History[]
Background Information[]
Rex is the result of a government experiment to create a superhero. Purchased from his destitute family at a very young age by a shadowy organization, he was taken away and enhanced with the ability to charge molecules to an unstable level of power, making any object explosive. After growing up, Rex escaped from that shadowy organization and sought out his family, only to discover they've had moved on and even had two more children. So he did too, joining the Teen Team and eventually developing a relationship with one of the members, Atom Eve.
At some point Rex eventually revealed himself to Eve's parents, and they allowed him to live at their house, for a whole year.[1]
Flaxan Invasion[]
Rex Splode throws Discs at the Flaxans.
When the Flaxans attacked Earth, Invincible is shot at, but Atom Eve saves him by setting up a force field. Robot tells Eve that enemy tanks would line up to kill her and she takes care of it, while Robot keeps telling everybody else what was happening. Dupli-Kate and Rex Splode continued attacking. Eve tells Invincible to take the old woman to a hospital since they had it covered. However, Robot said that it was possible they did not. The team started getting overwhelmed and was about to get shot at once again until the aliens started dying and leaving.
Rex greets Invincible calling him the "Iceman" for freezing during the invasion.
Eve and Invincible fly through the city and at one point, he worries that he had lost her, crashing into a billboard. They try flying again and fly through a bridge until a hole in the ground opens and Invincible meets Teen Team. When they get there, Rex makes out with Eve until he greets him, saying that they had won the fight without him, but Dupli-Kate reveals that it had been because the aliens died. Robot greets Invincible, as well as Dupli-Kate. Robot tells the team about the Flaxans and asks Invincible if they could count on him to help in the future. He asks Robot if he is sure, but agrees later.
Rex got jealous when Atom Eve and Invincible arrived together, but they told him they go to the same school.
Rex asks Eve and Invincible why they had gotten to the top of a building together, and Eve reminds him that they go to the same school and tells them that he had never gone to high school. Robot tells them to focus since the Flaxans were back, but this time it seemed they had found a way to resist the timestream. Eve asks Mark if he was ready, and he unconfidently says that he was. Teen Team attacks the aliens, who were fighting with superior technology than they were. Eve was able to drive many of them back, but had something thrown to her face which covered it. Mark deflected beams thrown at him by cannons and was taken out by a kind of glue which did not let him move. Robot tells the team that the Flaxans seemed to have used their time wisely. When the Flaxans' leader was about to kill Eve, Invincible let out a yell which blew everything at a certain radius away from him. He punched the Flaxan leader, who started aging once his bracelet broke and saved Eve. The team realized they had to destroy the wristbands, and the aliens started dying soon after, which forced them to leave. Rex told him that he took everything he had said back, and congratulated him, followed by Eve.
Teen Team rushed to fight Flaxans only to be saved by Omni-Man.
The Flaxan army invades the city once again, and Robot tells Teen Team that the Flaxans were now immune to the timestream, and they should consider the city lost. He tells them that he will contact Cecil and request a nuclear response, but everybody disagrees.
Invincible starts fighting the army, but is swiftly brought down and punched repeatedly in the face by the leader. Omni-Man arrives and starts defending the city, resisting all the attacks thrown at him and sending the enemies back where they had come from. However, when the leader looked up at Omni-Man once more, he punched him and went into the portal with him. Teen Team was shocked and found out that Omni-Man was Invincible's father.
Caught in the Act[]
Eve was angry to see Rex cheating on her with Kate.
Atom Eve makes it to Teen Team's headquarters, where she sees Dupli-Kate, who was acting suspiciously after a shower, having missed the funeral. Eve takes a look inside the shower and sees Rex moaning and kissing Dupli-Kate's twins, which makes her furious. However, Kate tells her that Rex had told her that she was now dating Invincible, which she says is not true.
Eve faces a very strong man at the tryouts, and defeats him quickly, showing a lot of anger. Invincible asks Rex Splode what was going on with her, but he simply mentions he does not know.
Recruited into the Guardians[]
Robot announced the new Guardians.
In the end, Robot introduces the new Guardians: Black Samson, Shrinking Rae, Dupli-Kate, Monster Girl, which makes Rex laugh since she was small, but Monster Girl asks if there was not a dick size requirement. Rex gets angry and makes his arm light up, but she punches him with a huge arm before he could do it. She transforms into a big green human-like being and hits him once again. Rex gets angry and uses his powers, but his powers turned out to be useless against Monster Girl. As she punched Rex, Invincible stopped her and told her to cut it out, but was simply thrown in another direction. Angry, he flies in her direction and hits her so hard she changes back into a little girl. He apologizes for having hit her, but she says that it is fine since she always got angry when called a little girl, also apologizing to Rex for her dick joke.
