100+ Definitions 46



Invincible #46

Low-Frequency Listener (L-FL): A definition of superhero includes a being who strives to reach his best potential even though the hero’s present skill level exceeds all others on the planet.

Invincible #46 (I#46):  A fine ideal trait to add to the definition.  This issue also includes the original version of Dupli-Kate revealing her safeguarded original form to the Immortal (who is living in some harsh snow-clad mountainside).  The scene swiftly shifts to Invincible bench pressing about 400 tons to gear up for his fight with his Viltrumite replacement.

L-FL: The action continues when Invincible and Rex-Splode travel to the Smithsonian to halt some time-traveling thieves (Fightmaster and Drop Kick) suggestive of the Double-Dragon brothers.  The capture of the martial-artist time-sledders spoils quickly when Multi-Paul (Dupli-Kate’s brother) attacks Rex-Splode.  Multi-Paul blames Rex-Splode for his sister’s death.  The battle ends when Dupli-Kate and the Immortal appear.  The Double-Dragonesque brothers escape into the future with the Declaration of Independence.  The setting shifts to show that Omni-Man has recovered his full strength and health and thus is ready for execution.  

(I#46):  Soon, very soon, for the disgrace you’ve cause us, you’ll be put to death!
