Viewers are eager to see what’s next for Darkwing 2 in Invincible Season 3. Introduced in the previous season, he battled Invincible and trapped him in the Shadowverse. After the events of their fight, a heroic Mark plans to put him behind bars for his horrific acts in the name of vengeance. However, he has now returned in a new form, leaving many eager to learn about his current intentions. Here are the details on Darkwing 2’s Season 3 plot and his powers.
Invincible Season 3’s Darkwing 2 explained
The original Darkwing differed from the current one due to his comedic resemblance to Gotham’s protector, Batman. He had a similar skill set, fueled by vengeance, relying on advanced gadgets and hand-to-hand combat rather than superpowers. As his Night Boy (Darkwing 2) carried on his mantle, he didn’t live up to his footsteps at all.
Firstly, he is not a disciplined crimefighter but rather an unstable and brutal one. Contrary to his predecessor, he lives under constant pressure to protect the city, leading to him committing grievous acts and losing control sometimes. He also doesn’t like to be referred to as a sidekick.
Although Darkwing 2 caused trouble in Season 2, he is still seen as Midnight City’s protector, ready to bring criminals to their knees and serve justice. While his past actions cannot be overlooked, he has now returned as a changed man.
He channels his heroic nature by rescuing Mark, Eve, and the Guardians from Doc Seismic and his underground monsters. Meanwhile, Mark is shocked to see him as he believes he is imprisoned. With Darkwing 2’s bad impression lingering in Mark’s mind, he warns everyone around him that Darkwing 2 is a murderer.
Darkwing 2 acknowledges his remarks and says “He’s right. I did terrible things. But that was before, but I’m better now, thanks to Cecil.” Later, he ultimately joins the Guardians to fight further threats.
What are Darkwing 2’s powers and abilities?
Darkwing 2 appears to have acrobatic and martial arts abilities. However, one of his unique qualities is, that he can access the Shadowverse, trapping anyone he wants in the dimension.
He also wields the ability to hear into the events of Shadowverse alerting the heroes about any potential incoming threats. His other abilities include hand-to-hand combat and an Exo-Skeleton Suit that amplifies his strength.
