Knockout is a minor character in Invincible, debuting from Season 3 and onwards.
History
At some point during the Great Depression, a super-villian wielded enchanted boxing gloves, providing the user great strength and durability, being able to make a regular person be able to go toe-to-toe with superhumans. At some point this villain was murdered by Thor Man after getting into an altercation during a bank robbery, in which a glove fell off during. Thor Man was unknowing of his human durability without them, landing a killing blow, being shocked at his death afterwards.
Amidst the chaos, a bank security guard stole them and planned on selling them. Decades later, the guard’s grand daughter found the gloves secreted away in his home. She asked about their history. The guard told her of the gloves checkered past and when she asked for them, he happily passed them on to her. The young woman, now calling herself Knockout, became a super-heroine and began to fight crime. She quickly came to the attention of Capes Incorporated, an organization of professional super-heroes, and joined their ranks.
Invincible War
They assisted other heroes in fighting the alternate Invincibles, in particular Movincihawk, during the Invincible War. Early in the war, Capes Inc. mistook the main Invincible for one of the evil variants, fighting him for a while before realizing he was the main version. They also participated in humanitarian efforts, helping those effected in the chaos of the attack.
