Lord Commander / Jack
As Jack
"All the pieces are in place... Let's play a little." The Lord Commander in the second half of Season 3 (MAJOR SPOILERS)
Voiced by: David Tennant
A tyrannical being who desires Mooncake's power for himself.
- Adaptational Villainy: The show depicts him as a cold and dead serious sociopath, a far cry from his Laughably Evil counterpart in the pilot.
- Alien Blood: His blood's the same color as his heart - pitch black. However his black blood is actually the result of him getting corrupted, because it used to be pink as shown when Gary and his Father beat him up in the past.
- All for Nothing: He succeeds in using Mooncake to open the breach into Final Space, but the Titans he believed would make him into a god completely ignore him and just pull the Earth into Final Space instead. He ends the season with the breach destroyed, his forces depleted, and him still teetering on the verge of death because of overusing his powers. He's quickly killed off by Nightfall right after that. When he became a Titan, he felt invincible and he can't die; however, Ash easily defeated him and Invictus imprisoned him so he's trap there for all eternity. Being a titan, he can't die and can't escape.
- Ambition Is Evil: He wants to become a Titan, and would go to any immoral means of achieving it.
- And I Must Scream: After Ash defeats him in "The Devil's Den", Invictus punishes him for his betrayal by locking him inside an unbreakable prison for all of eternity, just like Bolo.
- The Antichrist: Season 3 heavily implies that his powers came from Invictus and he has since acted as Invictus' willing servant meant to aid it in being freed in exchange for more power, in contrast to Ash who is an Anti-Anti-Christ at the time. Invictus outright calls the Lord Commander its "child" at one point that same way it refers to Ash, further driving this trope home.
- Arch-Enemy: He is easily the most personal enemy of the Team Squad. Particularly Gary for ripping his arm off, Avocato for coercing him into betraying his home planet, turning him into a weapon to increase his power, and kidnapping his son, and for Little Cato for being indirectly responsible for the death of his father.
Word of God has even stated that Lord Commander is meant to be the arch-enemy to the Team Squad as a whole, while the series Big Bad Invictus is the arch-enemy of the universe at large. - An Arm and a Leg: Anyone unfortunate enough to end up in a fight with him usually lose 1 to all of their limbs for their troubles.
- Armor-Piercing Question: How he got Avocato to work for him; questioning why Avocato fights wars for Ventrexia in the first place, and giving him a purpose beyond the killing.Lord Commander: Tell me, what's so special about Ventrexia? It sends its people to die in a thousand-year war for what!?
Avocato: I don't know anymore...
Lord Commander: So then, they have you kill for no reason?
Avocato: I kill because I—
Lord Commander: You kill because you're good at it!
Avocato: You're right. - Arc Villain: Of Season 1. He's the primary threat to the galaxy, the one hunting for Mooncake, the one behind the corruption of the Infinity Guard, and the one expanding the breach in space-time that threatens to destroy Earth in the hopes of becoming a Titan. He's actually an Unwitting Pawn of Invictus, but in season 3, he's revived to serve as its dragon.
- Art Evolution: In Season 1, his Glowing Eyes of Doom are yellow with a red corona, but in Season 3, they're a pure golden in both the present and in pre-series flashbacks.
- Ax-Crazy: The Lord Commander and sanity are not on speaking terms. His first response to any given situation seems to be to torture or kill anyone involved as painfully as possible.
- Back from the Dead: Shortly after Nightfall finishes him off in "The Toro Regatta", Invictus scoops up his remains and brings him back as his Dragon by the events of the third season. His first onscreen order of business? Destroying the last three Arachnitects left in Final Space.
- Badass Boast: When Ash attempts to attack him in "The Hidden Light"."And just how did you think that was gonna go, girl? I AM THE LORD COMMANDER!!!
- Bad Boss: He chokes his own attendant for giving him a snack that wasn't the right size. In episode 6, it's revealed he forced his top lieutenants to personally murder their first-born children as a display of loyalty to him.
- The Bad Guy Wins: In "Until the Sky Falls", he accomplishes the goal he set out to achieve in Season 1 and becomes a Titan while successfully betraying Invictus.
