Invincible (Comic Book) | comment |
Invincible is a 2003 comic book series by Image Comics, Created by Robert Kirkman and Cory Walker, revolving around the life of Mark Grayson, who is pretty much your typical high school student, except for the fact that he is the son of Omni-Man, the most powerful superhero on the planet. Over the course of his heroic career, Mark, as the superhero Invincible, has fought aliens, joined super-teams and bounced from dimension to dimension. All the while, he has to deal with choosing a college, graduating high school and, of course, falling in love.Then his dad's species declares total war with the planet Earth.The series has become well known for combining brightly coloured superheroes with often very dark themes and gorn-laden fight scenes. Very rarely are superhero tropes played perfectly straight, often getting twisted into new directions that give a heave to the status quo. The series began on January 22, 2003, and ended on February 14, 2018.No relation to the French comic Imbattable which is also translated as Invincible, the 2005 movie about Vince Papale starring Mark Wahlberg, or Werner Herzog's 2001 film about Zishe Breibart, or Michael Jackson's last album.In 2017, a Live-Action Adaptation was announced, and is still in development as of 2022. In 2018, it was announced that an Invincible animated series would be headed to Prime Video. It began airing on March 26, 2021, running for eight episodes, and a second and third season have been ordered, with Season 2 airing from November 3, 2023 to April 4, 2024, also for eight episodes split into two batches.Now has a character page. Please put all character-related tropes there. | |

Aliens Speaking English | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_1049848f | comment |
Aliens Speaking English: Lampshaded. Played straight by Allen the Alien. And taken to the extreme by the fact that the whole Cosmic Federation seems to use English, or the "Earth/Urath" mistake couldn't have happened. Justified with the interdimensional beings. The first two times, they don't speak at all. The third time they come back they do it to seek vengeance on Omni-Man, and have learned English by studying him (it's also after Omni-Man had led a revolution in their world, so he had presumably found a way to communicate). | |

Instant Expert | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_13f7da6 | comment |
Instant Expert: The racial tradeoff that Thraxans get for their short lifespans is that they have a hyper-accelerated ability to learn, literally learning anything as soon as they try and do it. This allows them to pass on skills necessary to be a technological race when a single generation only lives for about nine months. It's implied that Viltrumite/Thraxan hybrids also retain at least some of this trait as well. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The end of the series: the Viltrumites become a galactic superpower that use their might to go and help other planets, exporting democracy if you will. They end up fighting an actual coalition of planets because it gets presented as antiquated and unfair way, seeing one empire deciding what's right as a much fairer and more auspicable solution. This is seen as a good thing since the all-powerful empire is made of good guys. Have you already guess it's an american comic? | |

Short-Lived Organism | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_1570b173 | comment |
Short-Lived Organism: The Thraxans, whom Omni-Man lives with for a short while, can survive only up to a full year before dying because of their natural accelerated aging. The only exception to this rule is Oliver, a Viltrumite/Thraxan hybrid whose Viltrumite genes from Nolan ensure that he'll live much longer but at the same time, his Thraxan genes still don't allow him to have a longer childhood, as he reaches physical adulthood in only a few short years. | |

Not-So-Harmless Villain | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_171ef47c | comment |
Not-So-Harmless Villain: Doc Seismic looks like a pushover, but he nearly took Invincible out in his first appearance. Then he engineered a plot to take out the world's heroes, which largely, to his surprise, succeeded in phase 1. Did we mention he utterly defeated Invincible in that same issue? The Lizard League. Even they admit they're seen as jokes... until the Guardians have to fight them for the first time without any of their heavy hitters. It doesn't go so well. | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: The genetic dominance of the Viltrumite race is simply absurd, early in the series it seems the Viltrumites have just been lucky enough to have found a compatible genetic structure in humanity in order for Mark to exist through Nolan and Debbie, the average case of a fantasy hybrid; later on this is expanded to a much grander degree by revealing the Viltrumites actually have super powered genetics capable of breeding with any species in the universe, no matter how different at first glance their partner may seem, as long as the race has a concept of fertilization and gestation it seems anything goes, and the resulting child will only look slightly different at first (like skin color), when they get older their Viltrumite blood will overtake any genetic trait from their other race heritage, basically becoming 100% Viltrumite in their adult years, looking indistinguishable from someone who was born a pure blood Viltrumite. In short the Viltrumite empire has potential to convert a good portion of the universe into their race at a genetic level. | |

Stealth Pun: The Official Handbook of the Invincible Universe put forth the idea that minor villain the Elephant has a perfectly photographic memory. That's right. The Elephant never forgets. Doubling down on the Elephant, it is later revealed the white man in the costume is a black man magically transformed by the amulet that gave him his powers. So he's a white elephant, fitting as he just keeps turning up. Although this is revealed moments before he IS gotten rid of at long last. | |

Deal with the Devil: At the end of issue 77, Mark accepts Thragg's cease-fire arrangement. Later on Issue 84 has him break out Dinosaurus in an attempt to find better ways to save the world. And later than that, in issue #100, Mark accepts the offer to return to working for Cecil in exchange for not facing the legal repercussions of his actions with Dinosaurus. The Viltrumites under Mark's father and most of the world governments ally themselves with Robot, even though the former is aware of his purge of most people (heroes or villains) capable of stopping him because as it stood too many lives would be lost trying to fight him. | |

Alternate Company Equivalent | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_200c8312 | comment |
Alternate Company Equivalent: The original Guardians of the Globe (except maybe Black Samson, who seems to be an Iron Man Expy) were thinly-veiled clones of the Justice League of America. Additionally, most villains faced in the first volume are 1:1 counterparts of Marvel villains (i.e., The Elephant=Rhino, the Lizard League=Serpent Society, etc.) This was acknowledged by the creators themselves in the second trade paperback. They went with easily recognizable archetypes because they simply didn't have time to come up with wholly original characters and make the reader care about them as well. | |

Cousin Oliver | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_20314beb | comment |
Cousin Oliver: Lampshaded, as Mark's younger half-brother's name is actually "Oliver"; the requisite Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome has been hand-waved or justified, depending on who you talk to, by his mother being from an alien species that ages much faster than humans or Viltrumites. His name being "Oliver" is also a reference to Ol-Vir, a Daxamite (Superman pastiche) Legion of Superheroes villain, who also started out as a bratty kid with superpowers. When he gets older, he vaguely looks like Damian Wayne from Batman...with purple skin. | |

