Omni-Man drifts through space

When you realize Omni Man is the calmest dude of his kind

[whatsittoya]

I actually think this is portrayed better here than in the comics. In the comic Omni man just sort of sits on the moon for a couple of minutes, then he flies to thraxa where he is named ruler due to his age. Here we actually see Omni man grieve, even trying to kill himself, then he saves the Thraxans and finds purpose again.

*While drifting in space, Omni Man landed in Outworld and took out his frustrations on the entire Mortal Kombat roster… and yet his pain lingers…*

That he went from absolute confidence in his empire for thousands of years to this after only 20 on earth shows just how much living among people who actually care about each other really affected him.

Debie thinks Nolan died that day but it turns out Mark killed Omniman the Viltrumite

[silvereaglestudios]

I can't get over the fact that Omniman has enough strength to escape the force of a black hole, the most powerful force in the universe.

Nolan’s story is compelling so far for a couple of reasons:
1. We know he’s been a heartless Viltrumite Soldier for thousands of years.
2. He went to Earth with a mission.
3. He started to struggle. He had to choose either Viltrum or his family. He thought if he pushed past his family, which was “meaningless” he could return to normal and the feelings would go. They didn’t.
4. He feels immense guilt.

Nolan’s story is tragic. He can’t be a Viltrumite now, as he is no longer an unfeeling supremacist. He can’t be a human anymore because of the horrible things he did on Earth. He destroyed both of his lives. His only hope is to redeem himself to Mark now.

if it wasn't for that ship, Nolan was ready to be dragged by the black hole without fighting

This scene was really well done. Avalanche was a good choice of music

[breadiswater]

"Eventually, Omni-Man had stopped thinking."

[tyberiousTem]

The fact that Omni man was about to kill himself before he noticed the Thraxan ship just shows that his time on earth really made him emotional.

[ferr.]

The "bad guy realizes their actions are actually bad and seeks redemption" trope can get annoying, but when it's done right, damn it hits hard

[rudeonion]

The parallels between this and Debbie's walk through the city, the scenes where they both contemplate killing themselves, everything about this episode was pretty much perfect. It's almost too easy to understand the pain that both of them went through.

The blackhole in front of him was nothing compared to the hole in his heart 😢. He really did love his family.

[GoldNSilverLuigi]

Anyone else like how the nebula in 1:15 kinda looks like ghosts? Like Nolan is being haunted by the people he killed, the family he betrayed, and the nation he abandoned.

[silverhawkscape]

I love how we went from seeing him Commit mass Murder to seeing him like...this. A broken man who left Earth even though he had no reason to retreat. Realizing he fits no where now. Not on Earth or Virtrumite.

Thinking of endig himself at a Black hole.

Without saying anything they made us feel Sympathy for him.

Outstanding

[miku_dominos]

I genuinely can’t explain how much I actually loved this scene, actually one of my favorites from the whole show

Update: With season 2 done, I can still say this is easily a top 3 scene for me out of the show, it still amazes me even now, and I cannot wait for season 3
Also I didn’t expect this comment to get this many likes holy shit

[TheKaneVision]

Never read the comics, but this really caught me off guard.
I seriously thought the story was Invisible training up for the day he had to take on his father.
I really didn't expect a story where omniman does what he does, leaves and then finds himself in a state of regret and emotional turmoil. The basically start becoming a good guy that the story could possibly be about him and his son trying to put a stop to his own race.
This show really throws curve balls at you.
Omniman has basically become Vegeta of sorts.

2:21 That little maneuver cost him 51 years.
