Conquest mid-credits scene explained
ComicBookMovie.com reported that the mid-credits scene in ‘Invincible’ Season 4, Episode 6, teases Conquest’s return before pulling the rug out from under viewers.
As noted in the report, Conquest had already survived one near-fatal fight with Mark Grayson after Cecil Stedman kept him alive in stasis following their earlier battle. He later regained consciousness and returned for another showdown with Mark in ‘Give Us A Moment.
‘ This time, Mark kills him in a savage fight, choking the life out of Conquest even as “his own guts were being pulled out of his body.”After the battle, Omni-Man buries Conquest and marks the grave with three vertical stones that symbolize the Viltrum Empire.
Later, when Mark, Oliver, Nolan, Allen, and their allies in the Coalition repel an attack from Thragg and his forces, the episode returns to that grave in the mid-credits scene. The music swells. The camera closes in. Then nothing happens.
