Insomniac
CharacterInsomniac is a powered crimelord who enters Invincible during its third season, a feared figure of the criminal underworld and a member of the syndicate known as The Order who counts the title hero among his enemies.
Occupations
Appearance
He cuts a strange figure in a long grey trench coat thrown over a full red bodysuit. His head sits encased in a red and yellow helmet fitted with pins that hold his eyelids apart, keeping his eyes permanently open. Those eyes drift in different directions, suggesting strabismus, though it may simply be a quirk of the animation.
Personality
The series has yet to explore his temperament in any depth. What it does establish is his standing as a heavyweight of the criminal world, a man with enough clout to sit among the leadership of The Order.