Weird World, Weird Food: Shortly after their arrival on the Coalition capital planet, Mark and Eve are visited by Oliver and his Insectoid Alien girlfriend Haluma, who cooks for them. The result is a spread of extremely alien animals (many of them looking disturbingly humanoid) and seafood. Unlike many examples of this trope, the food turns out to be quite tasty indeed, although Eve is sufficiently unnerved by its appearance to limit herself to vegetables. | |

Captain Ersatz | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_25b5600 | comment |
Captain Ersatz: All over the place. Damien Darkblood, Demon Detective, who dresses exactly like Rorschach from Watchmen, looks just like him when viewed from the back, and has some of the same speech quirks. The Guardians of the Globe are a whole super-team of really obvious Captains Ersatz. There's Aquarius (Aquaman), the Red Rush (the Flash), Darkwing (Batman), the Green Ghost (Green Lantern), War Woman (Wonder Woman), Martian Man (Martian Manhunter) and they all die. Omni-Man acts as the group's Superman prior to The Reveal, and The Immortal is a heroic version of Vandal Savage. And then there's Shapesmith, another shapeshifting Martian later on in the series, but he's a Plastic Man expy. As a bonus, all of their profiles in the Handbook obliquely mention the pasts of their Justice League counterparts. Especially Darkwing. The Viltrumites themselves resemble the Saiyans from theDragon Ball franchise, given their world-conquering tendencies. Allen the Alien's ability of getting massive power boosts when recovering from life-threatening injury also mirrors the Saiyans. Allegedly this is a coincidence, as Kirkman was totally unfamiliar with DBZ until after he'd already created the Viltrumites and Allen. The Elephant, Powerplex, Battle Beast, Bi-Plane, and Titan mirror Spider-Man villains The Rhino, Electro, Kraven The Hunter, The Vulture, and Tombstone. The crew of Captain Pickell from the Coalition of Planets is entirely composed of Ersatzes from the Star Trek: The Next Generation bridge crew, except that they are all aliens (and have no idea what Earth is in their first appearance). They are also shown to be rather incompetent. | |

Red Right Hand: The males of the Viltrumite race all have mustaches. With four exceptions, all of them are bent on galactic domination which they believe is their right due to their inherent superiority to the "lesser" races. In addition, the villain Conquest, second strongest warrior of the Viltrum empire until Mark kills him, has a mechanical hand. | |

Thragg ultimately weaponizes this, conquering Thraxa and setting up a breeding program via an enormous multi-generational harem of Thraxan women to build an army of Child Soldiers, as the hybrids come to term incredibly quickly and then reach the age of power manifestation within weeks. It's noted that after five years, he has basically personally repopulated the entire Viltrumite race with Thraxan hybrids, despite having fought an ongoing war of attrition against the rest of the galaxy for those five years. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Lampshaded and/or deconstructed. In two early stories, Mark is recognized by his teacher even with his mask on. Apparently, masks are enough to hide your identity from the general public, but not from people who know you. The second time isn't really surprising. Invincible and Atom Eve show up at the home of their teacher, who we saw earlier knows them well-enough, and Eve wasn't wearing a mask or a different hairstyle, so it would have been easy to figure out who she was, and then guess at who her companion could be. | |

Heinz Hybrid: Oliver's unnamed twin children with Haluma; Oliver himself is a Viltrumite/Thraxan hybrid, whilst Haluma is an Insectoid Alien who looks like a barely-anthropomorphic lobster. As in, she looks like a crustacean with an upright torso and manipulator "arms" with tentacles for hands. The kids still look largely like ruddy-skinned Viltrumites, thanks to how Viltrumite genes work. | |

Dinosaurus leads the Deconstructor Fleet one level deeper on this topic: He takes issue with superheroes rebuilding cities after climactic battles for several reasons. His main concern is that they're doing the human race no favors, ecologically speaking, by rebuilding unsustainable cities. He's also angry that their superpowered assistance deprives thousands if not millions of people of jobs. It's also implied that rapid rebuilding keeps people from realizing just how frequently and horrifically this universe gets torn up by super-conflict. | |

Invincible (Comic Book) / int_33c99c49 | comment |
Might Makes Right: Invincible sees himself as being above the law and Cecil simply because he's the strongest on the planet. The writers themselves made it a point early in the series to show this Viltrumite attitude as a bad thing, and so Invincible's increasing tendency toward this mindset is an alarming bit of Character Development. Eventually Mark sees the error of his ways and begins to solve problems with talking instead of fighting. | |

Rank Scales with Asskicking: Thragg, the head of the Viltrumite Empire, is the strongest, best fighter of his people. Not a single one of the group sent to kill him gave him more than a bloody nose. Subverted when the rest of the Vilturmites learn that Nolan is the son of their previous Emperor. They immediately switch their allegiance from Thragg to Nolan, despite Thragg still being by far the strongest. Emperor Argall, they say, was followed for his wisdom, not his strength. | |

Good Thing You Can Heal: Extremely common in this series. Some heroes, many villains and all Viltrumites who aren't under the effects of the Scourge Virus will eventually regenerate their wounds, though it takes a fairly significant amount of time without medical treatment. Invincible himself had been disembowelled during the Viltrumite War and it took him over a month in a coma to recover. His only medical aid then was getting his intestines stuffed back and his father dripping broth down his mouth. | |

Thragg is impressed by this and waves off his minions who were coming to rescue him. Omni-Man refuses to have Thragg executed because he feels it clashes with his new goals for the Viltrumite Empire. | |

Invincible (Comic Book) / int_4832a3bb | comment |
Always Chaotic Evil: Subverted.The Viltrumites are originally portrayed as Might Makes Right conquerors who considered all other species slaves. Omni-Man's genuine love for his son and wife was depicted as aberrant. After the loss of their homeworld and the majority of their species, it eventually turns out that the Viltrumites are not always evil, - that their violent, deranged behavior was due to their incredibly flawed Social Darwinist philosophy that was kept going through self-perpetuating peer pressure. Once the survivors are allowed to settle in a society with a functional social dynamic, almost all the surviving Viltrumites return to normal social bonding, with only two exceptions. | |

