I never read the comics, so my only impressions of him were from Season 1. Even in Season 1 not much was disclosed about him, but the dude is Abraham Lincoln. I always thought of him as being wise, amiable and good natured. Now he just kind of seems like an asshole, and that whole hooking up with Kate thing definitely brought his moral code down a few pegs in my eyes. I can’t blame his misgivings about Invincible, but why is he a jerk to everyone else? Maybe you just stop caring after a couple millennia.

    Ignoring the ethics of a 150,000 year age gap. I’m most disappointed at the Immortal’s lack of leadership.

    It’s supposed to be his M.O., so he should understand how unacceptable and counterproductive it is to sleep with a subordinate shortly after assuming leadership over the group. It feels like kind of a character betrayal for what I’ve been lead to believe about him.

    I don’t blame him for wanting to get laid as a response to dying twice by Omniman. But he’s the Immortal. In the Invincible Universe, I’m pretty confident he could arrange to have sex with 8-10 willing women at once.

      I mean i would start to say that once you pas a certian lifespan and still are physically young (like somewhere past 739 years old but your body is around 40) age as a concept kinda loses its meaning. And since kate is a adult i really dont get why people are being weird about it. Like i could get the argument that you dont shit where you eat but somebody saying: “he should get somebody from his own age” is a bit weird.
