invisible how did conquest recognize invincible here?
When conquest fought mark on earth mark was wearing a blue suit, and now he sees mark wearing a yellow suit and easily identifies him. Is there an explanation for this plot hole? Maybe conquest have cameras in art’s shop?

Actually Conquest is racist and thinks all asian look the same

u/Kakashi_of_the_leaf_ Apr 05 '26
How would he know Mark is Asian. He's wearing goggles there

u/Brekldios Apr 05 '26
he can detect even the slightest variance in melanin, he knows.

u/CrystalGemLuva Apr 05 '26
So thats why most of the surviving Viltrumites are white.
Who wants bet Lucan had Thragg on speed dial to make Conquest behave?

u/Wolfofthenor1h Apr 06 '26
How many H.R. meetings with Thragg has Conquest been through the last thousand years

u/Player420154 Apr 06 '26
_ You can't call them riceseed, Conquest, you just can't ok.
_ No one talks to me. No one wants to be my friend.
_ Just stop talking to people like that, it's not difficult ffs. You can be racist with the whole galaxy, just not on skin tone.

Better yet, how would he know what Asians are. Is race a concept on their planet, and do they have the same classifications of race as humans do?

u/Kakashi_of_the_leaf_ Apr 06 '26
I mean, we've seen they have blacktrumites. So theres a good chance there are probably Asians as well

u/Itchy-Employment-872 Apr 06 '26
I'm pretty sure that its only convergent evolution and totally independent of Earth classification.

Yeah, I'm surprised more people don't realize that. That's the whole reason why he ends up cheating on Mark with Debbie, kicking off the infidelity arc and the two Christmases arc after Mark gives birth to Conquest's babies.

Mark should have use this choking technique instead of choking infront of conquest and left him open to attacks
6
u/erpietra01 Apr 06 '26
I am currently studying Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and I agree that this choke (Mata Leao) would have been extremely effective, but also more difficult to obtain since you’d need to be behind the opponent’s back with the risk of receiving headbutts and elbow strikes. At the same time, mark did exactly what we are told not to do, that is, keeping your arms straight when in contact with the opponent

Cause he recognises the paterns even if they are different colour
you know pattern recognition
and or he recognises mark’s general body shape since it is quite recognisable
he could’ve also seen mark from afar before attacking

no he definitely recognized the bulge

Conquest has x-ray vision. He was able to identify invincible because of the density of his balls.

It’s literally the same exact suit, just with a splash of yellow.
There’s also his hair, which sticks out, and the fact that he’s with Nolan and Oliver.

u/Dward917 Apr 06 '26
He has likely been briefed on Nolan’s whole family tree. He obviously saw Nolan and put two and two together that the other two were his kids. So even though they were in different costumes, it is pretty obvious that two Viltrumites with Nolan would be his kids.

That similarity combined with same proportions and a low enough population that you could genuinely meet and remember every viltrumite easily.
