Robot uses sound as an against Mark inInvincible#111 (2014)
All Viltrumites have the power to fly , and this is the informant of one of their most important weaknesses . Viltrumites like Mark and Nolan have been able to fly across the intact world in seconds or less . Their flight power is possible due to the sensitivity of Viltrumite interior capitulum , which can be weaponized against them , using acute sounds to cause them physical pain in the neck . InInvincible # 111 , the now villainousRex automaton attacks Markusing specially design armour which give off a deadly sonic pulse when come to .

8Young Viltrumites Lack The Invincibility of Their Elders
You can kill a Viltrumite, if you attack them before they reach adulthood
Time is the foeman of allyoung Viltrumites like Invincible . One of the many fringe benefit of being a Viltrumite is that they age incredibly slowly once they reach adulthood , and they only grow stronger with time . Omni - Man ’s sometime age proves that these stranger are a violence to be reckoned with , but Mark Grayson is n’t so favourable . Mark is initially a relatively sapless Viltrumitegiven his young age , and vulnerable to attacks that people like Thragg could shrug off . Given thatInvincibleis set in a world of multiple dimensions and super - scientific discipline , it ’s not beyond the realm of hypothesis to move back in time and vote down a Viltrumite when they ’re at their most vulnerable , using weapons that just would n’t work against them in their flush .
Invincible comic leger creative person Ryan Ottley has revealed the one page he ’s illustrate that he ’ll never sell , in spite of its compromise condition .

During his final battle against Thragg inInvincible # 140 , Invincible fights the unhinged king inside the sun itself to step down his healing factor and kill him .

Despite their all - but inpenetrable hide , Viltrumites are totally vulnerable when an foeman attack the inside of their trunk . A deathly disease or even a shrinking , topnotch - powered scoundrel can easily put down the insides of a Viltrumite . Indeed , not even Invincible can oppose himself from a bomb inside his body . Viltrumites are n’t justmorevulnerable from the inside - they ’re capable of being killed with a single guessing .

The Scourge Virus is the disease that virtually ended the Viltrumite conglomerate by down off near their entire universe . The computer virus infects Viltrumites by aggress their immune system , close down their strength and invulnerability . Though Invincible is capable to scarce survive the virus , this weakness is the ultimate reminder of how vulnerable a Viltrumite ’s trunk is against a well - chosen weapon .
Robert Kirkman ’s Invincible has avant - garde risible book elements , such as meta - wittiness . The show has n’t adapted this aspect ( and in all probability wo n’t ) .

Without their abilities , any enemy can birth a withering final blow with only traditional weapons .

Caring for his son almost gets Omni-Man killed by Thragg inInvincible#138 (2017)
Though Viltrumites are made of virtually perdurable material , love is an emotion that can destroy them mentally way well than any computer virus or strong-arm weapon . Omni - Man believe in his reason to conquer Earth so ardently that he kill his friend , the Guardians of the Globe , andbeats his own son , Invincible , to near end .