- Bald of Evil: Not one speck of hair on his evil, little head. Though he never had any to begin with, even when he wasn't evil.
- Berserk Button: Do not tell him that he's not The Chosen One. Saying that his empowering was just an accident and that the Titans didn't choose him for anything is a surefire way to get him to try and kill you.
- Big Bad Ensemble: Initially serving as The Dragon for Invictus, He would betray Invictus and fuse with the Titan incubating inside of Earth, becoming an independent threat of Season 3, apart from Invictus.
- Big Bad Wannabe: In spite of his sheer power in both his normal and Titan form, the Commander ultimately proves no match for Invictus' own power and presence. It speaks volumes that Invictus doesn't even need to fight Lord Commander itself, as Ash easily defeats him when he confronts her and Invictus directly. When the latter is freed, it easily subdues and imprisons Lord Commander inside of the same prison that it used to seal Bolo in, intending to trap him there for eternity to rot while it escapes Final Space to wreck havoc everywhere.
- Blade Below the Shoulder: After merging with a Titan successfully, he can transform his arm into a stabbing blade at will.
- Blank Stare: When he first meets Gary in Chapter 2 and the latter tries one too many times to emphatically correct the LC's referral to him as "The Gary", the Lord Commander's only responds is to give Gary a hilariously deadpan glare.
- Blood from the Mouth: In Season 1, he coughs and vomits blood several times as his body slowly rots away due to his powers draining his life.
- Body Horror: The Lord Commander's body seems to be literally decomposing as a result of using too much of his power. Episode eight reveals that this was mostly due to his beating by Gary and his father, which seriously disfigured him. The light that's now inside of him is just finishing the job. His Titan form isn't exactly a treat to the eyes either.
- Came Back Strong: When he returns resurrected, not only is his Cast from Lifespan hiccup seemingly removed, allowing him to use his powers freely without weakening, but he can now also regenerate from having his skull blown open.
- Cast from Lifespan: His powers seems to absorb his health when he uses them. He gets progressively worse over the course of season one, being at death's door by the end of season one. This changes in the third season after Invictus empowers him further, removing this limitation.
- The Comically Serious: He's normally played dangerously seriously but his psychotic insanity mixed with his immaturity can lead to some funny moments, like just after ripping off Gary's arm.Gary: I AM GOING TO MURDER YOUR FACE OFF!
Lord Commander: (While wiping Gary's blood off his face) I will murder your face on?!
Gary: That doesn't make any sense! - Compensating for Something: Played for drama. Most of his self-destructive (and galactically destructive) actions are all but outright stated to be because he spent the first few decades of his life as a small, weedy nobody and is obsessed with never being that again.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: Just about every fight that involves Lord Commander largely consists of him either effortlessly restraining his opponent using telekinesis or outright utterly destroying them. Gary in pretty much all their one-on-one confrontations, the Arachnitects in "The Hidden Light", Ash in "One of Us", and Bolo along with an army of Titans in "The Dead Speak".
- Dark Is Evil: He wears black clothing and has charcoal-gray skin, and even his blood is black since his corruption, and he's an irredeemably evil little monster.
- Deal with the Devil: He's the Faust, having made a deal with Invictus after his death: resurrection, further empowerment and the promise of eventually being turned into a Titan, in exchange for his servitude to Invictus. Ironically, it isn't the Devil but the Faust who betrays the bargain, as he turns on Invictus the moment he sees a direct shot to becoming a Titan immediately.
- Deity of Human Origin: Not exactly "human" so much as "mortal alien who was originally mundane by the setting's standards", but the trope otherwise applies when the Lord Commander finally succeeds in his Godhood Seeker ambitions.
- Demoted to Dragon: Invictus resurrects him in Season 3, but while he's even more of a threat than before, he's been reduced to Invictus' second-in-command...until he betrays Invictus by assimilating with Earth's incubating Titan.
- Department of Redundancy Department: His name is just two different titles of authority.
- Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Him being merged with the Earth's Titan aside, the Lord Commander kills several Titans including Bolo himself. And judging by what he says, those instances were just warm-ups: his main target is Invictus itself.
- Dirty Old Man: Lord Commander is at least in his early 50s, and shows a very creepy attraction to Ash in Season 3, and attempts to coerce her into becoming his "protegé". He drops this completely when Ash joins Invictus, though.
- Dragon-in-Chief: While Invictus is much more powerful than him, it's still trapped inside of its prison, meaning it relies on the Lord Commander to do his bidding and find Mooncake so it can be freed.
- Dragon with an Agenda: He makes it plainly clear to Avocato that he has no intentions on helping Invictus in order to become a Titan. Once he saw that there was another way to fulfill his goal, he betrays Invictus on the spot.
- Drunk on the Dark Side: He was a normal guy until he was exposed to a wave of energy from Final Space, which gave him his powers. He believes he was purposefully chosen by the Titans and he's become a psychotic madman drunk on the power he wields.
- Dumbass No More: He was never a dumbass per se, but Season 3 reveals that Lord Commander can be surprisingly charismatic and manipulative as seen in "The Ventrexian" when he recruits Avocato, unlike Season 1, where he was mostly a petulant and extremely violent tyrant with a severe lack of subtly to his true intentions.
- Eviler than Thou: In "Until the Sky Falls", he seemingly manages to pull this on Invictus of all people. Once Lord Commander finds a way to become a Titan without Invictus' help, he betrays and defeats Invictus effortlessly before continuing on with his own plans. However, he only goes up against a dead Gary-possessed Invictus in this. "The Devil's Den" ultimately proves that the Lord Commander is on the receiving end of this trope, and once Invictus is freed, the Commander finds himself reduced to a non-factor after being sealed away in Final Space to rot for eternity while Invictus prepares to destroy everything in existence.
- Evil Former Friend: Gary learns in episode 8 that the Lord Commander was Jack, John Goodspeed's friend for twenty-nine years. Hilariously, when time travel shenanigans have John and Gary meet, John immediately takes Gary's word that his friend becomes a monster and father and son take advantage of time being frozen to beat the crap out of him.
- Evil Old Folks: He is at least in his late 50s, having served been in the Infinity Guard since Gary was a child, and is utterly evil.
- Evil Overlord: The Lord Commander is the tyrannical, space dictator of Tera Con Prime who hopes to expand his power.
- Evil Sounds Raspy: He has a harsh, guttural voice, which makes his laughter sound very sinister and threatening, he's at least a full generation older than most of the heroes, and he's one of the evilest characters on the show.
- Evil Wears Black: He's one of the show's main antagonists alongside Invictus, with a personal connection to the heroes, and he wears a robe that's almost as black as his heart.
- Fallen Hero: Implied. Episode 8 reveals he was a member of the Infinity Guard and John Goodspeed's copilot on the initial mission to close the breach that ended with John's death. The Lord Commander survived their ship being destroyed by a wave of Final Space, but was seemingly corrupted by the energy in the process.
- Fingore: Ash mangles his hand in "The Devil's Den" as payback for him doing the same thing to her earlier in Season 3.
- Force-Choke: He came dangerously close to killing Gary this way in "One of Us". Luckily, Gary uses his robot arm to murder Lord Commander's face off.
- From Nobody to Nightmare: He was originally just another member of the Infinity Guard and co-pilot to John Goodspeed but after being exposed to Final Space energy and Invictus' poisonous corrupting influence, he now controls an intergalactic empire and is now a threat to every living thing in the universe. Then he merges with Earth's incubating Titan to become one.
- Fusion Dance: He merges with Earth's incubating Titan against Invictus' orders to usurp the galaxy as a new threat.
- Giggling Villain: He chuckles, giggles, and snorts a lot when he believes he has the upper hand over his foes.
- Glowing Eyes of Doom: His eyes illuminate a bright yellow color whenever he uses his powers or when he is planning something.
