Origin
Nolan Grayson, known as Omni-Man, is a Viltrumite warrior of exceptional power sent to Earth approximately 20 years before the events of the series. His mission was to conquer and subjugate the planet for the Viltrumite Empire. However, he fell in love with Debbie Grayson, a human woman, and fathered Mark Grayson with her. For years, he maintained a double life as both a devoted family man and a hidden agent of the Viltrumites, eventually abandoning his conquest mission.
Powers & Abilities
Omni-Man possesses the full suite of Viltrumite powers, making him one of the most powerful beings in the universe. His abilities include:
- Superhuman Strength: Can effortlessly lift and move massive objects and overpower most opponents
- Flight: Capable of achieving interstellar speeds and traveling through space
- Durability: Nearly invulnerable physiology; can withstand extreme damage and survive in harsh environments
- Regeneration: Healing factor allows recovery from severe injuries
- Longevity: Viltrumites age extremely slowly, granting exceptional lifespans
Key Relationships
Omni-Man's character is defined by his conflicting relationships. He shares deep love and respect with his wife Debbie Grayson and mentors his son Mark Grayson/Invincible, teaching him to control and master his inherited Viltrumite powers. However, his loyalty to the Viltrumite Empire and his hidden past create significant tension. His interactions with the Guardians of the Globe and other heroes reveal the disconnect between his adopted Earth identity and his true alien heritage.
Notable Feats
Omni-Man has demonstrated his power through numerous feats, including single-handedly defeating the entire original Guardians of the Globe, surviving battles against cosmic-level threats, and protecting Earth from Viltrumite invasion attempts. His willingness to sacrifice his own people and defy the Viltrumite Empress demonstrates his character evolution from conqueror to protector of his adopted home.