Robot once again introduces Monster Girl as a Guardian and tells them that Rex would also join once he recovered. After that, he mentioned that Atom Eve would be the last member, telling them that he would be announcing it publicly later. Eve told him that she could not be on the same team as Rex and Kate and leaves.
Robot tells the new Guardians that when forensic investigations concluded, they would move into the Guardians' headquarters. He tells them their schedule and Rex complains that their training was too early, and they did not even need it. However, Robot tells him that they are no longer Teen Team and Black Samson tells him he needs experience. Rex points out that if Black Samson had not lost his powers, he might have been able to help the past Guardians, which angers him. Black Samson tells him to watch it, and tells Robot they needed a leader they could look in the eye and not ones and zeros, saying that he could be the leader instead. However, Rex once again mentions that Black Samson had lost his powers and wondered why they needed to put up with him.
Shrinking Rae points out that teams needed teamwork, which Robot agrees to. Everybody leaves and Black Samson congratulates Robot sarcastically. After everybody left, Monster Girl told Robot that she could not do three combat exercises a day, but Robot said he needed the team operational. Monster Girl tells him that whenever she transform, she gets younger and even used to go by Monster Woman. Robot apologizes and sympathizes, but Monster Girl believes there was no way he could understand since he was a Robot. From above, Omni-Man observes, describing what he had seen as pathetic.
Eve broke up with Rex definitely when he tried to apologize.
Eve takes down her pictures with Rex and cries as she does so. When she goes outside, she sees fireworks and makes some of her own while smiling. She meets Rex, who tells her he knew he had screwed up, but did not know why since he loved her. He asks for a do-over, but Eve wishes him luck with his new team and leaves.
Robot is interrupted from watching the Mauler Twin work by Rex, who welcomes him to the new Guardian's new digs. Black Samson mentions it is good to be home again, which annoys Rex since he does not enjoy hearing him say he was an original member of the Guardians of the Globe. Monster Girl tells Robot she is nervous, and Robot tells her that he is as well. Cecil walks in and tells them to not be surprised since it was their job. Rex tells him that he had missed a spot when cleaning blood, but Cecil tells them that he had left that there as a reminder and would get cleaned off when they proved themselves to be worthy of the heroes that had come before. He is radioed, told that Omni-Man wanted to see him, so he leaves. Monster Girl asks Rex if they are cool and he says they are since she had beaten him up in front of assholes. Robot walks up to Rex and tells him not to let his personal life to meddle with his professional one since it was his fault they were alienating Atom Eve and did not want it to happen with Monster Girl. Rex tells him that when he grew a pair, then he could tell him how to swing his. However, Robot mentions that he was giving him an order, patting him on the shoulder with a needle which slightly hurt Rex.
The new Guardians of the Globe celebrate a victory against the Lizard League. They all celebrate with beers except for Robot and Black Samson, who emits a high frequency, which shatters their bottles. He tells them that people were in the hospital because they had not fought as a team. They go through the fight and Black Samson lectures them on what they could have done to save lives, but Rex was unhappy and told him they had done their best and won.
Battling Machine Head[]
Later, As Mark tries getting up while taking down Machine Head who had hired supervillains, he is thrown once again. Machine Head celebrates, but mentions he was getting a signal as the Guardians of the Globe show up. They mention that Cecil had gotten an anonymous call and would take it from there.
Machine Head tells his supervillains to kill the Guardians, and they swiftly defeat them. Battle Beast mentions he believed Earth had worthy opponents and told Invincible that killing him would be an act of mercy. Black Samson tries to shoot at him, but fails and Invincible is struck in his stomach and stops responding. Black Samson gets up and runs toward Battle Beast, who rips his hand from his wrist and throws him, cracking his head. Monster Girl tries to defeat Battle Beast as well, but is also swiftly defeated.
The Guardians decided to work together after Invincible, Monster Girl and Black Samson were gravely injured.
Robot shoots at him and while the Guardians looked at their fallen friends, they told the supervillains that they had messed up. Working together, they share an intense encounter with the villains and defeat them except for Battle Beast, who says there was no honor in killing insects and leaves.
