‘Invincible’ has been renewed for Season 4 at Prime Video, creator Robert Kirkman revealed at Comic Con
He’s incredibly powerful for an earthling. He’s a weak viltrumite. Ircc viltrumites get stronger with age until there’s a steep decline, and he’s around 20. I’m pretty sure Nolan is close to 1000, and hasn’t hit his decline yet. The whole season we watched him get beat up while he tried to do the right thing. That’s largely the theme of the story. Doing the right thing is often harder than not. I loved the comic. I really like kurtzman as a comic writer. Invincible is his love letter to the super hero genre. Later storielines play with a lot of tropes in fun ways. If it’s not your thing though, maybe just drop it?
And yet, in the series, he beats this lady vitrumite when apparently he stops holding back, which is absurd considering how many times earth was close to being destroyed and he ‘held back’. This is my issue, at least from what I saw, he either is super strong and holds back all the time or his power changes with the moon
Key point here is that he lost decisively to the pony tail, and was wrecked by Anissa. He momentarily held his own against a relatively weak, and past her prime viltrumite, and didn’t stand a chance against an elite like Anissa. @John_McMurray also makes a good point about Mark’s abilities.
However, I will concede that this is a piece of pop culture, and you shouldn’t have to be a big fan of the comics in order to understand why the cartoon isn’t inconsistent. THAT is bad writing.
