Burger Mart

Location from Invincible by Robert Kirkman

Mark's first job — a fast-food restaurant where a half-Viltrumite teenager flips burgers between saving the world.

Burger Mart is where Mark works a minimum-wage job because being a superhero doesn't pay. It's a grounding element — Mark can punch through walls but he still needs to show up for his shift. The contrast between his cosmic responsibilities and his requirement to wear a paper hat and ask 'do you want fries with that?' is both humorous and thematically important. This is the normal life he's trying to protect.

Appearance

A generic fast-food restaurant with fluorescent lighting, plastic booths, and a drive-through window. Mark's uniform is as unflattering as every fast-food uniform in history. The fry oil smell follows him home.
