Invincible

That clenched hand. It's f*%#ing on! Rematch baby! Mark is gonna knock this punk out.
In the old fight, he had never fought a Viltrumite before, but now he has tangled with the best of them. The old man won't know what hit him.

Except Mark is in his younger, i.e. weaker, body at this point. It should still be a better fight since his mind is much more experienced now, but I suspect Nolan is still just way too much of a physical mismatch for him in his younger body.

IS it me or does anyone find it odd that Invincible is skipping the month of January 2016 when the Image solicts for that month were released ?

Invincible has always taken breaks. This current arc ends in December. Looks like we have a hiatus before the next arc. I think Kirkman mentioned in a letters column that they will be using the same release schedule Saga does, of putting out enough issues for a trade, then taking a break to regroup for the next arc.

If Nolan fights Mark right at the beginning of #125, he'll also be doing it with all the Guardians of the Globe still alive, which would tip his hand to them. I know he beat them pretty easily last time, but he caught them off guard, you figure they'd have to do a little better with time to prepare. And if Nolan doesn't finish the job, all Invincible really needs is a few hours to tell Robot about Viltrumite weaknesses or go find Angstrom Levy. I doubt Nolan will actually fight Mark, but it could get real interesting real quick.

Yeah, so many different ways for this to go now that Mark knows what happened the first time. Really interested to see how it plays out.

It musta'vs been weird for Mark seeing Eve with another man.

Really considering what Robot does in the Future....I wouldnt give him any info on weaknesses

Very true. He seemed to handle it okay but that must be pretty painful.

I feel like Mark isn't thinking this through as well as he thinks he is, If he manages to succeed in stopping his father from trying to take over the world that already means no Oliver.

i probably asked this question before, and i will probably feel like an idiot asking again if i already did...

is Mark portrayed as a Hispanic man or a Caucasian man..because some artwork it looks like he can fit either category?

Caucasian.

Yes, yes, and yes. This issue was everything I wanted. I told y'all Mark would kick the old man's ass! Put down like a chump. A really strong, dangerous, terrifying chump.
If we didn't know Mark's dad turns good down the line, I would think he was full of crap with his speech at the end, though. I still kind of think he is. Mark's dad had to truly learn for himself through making very hard, painful choices, that he was willing to betray the Viltrimute empire. Those dopes are going to let him out and he will start WWIII.
I have no clue if Mark will goback to the present after this, what (if anything) will be changed, or what this reboot even means. I really hope nothing changes, and this is just a throwback to old school Invincible, using a Reboot gimmick to, once again, satirize Marvel comics.

I wish the new Iron Man comic wasn't called Invincible Iron Man, it's clogging the search results when I look for this thread lol

Well, he used his brain to get the Guardians on his side to win the fight, so I suppose he won by being smart. He certainly wasn't physically handling him. In fact, if the Green Ghost hadn't done whatever internal damage he did to Nolan, Nolan was pretty easily manhandling everyone in the room including Mark. I was actually impressed that Mark had a workable plan in place to take Nolan down.

Mark musta'vs forgotten about Oliver.

Was also a little surprised/disappointed that there wasn't any mention or celebration of what is usually considered a milestone type issue number (#125).
