100+ Definitions 33



Invincible #33

Low-Frequency Listener (L-FL): In this issue of the superhero comic Invincible the villain Angstrom Levy whips the hero through multiple realities faster than Doctor Who regenerates.  Levy begins the fight by holding Invincible’s mother and brother hostage. 

Invincible #33 (I#33): Mark Grayson (Invincible’s alter ego) is transported to different realities: one with talking dinosaurs, zombies, Spider-Man fight Doctor Octopus and Batman, giants, a reality of robots, cyborgs, barbarians, and a world of lifeless sand.

L-FL: It’s on this last world where Invincible unwittingly beats Langstrom Levy to death. 

I-33: Mark is distraught over killing Angstrom Levy.  Levy, before his death, noted that Invincible is careless, and Levy manipulated Invincible into anger. 

L-FL: This reaction of Invincible gives another definition for superhero; a superhero is a powerful individual still in the process of learning to control his emotions and reactions.  A superhero is not a finished product, but a being in the process of becoming.

I#33: Oh, God…