Robot holds Monster Girl after seeing she was badly injured. Machine Head describes the events as strange and asks Isotope to get him out of there, but finds he does not respond and is hit by Rex. Mark awakens and Titan tells him that he did not mean for things to turn out the way they did before leaving.
Monster Girl is welcomed back by the Guardians, who hug her. Rex tells them all they should party, handing her a milk carton which has beer in it. Monster Girl asks Black Samson why he had gotten his powers back, and he tells her he thinks it was because he was putting up with Rex. Robot tells her he is glad she had recovered and tells her he would never let her die, but repeated the word die many times, which the Guardians in shock.
Revelation of Omni-Man[]
Cecil tells the Guardians to be quiet and sit tight until they were called. Rex is desperate and says they needed to know what was happening, which Black Samson agrees with. He asks if Robot can find out, but Robot did not respond. Rex hits the robot on the head until they are approached by the new Robot. He presents himself as Rudolph Connors, saying robot was simply a drone he controlled remotely. Kate asks how they could know he was telling the truth and Robot says they could ask him anything. Rex asks why he looked like him, but Robot told him to wait.
Rudy surprised the Guardians when he explained his story.
Rudy tells the Guardians everything that had happened, but Rex still wants to know why he had picked his body. Everybody thought it was wrong that he had not asked Rex first, but Monster Girl realizes that he had done it for her. Rudy explains that Monster Girl was slowly getting younger and he was trapped in a mechanical tomb, while she was stuck as well. Monster Girl goes through everything Robot had done and says that she needs time to process it.
Black Samson calls the Guardians attention and tells them he knew why they were on high alert. They see a video of Omni-man destroying the satellite.
The Guardians say they should help, but Cecil tells them to stay where they are until he told them to move because if nothing went well, they would be their last hope against Omni-Man. Rex is confused, but everybody confirms they heard what he did and they connect the dots and realize that Omni-Man was the one who murdered the original Guardians of the Globe.
The Guardians watch Nolan and Mark's transmission as they fight. Dupli-Kate suggests going to help them, but Rudy tells them that they needed to follow Cecil's orders and stay in the bunker since the battle was beyond their capabilities. Black Samson agrees, but Eve flies in, asking what was happening. Rex tells her that Omni-Man was fighting him, and Rudy says that he hopes Mark lives up to his name.
The Guardians and Eve watched Omni-Man fight Mark, deciding to help civilians hurt by the fight.]]The Guardians watch as the fight between Omni-Man and Invincible unfolds. Black Samson tells them to gear up because even if they could not stop the fight, they could save lives. Rudy tries to remind them of Cecil's orders, but Shrinking Rae tells him that they don’t care. Monster Girl walks up to him and reminds him he was not a Robot anymore.
The Guardians return to their bunker, exhausted. Rex walks up to the blood stain on the wall and begins to clean it, but Black Samson tells him that they hadn’t earned it yet. Rex tells him to fuck off, but as Black Samson grabs him, telling him to stop, the Guardians all get into an offensive position to defend Rex, which prompts Samson to finally believe that they felt like a team, and joins him in cleaning the blood off the wall.
New Leadership[]
One month after the Omni-Man incident, Rex and the rest of the Guardians are dealing with a giant creature attacking the city. After subduing the giant, Cecil appoints the revived Immortal as leader of the Guardians of the Globe, while Rex sarcastically applauds him for his obviously planned entrance, along with a new hero Bulletproof for more muscle. After insulting Bulletproof for his name, calling it obvious, he hits back at Rex telling him that his name “Rex Splode” sounds like some “grade-school shit” and asks if he needed help coming up with it, leaving Rex embarrassed.
In the aftermath of a battle Invincible had with the Mauler Twins and a mysterious man, Rex and the rest of the Guardians of the Globe arrive at the scene, stating that Invincible really lives up to his name considering he survived an explosion mostly unscathed. Rex along with Cecil reassure Invincible that he was fighting an unprecedented threat, while the latter laments on the outcome of the fight.
Taste of His Own Medicine[]
Rex was angry to see Kate cheating on him with the Immortal.
