One of the most recent involves Mister Immortal. It is a being that, no matter what happens, does not experience any harm.
The adaptation presented in the Marvel Cinematic Universe showed him as an older adult, played by David Pasquesi, who has gone through different eras falling in love and getting married.

The Immortal Mister is just one more.
