7 strongest characters from Invincible who aren't Viltrumites

Invincible is known for having a multitude of extremely powerful characters, most of whom hail from the planet Viltrum. Viltrumites are generally regarded as the most formidable beings in the galaxy, possessing powers like superhuman flight, strength, speed and the ability to survive in space. But there are plenty of non-Viltrumite beings that can not only go toe to toe with Viltrumites, but even kill them. Here are the seven most powerful Invincible characters who are not Viltrumites.

Beware SPOILERS below for both Robert Kirkman's Invincible comic book and the Invincible TV show on Amazon Prime Video!

7. Monster Girl

Amanda, also known as Monster Girl, is essentially this universe's version of the Incredible Hulk. Amanda has the ability to turn into a giant, green rage monster. Unlike the Hulk, Amanda can turn into her monster form at will. There is a catch, though. Since her powers are a result of a curse, every time she turns into her monster form, her human form gets younger. By the time she is introduced, Amanda appears to be an adolescent girl, but she is actually a woman in her mid-20s. Conversely, every time she changes, Amanda's monster form becomes more powerful.

That last part is why Monster Girl makes this list, because the extent of her curse is vast. In an alternate dimension later in the comics, a group of Viltrumites reluctantly use an infant Amanda as a weapon of mass destruction. At this point, her human form is a newborn child while her monster form is the size of a building. Four of the most powerful Viltrumites from the comics were getting cold fee about unleashing her, making it pretty clear that not much could stop her in that state.

6. Space Racer

The Space Racer is an alien of unknown origin who was encountered by Omni-Man, one of the most powerful Viltrumites and the father of our title character, at some point decades in the past. During this confrontation, Omni-Man buried the Space Racer on an asteroid and left him to die since he was a threat to the Viltrumite Empire. But the Space Racer can not only breathe in space, but he also has the ability to survive for extremely long periods of time without food and water.

The real reason Omni-Man was dispatched to dispose of the Space Racer is because the alien possesses a gun capable of shooting beams that can damage anything, even Viltrumites. Nobody knows how he got this weapon, only that he is the only person who can wield it. When another person attempts to fire the gun, it immediately returns to Space Racer's hands.

The Space Racer has been mentioned briefly on the show. In the comics, he is eventually freed and assists the Coalition of Planets in the Viltrumite War. In addition to killing many Viltrumite soldiers, the Space Racer uses his beam to help Invincible, Thaedus and Omni-Man destroy the Empire's home world of Viltrum.

5. Angstrom Levy

Although he begins with good intentions, Angstrom Levy eventually becomes one of Invincible's most dangerous villains. The original Angstrom was born with the ability to travel across dimensions, but he wanted to take things further by combining the minds of Angstrom Levys from all other dimensions, with the hope that having so much knowledge in one mind would put him in a better position to solve the problems plaguing not just his own but every universe. Using technology developed by the Mauler Twins, Angstrom was somewhat successful in combining his multidimensional minds, but the procedure left him physically disfigured, and he blamed Invincible for it.

Although he now had superhuman strength, durability and a level of intelligence on par with Robot, Angstrom was consumed by rage and vengeance. He used his powers for evil, and became Invincible's arch-nemesis. The kicker is that many different versions of Angstrom Levy had direct exposure to evil versions of Invincible, which are common across the multiverse. With his collapsed consciousness, Angstrom has trouble remembering that our Invincible — the main character of the story — isn't the same guy.

His physical abilities aside, Angstrom is also the only person in existence who can easily access advanced technology, knowledge and medicine across dimensions, making him powerful on a level no one else can match. Had it not been for his blind rage, Angstrom could have made an attempt to rule the multiverse.

4. Robot

At first glance, Robot appears to be a standard robotic hero, a capable leader for the Guardians of the Globe who possesses a genius-level intellect. The metallic sentry drones that are initially called "Robot" are actually controlled remotely by Rudolph Connors, a severely disabled man confined to a stasis chamber. But using his brain, Rudolph is able to clone himself into a young, physically able body using the DNA of another hero, Rex Splode.

Initially serving as a loyal ally to Invincible — this is where his arc is currently in the TV show — Robot's actions become increasingly questionable. His genius-level intellect and eventual willingness to sacrifice anything for the greater good make him a serious threat in the later stages of the comic book.

One of Robot's defining characteristics is his unwavering commitment to his ideals, often at the expense of personal relationships and ethical boundaries. Throughout the series, he demonstrates a willingness to make difficult decisions in pursuit of his vision for a more orderly and just society. This determination leads him down a dark path, as he becomes willing to sacrifice lives and manipulate events to achieve his goals.

Robot's complexity is further highlighted by his relationships with other characters in the series, particularly his romantic involvement with Monster Girl. Their tumultuous relationship serves as a lens through which Robot's internal struggles are explored, as he grapples with his own identity and the consequences of his actions. At one point, Robot and Monster Girl find themselves trapped in the Flaxan dimension, where time doesn't age them and they remain for a thousand years. Over that time, Robot topples a corrupt Flaxan government and becomes the ruler of the Flaxan planet. This experience inflates Robot's ego, as he was the only one smart enough to organize a rebellion and take over the new government.

