'Invincible' Season 4: Who Died in the Show's Bloodiest Battle Yet?

Invincible season 4 has been one of the ultimate roller coaster rides on TV this year. After a third season that used a lot of slower plotting and build-up to something bigger, the fourth season has taken the action to a peak not yet seen in Robert Kirkman's comic book adaptation.

The penultimate episode of the season, "Don't Do Anything Rash", was the bloodiest, most gruesome affair yet in the show. Mark, Nolan, Allen, Oliver, and Thaedus soared into battle as the underdogs against Thragg and the Viltrumites. Our heroes destroyed Viltrum once and for all, but that doesn't mean the aliens who occupied the planet went down with it. Who lived to see another fight? Let's recap!

Mark Grayson/Invincible: Alive

He's not named Invincible for nothing, right? Mark is the most invulnerable person in the story, not only because he has plot armor and there can't be a show without him, but because it makes sense for someone whose main strength is his resolve to live. Thragg decides it would not be in his best interest to kill Mark when there are so few Viltrumites left in the universe.

Nolan Grayson/Omni-Man: Alive

Things got a little touch-and-go for the most OG anti-hero in the galaxy. After his plan to destroy Viltrum instead of attacking Thragg was executed to perfection, Thragg decided to take out his frustrations on the planet's most famous specimen. Omni-Man had his insides ripped out in graphic style, but the last scene of the episode shows that his life was spared for at least a little while longer. If Nolan did die in this one, his arc would have felt satisfying anyway. Now, he gets even more time to build his redemption.

Thaedus: Dead

The leader of the resistance movement, Thaedus, had no chance in this fight. Thragg cuts Thaedus's head off the second he sees him after Viltrum explodes into the abyss. Thaedus is the one who put the Viltrumites into the near-extinction they now suffer through after infecting them with a virus that killed off almost the entire species. Thragg finally got to exact his revenge.

Oliver Grayson: Alive?

Oliver is the bravest of all the characters in the show. He's a dumb teenager with no discretion when he heads into battle. Oliver stupidly tries to fight Thragg individually and gets his arm and face taken right off. It was jarring to watch happen, and Oliver's fate is left up to interpretation until the last moments of the episode, when he's seen in a recovery tube. Nolan says he'll recover, but we're not so sure until we see him up and breathing.
