Truth be told, he thought the news were exaggerating how dangerous those cyborgs were, and that if all else failed he could just fly away with his rocket spats; he hadn't expected a powerless civilian to be there, or those things to be so ridiculously fast. "Besides, I am usually un-de-tec-ta-ble!"

He says this like he is absolutely convinced of the fact, possibly because he is. Undetectable, in all his purple, white and sparkly glory.

Seems perfectly reasonable, really.