Just before returning to Earth, Robot orders the execution of all of his political rivals on the Flaxan planet, cementing his turn into an egomaniacal autocrat. When he returns to Earth, he instructs Monster Girl to tell everyone they were only gone for 12 years. Not knowing the full extent of what's happened, Cecil puts Robot in charge of coordinating all superhero teams on Earth, giving him access to sensitive planetary security information. When Invincible enlists Robot's help in tracking down Angstrom Levy in a different dimension, Robot murders Angstrom and abandons Invincible there.

When Invincible returns and reports the incident to Cecil, one of Robot's drones shows up and murders Cecil. He then used enhanced drones to execute a worldwide coup to take over Earth, murdering superheroes who he believed were threats like Black Samson and Shapesmith. Robot also attacks a pregnant Atom Eve, cuts off one of her legs and jettisons Monster Girl into space.

With suits capable of fighting Viltrumites and all opposition to his rule met with death or imprisonment, Robot becomes the unchallenged ruler of the planet. Although he eliminates crime, hunger and war from the planet, Robot rules with an iron fist, and the Viltrumites and Invincible eventually saw no point in wasting more lives trying to stop him.

3. Atom Eve

Samantha Wilkins, also known as Atom Eve, is one of the main characters from the Invincible comics and Mark Grayson's love interest for the majority of the story. Eve got her powers as a result of government experimentation. Her mother was a homeless woman whom the government paid so they could experiment on her children to create a super weapon. After a series of failed subjects who became deformed monstrosities, Eve was the only success. But Brandyworth, the Doctor who created her, could not bring himself to go on with the heinous experiments, so he switched Eve's body with that of a stillborn baby at a hospital, allowing her to grow up in a normal American household.

The experiments worked, giving Eve the ability to manipulate atoms on a subatomic level and to create virtually anything. She can turn one object into a completely different one, create force fields, fly, move objects with her mind and shoot energy from her fingertips. But what makes Eve one of the most powerful non-Viltrumite beings in the universe is immortality. That's right, Eve cannot die.

Doctor Brandyworth installed mental blocks inside Eve's head to stop her from being able to manipulate living flesh. But these mental blocks can be temporarily overcome when Eve experiences severe trauma or a deadly physical attack. During these moments, Eve can use her powers to manipulate her own body and restore her own life functions. The end of the comic book run sees Eve on her deathbed from old age. Even then, Eve was not only able to save her own life, but also de-age herself.

2. Battle Beast

We've seen Battle Beast in action during season 1 of Invincible, where he mopped the floor with the new Guardians of the Globe and incapacitated Mark with ease. In the comics, Battle Beast was the guardian of his home world. He grew addicted to combat after years of fighting people and eventually left his planet to seek more worthy opponents.

After his encounter with Invincible on Earth, Battle Beast was imprisoned by the Viltrumites and eventually freed by Allen the Alien and Nolan Grayson. Because the Viltrumites were the most worthy adversaries in the universe, Battle Beast pledged himself to the Coalition of Planets and assisted them in the Viltrumite War. Not only is Battle Beast able to hold his own against Viltrumites, but he is able to kill them with his immense strength alone. The only one able to remove Battle Beast from the fight is the Viltrumite Grand Regent Thragg, who is arguably the strongest living Viltrumite at the time. When the Viltrumite Empire was thrown into chaos after the death of their king, Thragg emerged as the strongest of their kind and was named their leader.

Thragg and Battle Beast would meet again however, when Allen sends the lion-like warrior to assassinate Thragg. The beginning of this contest sees Battle Beast's paramour send a group of Ragnars to attack Thragg and weaken him. Ragnars are feral beasts with the strength to pierce Viltrumite skin. But Battle Beast is very honorable and did not want what could be his most formidable challenge to begin with his opponent at a disadvantage. Instead, he helped Thragg kill the Ragnar and injured himself to the same capacity as Thragg so the fight would be on even ground.

This herculean fight lasted for several continuous days and resulted in the destruction of the planet it took place on. By the end, Battle Beast was defeated when Thragg ripped out Battle Beast's heart, but the Viltrumite leader was also mortally wounded and brought to the point of exhaustion. Thragg collapsed on the ground after sustaining heavy blood loss. The fact that a non-Viltrumite combatant could even come close to killing Thragg is a testament to Battle Beast's incredible power, and he likely would have won the fight had it not been for his honorable nature.

1. Allen the Alien

Allen the Alien is another product of genetic manipulation, as the Coalition of Planet were looking to create an army capable of going toe to toe with Viltrumites. They weren't able to mass produce their soldiers, as their one success was Allen the Alien. But quite a success he was.

Allen already had superhuman strength, telepathy and flight in his repertoire at the start of the series. But after a deadly encounter with three Viltrumites, Allen's powers were taken to the next level. Although the fight left him comatose and on the verge of death, Allen's body is able to regenerate and come back stronger after it is severely weakened. After emerging from his broken state, Allen's powers were buffed to robust levels, making him essentially on par with Viltrumites. During he and Omni-Man's prison break, Allen is able to punch a Viltrumite so hard that his head explodes instantly. During the Viltrumite War, one of the few times Allen is truly hurt was when six Viltrumites fought him at once.

What puts Allen so high on this list is the fact that he is essentially a Viltrumite who cannot die. His super regeneration ability on the verge of death makes him practically invulnerable. But unlike Viltrumites, Allen also has the added ability of telepathy and later a natural body armor, making him an extremely powerful being and one of the most deadly combatants in the universe. By the end of the series, Allen's body is so durable that he is able to withstand flying into the sun to rescue Invincible.
