Everything to know about Powerplex from Invincible season 3

Prior to appearing in Invincible season 3, Scott Duvall, aka Powerplex, was first seen in the Invincible comics. Created by Robert Kirkman and Ryan Ottley and first appearing in Invincible #59, not much is known about the character's origins. However, it is quickly established that he was born in the United States of America and carries an intense hatred for the titular character.

In the series, it is heavily implied that he used to have a sister who unfortunately died when Omni-Man was fighting Invincible, and this caused him to carry a hatred for both of them. However, he eventually got married and had a kid, but he still wanted to exact revenge on Mark. Thus, he stole some bio-therm discs to store energy for his powers.

Using his discs, he tried getting Invincible's attention but was met with Shapesmith, whom he was able to defeat. Later on, he stole more discs to become powerful and finally gained Invincible's attention when he posed his wife and child as hostages. When Invincible tried pleading with Scott to let them go, he revealed his true reasoning for hating the hero.

When Mark tried apologizing, Scott engaged in a battle with him. This eventually led to the death of his wife and child, as Scott wasn't able to control his power. He blamed Invincible for this as well. While Mark eventually defeated him, Scott still swore revenge on the hero. His story doesn't just end here, as he plays a role in the Invincible War as well.

Alongside the debut of Powerplex, Invincible season 3 will also be featuring Mark Grayson's iconic black and blue suit from the comics. In the comics, he dons the suit after realizing that his job as a hero is much more serious than he had thought.
