelings for The Astounding Wolf-Man. Mark finally informs her about her future if she doesn't move on.
Later, Mark has lunch with his mom and discussed his relationship woes with her. They were interrupted by Anissa, a Viltrumite. Mark is defeated after a brief scuffle and is then reminded him of his duty to take over Earth. Mark respectfully declines.
Allen hoped to be placed in the same prison as Nolan so that he could save him from being executed. Invincible and Rex Splode teamed up to defeat Multi-Paul, Dupli-Kate's twin brother, who was angry over his sister's death. They learned Kate wasn't dead, just her dupes. She was secretly hiding after her supposed death. She wanted to stop her brother without taking him to prison, but when she had arrived to help Invincible she found that he had already stopped her brother and was going to send him to prison.
When Oliver Grayson's powers begin developing, he asked Invincible if he could help him fight crime. Invincible accepted Oliver as his new partner.
Road to issue 50
Mark went looking for Eve, and found her hiding in Africa. Cecil paged Mark, and told him that Doc Seismic had captured all of the superheroes and was holding them underground. Invincible and Atom Eve went to help, and Mark destroyed many of the monsters. When he fought Doc Seismic, he exhausted himself and passed out.
After beating Doc Seismic, and finding out that Cecil has hired the evil creator of the Reanimen, and Darkwing II, Mark was stunned. He beat up Darkwing, and discovered that no one knew that he was actually a murderer. He left angry. Mark talked with Atom Eve about making the biggest mistake of his life, and sees Cecil. Cecil brought him into the white room, and used the Reanimen to attack Mark. Cecil had thought Mark had began to cross over to the dark side.
Mark fights a horde of Reanimen, only to find that Cecil had another way of keeping him in check. He discovered that Cecil has placed something in his equilibrium. Mark flew away to garner help from the New Guardians of the Globe. They helped him only for the charge to Mark's brain to become permanent, until Robot blocked the frequency. Mark lashed out and destroyed almost all of the Reanimen. Cecil told Mark that he was fired, and Mark flew into him and pushed him against the wall, he told him that everything he had been paid is his and to stay away from his family. If he dared recruit Oliver, than he would kill him. Invincible headed back home, and told the story to his mom, brother, and Eve. Eve and Mark head into the backyard. He admits everything he thought of as he was about to die, and they kissed.
New Partner, New Duds, Big Changes
Mark was now a free agent who was not working for the government. He told Oliver that he needed to train him to use his powers, and Oliver asked, "As your partner?" Mark accepted and took him to get his first costume. Oliver insists on being called kid Omni-Man because his costume has an O on it. Mark receives new blue duds, which he didn't care for at first.
Mark and Oliver ended up fighting two super villains. Oliver made rookie mistakes but Invincible forgave him. When Mark arrived home, he hung out with Eve, and they kissed again only to be watched by a floating robot. The robot was a camera set to transmit to the office of Angstrom Levy who was presumed dead!
The Mauler Twins have a new weapon and appear to have take out the Guardians of the Globe. Mark suits up and flies over there, not so long after Oliver suits up as well and follows him. Invincible begins fights the Mauler twins, when they become frustrated and launch a nuclear missile. Just then Oliver arrives, and Invincible takes off after the missile. While Mark is in space, Oliver fights the Mauler Twins and ends up killing them both. When Mark arrives back at the nuclear base he sees the dead bodies, and tells Oliver to get in the sky. He tells him human life is precious, and Oliver disagrees Mark tell him that he sounds too much like his dad. Oliver asks Mark if he ever thought their father was right, Mark replies discreetly....sometimes.
Going To The Future
Since then Mark & Eve have been going on many dates, and they have come to the conclusion that they love each other deeply. Invincible has gone into the future in order to save it, and almost kills the Immortal because he tells him to. Mark refuses to at first but when the Immortal starts to reveal stuff about the future Mark loses it and rips off his head. When Eve and Mark arrive at home they sleep together for the first time.
Young Love...
