for a guy named invincible we constantly see him get his butt whooped i know hes half human and just trying to get a hold of who he is. but hes also half viltimite. ive only watch the show up to date and not read any of the comics yet. but how does a man named invincible constantly get his butt whooped to the point of brink of death? i mean heck even the dang mauler twins almost killed him? like how?

    His spirit is invincible, his willpower is invincible. Despite all the things he has to endure, our Mark remains one of the few versions of him who resisted their father.

    Oh, and >!he becomes stronger by the end as he fights more and tougher opponents while he grows and matures.!<

    viltrumites get harder and harder to kill, this seems to be a matter of experience, the more they’re damaged the more resilient they become. Over time this means that the viltrumites who fight the most become the most powerful. At least that’s how it seems.

    Mark was beaten down by the mauler twins but aside from being a little concussed he was mainly fine. The mauler twins seem to be entirely strength based, low speed, low durability but high strength. So the fact it hurts him a bit (it took a lot of punches to knock him out) is no surprise, the fact he lets them hit him is the surprising part but unless he was to tear them to pieces he has no way to effectively disable them.

    Sadly mark is one of those no killing superheroes so the number advantage and high strength had him at a loss.

    I’d love to see a version of mark like the alternate reality versions fight the same villains for comparison purposes.
