It is also a ''prime invincibility'', if even a single duplicate remains he can go on to live another day, giving him the rank of High Epic.{{book ref|Mitosis|2}} |

| − | Mitosis journeyed to Newcago to learn the truth surrounding Steelheart's death. He did not believe that [[David Charleston]], an average non-Epic, was capable of killing a High Epic of Steelheart's power. He also wished to rule Newcago, stating that he was more powerful than Steelheart because Steelheart needed men to help administrate while he himself was an army of one.{{book ref|Mitosis|3}} He snuck into Newcago and started duplicating himself, each copy armed with a handgun. He threatened civilians to draw David out, then chased David through the city. David eventually figured out that Mitosis’ weakness was hearing songs by his old band, and started singing even as he was cornered. [[Tia]] sent a message via mobile to the citizens of Newcago, who came outside and started singing one of Weaponized Cupcake’s old songs, ultimately killing Mitosis for good.{{book ref|Mitosis|5}} After his death, |