Mark receives a call from Amber and goes to see her. When he arrives she reveals that her father has died and her new boyfriend Gary has been abusing her physically. Mark asks where he is and flies off. Meanwhile, Oliver is patrolling the city when he comes across a giant robot destroying the city. He is being followed by one of Angstrom Levy's floating orbs. The robot says he needs someone stronger than Oliver, when he hits him. Just then we flash to Mark who is holding Gary over a building by his leg. Mark says that even though he is out of Amber's life he still cares about her and if he ever hurts her again he'll kill him. Gary promises never to do it again and Mark tosses him across the roof into a pole. Mark finds out where Oliver is and goes to help. Oliver says that the human inside the suit just wants to get out, and Mark says that they'll talk about it later. Mark goes and see's Amber who is happy about what he did and she tells him that she's giving Gary another chance. Mark goes to Eve's house and tells her what happened and they cuddle for a while. Later, Mark see's Oliver and apologizes to him about not teaching him things, Oliver see's a reflection from the trees and Mark flies to get the orb it blows up in his hand and he says that someone was watching them. Invincible then goes to Cecil to see if it is him, the owner of the orb. Cecil tells Mark that it is not him and if he can help track down a fugitive. The fugitive turns out to be Wolf-Man.
Invincible War
Finally after planning, Angstrom Levy made his move. When Mark thought he killed him and left, Angstrom actually hadn't died just yet and had enough energy to make one last portal. This one took him to a dimension where a group of aliens healed him of his wounds. Later using his powers he traveled to other dimensions and gathered a dozen evil versions of Invincible. They launched a massive assault on the planet lead by Angstrom with the intent on not just causing damage but also ruining the world's view of Invincible. Many major cities where destroyed by the Invincibles like London, New york, Tokyo and more. Superheroes and super hero teams all around the world joined forces to fight the Invincibles. From the darkest streets of New York, Spawn faced a duplicate Invincible in the alleys, the duplicate stated the he already killed him once and he would do it again. Outside of Earth, Tech Jacket faced a weaker version of Invincible. After Mark beats one of his counterparts, Capes Inc responded to a prison break caused by one of the Invincible's from the other dimensions, but accidentally mistook Mark for another duplicate. Mark was later attacked by the Capes crew, only to have the time taken to explain that he was not a duplicate. Afterwards, they teamed up and responded to distress calls from across the globe. However, they were not the only ones to respond to the call, Youngblood, Cyberforce, the Dynamo 5, and Brit also engaged in mission set ahead. Sadly however millions of people died including Darkwing and Rex Splode and only a couple Invincibles where killed. However after their first assault, Angstrom wanted them to go after this dimensions Invincible but they wanted to finish the take over. Unable to control them anymore Angstrom used his powers to strand them in another dimension but as he did that Mark and Oliver attacked him. Goaded by his anger and Oliver; Mark was ready to kill Angstrom but he escapes death losing his arm.
Invincible War: The Aftermath
Invincible visits Eve in the hospital often while the rest of the super powered community cleans up after the war. Invincible later joins in but blames himself for much of the death and destruction, but he isn't the only one. Many of the human populace view him as the cause of the chaos. Power Plex (who chose to help in the fight) even attacks him when he goes to the clean up and Badrock has to hold him down and take him back to custody. Later Cecil bring Invincible together with Robot, Brit, Black Samson and Donald explaining that with Darkwing and Rex gone and that Immortal and Kate have quit to have a family a new Guardian of the Globe is needed and Invincible should be the leader, but Mark is uneasy and still doesn't trust Cecil and leaves. After some more self loathing a Viltrumite named Conquest shows up to remind Invincible of his job of taking over earth, but Invincible is some what glad to see him as he needs to hit something and the two get ready to fight. When the duo collided, buildings were shattered and their natural power caused a shockwave
The fight rages on between Conquest and Invincible. Invincible get in a few good hits but Conquest is better trained and starts dominating in the fight. Oliver tries to help but almost gets himself killed. Eve wakes up and rushes to help Mark, but she is killed by Conquest. In his anger, Invincible promises to kill Conquest. They continue to fight despite Mark's body having been broken and his excessive bleeding. His rage allows him to turn the tide as he destroys Conquest's robotic arm. Somehow Eve comes back to life thanks to her powers and fires a massive energy beam at Conquest that burns all the skin off his body. Invincible continues to fight him as the Viltrumite isn't done yet. In the end, Invincible headbutts Conquest over and over again until his skull is crushed, apparently killing him. Invincible then collapses to the ground due to his injuries as the heroes show up to help him.
