Find out in our article here.
Spoilers Warning: This article contains heavy spoilers about Conquest’s character from Invincible comics.
Is Conquest Dead or Alive in Invincible?
The most anticipated showdown between Invincible and Conquest ended with the former bludgeoning the old viltrumite to death. It was all thanks to Atom Eve, who weakened the veteran with her powers. In many ways, this battle reminded us of Mark’s fight against Angstrom at the end of the second season.
The mangled corpse of Conquest was seized by the Global Defense Agency. At this point in the story, everyone believes Conquest was killed by Invincible, and even Cecil confirmed he was dead when Mark asks to see the grotesquely deformed remains of the man he killed. However, it is a serious lie by Cecil, as he has plans for one of the strongest Viltrumites of all time.
In reality, Conquest somehow survived Invincible’s merciless onslaught, as seen in the climax of Season 3 Episode 8. Therefore, Conquest is still alive in the series and is currently imprisoned inside a 400-ton steel block underground equipped with tons of explosives. So Cecil mentions that even if Conquest moves slightly, the whole place will instantly explode.
Conquest is still alive, but he remains unconscious at the moment. When the old man wakes up, Cecil plans to collect intel about the Viltrum empire. But if you want to know what happens next, alas, he is going to pull off a prison break. Cecil’s risky decision to keep Conquest imprisoned is going to backfire big time in the upcoming season 4.
Who Kills Conquest in Invincible Comics?
In Invincible Comics, Conquest is killed by Mark Grayson aka Invincible. If the TV show follows the comic storyline as it has so far, Viltrumite will take place in the upcoming seasons, during which Mark will kill Conquest by choking him after fighting with him in a gruesome duel.
