Matchmaker At the beginning of Invincible, Cecil hires these scientists. How does the story change?
Each round is a separate scenerio, where only the scientist mentioned is recruited individually. Everyone is loyal to Cecil and start without any of their prior equipment.
- Dr. Vegapunk (One Piece)
- Dr. Bofoi (One Punch Man)
- Bulma (Dragon Ball)
- Dr. Doofenshmirtz (Phineas and Ferb)
- Dexter (Dexter's Laboratory)
- Rick Prime (Rick and Morty)

Earth Solos the rest of the verse through their combined efforts.
Robot gets low-diffed when he tries to take over.

All are taken individually in different timelines. Should have made that more clear.

Rick prime is literally the only one they need
Provided he's actually intending to help he's quite literally able to partition the multiverse so he could very easily just do something similar protecting a large chunk of the multiverse in very same way that he's done in the show already by making it to the humanities the top dog and a little slice of the multiverse
Not to mention the fact that he'd probably have a very easy time just portal in all of the viltrumites too bum f*** nowhere

Dexter is actually fundamental in every timeline where Invincible turns evil, in the world where mandrake was the ruler of earth he was able to become a survivor and could defeat him the moment he got the lab back
also depending on timeline this changes a lot, either his entire family is superheros that all keep it a secret from one another and have giant robots or his monkey was such a hero he managed to pull off 'a champion vs the thing' on an alien wrestler and impress him with always getting back up
Bulma immediately destroys the entire transportation industry by making capsules, like people don't understand how many assassins she will get on her if her products become available, all ships suddenly stop and 10 planes can deliver the same as a cargo ship
Vegapunk would unironically love earth, like even the reanimen are morally better than what he had to do to kuma by a mile, like they make cecil the complete unquestionable hero, that takes A LOT

Vegapunk can reinvent his pacifista stuff and maybe combine it with Reanimen to be even stronger. Probably useful in the Invincible War or for helping clamp down on domestic supervillainy while earth is trying to gear up to face Viltrumites. Might be able to make more powerful stuff after exposure to what Viltrumites can do.
Bulma is able to reinvent her father's capsule technology, so Duplikate can actually have equipment to be marginally more useful. There are probably some other times where that utility is helpful but I can't think of any offhand. Given sufficient time and reason to do so, she can also invent time travel. Could lead to experimenting with whether timelines can be changed or if it just results in timelines splitting. Maybe knowing about Angstrom Levy she can also invent dimensional travel, but it would probably take a good long while.
Probably the biggest medium term change is that she can make a gravity chamber to help train Mark, so he can get stronger, faster. Maybe Mark is strong enough that Anissa can't get a kid out of him, maybe not.
Dr. Doofenshmirtz has some issues with inventing things to be used for good on purpose, so he's actually more valuable to Cecil in his role in Phineas and Ferb, it would just take some finagling to arrange for someone to be his Perry the Platypus substitute. It's kind of hard to predict exactly what he would end up inventing, but generally his stuff is fairly powerful.
My first thought with Dexter is that he could work with Tech Jacket and improve him. His giant robots or spacecraft could be useful as well. Maybe there's more contact between Earth and Mars with some attendant benefits and strife.
Rick Prime is able to reinvent portal travel so he can travel the multiverse for whatever is needed. He can also improve existing heroes to make them stronger. He can also invent weapons that trivialize Viltrumites. If he's actually serious and wiling to play ball he can solve basically any problem in the setting. Hell, he's probably one of the few characters who could fix Angstrom Levy, if he even gets messed up in the first place.
