Powers and Abilities[]
- Cyborg Physiology: After being resurrected as a cyborg, the only human part left of Donald was his brain, with the entire body structure being replaced by a cyborg body covered in fake skin to preserve his human appearance.
- Superhuman Durability: With a cybernetic body made of metal, Donald is more resistant than any human being and can survive things that would kill a normal person. He only came out with the fake skin torn off part of his body when the GDA was attacked by Flaxan Invincible and at the end of the war only half of his cybernetic body was destroyed, which according to Brit was in better condition than the other heroes.
- Superhuman Endurance: With a cybernetic body made of metal, Donald no longer feels any pain or discomfort, even if his fake skin is ripped off or cut by a knife he doesn't even react, at the end of the Invincible war when only half of his body remains he is calm without showing any discomfort due to the absence of limbs.
- Resurrection: Whenever Donald is killed, GDA revives him in a new cybernetic body without awareness of his previous death, preserving his other memories in order to preserve his identity.
