Invincible Season 3 expands its universe with the introduction of Kid Omni-Man, also known as Oliver Grayson. While fans first saw Oliver as a baby in Season 2, he’s now stepping into the spotlight as a young superhero. Born to Nolan Grayson (Omni-Man) and Andressa, a Thraxan, Oliver’s unique heritage makes him a fascinating addition to the series.
Invincible Season 3’s Kid Omni-Man, Oliver Grayson explained
After Nolan was taken by the Viltrumites, Oliver was left in the care of his half-brother, Mark Grayson (Invincible), and stepmother, Deborah Grayson. Surviving the Langstrom Levy threat, Oliver is now older and ready to fight crime alongside Mark. Now, with his rapid aging, he is gearing up to become a young superhero.
In the latest trailer, Oliver appears in a fresh Omni-Man-inspired costume, fighting alongside his older brother, Mark. While their relationship adds a new compelling twist to the season, it also brings potential conflicts. Particularly regarding their differing moral codes—Oliver’s more aggressive approach contrasts with Mark’s stance against killing.
What are the powers of Oliver Grayson’s Kid Omni-Man?
As a hybrid of Viltrumite and Thraxan genetics, Oliver possesses extraordinary abilities. His powers include enhanced strength, incredible speed, a fast-healing factor, and superior intelligence. However, his mixed heritage also limits his potential, preventing him from reaching the same power levels as Mark or Nolan.
One notable trait is Oliver’s purple skin, a result of the genetic differences between Viltrumites and Thraxans. This mutation also affects his growth rate—he ages faster than humans but slower than full-blooded Thraxans. Additionally, his strong-willed and impulsive nature sometimes leads to reckless decisions, making him a wildcard in battles.
Oliver’s arrival on Earth adds tension, not only with Mark but also with their mother, Deborah, who still struggles with the betrayal of Nolan. Moreover, the world’s perception of another figure bearing Omni-Man’s emblem will likely spark controversy, given the damage Nolan inflicted.
As Invincible Season 3 unfolds, Oliver’s development as Kid Omni-Man will be quite interesting to watch. After all, it will challenge the established dynamics and raise the stakes for Mark’s journey as a hero.
