Omni-Man

Omni-Man

Born to species of supremely powerful beings called Viltrumites, Omni-Man came to Earth where he created a human identity as Nolan Grayson. He served as a costumed hero and started a family, and when his son Mark became the hero Invincible he revealed their true purpose: Conquering the planet for the Viltrumite Empire. Invincible resisted his father’s request to join him in conquering Earth, and after Omni-Man beat his son nearly to death he fled the planet with a moral crisis. In space he started a new family, fathering Oliver, and following his capture by the Viltrumites he realized he truly loved his human wife Deborah. After befriending Allen the Alien the two escaped their Viltrumite prison and began collecting methods of combating the Viltrumites for the Coalition of Planets. Ultimately successful in destroying Viltrum and reducing the Viltrumites’ population drastically, Omni-Man rekindled his life with Deborah shortly before discovering he was the true inheritor of the Viltrumite throne. Ruling over the Viltrumites as Emperor, Omni-Man saw to his people’s protection to the bitter end. Dying in battle with the challenger to his throne, Thragg, Omni-Man survived long enough to pass his legacy on to his son.
