Mark Grayson (Invincible TV Show) is isekai'd to a different universe. What's the weakest universe you can send him to, where he can become strong enough to beat Thragg?

If you're going to use comic spoilers as a rough benchmark, please use spoilers. I'm tv show only, but I am vaguely aware of how things shake up. And if there are different feats from where the show is compared to where it was in the comic, let's use show feats.

Mark, at the very end of Invincible season 4, is isekai'd to a different fictional universe of your choosing.

After a period of 1 year Mark will return to his home universe, and must 1v1 fight Thragg, and win more than 5/10 times.

What's the "weakest" universe you can send him to?

Ideally, the universe/setting would be weak enough where the majority of its denizens cannot compete with the Invincible verse, but has enough buffs and hax that can improve Mark to the point of being able to fight Thragg.

Rules:

A) Mark cannot bring back any equipment to his home universe. Any buffs that Mark gets must be alterations of his very person, some sort of skill, a new power that can be obtained by other people in the verse, etc.

B) Mark can extend his training time if the universe he goes to has in-house time extension as a feature. A la the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. But ideally, it shouldn't be an infinite timespan where Mark can just train literally forever.

C) Mark has to be able to survive in the verse for the full 1 year, making friends and enemies as he normally would. This shouldn't be that hard, he is after all [TITLE CARD]. But sending him to the Xeelee Sequence verse or something will probably just get him killed.

Where do you send Mark, and what buffs can he possibly obtain that he can solo Thragg?

Strongest human that MCU Earth can create? Who's the strongest they can beat?

Inspired by the other "Strongest human that IRL Earth can create" thread

Rules:

A) All enhancements must come from Earth. Things like Wakandan nanotech are fine (Vibranium is extraterrestrial, but nanotech was independently discovered by humans), but alien nanotech (like what Starlord uses) are not allowed. This applies to all other technologies.

B) Non-Earth artifacts (like Mjolnir or the 10 rings) and power sources (like the infinity stones) are not allowed

C) The Earth techs used don't have the drawbacks that they do in canon (within reason), and don't compete with each other. Things like Extremis won't cause meltdown, and can exist alongside things like the super soldier serum or Hulk blood.

D) This chosen human is trained from birth, with the sole purpose of defeating their opponent.

How strong can MCU Earth make this human? What's the strongest opponent they can defeat in-universe? What's the strongest non-MCU character they can defeat?

[Loved Trope] In a setting full of morally grey characters, they are a beacon of goodness

A) In the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, everyone in it is either to survive or to gain power. Ser Duncan the Tall is one of the few exceptions. While of course he is fallible, and still has to do his best to survive, his willingness to do the right thing even at the potential cost of his life is unique in both character and success rate.

He (spoilers for beyond the show) >!becomes the most decorated Kingsguard of all time, easily the most famous and beloved knight in Westeros, and dies in his old age after having saved even more lives.!<

A true knight, to to the very end.

B) Bojji from Ranking of Kings. Ranking of Kings is one of these deceitful bits of media where it deliberately twists all of your first impressions, on practically every character. People the audience thinks are good/evil become traitors/nuanced/beloved, all sorts of different combinations.

Except for Bojji. He's a sweet boy from the beginning, and while I'm not caught up on the manga (if it's still ongoing) he's one of the few characters who has absolutely no skeletons in his closet or hidden motivations.

C) Michael Carpenter, the Fist of God. One of the Knights of the Cross from the Dresden Files, Michael is the moral centre of Harry Dresden's supporting cast.

A truly good man, who believes in a truly loving God. He will fight to protect the weak, and even more impressive, to redeem the damned. There is no soul too lost that he will not at least try and save, in nomine dei.

[Loved Trope] The hero has to revert to an older costume in their darkest hour

A) In Spider Man Homecoming, Peter has to use his original home made suit cause Tony confiscated the Stark Tech one. Despite the goofy design, it really worked for me in the final battle against the Vulture, especially with how tired Peter looks after saving Toomes' life. Just a kid from the neighborhood, doing the best he can

B) In the Telltale Batman video game, there's a choice you can make where you can pick between stopping Two-Face, or stopping the Penguin from hacking Batman's whole system.

Due to damage to the main batsuit, Bruce ends up having to put on a different suit. Depending on the choice you make, you get to either put on an enhanced Mk2 suit (the latter in this picture) or the prototype suit, which is my personal favourite.

It's such a barebones suit, and Lucius describes it as having almost zero protection compared to the normal batsuit. But it was Bruce's first outfit when becoming Batman, so it feels extra cool kicking the ass of the final episode villain with effectively a cloth suit.

C) I don't care what anyone says, I love Matt Murdock's Ninja Pajamas. Him using this in Netflix Daredevil season 3 was such a cool aesthetic, and thematically worked really well for him. The black exterior with the inner white lining.

After having supposedly completely lost his faith, there's still a kernel of belief in him that good can win out over evil.

Plus, the oldschool Muay Thai handwraps made out of jump ropes was a sick addition