- Godhood Seeker: His ultimate goal is to open the breach into Final Space, in the belief that the Titans will make him one of them, and let him be god over all dimensions. Turns out, he's mistaken. Invictus gets him to work for it by promising him the power of a God which he didn't achieve previously. Ultimately, Lord Commander tosses Invictus under the bus when he learns about a Titan incubating within Earth's core and manages to merge into it.
- Hero Killer: The Lord Commander is one of the most powerful beings in existence, with most people standing no chance against him. Only Mooncake has been shown to have enough power to temporarily stop him so far. In episode 6 he uses his psychic powers to plant a bomb on Little Cato, forcing Avocato to sacrifice his life to save his son. According to Nightfall, in hundreds of past timelines, the Lord Commander has always succeeded in murdering Gary.
- And, in "The Dead Speak", he uses his new Titan powers to murder Bolo.
- Healing Factor: Gains one in Season 3 after his powers are restored by Invictus. In "One of Us", he regenerates from having his face and brain blown off by Gary's robot arm.
- Hidden Agenda Villain: While he wants Mooncake's power to save his own life, he's also interested in breaking open a breach into Final Space for reasons that remained unknown until the first season finale. He believed the Titans would turn him into one of them and make him a god over every dimension.
- I Am the Noun: He has a habit of furiously declaring himself as "the Lord Commander", which he's done to Gary, Ash, and Invictus.
- I Have Your Wife: He forced Avocato to work for him by holding his son hostage.
- Insistent Terminology: Always calls Gary "the Gary". There is actually a reason for this: Gary Goodspeed has been the linchpin to stopping Invictus across multiple dimensions. Gary Goodspeed is thus "The Gary (of this dimension)."
- It's All About Me: The Lord Commander is a very selfish tyrant. It’s shown when he chokes a servant for bringing the wrong snack to him, attempting to wreak havoc on the universe so he could become a god, and demanding his generals to kill their own children to show their loyalty to him.
- If You're So Evil, Eat This Kitten!: He forced his top lieutenants to personally murder their first-born to prove their loyalty to him.
- Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Nightfall kills him this way at the start of season 2.
- Jerkass: He's such a huge, sociopathic asshole that merely calling him a Jerkass would be a huge understatement. Gary even calls him a jerk face in an episode recap.
- Just the First Citizen: He's only ever referred to as the Lord Commander. Chapter Eight reveals a little bit of the Lord Commander's backstory such as his name actually being Jack, and that he used to be an Infinity Guard himself, having worked with John Goodspeed for 29 years.
- Klingon Promotion: He took over Ventrexia after having the king and queen assassinated by Avocato.
- Knight of Cerebus: Unlike his Pilot counterpart, Lord Commander is a terrifying threat to the heroes, and while he may have an occasionally humorous moment, he's mostly portrayed as a psychotic, bloodthirsty monster. While he is a lot more cheerful and energetic post-resurrection and no longer the true villain, he's still as much of a threat as before and proves it by killing the remaining Arachnitechs mercilessly. Further down the line when he becomes a Titan, he renders Kevin Van Newton's sacrifice pointless by destroying the KVN Net, kills Bolo and several Titans and damn nearly kills the Team Squad as well, setting up Season 3's Downer Ending.
- Laser-Guided Karma: A well-earned twofer in the season 3 finale:
- Nine episodes after he horribly mangles her fingers, Ash gets him good by breaking his own and besting him with ease.
- He christens his newfound status as a godlike monster by killing Bolo, who spent countless lifetimes in a great big cubic prison. The first thing Invictus does after being let free is rub in how worthless and redundant he's become by stuffing him away forever in that very same prison.
- Laughably Evil: Downplayed. His occasional ineptitude, short height and awkwardness are occasionally used as a punch-line, but the numerous horrific atrocities he commits are not played for laughs, and even then the joke is usually at him and not from him.
- A Lighter Shade of Black: Averted. Unlike Invictus, he wants there to be a multiverse left for him to rule over after he achieves his dream of becoming a Titan, but he's still not in any way presented as more sympathetic nor redeemable than Invictus despite ultimately being the lesser threat, and the possibility of him aiding the heroes' goals is not in any way broached by any side after he becomes a Titan and intends to destroy Invictus for his own ends.