Mark awakens in the Pentagon hospital with Eve by his side. The two reconcile with Mark noticing that Eve's breasts have gotten larger, leading to an intimate moment between them. He is extremely upset because he thought that he lost her. This moment is quickly interrupted by Debbie Grayson. Later on, Invincible joins the other heroes at the funeral for Rex Splode, and afterwards goes to see Oliver in the hospital. Mark then reveals a shocking revelation he had during his fight with Conquest; in order to truly protect Earth, Invincible must kill every villain he encounters from now on.
Back on Earth
Back on earth, Invincible and the rest of the superhero committee seem to be finishing reconstructing the cities of the world. Invincible then gets attack by a new villain called Dinosaurus. He then proceeds to rant Invincible on how he failed to save the world. After a quick fight Invincible is just about to kill Dinosaurus, just then the Guardians Of The Globe arrive. Robot then asks Invincible if he was really going to kill Dinosaurus.
Later at Eve's house, Mark explains to Eve what happened the city. Then they have dinner with Eve's parents. After a long and awkward dinner Mark and Eve talk about the prison meeting they have the other day. After the prison meeting, in which Invincible agrees to not charge the prison for 3 months, they both meet an older Oliver flying around with a new costume now calling himself Young Omni-Man.Oliver goes on and tells them that there's no one on the house so they can have some fun. While this is all happening Conquest, who was secretly kept alive by the government, escapes from the facility he's at. Mark knocks on the door of his bathroom with Eve telling him to leave. Mark doesn't know that Eve is pregnant.
The Sequids commence their attack lead by Rus Livingston. Mark answers the call first from a nuclear plant and heads off before his mother can tell him what's happening in the city. They face a new villain called Universa. She tells them that she is on earth for the planet's energy and will not leave until she gets it. After a difficult fight, Invincible manages to get her staff ,in which reveals to be the source of her powers. Invincible gets shocked since he can't wield the staff. Atom Eve sucker punches her and rushes to see if Invincible is ok. Right there Cecil enters the room and tells Invincible that the Sequids are back.
He then heads off to fight the invasion along with other heroes. The battle seems hopeless, leaving Invincible with only one choice: to kill him. After Invincible kills the possessed he quickly leaves the scene and feels guilt over for what he's done. He returns to his house to tell Eve what he did and how bad he feels and gets cut by Cecil, who ask Mark to come with him to the base. Cecil tell Mark how he feels about the situation at hand. Later on Invincible is helping Titan battle his old master and in the process, Invincible almost kills Titan.
Invincible then visits Art and tells him about the things that happened recently in his life, like watching Eve die and him killing. Telling him that the black and blue costume sometimes feels like a curse and that he can't even look at himself anymore. Art tell Mark that he is a good man and tell him that he doesn't have to wear that costume anymore and gives an updated version of his old costume. Invincible then meets Eve at his house and asks her if she wants to go to have dinner. Right there Invincible's father arrives, with Allen the Alien and tells him that war is upon them.
Mark tells Eve what has happened so far. It would seem that it was around this time that Mark helped the Dynamo 5 fight the aliens that came to Earth looking for Earth's champions.
The Viltrumite War
In the middle of a Flaxan invasion Invincible gets a call from Eve, telling him to rush over to a shopping mall. Invincible declines, saying that he is busy and tell her to see if Oliver can take over that instead of him. Eve agrees but tells him to hurry. Later on, in Mark's house, him and Oliver are discussing whether they should bring Oliver or not but Oliver was being persistent and told Mark that he might need his help. Later on their father agrees into bringing Oliver with them.
After an emotional goodbye to Eve, Mark , along with his father, his brother Oliver and now the recruited Tech Jacket, they all head off to space with Allen the alien to meet the Coalition of Planets .

