Invincible Season 3 introduces a brand new Grayson family member to the world: Kid Omni-Man, otherwise known as Oliver Grayson.
Technically, the character was first seen as a baby in Season 2, the son of Nolan Grayson and the Thraxan Andressa. But when the other Viltrumites took away Nolan, Oliver went under the care of Mark and Deborah Grayson on Earth—just barely surviving the Langstrom Levy threat.
Oliver, now a tad older, was shown off for the first time in the Season 3 trailer as he gets a new Omni-Man-inspired costume and fights crime alongside his brother Mark.
Who Is Kid Omni-Man in Invincible
Oliver Grayson/Kid Omni-Man's origins in the comics begin exactly like they did in the show, being born to Nolan Grayson and Andresa on Thraxa.
Unsurprisingly, since he is the son of a Viltrumite, Oliver gained all of the traits and powers that Nolan Grayson (who will be in more of Season 3 than 2) had. This includes super strength, super speed, enhanced learning, a healing factor, slight, and so much more.
One of Oliver's more unique traits is his purple skin, which is a result of an incompatibility between Thraxans and Viltrumites. This incompatibility also keeps Oliver's max power levels from ever reaching the heights of his brother, Mark.
Oliver has accelerated aging (which is actually slower than the normal rate for Thraxans, thanks to the Viltrumite DNA). This is why the character all of a sudden looks like a child instead of a baby as he did in Season 2.
One quirk of Oliver's is that he can have a short temper, something that backfires in the comics.
How Will Kid Omni-Man Play Into Season 3?
Judging from the Invincible Season 3 trailer, it seems like Kid Omni-Man will be tagging alongside his brother Mark Grayson (who now has a new costume for his Invincible persona) as they both make a name for themselves.
The dynamic between the two brothers will be one of the more unique elements of Season 3 and should be fun for audiences to see play out. One key conflict between the two is how Kid Omni-Man challenges Mark Grayson's no-kill rule, a notably touchy subject, seeing as Invincible thinks he accidentally killed Angstrom Levy (which he did not).
Oliver's presence on Earth is also definitely going to continue to cause some complicated feelings for Mark's mom, Debbie, who still has an intense hatred for Nolan.
Then there's the fact that someone sporting a big O on their chest, like Omni-Man, will attract plenty of criticism and negative attention worldwide.
If Season 3 gets to the events of The Invincible War, then odds are Oliver will be a key player in defending the world against a Multiverse of alternate evil Invincibles.