Informed Attractiveness: In the aftermath of the Conquest event, Eve reforms her body from scratch, with Mark noting that her breasts look bigger. Eve remarks that when she rebuilt herself some "improvements" were unconsciously made. That said, her bosom doesn't look any different than usual - Eve was always quite busty since day one, the way Mark immediately notes how bigger she is now doesn't match the unnoticeable "change" in her actual design. In the extra material in the Trade, Kirkman states this was intentional, saying that it wasn't really supposed to be noticeable to anyone but Mark. However, artist Ryan Ottley did shamelessly show her cleavage off a little more than usually from that point. | |

Abortion Fallout Drama: During the course of their relationship, Atom Eve becomes pregnant with Invincible's child. Shortly thereafter, Invincible leaves Earth to take part in a cosmic war and is gone for months, with Eve never telling him she's with child. When he returns, Eve tearfully tells him that she had an abortion, feeling that she wasn't ready to have a child by herself since there was a very real possibility that Invincible wouldn't come back. Invincible doesn't criticize her for having the abortion, instead lamenting that he wasn't there for her during her time of need. | |

Art-Style Dissonance | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_57cd63e6 | comment |
Art-Style Dissonance: The series has a bright, colorful look akin to most superhero comics of the 2000s and 2010s however it's an incredibly violent comic filled to the brim with blood and gore. | |

Hero of Another Story | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_581f6468 | comment |
An odd example; Invincible frequently guest-stars characters owned by other Image creators, like the Savage Dragon, and the series has a number of Heroes of Other Stories that clearly aren't main characters of the Invincible title but are created and owned by Kirkman himself. The series evokes a Shared Universe like Marvel or DC, but this one title does almost all the heavy lifting for it. Due to the whole "creator-owned" thing, Image as a whole does an odd variant of the shared universe: there's a slightly different "Image universe" for each creator, where the other creators' characters exist, but aren't as big a deal as they would be in their own universe. | |

Enemy Mine | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_5989e3b6 | comment |
Enemy Mine: Invincible teams up with the rock-covered supervillain Titan to take out the crime lord Machine Head. Titan was using Invincible to eliminate the competition. Later Mark teams up with Dinosaurus, because despite being a sociopath he actually has good ideas for how to improve humanity. He just doesn't care how to get there. Mark figures he can control Dinosaurus enough to keep him from killing innocents...and if push comes to shove, Invincible's one of the few people with the physical strength to stop him, so why not be standing right next to him if things go horribly wrong? Mark had to team up with one of his own evil counterparts in order to survive against the only other remaining evil counterpart. This alliance was short-lived — as soon as they were safe the evil Invincible betrayed Mark by taking the remorseful, surrendering Angstrom Levy back to his home dimension. | |

IntercontinuityCrossover | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_5b351f0d | comment |
Intercontinuity Crossover: Teamed up with Spider-Man. As Kirkman was at the time the writer of Marvel Team-Up, he was able to tie one issue of that book in with Angstrom Levy's attempt to wear Invincible down by tossing him into random other universes. A single panel in the corresponding Invincible issue implies that Mark also got sent to the DC Universe and teamed up with Batman. The same issue shows Mark in a Walking Dead reality; however, Kirkman has stated Mark was not sent to the Walking Dead reality, just a Walking Dead reality. Mark has also crossed over with The Tick in the 100th issue of the later's newer series. | |

Required Secondary Powers | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_5b6e57e | comment |
Required Secondary Powers: Notably averted, mostly, by Viltrumites and other characters with Super-Strength. They rarely or never show super-anchoring, super-leverage, or the ability to keep large things from collapsing under their own weight. Viltrumites may be strong enough to lift trains, but a train would fall apart when lifted by something the size of a human. The biggest object anyone ever picks up are solid, like boulders, and even then we see rubble. | |

Royal Blood: A DNA test showed that Mark, and potentially his father and brother, are the long lost descendants of the old Viltrumite King of which Thragg is supposed to hand the throne over to when found. Thragg found out and killed the scientist that discovered it because he is enraged that Viltrum's most infamous traitors are the heirs to the throne. Eventually the truth does come out. | |

Names to Run Away from Really Fast | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_60fa92ac | comment |
The Viltrumite villain Conquest, twice responsible for the worst beatings Invincible has ever received. The first one resulted in all but one of Mark's limbs being broken (after which he headbutted Conquest into a coma and then promptly passed out), and the second one had Conquest disembowel Mark while being choked to death. Though both times, despite beating Mark nearly to death, Conquest loses. The second time Conquest is Killed Off for Real. | |

The Guardians of the Globe are a whole super-team of really obvious Captains Ersatz. There's Aquarius (Aquaman), the Red Rush (the Flash), Darkwing (Batman), the Green Ghost (Green Lantern), War Woman (Wonder Woman), Martian Man (Martian Manhunter) and they all die. Omni-Man acts as the group's Superman prior to The Reveal, and The Immortal is a heroic version of Vandal Savage. And then there's Shapesmith, another shapeshifting Martian later on in the series, but he's a Plastic Man expy. As a bonus, all of their profiles in the Handbook obliquely mention the pasts of their Justice League counterparts. Especially Darkwing. | |

You No Take Candle: Kursk, in the few instances he's seen speaking English.

