However, Battle Beast eventually left his home planet after an unknown amount of time.
Unfortunately, what is known about Battle Beast’s backstory is very vague.
Robert Kirkman is returning to write it, meaning that it will probably be canon toInvincible.
Based on the comic book character by Robert Kirkman, Invincible follows Mark Grayson, a seventeen-year-old who leads a seemingly average life save for the fact that he lives behind the shadow of his superhero father, Omni-Man. Mark goes on to develop superhuman abilities, but he must also learn that his father’s legacy isn’t as glitzy and glamorous as he’s been led to believe.
He is also incredibly fast and durable, with him often leaping around rooms like a cat.
As it turns out,Machine Head hired Battle Beast as well as several other supervillainsto do his bidding.
After easily defeating the aforementioned heroes, Battle Beast was disappointed with the competition on Earth.
Thus, he abandoned the planet in search of warriors elsewhere.
What happened to Battle Beast immediately after this hasn’t yet been explained.
After being freed, Battle Best joined Allen and Nolan’s fights against the Viltrumites.
It is eventually revealed that Battle Beast and the Viltrumite floated off into space as they continued to fight.
Based on the comics, Battle Beast won’t be gone for long.
