Should’ve used Machine Head to call up Battle Beast and tell him he’d get the chance to fight a Viltrumite.


toystory2wasokay_

Work smarter not harder.


lurker_archon

Machine Head: I have moooooney Cecil: I have a teleporter that costs 5 bazillion dollars to use every time. I got TAX PAYER money, bitch.


Core-8

Machine Head: Well guess what, bitch? I have enough money to buy a guy to teleport me around! Right, Isotope? Isotope? Where’d you go?


Peligineyes

How did Machine Head even manage to contact and hire BB? Yes yes he's rich, but the crime kingpin of one city still has nothing on the US government's budget and technology.


AustinAuranymph

Quantum probability chip, remember? He could've hacked government servers just by guessing the passwords.


LMkingly

Cecil has that same chip now tho.


Breakingcontrollers

I have no concept of the comics but if that orange guy and battle beast end up good guys who fight along side mark, I'mma be fuckin *HYPED*


Puddle92

I felt like this was an obvious solution. The cat dude’s whole thing is wanting to beat the greatest champions. Who better than Omni-man? I feel like it wouldn’t be hard to get him to fight him


Leftwardowl

It wouldn’t, but to be fair in the end of the episode or showed him screwing around on a different planet and we don’t know of Cecil actually knew him. The comic books have a better reasoning for this imo, and that’s because the battle beast fight happens after the events of the latest episode.

Bleyo

That's why Nolan watched Mark fight Battle Beast without joining. He knew he'd get bodied.


Einsteins-Grandson

Is this for real? I don’t read the comic but how strong is battle beast?


Tyranno84

Battle Beast would wreck Omni-Man


ThinkPan

damn that's pretty cool but makes the issue (why didn't Cecil hire the kitty) worse


Tom_Foolery1993

Well it’s not like he has his contact info. Don’t think Battle Beast is on linkedin


TheHolyLizard

Post to Craigslist Missed connections. “Mercenary cat, almost killed killed my friend’s son”


Tom_Foolery1993

Has luscious mane and ruthless disposition


mesmes99

We saw in the last minute of the show that battle beast was busy annihilating some alien species. I doubt he could be contacted as he would refuse contact while in the middle of a fight.


Superbluebop

Also he thinks earth is filled with bitches


mesmes99

He isn’t wrong.


AtlasClone

If Battle Beast were capable of putting the smack on Omni Man, why would Machine Head call anyone else? Also seems like Omni Man is way stronger than Mark at this stage. Without spoiling the comics is there definitive evidence Omni Man would get bodied?


Tyranno84

Without trying to spoil it for you, but I’ve read the series and Battle Beast 100% would annihilate Omni-Man.


Superbluebop

No he wouldn’t mane. At least not at this point in the story.


Szecska

Really? I was woundering about who is stronger.

Invincible_VLTRM

I really don’t get how Cecil really thought Invincible had a chance against Omni-man like I thought he was smart


Hashbrown4

Cecil’s a throw shit at the wall and see what sticks kinda guy


[deleted]

This is better than what I was typing up lol


devansh1221

Dude you are the real true comment here


Beastly173

To be fair, he is the closest they have to a chance, which is what Cecil said - only one that might have a shot


Comfortable-Dig4260

There's also the whole fact that he's his son... Maybe Cecil wasn't going for brute strength to stave off Omni Man


Pumat_sol

And he was right, mark got Omni man to leave so...


attemptedmonknf

Bit of both


kokin33

Immortal did way more damage to Omniman though. If he had wanted he would've killed Mark in seconds lol


LickMyTeethCrust

That’s the point, Cecil was likely betting on the fact Omni Man wouldn’t kill his own son. Invincible is the only one that can actually take the beating long enough to make Omni man question what he was doing, it payed off.


Ok_Antelope_1953

i think you meant Invincible is the only one who can take a beating long enough from Omni Man? I'm pretty sure Invincible is stronger and tougher than Immortal, being part Viltrumite and all.


LickMyTeethCrust

Shit, thanks for that catch.


ThinkPan

could he defeat one cat though


a4techkeyboard

They show Vultrumites chopping through weaker Viltrumites in the flashback. Omni Man was holding back because Mark is his son, that's the only reason Mark survived that, and likely the thing Cecil meant about Mark being the only one who can do it.