Octoboss' English is probably worse, though; you often need to really use your imagination to understand what he's trying to say. Battle Beast's and later Space Racer's girlfriend Thresha speaks extremely similarly to Yoda. | |

Clark Kenting: Omni-Man and Atom Eve. Mark himself may qualify given how often his mask gets ripped. Lampshaded and/or deconstructed. In two early stories, Mark is recognized by his teacher even with his mask on. Apparently, masks are enough to hide your identity from the general public, but not from people who know you. The second time isn't really surprising. Invincible and Atom Eve show up at the home of their teacher, who we saw earlier knows them well-enough, and Eve wasn't wearing a mask or a different hairstyle, so it would have been easy to figure out who she was, and then guess at who her companion could be. | |

Idiot Ball: Probably well within the borders of Too Dumb to Live. Cecil Stedman, putting world-destroying villains (like Conquest) in Cardboard Prisons, and faking their deaths. It's especially frustrating since Stedman always emphasizes lethal force as the best course of action to Mark's face but never follows his own advice. Eventually, Mark tries to do exactly the same thing as Cecil with the murderous but brilliant Dinosaurus, thinking that he can make use of the villain's intellect while preventing him from harming innocents. This turns out to be even more disastrous than Cecil's similar attempts. | |

Arc Words: "It's time I told you where you/I really came from," coupled with a full-page close up of the speaker (usually Nolan) extending their hand to whoever they're about to narrate to. Nolan says this to Mark in issue 2 when telling him the sanitized and palatable version of his secret origin as a scout for the Viltrumite Empire. He does it again in issue 11 when revealing that the Viltrumites were actually a race of psychotic Social Darwinists who intend to conquer Earth by force. He does it again when explaining to Allen the story behind the Scourge Virus and the circumstances by which there came to be only 50 Viltrumites left alive in the universe. Nolan is on the receiving end of it from Thragg, after he reveals that Nolan and Mark are actually the rightful heirs to the Viltrumite Empire. Mark gives a modified version of the same speech to his son in the last issue of the series. | |

Tentacled Terror | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_7b7f0141 | comment |
Tentacled Terror: Octoboss, a minor villain, is a horrifying anthropomorphic octopus who straddles the line between Humanoid Alien and Starfish Alien. His head and hands are all masses of super-strong Combat Tentacles. Since Invincible is in part a Spider-Man homage, Octoboss is probably based loosely on Doctor Octopus. | |

Shipless Faster-Than-Light Travel: Viltrumites can hold their breath for months, reach escape velocity with their innate flight powers, and apparently travel between stars. Allen the Alien runs a circuit of Coalition planets, evaluating their champions' ability to defend their plant, with no sign of needing a ship. | |

Shared Universe | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_7fd142ef | comment |
Shared Universe: Has fought villains from some of Robert Kirkman's other comics, and has teamed up with Zephyr Noble, Firebreather, and Shadowhawk. In general, characters from Kirkman's other books (besides The Walking Dead) show up often — a few of them being major supporting characters, like Brit and Cecil (Brit), Tech Jacket and Donald (Tech Jacket), and Kid Thor and Knockout (Capes). An odd example; Invincible frequently guest-stars characters owned by other Image creators, like the Savage Dragon, and the series has a number of Heroes of Other Stories that clearly aren't main characters of the Invincible title but are created and owned by Kirkman himself. The series evokes a Shared Universe like Marvel or DC, but this one title does almost all the heavy lifting for it. Due to the whole "creator-owned" thing, Image as a whole does an odd variant of the shared universe: there's a slightly different "Image universe" for each creator, where the other creators' characters exist, but aren't as big a deal as they would be in their own universe. He also briefly crossed over with Spider-Man when Kirkman was writing Marvel Team-Up. However this is the result of Mark being thrust into other universes by Angstrom Levy and their universe is not shared; though they potentially still share a multiverse. | |

Reed Richards Is Useless: Averted, but not in a particularly pleasant way. The smartest 'hero' did a careful analysis of Earth's social, political and criminal problems. He devised a solution, carefully double-checking his work to ensure that Earth would become a utopian ideal. And then he killed anybody, hero or villain, who could prevent him from carrying out his plan. | |

Lawyer-Friendly Cameo: In the issue where Mark is bounced from dimension to dimension by Angstrom Levy, he crashes into Dr. Octopus during a confrontation against Spider-Man, meets Batman, and ends up on worlds similar to Y: The Last Man and The Walking Dead, the latter of which Kirkman writes. The cameos from Spidey and Doc Ock were sctually elaborated on in Marvel Team-Up, also written by Kirkman. And, of course, when Allen the Alien's flight back to Earth interrupts the travel of the almost-Enterprise-D. The crew later became recurring characters up to and during the Viltrumite War. | |

Invincible Villain | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_8f0c88f | comment |
Invincible Villain: Robot appears to be dangerously close to this (or maybe he has crossed into this). Let us count the ways: He is a sociopathic Well-Intentioned Extremist Bitch in Sheep's Clothing Villain with Good Publicity (so much of an Extremist that two of his harshest critics are his own abandoned wife and child); His first move was to kill the majority of the superheroes on Earth (which was a Curb-Stomp Battle of epic, gory proportions, killing many beloved characters on-screen); He manages to convince Mark to let him continue his villainy (a decision that disgusts Mark so much that he abandons Earth with Eve); He creates a Utopia on Earth so perfect that nobody but his more hard-core haters can say he's wrong; The remaining superheroes attempt to pull a resistance together, only to discover that there is absolutely no place to hide or run from him anywhere on Earth-he is just letting this resistance exist because he allows it; In the same issue that showcases this, he manages to convince almost all among the resistance (except the ones who hate him the most, which includes the aforementioned wife and child) that he is in the right and they all do a Face–Heel Turn right there on the spot; When they all leave, he tells the remaining resistance members that he will allow them to live for now and will wait their move; The alien governments (including Allen's and the Viltrumite remnant now governed by Nolan) refuse to do anything about Robot, because either Earth is an Insignificant Little Blue Planet in their eyes or, in the case of the Viltrumites, survival of their race comes first. Eventually Subverted, when Mark fights him in space, away from his drones, and responds to his Hannibal Lecture by punching him through the chest... then taking his brain and putting it on life support, ensuring it's unable to do anything more than think and communicate, so Robot's brilliance can be filtered by someone with a functioning conscience, like the Immortal. | |

Rogues Gallery: Played With. Mark does have a few recurring villains that show up now and then and he has some relationship with, such as the Mauler Twins, Titan, The Giant and Doc Seismic. However, the absurd power difference between Mark and his foes makes him see very few of them as a threat, much less take them particularly seriously. Even with villains that occasionally do pose a threat and have a personal vendetta against Mark (such as Doc Seismic) don't really see him consider them personal enemies. The primary notable exceptions are Regent Thragg and Angstrom Levy, who are basically his archenemies. | |

