Omni-Man

of how he came to Earth, similar to when Nolan mentioned his past to a young Mark Grayson. In the three-part Justice League series finale (which also premiered the same year Omni-Man fought Invincible in the comics), Hawkgirl turned on her people by discovering a weapon capable of decimating Earth in order to save Thangar from a war with another race. Half of the Justice League expressed both compassion and hatred for their former friend and voted to let her stay or resign. Anyway, Shayera went to unknown places, abandoning her rank as a member of the Justice League, and even her codename, and in the next series, Justice League Unlimited, as if Nolan was giving her a second chance, she returned to join the Justice League but was unable to continue a full relationship with her ex John Stewart, however in an unknown period she was able to patch things up. The Thangarians, like the Viltrumites

hybrid offspring. Their species' home planets are abbreviations of their species names: Thangar and Viltrum. Both have high-ranking titles: Lieutenant Shayera Hol and the great Nolan. Both were sent to Earth for years to survey Earth's culture, military, and purpose, and they didn't have to tell anyone their mission. Upon joining their teams: Guardians of the Globe and Justice League, both were very discreet about their alien heritage to their allies whenever something like this was asked of the two, even the closest ones: John Stewart and Debbie Grayson never received a proper answer. Hawkgirl, like Omni-Man, began to accustom herself to Earth's culture. Both managed to defeat their teams, while Hawkgirl provided information on each of her friends' weaknesses when the Thangarians arrived on Earth. In a season 2 episode of Justice League, Hawkgirl devised a fake story

There are more than 9000 of them! Both have grown mustaches. However, in Dragon Ball GT, Vegeta shaves it, due to his daughter's hatred of his mustache. Both come from a nearly extinct race of warrior conquerors and are among the elites of their respective races. Both have the genetic ability to become increasingly powerful and efficient in battle the more they fight. The combat attire of both races is full-body and tight-fitting. Omni-Man and his characteristics are very similar to Hawkgirl, specifically from the DC Animated Universe series that was based on the DC Comics. Hawkgirl and Omni-Man were part of their alien military empires: Thangarian and Viltrum, who are very old, can fly (however Hawkgirl has wings), are incredibly skilled, and fell in love with fellow humans who had

of evil Superman like: Superman (Justice Lords and Brave New Metropolis, from the Justice League and Superman Animated series), Injustice Superman (from the game Injustice Gods Among Us), Ultraman (from Crisis on Two Earths). Omni-Man shares similarities with Vegeta from the Dragon Ball franchise. Both came to conquer their respective Lands in the name of their races, but later reformed as protectors. They both have two hybrid children: Mark plus Oliver and Trunks plus Bulla respectively. Both faced their eldest son in a fight to the death, neither caring about their alien lineage: Mark fought Omni-Man to prevent him from taking over Earth, while Trunks fought Vegeta to prevent Cell from absorbing Android 18. Both are popular for their phrases that generated memes on the Internet: for Omni-Man "Think, Mark! Think!" and for Vegeta

Trivia Omni-Man is the first major antagonist in Invincible, but after Season 2, he is no longer a villain. Omni-Man is the second Viltrumite to betray the Viltrum Empire, while Thaedus is the first Viltrumite to betray the Viltrum Empire. Omni-Man is based on Superman from DC Comics. Like Siegel's original version of Superman (Action Comics #1 1938, McClure Newspaper Syndicate and Superman #1 1939), his people were powerful and very durable even on their own home planet, but could also easily be harmed by each other, their powers also not dependent on the sun or any other energy source. Like the first Superman, Omni-Man does not have multiple vision-based abilities, but he also does not have any of Superman's later weaknesses, including yellow sun exhaustion, red sun exposure, or kryptonite. From the 1990s to the 2010s, there have been a number of "incarnations"

Powers and abilities Weaknesses Excessively High Frequency: High-frequency noise can be detrimental to a Viltrumite's hearing. It disrupts their balance, limits their ability to fly, causes intense pain, and can lead to death. The intensity of the frequency determines the degree of pain they feel. Extreme Strength: Although the Viltrumites are among the most powerful in the universe, they are not completely invincible. They are vulnerable to entities of comparable or superior strength. Plague Virus: Developed from Viltrumite DNA, this virus attacks Viltrumites by compromising their immune systems, disabling their strength and invulnerability. The only way to survive is to have an exceptionally strong immune system and patiently wait for the virus to run its course.

due to his newfound compassion. Ashamed of his flaws, he was fully prepared to accept his fate. However, as he conversed further with Allen as a fellow recluse, while still grappling with his fate as a Viltrumite traitor, he came to understand that he had no regrets about the man he had become, even confessing that he deeply missed his first wife, Debbie, who irrevocably changed him for the better. The ultimate motivation to change Nolan's outlook came from Allen, who, seeing him as his friend, risked his life to rescue him. Wanting to help save his first genuine friend, a situation no other Viltrumite had ever faced, Nolan finally accepted his new identity, wishing to embrace life once more and right his wrongs by helping to put an end to the Viltrumite conquest of the universe.

which was familiar to him as Viltrumite. Consequently, he eventually decided to commit suicide by jumping into a black hole. However, by chance, he found a small Thraxan ship and, without hesitation, rescued them, providing him with a new purpose, as the entire Thraxan species granted him a home on their world as their ruler. By genuinely caring for these individuals without ulterior motives, Nolan regained much of his former happiness.