- Light Is Not Good: The eyes of the universe refer to his power as "light" and that it is certainly consuming him, though for the most part he doesn't look very bright, literally and figuratively. Though his powers actually come from the very shadowy and dark-looking Invictus. In the final season he does become a titan, which are described as luminous beings and about as "light-aligned" as things get in this universe, but he doesn't get any prettier.
- Manipulative Bastard: Pretends to be a mysterious protector trying to help Little Cato escape imprisonment, only to reveal he was just manipulating him into broadcasting his coordinates to lure Cato's father into a trap.
- Mind over Matter: Can telekinetically move people, as well as manipulating their bodies, as well as with any physical objects and other things such as lasers.
- Mister Big: He is 3 feet tall and the undisputed ruler of Tera Con Prime.
- Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal: It's implied that his betrayal of Invictus and violation of their deal is partly influenced by Invictus tormenting him and throwing him around when he disappoints it.
- Mythology Gag: His original, non-corrupted self looked more like his design in the pilot, albeit with more colorful skin.
- The Napoleon: He's pretty short for being a galactic dictator. A human who meets him in the flesh makes the mistake of laughing over the Lord Commander's stature. This mistake proves to be his last.
- Nightmare Face: Comes with his profound sadism.
- He pulls off a damn good one in Chapter Six as he attempts to goad Avocato into killing his son during the flashback, complete with veins and a grizzly Slasher Smile.
- As the first season draws more and more to a close, his face degrades into a gross, rotting mess thanks to his own powers taking an increasing toll on his being.
- Upon finally becoming a Titan himself, his mug has veins permanently sticking out of his cranium and a partly-melted mouth, perhaps helping to highlight that he was never meant to achieve such a status to begin with.
- Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist: He tempts Avocato to his side with the promise that they could create a universe where death no longer existed, and he claims to be the "savior" the galaxy needed. However both his actions and dialogue in season 1 make it clear that ultimately his main concern is himself and his own well-being, and any actual noble intentions he may have are second at most.
- Obliviously Evil: In episode 3 he has a self-pitying rant where he says he doesn't understand why bad things happen to him because he's a "good" person. Moments later he strangles a servant to death for getting him the wrong snack.
- One-Man Army: He slaughters multiple monsters with very little effort in "Chapter 5", killed three Architects in seconds in "The Hidden Light", and wiped out an entire army of Tryvullians in one flash of light in "The Ventrexian". And finally, once he ascends to Titanhood he makes rather short work of Bolo and an assortment of other Titans that Invictus throws at him for his betrayal.
- Permafusion: He goes through a permanent fusion in Season 3, merging himself with the Titan embryo in the Earth's core and bursting free of the planet with a Titan body. An enraged Invictus, upon confronting the Titan Lord Commander, at first sets several of its Titan thralls on him, then after Ash overpowers him with ease, Invictus neutralizes him by locking him inside the same cube that once held the trueborn Titan Bolo.
- Pet the Dog:
- Despite his reputation as a clear Bad Boss, Lord Commander is surprisingly amiable towards one of his henchmen, Jeff, and congratulates him on a job well done in "Chapter 5". In "The Remembered", he can be heard once again complementing Jeff for his loyalty.
- In "One of Us", there is a strangely warm, comforting tone in his voice when he tells a terrified Ash that she is finally home and to stop fighting.
- Power at a Price: The Lord Commander has immense power, but every time he uses it he grows closer to death. After his resurrection this is no longer the case thanks to Invictus removing said limitation after empowering the Commander.
- Psychic Powers: He can levitate, telekinetically throw objects and even psychically invade someone's brain, either possessing them or sifting through their memories.
- Psychopathic Manchild: He can be surprisingly immature, temperamental and petulant at times, despite his status as a psychotic despot. At one point he strangles a subordinate for bringing him the wrong kind of snack, and other times he offers to play "games" with his victims, which ends with him viciously murdering them.