Failure Hero | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_a03b1d9f | comment |
Failure Hero: Closer inspection of his actions and their consequences in the story reveal Invincible to be this. He often makes reckless decisions and ends up paying for them later, costing the lives of millions of innocent people and making himself more disliked than he already was. Examples include his interference with Levy Angstrom's experiment which turned the man to supervillainy and eventual genocide via Alternate Universe Invincible clones, blindly making deals with the blatantly shady and unscrupulous Cecil Stedman, rescuing Dinosaurus in attempt to use his evil intellect for good which caused millions to drown from melted ice caps after it didn't work out, making deals with Thragg to have him and remaining Viltrumites live on Earth, frequently changing his kill and no-kill stances, and eventually deciding to not even try to stop his hero-turned-tyrant comrade Robot from taking over the Earth. Even when he tries to leave Earth for a quiet life with his family, his bad decisions once again catch up with him when Thragg tries to have him and his family killed. He even gets called out for this when he is given a chance to Set Right What Once Went Wrong, but selfishly refuses because it means giving up his marriage to Atom Eve and their daughter Terra. | |

Mood Whiplash: Starts off as a lighthearted teenage superhero comic, then, all of a sudden Omni-Man kills off the Guardians of the Globe in a particularly gruesome fashion. From that point, the series continues to bounce back and forth between light-hearted and somber. Kirkman has said he deliberately started it out light-hearted just to make Omni-Man's murder of the Guardians that much more shocking. Issue 80 contains funny scenes about William's coming out, a hilarious lampshading of Cut Lex Luthor a Check, a jab at the DC reboot (and at Kirkman's own difficulties keeping a proper release schedule) and Las Vegas and everyone in it getting utterly vaporized. | |

Karma Houdini: D.A. Sinclair and Darkwing are both shielded from justice by Cecil, who has use for their unique talents. Learning this drives a bitter, incensed Mark to leave Cecil's employ. A later development would see Cecil protecting Mark from the consequences of his actions, in exchange for Mark returning to work for him. Mark is well aware of the irony, but isn't bitter about it — now he understands what was going through Sinclair and Darkwing's heads when they crossed the line, and agrees that they deserved another chance. | |

Invincible (Comic Book) / int_a8c462db | comment |
Super-Senses: Invincible has to keep reminding people that he doesn't have these. Doesn't have super-hearing, at least. His father regularly reacts to threats further away than Mark can notice, although that might just be Cecil giving him heads-ups, and Mark tends to be the first to see things when flying. | |

Humanity Is Infectious | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_aa88f109 | comment |
Humanity Is Infectious: The reason behind Omni-Man's Heel–Face Turn. And now that the Viltrumite war is over, with those remaining living in disguise on Earth in order to repopulate, the various Viltrumites are shown to develop compassion not just for their mates, but for humanity in general. When Thragg had to reprimand a subordinate for blowing his cover to help fight off an alien invasion of Earth, the subordinate justifies his actions by saying that one of the sixteen women he loves was directly threatened by the invasion. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: After learning that Omni-Man is the rightful ruler of the the Viltrumites, Thragg attempts to kill him. During the attack, Thragg reveals the truth to Omni-Man, who responds by insisting that he doesn't want to rule. Their scuffle draws the attention of the other Viltrumites who perform a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown on Thragg, sparing his life only at Omni-Man's insistence and subsequently placing Omni-Man himself on the throne. | |

Mayfly–December Romance: Between Nolan Grayson (Omni-Man) and Debbie Grayson. Possibly also between Mark and Eve, which is averted thanks to Eve's regeneration into her younger self upon her death(s) from old age. Almost exaggerated with the union that gave birth to Oliver, which was between Nolan (who, as a Viltrumite, lives for thousands of years) and Andressa (who, as a Thraxan, lives for nine Earth months). Also the relationship between late teen Dupli-Kate and the Immortal, who's been around since the start of human history and was Abraham Lincoln. The relationship between a centuries old Monster Girl and the Flaxan princess counts as well. | |

Ray Gun: As a pastiche of old-timey pulp space heroes, Space Racer naturally carries one of these. Except his is more akin to a handheld Wave-Motion Gun - it's a weapon so powerful that it can punch through anything made of matter, and is what enables Thaedus, Invincible, and Omni-Man to destroy the Viltrumite home world in a single blow. | |

Issue 80 contains an obvious Take That! at the DC reboot. Mark goes to his local comic shop to catch up after returning from space and is surprised to see so many books have been relaunched. The clerk derisively snarls that "these companies have no integrity." Also made fun of is Kirkman's own difficulty meeting deadlines. | |

Anti-Hero / '90s Anti-Hero. Yes, the fights are incredibly bloody and gory, but that's just what would happen in a fight with a Flying Brick. Also, Thou Shalt Not Kill is realistically impractical, as sometimes the only way to stop bad guys is to kill them. Though this is always depicted as an absolute last resort, and not to be treated as the go-to solution for all villains. | |

Generic Doomsday Villain: These pop up now and then. Unusually, they are treated by the writer with all the gravity they deserve: very little. One notable one was vanquished by all the guest stars and supporting characters in the series working together while the series protagonist, Mark, was unavailable. It was a Crisis Crossover reduced to the B-plot of one or two issues of one title. | |

Double Standard Rape: Female on Male | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_c289826f | comment |
Double Standard Rape: Female on Male: Averted, hard. The scene is depicted as utterly horrific, and when the victim (Mark), reveals what happened, his girlfriend (Eve) is shocked, but entirely sympathetic and supportive, firmly telling him not to torture himself with the idea that he might not have fought back hard enough because he secretly wanted it. However, part of the trope is still played straight later in how Anissa doesn't basically face repercussion from in in-universe (though she does end up killed off in the end so that Mark can have his son with her without having to see her). It's hardly believable that "she is a different person now" and "I'm ok with that just never being discussed again" would have been considered acceptable if the rapist was a man. | |

Outside-the-Box Tactic: In one issue, Invincible faces “Powerplex� who has the power to absorb force and kinetic energy; he wins by effectively not fighting at all. The guy simply channels so much energy in his single-minded goal of killing Invincible that his family, who were there acting as hostages for Invincible to “save� end up vaporized, which cripples him emotionally. In a rematch, Mark switches tactics; after being taken by surprise, he refuses to fight Powerplex and just lets him vent his rage, while calmly explaining that it wasn’t his fault Powerplex’s family was put in danger. Powerplex uses up his reserves and realizes that it was his own fault at the same time. | |