Although Nolan had improved after meeting the Thraxians, he still didn't understand why he felt an attachment to them when they were massacred by the Viltrumite invaders. Despite his anger at the massacre, he thought that the physical fragility and short lifespan of the Thraxian species should be irrelevant to him, as his Viltrumite upbringing caused him to view all other races as inferior and insignificant. When Mark pointed out that this was how he must feel on Earth, Nolan was speechless and, for the first time in his existence, was unable to rationalize the Viltrumite perspective of viewing lesser species as inferior and insignificant. This awareness deepened during his imprisonment; he stopped identifying as

Despite his god complex and ruthless nature, his experiences on Earth began to slowly transform him. While he appears as a distant and practical fighter, he frequently expresses discomfort with their behavior. He was willing to eliminate the original Guardians of the Globe to reduce Earth's defenses against the Viltrumites, but soon afterward, he seemed troubled by their actions. Similarly, while he initially viewed earthly pursuits such as sports as insignificant, he eventually developed a deep affection for his family, treasuring the moments he spent with them and expressing genuine frustration with their accomplishments. During his confrontation with Mark, he relentlessly insults him for valuing Earth and behaving like a human; however, his reasoning and increasing instability suggest that Nolan is trying to convince himself of his own decisions. Finally, when he angrily asks his son what Mark will possess in 500 years, the latter cries and replies that he would still have his father. This declaration of affection from his son, despite everything he had inflicted on Mark, was enough to shatter Nolan's cold, Viltrumite facade and plunge him into despair. Horrified by his actions toward his son, Nolan decides to abandon his mission and leave Earth rather than take his life, tears in his eyes as he heads off into space.

Ultimately, the two decades Nolan spent on Earth were enough to disrupt the millennia of Viltrumite doctrine he experienced. His decision to kill his friends, massacre innocents, and assault his son seemed to stem solely from the habits and conditioning of being a Viltrumite soldier. Recognizing the consequences of his actions, Nolan experiences profound guilt and regret. Even during his space voyage, he feels profound sadness, unsure of how to continue with his life after leaving everything behind.

Personality As Omni-Man, Nolan first embodies the persona of the perfect superhero: brave, caring, charismatic, loyal, and willing to sacrifice himself for others. To the typical audience, his role as a hero was clear and indisputable. In his human form, he seemed like a loving husband and devoted father. Despite her high expectations for her strict son, Debbie often tempered them. The most obvious expression of her Viltrumite heritage was manifested in her beliefs about the responsibilities of a hero, which Mark claimed emphasized saving millions and billions over hundreds or thousands, which ultimately intensified the conflicts between Debbie and Mark.

However, his actual character matches the typical nature of most Viltrumites. He is ruthless and devoted to the Viltrum Empire, engaging in numerous immoral and atrocious actions to ensure the Empire's domination of planets. Due to his race's near-immortality, immense strength, and highly advanced technology, he considers many other races weak and inferior. Smugly believing it is his responsibility to impose order on other cultures for the greater good, he subdues them, and if they object, he subdues them calmly. Although he behaves ruthlessly and callously toward the Viltrum Empire, his actions are not motivated by malice or cruelty; he genuinely believes he is acting righteously, viewing supremacy as equivalent to harmony and prosperity. His brutal nature is evident in his genocide and near-annihilation of the Flaxans and their world following his initial attempt to invade Earth. He shows no remorse for the thousands of people he has murdered, considering them pathetic. Nolan even stated that while he adored his wife, he saw her as a "pet", and explained how he was going to kill Mark to have another child, whom he could raise to support the Viltrum Empire's expansion plan.

Appearance Physical Nolan is a tall, light-skinned man with blue eyes and close-cropped black hair. As is tradition, all Viltrumite males who reach the age of 18 grow a thick but well-groomed mustache. Despite his thousands of years, Nolan appears middle-aged, with slight wrinkles on his face and a graying lower half. Furthermore, although he appears to be an old-fashioned man, he possesses an imposing presence with a robust and powerful physique, notable for his broad build.

Clothes Viltrumite Soldier Outfit During his early years as a soldier of the Viltrum Empire, Nolan wore the traditional white Viltrumite uniform. He wore it during his first years on Earth, before replacing it with his iconic Omni-Man attire.

Nolan is one of the deuteragonists of Invincible . He debuted as the main antagonist in the first season , before beginning to redeem himself as a deuteragonist starting in the second . He is infamously known as the fallen superhero Omni-Man , who is also secretly known by his adopted Earthling name, Nolan Grayson . He is the estranged husband to his first wife, Debbie Grayson , and widower to his late second wife, Andressa , father of Mark and Oliver Grayson .

He was a high-ranking Viltrumite warrior of the Viltrum Empire, formerly dedicated to aiding the Viltrumite mission to make it the sole empire in the universe, until his time on Earth changed him for the better. He left the Empire to join the Coalition of Planets in their fight to end the tyranny of his own people once and for all.
