Invincible: How Every Main Character Dies In The Comics

Invincible, the popular superhero television show on Prime Video, is known for its intense and violent storytelling. Adapted from Robert Kirkman's Image Comics series, the show maintains the hyper-violent style, down to the specific methods of dismemberment and death for each character. Please note that this article contains major spoilers for both the comics and the TV series.

One of the most reimagined characters in the show is Shrinking Ray, originally a male named Shrinking Ray/Rae in the comics. In the series, she is a woman voiced by Grey DeLisle and develops a romantic relationship with her teammate Rex Splode (Jason Mantzoukas). After a near-death encounter with the Lizard League, she is devoured by Komodo Dragon and suffers severe injuries, but still survives. In the comics, her encounter with the Lizard League results in the same fate, leaving her with broken bones but still alive.

The character of Immortal also undergoes a similar transformation in the series. In Season 3, Episode 4, "You Were My Hero," Mark (Steven Yeun) is abducted by time traveling twins who need his help to liberate their society from an oppressive Immortal (Ross Marquand). In both versions, the Immortal's extreme longevity drives him mad, leading to his brutal and tyrannical behavior.

Mark unknowingly triggers the Immortal's breakdown in the comics, but ultimately executes him, believing him to be the right person to lead Earth as protector. This death remains a closed loop in the series.

Rex Splode, another reimagined character, handles confrontations with the Lizard League in both versions of the story. In the comics, he survives numerous injuries, including broken bones, dismemberment, and a gunshot to the back of the head. The TV series gives his death more emotional impact and build-up, thanks to his relationship with Rae. Both versions of the Immortal's death occur in the distant future due to the character's long life span, which drives him insane.

Conquest, an enemy from the Viltrumite Empire, arrives on Earth in the aftermath of the Invincible War. In both the TV series and comics, Mark grapples with immense psychological conflict, as the Angstrom Levy he killed earlier returns, having taken countless lives. Conquest's death in the TV series is given more space, emotional impact, and a deeper connection to Mark's character arc.