After a tough battle, Invincible finally manages to kill Conquest once and for all but it also left him in the verge of death. It is right there where his father, along with his brother find him. Omni-Man tells Oliver that Mark will recover , but it will take a couple of months before he can be fine again. Meanwhile, The Viltrumite war finally started. After some months, Mark finally regain consciousness and asked his father about what happened and if he was the one to have killed Conquest. Nolan corrects Mark by telling him that it was him (Invincible) that have been the one that killed him. They all head off to assist and stop a Viltrumite attack on one of the Coalition's planet. It is revealed that there is a traitor among them.
Thaedus gets everyone ready to fight the Viltrumites on their home planet, Viltrum. Mark is seen later talking to his father about if he was going to return to earth or not. But he then reminds Mark that he could never return to earth after what he did.They all head out to space, finally reaching the Viltrumite planet. Thaedus then gets slashed by one woman Viltrumite, Thula, but Battle Beast cuts in and begins to fight her.Thragg arrives with some Viltrumites, just then Space Racer arrives with monsters that can battle the Viltrumites. Mark and Oliver fight some Viltrumites, until Invincible finally fights Thragg only to be pushed aside. Oliver insults Thragg and proceeds to punch him. Thragg grabs Oliver's hand and breaks his jaw while ripping his arm off. This angers Invincible and he proceeds to fight Thragg, only to be punched back later. Along with his father and Thaedus, the three of them charge to the center of the Viltrumite planet along with a blast from the Spacer Racer. With the blast from combining with the three charging, the planet explodes. Mark then heads to find Oliver's body, crying. Thragg, enraged at the lost of his planet, draws tears.
He rushes to Thadeus, knocking Allen and Omni-Man away, and decapicates Thaedus. Thragg then declares Lord Argall, past Emperor of Viltrum, avenged. Thragg crushes Thaedus's head and he then rushes to Invincible and attacks him. Invincible kicks him back and punches him, with no effect on him.

Thragg grabs Invincible by his neck, only for Omni-Man to try to intervene. Thragg impales Omni-Man and proceeds to talk to Invincible. Kregg, spectating, asks while does he hasn't Thragg hasn't killed Invincible and his father yet. Thragg says that all Viltrumites are needed for their survival. Kregg rushes to kill them only to be stopped and they go to hide. Invincible and Omni-Man are later rescued by a C.O.P.(Coalition of Planets) ship and taken back to Talescria. Invincible wakes up in Talescria only to find Allen watching over him. Allen states that he was worried about Mark due to his severe injuries. Mark asks Allen what is he wearing, for Allen to state that he is now the leader of the Coalition of Planets. Allen tells Invincible that he was out for two weeks and shows Mark to his father. He also sees that Oliver is recovering from the injuries(being given a new jaw, and arm.) induced by Thragg.
He proceeds to talk to his father about Oliver and Omni-Man says he should be out of a coma in a few days. When Allen gets his report from Tech Jacket on previously Viltrumite occupied planets, he begins to panic. Allen had told Invincible that there was no Viltrumite activity. Invincible goes on to say that the Viltrumites wouldn't have let him live if they didn't want to hurt him. He, then, puts the pieces together and states they are on Earth. Worried about what's happening on Earth, Invincible and Omni-Man head there with Invincible thinking about what the Viltrumites might do to Earth. Omni-Man tries to comfort his son, only to interrupted by Tech Jacket. Tech Jacket leaves and Invincible leaves the ship to fly to Earth. Flying all over the Earth, he doesn't see the Viltrumites. Omni-Man asks Mark to look over and Thragg appears before them. Invincible proceeds to attack him, and only for Thragg to grab his neck and throw him. Thragg begins to try and negotiate with Thragg. He says that he can fight or talk. Invincible chooses the latter. Thragg goes on that he wants a truce due to there only 37 pure-blooded Viltrumites alive in the universe. He goes on to say they occupy the planet, but hide among the humans to interbreed. He states that Earth is the perfect place to replenish their ranks due to Human DNA being similar a Viltrumite's. Mark rebuffs by saying that the Viltrumite will get stronger next time they fight. Thragg reprimands him and saying that fighting today will result in catastrophic losses. Mark, furious, but agrees to it(thinking back on what could happen if he said no). Thragg commends Mark and tells him how him and Omni-Man may be the reason the Viltrumite prosper again. Thragg leaving, stating that they will never see him again. Tech Jacket arrives to the scene only for him to be told that the war is over.