Shout-Out | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Each trade paperback is named after a different sitcom. In the first issue, Omni-Man's tailor said that he initially thought that Omni-Man's powers were solar-based, in an allusion to the character's similarities to Superman. Also in the first issue we see crooks in suits running away from a botched diamond heist. Thragg bears a startling resemblance to Freddie Mercury. Mark goes to Reginald Vel Johnson High School under the tutelage of Principal Winslow In the last issue of Invincible Presents: Atom Eve, just behind her picture frame is a chibi Atomic Robo figurine. The second issue features the Twin Pines Mall. Darkwing's hometurf Midnight City turned into a crime-ridden hellhole after a magical disaster forced most of its inhabitants and law enforcement out. Cecil even refers to it as a no man's land. In Volume 7 Invincible faces off with a villain with the power to open portals to other dimensions. At one point when flying through a portal he crashes into a man in a trench coat with four mechanical arms coming out of his back, and the portal obscures a person wearing a red glove with a web design on it. This actually ends up tying into Marvel Team-Up Volume 3 #11 (also written by Kirkman) which features Invincible as a guest character teaming up with Spider-Man to fight Doctor Octopus during the events of Volume 7 in his own book. In issue 44 a student at Upstate University is wearing a shirt with Francis on it, complete with his "hi-technicaaal" catchphrase. Issue 97 has a panel with a woman cosplaying as Michonne leading around a "zombie" at a comic convention. One of the places visited by Angstrom Levy is a dimension where a virus killed all the Y chromosomes; i.e. the same ordeal Yorick survived in Y: The Last Man. Issue 127: An alien refers to Eve as his glip glop. Mark’s college friend Rick Sheridan is named after the human host of the Marvel Comics character Sleepwalker. Rick even has a reputation for sleeping in for long periods of time, similar to the Marvel Rick who must fall asleep to allow Sleepwalker to enter the waking world. In addition, his roommate Chris Powell is named after the civilian identity of Darkhawk, another Marvel superhero who Kirkman would frequently sneak into his stories when writing for Marvel. | |

Self-Deprecation: Phillip Schaff, the in universe writer of "Science Dog", is an extremely unflattering Author Avatar of Kirkman. In his first appearance he explains that reusing panels saves a lot of time and money and readers are too dumb to notice. note Duplicated panels are a hallmark of the art style in Invincible, used to show shock or speechlessness. After a particular sudden and horrifying event Shaff shows up in the next panel talking about a decision he made that was "Heavy handed. Jarring. Overly dark. Hell, even out of place." but justifying it on the basis that he owns the comic and can do whatever he wants. | |

Legacy Character: Aquarus, War Woman, and Darkwing of the original Guardians of the Globe all had someone take up their mantle after their deaths. Aquarus probably deserves a special mention, because the position comes hand in hand with being king of Atlantis — there will more or less always be one. War Woman is an unusual case, as the original was a superhero, while her successor is a mass-murdering supervillain. After the death of Rex Splode, Robot took his name to honor him. | |

Outside-Context Problem: Battle Beast. He first appeared early in the series when Mark was possibly the strongest person on Earth, at a time when no Viltrumites other than Mark and Nolan had been seen, and was apparently nothing but an Elite Mook for the issue's villain. Then he easily beat Mark nearly to death, and only retreated because he had expected a greater challenge. He has since come back to fight Viltrumites. | |

Killed Off for Real | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_cda501da | comment |
Killed Off for Real: Sometimes subverted, but most of the time, when someone dies, they won't get resurrected easily. Most of the original Guardians of the Globe are killed by Nolan early in the series. Immortal, like his name says, returns. The rest do not. Shrinking Ray gets eaten by Komodo Dragon. Rex Splode makes a Heroic Sacrifice to kill one of Evil Alternate Marks. Conquest gets killed by Invincible, although it took two tries. Thaedus by Off with His Head! to Thragg.. Rus Livingston gets his head crushed by Mark. Magmaniac gets his head crushed by Vault. Dinosaurus by Mercy Kill from Mark. His human form apperently dies too. Angstorm by Robot, so Invincible won't return to his dimension. What a cruel Heel–Face Door-Slam. A good chunk of the new Guardians of the Globe and a number of supervillains during Robot's purge. In the final few arcs, things are really kicked into high gear, as one might imagine: Battle Beast, Oliver, Nolan, Anissa, and finally Thragg are all killed. | |

Most Common Super Power | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_ce3a819d | comment |
Most Common Super Power: Parodied. Eve did herself a boob job on the verge on death using her powers. It is that important for a female superhero. And Knockout in the Capes, Inc backups wears fake boobs to help her image. Her boyfriend, a fellow member of Capes, points out that they're ridiculous, until she points out that her salary went way up after she started using them. | |

Character Catchphrase | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_d308cbb0 | comment |
Character Catchphrase: "This is so gay" when he's carrying another man (in a necessarily suggestive pose) while flying. May be said by Invincible, the passenger or some third party, for slightly mysterious reasons. At least one female passenger has uttered the line after simply realizing that the person he most usually transports this way is male. In a similar vein, Atom Eve says it while she's carrying her boyfriend while in flight, commenting on the role reversal rather than the contact. Eventually Mark starts carrying people by holding onto them just under their armpits. He still receives a common complaint—that it's uncomfortable. Both complaints usually elicit one of two reactions from Mark: Either "I know" or "Shut up." | |

Personal Hate Before Common Goals | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_d3f67567 | comment |
Personal Hate Before Common Goals: The ending of the comic has Invincible agreeing with his former Fallen Hero ally Robot and his progress with taking over the world because of all the good it's done for the planet and the Viltrumites, but still cannot forgive the harm he's caused to Invincible and his loved ones. He takes a Third Option and simply kills Robot and keeps him as a Brain in a Jar to help guide the world under the leadership of The Immortal, one of Invincible's allies. | |

