Kid Omni-Man quotes from Invincible

[confronting the Flaxans in their home-planet] You don't seem to understand. Earth isn't yours to conquer. [he then proceeds to savagely lay waste on the Flaxans' world]

It's me, Mark. It's just me. This isn't how I wanted to do this, but I don't have a choice. It's time for you to know where I really come from: [flashback set in Viltrum plays; voice over] I am from Viltrum, but it's not the planet I've told you about: We have created a perfect civilization, but it took all of our strength, determination, and courage to get there. [flashback shows the Viltrumites battling and killing each other] In order for our people to reach their full potential, we had to remove the weak from our society. It was a long and difficult process. [next scene shows numerous Viltrumites dead, with the strongest of them, including Conquest, standing victorious] When it was over, our population was cut in half but what emerged from the ashes was unstoppable. [next scene shows a Viltrumite fleet in space] By the time I was born, Viltrum was already the greatest empire in our galaxy. We decided to make it the only empire in our galaxy. [next scene shows the Viltrumites battling and killing other aliens, and conquering their worlds] Once I was old enough, I joined the war effort. It was hard, but I believe in our cause. Some species resisted, of course, but no one could withstand us for long. Soon, our empire encompassed thousands of planets, but as territory grew, our forces were stretched thin, and our expansion stopped. [a group of Vitrumites are shown discussing] We needed a better, more efficient way to conquer worlds. [in another scene, Nolan is with a group of Vitrumite agents standing being monitored by their one-eyed general] Our most trusted officers were each given a planet to weaken by themselves. I was one of those lucky few. [Flashbacks show Nolan flying to Earth, and a young Mark riding a bike with Nolan and Debbie watching him; voice over] I couldn't tell your mother why I was here. [flashback ends] But that time's come to an end, and now, we need to get Earth ready to join the Viltrum Empire.

You aren't listening, Mark! My time here has been a speck in the span of my life. You don't know me. I will burn this planet down before I spend another minute living among these animals! [Invincible punches him, but he shrugs it off] Please. [trades several more blows with him] I was wrong to raise you as a human. I should have prepared you better, taught you more. Your life has been soft and painless. You're a Viltrumite in blood only. Well, your true education begins now.

You want to die for this planet?! Fine! What's seventeen more years?! I can always start again! Make another kid!

[in a speech for the Guardians of the Globe's televised funeral] I've fought the unimaginable in defense of this world. I've battled alien tyrants, defeated nightmares from the deep. Gone toe to toe with ancient gods... but no matter what threat I faced, I knew I wasn't facing it alone. Darkwing. Aquarus. War Woman. Green Ghost. Red Rush. Martian Man. Immortal. The Guardians of the Globe. Today, we have lost titans, protectors, heroes, and we are left to wonder... who will save us now? I will, and so will others like me. New heroes answering the call. New champions ready to risk everything to keep this planet safe. All inspired by these great souls who came before us. You will have moments of doubt, of fear, of uncertainty, but in those moments, have faith... [lifts off] and look to the sky. [flies away]

Mark Grayson

We seriously have to put everyone through this again?

The big one's for show, but the public can't know where the actual bodies are buried. Souvenir hunters.

Mark Grayson

Jesus.

Nolan Grayson

I was never a Guardian of the Globe, but it was the Guardians who welcomed me when I first arrived on this planet. They were my mentors. My comrades. My friends. They knew the reality of this life. Martian Man was exiled from his own people. War Woman was from a different age. Darkwing... [chuckles ruefully and clears throat] Well, Darkwing made his own kind of solitude. It was a rare, lucky few of us who found someone who understood our path, even rarer if they accepted it. I hope they will rest in peace, but at least they will rest together.

Get your hands off me! [screams in anguish as she falls off]

Donald Ferguson

Olga, please, calm down.

You wouldn't even let me see him. Josef is finally standing still, and I still can't see him!

Debbie Grayson

[to Mark] I'd better...

Mark Grayson

Yeah. [Debbie comforts Olga]

[to Mark] You okay?

Mark Grayson

Me? I... I dunno. It just doesn't seem real. [noticing Olga] That could have been my mom, putting my dad in one of those holes, or me. If this could happen to the Guardians of the Globe, it means that none of us are... [title card is presented with somber music]

What the hell was that? [the dust clears, revealing the subject to be Omni-Man; stammering] O-Omni... Uh, Mr. Grayson... Are you okay? You look kinda, uh... recently on fire.

[pats William's car roof, and looks at the backseats] Where's Mark, William? You were supposed to drop him off an hour ago.

Uh, Amber dumped him, and he didn't like my advice, so he went to go find Eve.

Call him.

His phone's broken. There was this attack at the college, and... and all of a sudden, we were... [interrupted by Omni-Man punching the car roof]

Where's Eve?

Uh... Mark said she got a place out in the woods, a couple hundred miles west of here. [notices Omni-Man's hands] That's not... blood on you, is it? [Omni-Man flies away in silence] Bye?

This is pointless! You can't stop me.

Cecil Stedman

Yeah, you're right, I can't. But I can do the same thing I've been doing since I figured out you were a lying piece of shit: I can buy us a little more time.

[bewildered with the shocking scene] Dad?

[with bloodshot eyes, he addresses to his son] Mark... we need to talk.

How could you do this?!

That was your fault. Your stubbornness against the inevitable killed those people. How many more need to die, Mark? It's up to you. And what were they doing with those fragile little lives anyway? Listen to what I'm saying, you know in your heart I'm right.

Right?! About how "pointless" and "pathetic" humanity is? Is Mom's life worthless?

In the grand scheme of things... yes.

Cecil Stedman

Debbie...

How could you say those things?! How could you say that about Mom?! LIAR!

For the first time in your life, I'm telling you the TRUTH!

[angry and desperate] WHY DID YOU MAKE ME DO THIS?! YOU'RE FIGHTING SO YOU CAN WATCH EVERYONE AROUND YOU DIE! THINK, MARK! You'll outlast every fragile, insignificant being on this planet! You'll live to see this world crumble to dust and BLOW AWAY! EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING YOU KNOW WILL BE GONE! WHAT WILL YOU HAVE AFTER FIVE HUNDRED YEARS?!

[weakly and soberly] You, Dad. I'd still have you. [Omni-Man remains silent, as his angry expression changes to a more remorseful one] Dad...?

Mark? [flies away from Earth]

Hello, son. It's been a while.

Dad?

Mark! Loo-- I made a mistake. And I've thought about you every day since--

A mistake?!

Son--

No, you don't get to call me that anymore!

What do you want me to say, Mark?

You could've started with "I'm sorry"! You know what? Don't bother, all right? It wouldn't mean anything anyway. I hope you like it here with your new friends. I guess they don't know you the way that I do. Fuck you.

Nuolzot wasn't lying to you; his people do need your help. Let me tell you why--

I don't care!

I know that's not true.

Why? Why do I care about them? They were weak. Short-lived. Barely a species. They shouldn't matter to me…

That doesn't mean they should die.

You don't understand! I'm not supposed to feel this way! How is this better?!

This is how you should've felt on Earth.

You look amazing!

I don't know. Feels a little serious.