- Put on a Prison Bus: Season 3 ends with him being sealed away in the same prison Bolo was imprisoned during the first two seasons.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Downplayed, but his Glowing Eyes of Doom have a reddoish-yellow hue in Season 1. In Season 3, they have a more Supernatural Gold Eyes hue.
- Sadist: The smile on his face as he twists and mangles his victims says it all.
- Scary Teeth: He has sharp-looking, piranha-like teeth.
- Sealed Evil in a Can: His final fate as of Season 3.
- Shapeshifter Weapon: His Titan form has the ability to morph his arms into blades.
- Slasher Smile: He frequently grins in anticipation when he's about to do something nasty for any reason, baring his fanged teeth.
- The Sociopath: Has almost all the traits of a high-functioning sociopath. He has a blatant disregard for life and zero empathy for others, seeing everyone as tools or playthings to be used, he can be very tactful and manipulative when he wants to be, he spends far more time than he needs to torturing others at the slightest provocation just to alleviate boredom, and he solely cares about his own benefit such as his ambitions of apotheosis and multiversal domination.
- The Starscream: Betrays Invictus when he has what he desires most, the body and power of a Titan.
- Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome: He was the Big Bad of the first season, only to be quickly and unceremoniously killed by Nightfall before the first episode of the second season is even halfway done. However, this isn't the end of him as Invictus takes his remains before he fully dies and resurrects him in the third season to capture Mooncake for it.
- Supernatural Gold Eyes: His Glowing Eyes of Doom have a more golden hue in Season 3. This appears to be Art Evolution rather than an effect of being resurrected with his powers' original drawback eliminated, since his eyes are also like this in Season 3's pre-show flashbacks.
- Tears of Blood: In the final two episodes of season 1, his body gets so degraded that he starts weeping black tears.
- That Man Is Dead: Gary calls him by his old name, Jack, in an attempt to talk him out of his plans. The Lord Commander replies that Jack died the day he was chosen by the Titans to have their power.
- Took a Level in Badass: He is even more dangerous in Season 3 than he was in Season 1, as a result of Invictus restoring him back to 100%. Not only does he massacre the Arachnitects, the same primordial entities who created the Titans, as a mere character introduction, but he then proceeds to give Ash a Curb-Stomp Battle, defeating her in minutes by mangling her hand. In a rather amusing twist, him finally becoming a Titan actually seems to have made him weaker than he was normally, as seen when Ash effortlessly defeated him when he attempted to take out Invictus.
- Transhuman Abomination: In Season 3, he succeeds in his goal of becoming a Titan, by merging with the Titan fetus at the Earth's core.
- Unwitting Pawn: The first episode of season 2 implies that at least one of the Titans was using him to open the breach into Final Space. When Nightfall kills him, his body dissolves into energy and heads off into space, his master still having plans for him. Said master is revealed to be Invictus itself.
- Villainous Demotivator: The Lord Commander's preferred way of maintaining employee productivity is by either threatening his minions or their loved ones with painful death. His subordinates exist in a state of absolute terror of him.
- Villain Team-Up: Collaborates with Invictus in Season 3 after the latter promised to make Lord Commander a Titan if he captured Mooncake. Lord Commander eventually betrays Invictus after finding an alternate way to become a Titan.
- Villain Has a Point: In “The Ventrexian”, the Lord Commander accurately pointed out to Avocato that Ventrexia is basically a horrible planet where its people fight in 1,000 years war and they would either die or just fight in another 1,000 war.
- Villain with Good Publicity: Despite being a Bad Boss and Evil Overlord, Lord Commander is surprisingly beloved by his minions and the inhabitants of Tera Con Prime. Not only do they throw military parades in his honor, but his highest-ranking generals also went as far as to murder their own firstborn children out of blind loyalty simply because he ordered them to.
- Voice of the Legion: Whenever he gets mad or eager to hurt someone, his powers cause voice to take on a demonic reverb.
- We Can Rule Together: He offers Ash a chance to become his "protegzege" and train her to unlock her full powers in "One of Us". Ash refuses as she views her powers as a curse.
- Would Hit a Girl: He had zero qualms over mangling Ash's hands in Season 3.