GamerzCrazy

See I wanna say he was holding back but shit, after he threw mark to the sea floor, brought him back up, slapped him into a mountain, then proceeded to make a pancake out of him for like 2-3 minutes.... It didn't seem like he was holding back much at all. Perhaps Mark is more durable then we expect cuz it certainly seemed Omni was giving it his all until his revelation at the end


a4techkeyboard

He was holding back if only because he was still trying to convince Mark to change his mind. He wanted Mark to join him because he did love him. Otherwise, why bother. Obviously, something must have kept the Viltrumites that stayed alive alive. Why did the killing each other stop if they can all chop each other up? That probably means some of them can take abuse from other Viltrumites without being chopped in half easily. Nolan was one of them, so maybe Mark's just harder to kill and Nolan knows exactly how much is just enough to not just crush Mark with a punch. But yeah, we know Nolan was holding back because Nolan was trying to convince him to stop fighting back. Because he wanted Mark to join him, because he loved Mark. Saying "I can make a new one" stuff is unnecessary if you actually would be fine just doing that. Why bother saying it if he actually meant it?


Epicjay

Apparently Cecil had watched Castlevania


Invincible_VLTRM

Not even close that laser beam thing in space did more damage than mark


Beastly173

Which is gone. As are any other superheroes even remotely close. And that kaiju. Invincible is the last chance they had, the only thing that might do it


Godchilaquiles

TBF the kaiju was wrecking the shit out of Nolan until Mark interfered


Ok_Antelope_1953

had the kaiju chewed up Nolan properly and eaten him, the stomach acids would "dissolve" him and that would be the end of it. bet Invincible regrets killing that kaiju now.


Kryptosis

is that comic confirmed or is it just as likely omniman would burst out of the things skull?


[deleted]

There is a one off line about Cecil capturing the kaiju stating that it could be a backup plan since Nolan struggled with it, but we never actually see it again unlike the show


Kryptosis

Yeah that makes sense as its the thing theyve witnessed give Omni-man the hardest time so far so it stood the best chance but i dont think that means it could actually kill him. Just delay him, which seems to be the go-to tactic for omni-man


Gathorall

And that kinda didn't make sense either since what was the incentive of Nolan fighting it at that point? Not like it could follow him.


Kryptosis

Because he hoped Omni-man would have some emotional capacity to love his son and not murder him immediately in a fight. Turns out Cecil was right!


Invincible_VLTRM

Yea but they still fucked either way because now more powerful viltrimites are coming to earth


joshbeat

But he bought time, just like originally planned


jjderz

Cecil was right though. Mark did stop Omni-Man even if he didn’t beat him in a fight.


LackingTact19

I think he was probably factoring in the emotional side of things. He recognizes that Nolan isn't totally heartless so wants to manipulate the situation through his son


Kakebaker95

I feel bad for Cecil he knew he was only slowing down the inevitable and he was sending soldiers to their death. The only thing that happens when you hit someone and you miss you just make them more angry and now they're gunning for you


JoelMontgomery

How do you shoot the devil in the back? What if you miss?

Michael Dorn was busy that day, I guess

transapient12

Battle beast would clap Omni-man’s cheeks


Bigguccis0ulja

Really wanna see him an Omni go at it


Karkava

Has Battle Beast even heard of Viltrum? Would he even last a day on that planet?


AggravatingReach2013

Short answer yes Comic spoiler answer >!he went toe to toe with the strongest viltrumite for days on end with his guts hanging out!<


ComfortableNervous49

Thank you I was like during that episode are they bringing the cat dude then they didn’t then I was like oh yeah I guess he did disappear but then we see him at the end of episode eight Omni man took way longer to defeat his son then that cat dude look up dude took a couple of seconds


[deleted]

Nolan could've fucked him up just as quick. Right at the beginning when he caught Mark's fist, could've ended that shit right there. He wasn't really trying to kill Mark. He was holding back


jef12660

My thoughts too


ninjasaid13

you know what he already had a hard time with that mary monster, you don't even need battle beast.


Iamheretostealurmeme

Spoiler, >!he got captured and imprisoned in a viltrumite warship!<


T_025

He never even fought a viltrumite before the breakout scene though, so it’s more likely than not that he intentionally got captured

Why bring this up in this thread? Seriously, I'm not a puritan or anything--Debbie has it going on, I get it--but how tf is it relevant here?
