Is it just me or is the immortal…. A dumb asshole. You’ve got this kid that has the potential to overtake you someday. You can see this kid is going through a period of extreme emotional upheaval. A kid desperate for a good father figure. And what does the immortals thousands of years on earth tell him to do?

Be a dick to mark and make sure he knows you don’t trust him. Like wtf immortal maybe you could’ve offered to train with him or given him some pointers or literally any other path than the one you chose.

Immortal is honestly an idiot and it’s clear his ego dictates his decision making. Not a fan.

    I don’t like this take, it’s basically “this is how I would react if I were a character in Invincible with all the knowledge I have”. You’re the audience, you’re not personally affected by what the characters are going through, and you know way more than each character in the show. Put yourself in the Immortal’s shoes :

    • He and his team were basically betrayed by a double agent.
    • He was killed twice by said double agent, who also went on a rampage and killed thousands of innocent people.
    • He doesn’t know Mark personally, but he knows he’s also a Viltrumite and last time the Immortal trusted a Viltrumite it went horribly wrong.

    Immortal’s behaviour is a 100% human and rational.

      Yeah, I mean Immortal is sort of an asshole in general, but in this particular case it makes total sense that he’s suspicious.