- Would Hurt a Child: Uses Avocato's son as a bargaining chip and very blatantly threatens to kill him if he failed him again. This isn't the first time that he had no qualms with children getting killed. Chapter 6 reveals that in the past, he ordered his top generals to kill their own first-born offspring, and convicts Avocato when he refused.
- You Have GOT to Be Kidding Me!:
- His reaction after the Titans pull Earth into Final Space, utterly ignore his pleas of turning him into one of them, and Quinn destroys the breach, destroying his chances of realizing his goals.
- After Invictus resurrects and tells him that he has to hunt down Mooncake again to achieve their goals, Lord Commander is understandably frustrated and has this reaction.
- Your Days Are Numbered: Every time he uses his power, it slowly kills him. The reason he's chasing Mooncake is to find a way to save his life. Averted after his revival thanks to Invictus allowing him to use his powers without any backlash or strain on his body.
- Your Size May Vary: In Season 1, he's so tiny that Little Cato is roughly a head taller than him. In Season 3, he is noticeably taller than before, perhaps best seen in "The Ventrexian" whenever he stands next to Avocato.

- Voiced by: John DiMaggio (soldiers and officers)
- Undying Loyalty: They are surprisingly extremely loyal to Lord Commander, outright cheering after he announced that they would all die after he gained access to Final Space.
Viro
Viro / Bhero
- Voiced by: Coty Galloway
An alien cyborg who's often seen at the right-hand of the Lord Commander.
- Adaptational Badass: He seems to be based on the pilot's one-eyed henchmen. He's got some serious retooling, however, going from a bumbling, soft-spoken failure at balloon preparation to a Darth Vader-like war robot.
- All There in the Manual: His name, Viro, is never revealed in the series proper.
- Asshole Victim: Doesn't get very much screentime throughout Season 1 before he's killed, but since his only acts shown are verbally and physically abusing a teenage boy, good riddance.
- Boom, Headshot!: How he's killed by Little Cato.
- Cyber Cyclops: He has one, red, cybernetic eye.
- Cyborg: He's part alien and part machine.
- Evil Sounds Raspy: A cruel cyborg serving directly under the Lord Commander who has a wheezy, sepulchral voice.
- Jerkass: He treats Little Cato terribly as his prisoner and mocks him about his father.
- Surprisingly Sudden Death: Little Cato shoots him dead without warning. While not the most important of characters, it's still jarring how he dies without any warning, given that he's implied to be the Lord Commander's right-hand man.
- To Serve Man: When a human being tortured by the Lord Commander begs him not to kill him with his psychic powers, the Lord Commander agrees that would be rude, and has Bhero eat him instead.
- We Hardly Knew Ye: He shows up sporadically during the first season but never really gets a chance to do or say much before his death in the finale.
Terk
Terk

- Extra Eyes: He has a third additional eye between the two main ones.
Allies
The Order of the Twelve
The Order of the Twelve
A group referred to as "the eyes of the universe" that the Lord Commander goes to for information.
- Bad Samaritan: The Helpers have a reputation for, well, helping people. Yet when Gary and Avocato come to them for help to shelter Mooncake, they betray them as they're working for the Lord Commander and are worshippers of a Religion of Evil.
- The Blank: Helper Hula lacks any facial features, as do the statues flanking their chamber. As the assistant helper has a normal face and Helper Stevil only has an Eyeless Face, it seems like the higher one rises in their ranks the fewer facial features they retain.
- Extra Eyes: The Helpers have several eyes orbiting them, though the number varies.
- Gladiator Games: They pit monstrous creatures against each other in battles to the death in the Death-Cropolis. They refer to the games as "sacrifices" for mysterious beings called the Titans.
- Lotus-Eater Machine: They can imprison people in mental prisons where their own imaginations are used against them.
- Names to Run Away from Really Fast: One of them is named Stevil. The second Gary and Avocato learn that they're dealing with a man who has the word "evil" in his name, they reconsider taking him up on his offer of help.
- Religion of Evil: Their worship of the Titans seems to be this, especially since they force monstrous beings to fight to the death as sacrifices for them.