Creator Provincialism | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_d68c925d | comment |
Creator Provincialism: Present since the beginning, with the agency for the defense of the whole planet being a USA agency (the base is under the Pentagon, even), but it gets worse after Robot takes over the world. Without getting into too much political discussion, it is pretty debatable whether a stronger American interventionism would be the solution for North Korea, and mentioning the sanctions being lifted when the USA put them there in the first place is equally debatable in taste. The idea of education and healthcare being made free as a result of a genius financial plan is also baffling for people who live in country where those are already free and pretty much functioning, particularly when they definitely don't have financial geniuses at the helm, making it seem that the issue is more viability and not principle. The "white room" is also a case of this. The idea of the government using chemicals to control the population through tap water comes from a very American string of conspiracy theories derived from their rejection of things provided by the state for free that is very baffling for non-American readers. | |

Achilles' Heel | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_d7639dba | comment |
Achilles' Heel: Viltrumites have few weaknesses. The easiest one to exploit is their equilibrium. Due to the fact that Viltrumites can fly, they have incredibly advanced and complex inner ears. This makes them extremely vulnerable to high-pitched frequencies. It can do everything from causing severe pain to inducing a waking-dream coma, and can possibly kill them outright. At the very least it immediately disrupts their ability to fly. Another seems to be exhaustion, especially when facing each other. | |

Invincible (Comic Book) / int_dc2c2968 | comment |
Superpowerful Genetics: Every hybrid child of a Viltrumite will inherit their powers. But more than that, their genes are explicitly "more dominant than dominant", often making their children have a higher percentage of Viltrumite genes than their non-Viltrumite parents. Humans are already genetically similar enough that human/Viltrumite pairings produce hybrids that are nearly 100% Viltrumite. | |

A Million Is a Statistic | |

A Million Is a Statistic: Omni-Man's family and friends seem to be more upset about him lying to them than him killing thousands of innocent people. Even though Omni-Man has a Heel–Face Turn later on, he doesn't seem to feel remorse about those deaths either. This dilemma would be dealt with in a future Invincible issue where Omni-Man was now forbidden from ever returning to Earth by Cecil to act as some form of punishment for getting all those people killed while still being able to work with Cecil. However, the deaths were a consequence of the battle between Invincible and Omni-Man, and not something Omni-Man intended to do... at the time. Omni-Man seemed to be more apathetic about the lives lost, seeing their deaths as proof of his and Invincible's superiority and why choosing to rule over them was the "right" course of action. | |

Decon-Recon Switch: The comic picks apart tons of superhero tropes, depicts a world of Black-and-Gray Morality, is willing to feature graphic violence to emphasize that heroes aren't holding back, subverts many classic superhero origins and motifs, and rather viciously deconstructs the idea of teenage superheroes. And yet in the end it reconstructs the genre—no matter how many tropes it subverts or deconstructs, the heroes are still heroes protecting the world from evil and many times their idealism and courage ultimately wins out over the cruel and cynical villains. | |

The Viltrumite villain Conquest, twice responsible for the worst beatings Invincible has ever received.

Though both times, despite beating Mark nearly to death, Conquest loses. The second time Conquest is Killed Off for Real. Robot | |

Reconstruction | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_e50987a9 | comment |
Reconstruction: The series reconstructs the Superhero as a force of good protecting the world from evil and many times their idealism and courage ultimately wins out over the cruel and cynical villains. In particular, it reconstructs: Anti-Hero / '90s Anti-Hero. Yes, the fights are incredibly bloody and gory, but that's just what would happen in a fight with a Flying Brick. Also, Thou Shalt Not Kill is realistically impractical, as sometimes the only way to stop bad guys is to kill them. Though this is always depicted as an absolute last resort, and not to be treated as the go-to solution for all villains. Superman Substitute. Mark tries hard to be The Cape, and it's getting very hard to stick to his code of conduct, but he's still helping people because it's the right thing to do. By the end, Mark is able to effectively balance practicality with ethics. Anti-Villain. Mark doesn't like or agree with Cecil Stedman, but he admits that with world-ending threats all over the place, Stedman is often the lesser evil. Crisis Crossover. Storylines that would be this when published by other companies have the same long-lasting implications without the massive tie-ins and Kudzu Plot. | |

Clothing Damage: This happens very frequently, especially in some of the intense fights. Take a shot every time Mark's tore up his clothing, or better, his Invincible's goggles. Lampshaded by Eve during the final arc against Thragg and his Viltrumite/Thraxan children army. When preparing for the battle, Eve uses her powers to transform her and Mark's clothes to their superhero outfits. Mark questions why he needs to wear it, since everyone knows who he is in Telascria. Eve retorts that his outfit is iconic, and laments that his goggles is gonna break during the first five minutes of the fight anyway. | |

No Endor Holocaust | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_e62dfb96 | comment |
Other than that, Invincible usually averts the No Endor Holocaust typical in many superhero comics: whenever there's a big battle that destroys buildings and levels cities, a large number of civilians die. One story arc even has the family of one those deceased civilians trying to avenge her death by killing Invincible, who they view as being responsible. Dinosaurus leads the Deconstructor Fleet one level deeper on this topic: He takes issue with superheroes rebuilding cities after climactic battles for several reasons. His main concern is that they're doing the human race no favors, ecologically speaking, by rebuilding unsustainable cities. He's also angry that their superpowered assistance deprives thousands if not millions of people of jobs. It's also implied that rapid rebuilding keeps people from realizing just how frequently and horrifically this universe gets torn up by super-conflict. | |

Wake Up, Go to School & Save the World | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_e75d4959 | comment |
Wake Up, Go to School & Save the World: For roughly the first third of the comic, Mark has to balance his civillian identity with his superheroics, first as a high school student, and then in college. Subverted after his heroics eventually undermine his ability to keep up with his college courseload, and he ultimately winds up dropping out after realizing there's no job he could get with a college degree that would pay more than what he could make using his powers. | |

Younger Than They Look | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_e9db9908 | comment |
Younger Than They Look: Thraxans, a race of blue mantis-like Insectoid Aliens, have a super-accelerated lifespan compared to humans, dying of old age within the span of about 9 Earth months. By extension, this also applies to Oliver, a Viltrumite/Thraxan hybrid, who initially matured far faster than a human, only to slow down as Viltrumite aging caused that species' longevity to start kicking in. Thragg ultimately weaponizes this, conquering Thraxa and setting up a breeding program via an enormous multi-generational harem of Thraxan women to build an army of Child Soldiers, as the hybrids come to term incredibly quickly and then reach the age of power manifestation within weeks. It's noted that after five years, he has basically personally repopulated the entire Viltrumite race with Thraxan hybrids, despite having fought an ongoing war of attrition against the rest of the galaxy for those five years. | |

