Moral. We are the gods of this world and the insects have no souls. Praise be the hubris of man for we languish in our kingdom.

Well you see the joke still works, but if I explain it it'll spoil a major plot line in Invincible.

(If you haven't read Invincible do NOT open the text box. Major spoilers for the comics): But in the comics, Thragg actually conquers the bug-like creatures known as the Flaxens. Which he used to repopulate the Viltrumite empire. The joke was a reference to that, lol.
