You know, for a genocidal maniac with a grudge gotta admit.
Levy managed to coordinate like 18 genocidal maniacs who can move faster than the eye can see to a single goal for 3 days. Granted they all betrayed him after 72 hours but when's the last time any of us successfully organized18 relatively normal, empathetic, non-superhuman people to do anything without help.
Whelp.
Immortal is 100% cooked. It doesn't matter what they do with him from this point on. The Internet will not just not take him seriously, they will actively go out of their way to not take him seriously, and twist anything he does into an excuse to portray him worse and so weak that Amber could probably kick his ass.
That's it.
One Strip! One Strip!I would say he's got the Eye of the Tiger, but he blindfolds himself because he doesn't need his eyes.
It's like he knew the obvious pun with his name and did a pre-emptive nah man, those things [eyes] are for chumps move.
One thing I liked about the alt Invincibles is how they all broke bad in different ways. They are all evil — even the less awful ones were willing to wreck prime Invincible's Earth to get what they wanted — but they are all different.
For example, take the one we saw at the start of season 2. The main thing that distinguishes him is that he completely bought into Nolan's pitch at the end of season 1. But more than that, he's also a lot more like Nolan than prime Mark is. He's got the arrogance concerning his power (which Immortal even notes), the belief that Viltrum imperialism is good for Earth, and a tendency to blame others for "making" him hurt them.
Disgusted, but not surprisedAnd here the Conservation of Ninjutsu is justified, because they are basically the Marks of the first season that never bothered to improve.
Which is crazy. I knew Mark was strong (and I know we love shitting on the Immortal now) but you're telling me that Mark was already stronger than him even then (when we consider how Noggoglesible just shit-stomped him, though it's implied that they fought across the whole planet before the latter splattered the guardians).
Like, that's really crazy. Which makes all the jumping and curbstompings Mark's takes even worse. He was just suddenly born more powerful than the second physically strongest hero on Earth, and yet, still constantly goes up against dudes 100 times more powerful than he is. That's some shit luck.
One Strip! One Strip!His spirit can't be broken....you know, unless Eve nearly dies.
Then he says fuck it and leaves.
And I like Mark.
One Strip! One Strip!Well, I'm talking about during the war.
You're not wrong though. I guess the first time is a freebie, but do it again, and he'll !@#$% you up....even if he !@#$%'s himself up in the process.
But hey. Arms heal.

One thing the show didn't adapt fully from the comic — and I wish it did — was one bit from Nolan's confession to Mark about his true purpose. Specifically it was the bit where he recounts his frustration with how many disasters and threats kept endangering the Earth. His initial acts of "heroism" weren't an act to win over the public's trust but because he realized Earth would be destroyed long before the Viltrumite Empire showed up if he didn't intervene. Even a world conquering superpowered alien was freaked out by how The World Is Always Doomed.
He also admits to Mark that Viltrum probably would have left Earth alone if they realized just how chaotic it was.