Who Wants to Live Forever? | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_ea39d156 | comment |
Who Wants to Live Forever?: The issue is raised multiple times, mostly by Nolan - especially considering that aside from Conquest, Thaedus, and Thragg, he could well be one of the oldest characters in the series. Viltrumites live so long that even romantic links with other Viltrumites dissolve over time, and to love a "lesser" species initially seemed unthinkable to him. To a lesser extent, the Immortal. An alternate future version is shown to have drifted into madness after outliving all of his friends and loved ones. | |

Me's a Crowd | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_eb5cbe42 | comment |
Me's a Crowd: Dupli-Kate, and her villainous twin brother Multi-Paul. Interestingly, it's made explicit that each of them has a "number zero" body kept far from the "number one" body, which most people (readers and characters alike) think is the original, as a sort of backup copy in case something bad happens to all of the rest of them. This comes in handy, of course, when the Lizard League somehow manage to kill all of the bodies Kate creates to fight them. | |

Not His Blood | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_ebb8b676 | comment |
Not His Blood: In Brit, the titular Brit is completely invulnerable to any form of damage whatsoever. Thus when he emerges from a battle with a nosebleed, he reassures his allies that it's not his blood, but that of the alien he was beating up. It doesn't stop his superiors from deciding that he needs to be cut up and replicated. Later, after he's persuaded to return to defend the planet, we see it happen again... This time, it actually is his blood, because this one isn't the real Brit. He's actually an imperfect clone whose invulnerability is starting to wear off. | |

Invincible (Comic Book) / int_f01a1b71 | comment |
The alien governments (including Allen's and the Viltrumite remnant now governed by Nolan) refuse to do anything about Robot, because either Earth is an Insignificant Little Blue Planet in their eyes or, in the case of the Viltrumites, survival of their race comes first. | |

Evil Twin | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_f2dadf81 | comment |
Evil Twin: The Invincible War was all about this — Angstrom Levy recruited 16 evil versions of Mark as part of his revenge scheme. Mark himself barely fought any of them, though. By the end of the story, only 8 survived, and were unceremoniously dumped in a wasteland dimension. Angstrom had intended to retrieve them, but due to his defeat, the group was stranded there and ended up resorting to cannibalism until only two survived. | |

Human Aliens | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_f4aeb714 | comment |
Human Aliens: Viltrumites. The majority have black hair with a few blond/brown exceptions, but otherwise are virtually identical to humans. Justified, seeing as how they're nearly 100% genetically similar to humans. Averted by just about every other alien race in the series, however. After the Viltrumites and Expies of the crew of the Enterprise, even the most human aliens have colorful/textured skin, various appendages, and other significant physiological differences. | |

Hybrid All Along: Early in the story Mark Grayson learns that he's actually half Viltrumite by way of his father, Nolan Grayson also known as Omni-Man. While Mark did know his father was a superhero, he didn't know Nolan was an actual alien. Unfortunately, this revelation kicks off Omni-Man's slaughter of the Guardians of the Globe and reveal as an intergalactic villain. | |

Decades and perhaps even centuries pass - Eve discovers she's functionally immortal, Terra outgrows her rebellious phase, Markus Murphy makes peace with his dad and takes his place as Invincible and the Viltrumite empire finally becomes a force for good. | |

Ridiculously Human Robot: Averted, Robot can't really relate to his teammates' problems, and he doesn't particularly want to either. No Tin Man here, no sir. Downplayed in that the visible Robot is actually being remote-controlled by the (horribly deformed and unable to survive outside of his nutrient tank) human who just doesn't relate to humanity, probably in part due to his superhuman intelligence and isolation. After being cloned into a new human body, he starts relating more. | |

Running Gag | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Someone commenting how gay carrying someone while flying is. At first it was Mark with his friend, but then other characters started to comment about it. Whenever a scene occurs related to Cecil and his work with the Global Defense Agency, there will be a panel of the Pentagon's campus with a sign out front displaying the words "Parking in Rear" in big letters. Someone (mostly Allen) having loud sex in the other room, with another character being unable to sleep. Mark's inability to remember fighting The Elephant, despite fighting him multiple times. | |

Humans Are Ugly: Invoked and played for laugh after the five year time skip, where Insectoid Alien Haluma notes of her twin children with Oliver that he makes "very weird looking" children. She takes the heat out of it by noting that she considers it a worthwhile trade, given how well-behaved they are, and agreeing without hesitation when Oliver teasingly notes that she really does love them despite it. | |

Depending on the Writer | |
Invincible (Comic Book) / int_fdc4fab4 | comment |
Depending on the Writer: Invincible and The Astounding Wolf-Man have an odd case of this happening between two series by the same writer with the character of Cecil Stedman, who appears in both series. In Wolf-Man, Cecil is shown to be much nicer than in Invincible; for example, he's willing to believe the best about Wolf-Man (that he didn't kill his wife), whereas he always believes the worst about Invincible (that he's a bad guy working with his father). On the other hand it's fairly well-known that Cecil tends to hold grudges (by his own admission) and Gary has never given Cecil a reason to doubt him, unlike Omni-Man or Invincible. For the record, Cecil's appearances in Guarding the Globe and Invincible Universe, which do feature a different writer than the main series (Phil Hester), are somewhere right in the middle — Cecil's unquestionably a good guy but he's still all too capable of crossing the line. It could also be justified - if Cecil trusts Wolf-Man, and is wrong, the consequences are much less severe than if he trusts Mark, and is wrong - Wolf-Man can be taken down fairly easily, but Mark is a lot tougher, and could potentially kill millions and enslave the world. | |

Innocently Insensitive: Dupli-Kate had been something of a Gold Digger (the huge mansion and immense wealth of The Immortal helped jumpstart their relationship) and Bitch in Sheep's Clothing (was a serial cheater), but has improved significantly. She still has her moments, like when she notices that an overweight Atom Eve was shedding some pounds and wonders if it's for Mark. When Eve tells her that Mark likes her regardless, a dumbfounded Kate asks her why. | |