After a training session with the Guardians, Rex is completely tired out, complaining to the Immortal about his harsh methods, with him only responding by saying they need to get used to it. Rex would later go for a shower where he would hear Kate, when he tries to flirt with her he would find her along with the Immortal making love to each other, similar to how Eve learned about Rex and Kate. When Rex insults the Immortal for his relationship with Kate, she simply claims that they were never a couple, but she and the Immortal are, leaving Rex perplexed and a little jealous.
Meeting Shapesmith[]
Rex along with the rest of the Guardians were sent to stop an attack on a bio research lab in Dallas that was being orchestrated by the Lizard League, during their mission they encounter what seemed to be another Rex. With Rex immediately blaming Robot before the imposter reveals himself to be another superhero by the name of Shapesmith. After defeating the League with Shapesmith's help, he gets shown around their base of operations by the Immortal, with Rex sarcastically saying that he should show him the shower, obviously still bitter about last time. Robot is unconvinced that they should take into their ranks right away, Shapesmith then tells him a fake origin story of how he got his powers and eventually gaining their trust to join the team.
After getting surrounded by Dupli-Kate's copies, she started to talk with Rex. Rex asserts that the Immortal is 2000 years old, with Kate stating that the sum of her life and the lives of the clones puts her at roughly the same age. She also clarifies that he's the only person who has died as many times as she has, and it might not mean anything to him but is important to her. Something the Immortal understands and Rex doesn't. Shapesmith soon enters the room, interrupting their conversation to "run in a stationary location". Rex, still confused about his origin asks him where he really came from, however Shapesmith dodges the question and does a jog backwards on the treadmill.
The New Journey[]
Rex and Eve.
2 Months later, Rex was seen fighting Omniptonus, and helped defeat him. Rex then was seen along with the other guardians, discovering Shapesmith's identity, and decided on a plan to bring Atom Eve to the team. He goes to her house, at first Eve questions why he's here, Rex admits that everyone has made mistakes including him, Eve is still undergoing constant stress from when she foolishly fought Killcannon and nearly got people killed. Rex admits she's has faults, like when she mentioned about the phase siblings, and teen team stuff but doesn't need to fret as the victims who were saved by the paramedics are doing well. This makes Eve happy and motivated to help the Guardians with the Sequids.
In the shuttle, Rex Splode tells the Guardians that they will succeed with Eve, but if they do not, the world be will destroyed.
King Lizard holding Rex at gunpoint
The remaining guardians, him, Rae and Kate watch as the shuttle leaves Earth, and three decide to do nothing but order a pizza, at first Rae says they should monitor earth alerts, but Rex denies as nothing will happen. This is proven a false statement, as Cecil sends the three to deal with a missile attack by none other than the Lizard League. With Rae's help the guardians were able to enter the facility and attack the League, Rex tells them their deaths are imminent as he needs to get a pizza real soon. Rae is able to kill Salamander, while Komedo Dragon kills Kate, and devours and kills Shrinking Rae within him, leaving Rex Splode alone to fend for himself.
'I'm practically...'
Rex, being the last Guardian standing desperately attacks with everything. He kills Iguana with a blasted charge he’d thrown and Komodo with a charge in his hand after being bitten off by him.

Lizard Kings steps out holding a gun to his head, where an angered Rex tells him to just do it. King Lizard shoots Rex Splode, and walks all over the corpse of the lizard league and Dupli-Kate, claiming to the US Government of his demands, then Rex is moving, still alive after getting shot in the skull. Trying to get his barings, but only notices King Lizard talking and charges multiple attacks upon him and rendering his face a grostque bloody pulp, and continues beating him senseless until the GDA arrives. Rex faints, and the agents inspects the corpse.
Rex in the hospital
Later Rex is seen under intense care, and seen in stable condition, who talks to Invincible of all people about super heroes. Rex admits he has finally seen the truth, and cannot believe it took him being blasted in the skull to realize he has been nothing than an bastard to people, and that both Eve and Kate deserved better then him. Rex then gets through Invincible and asks him if he's really talking about Super Heroing or something else, and Mark opens up about troubles with his girlfriend, Amber. After Mark leaves, Eve enters with Home Decorating Magazines - which Rex likes due to never having a home - and Eve and Rex talk, Rex mentions Mark and how he and Amber are likely breaking up, Eve asks why, but he's nose dived into his magazines.

Invincible arrives (having learned from Eve), and tries to help, but Rex wants to fight Octoboss himself. Rex throws countless projectiles, but is out of options, until his new hand opens a cylinder like weapon that he charges at Octoboss and successfully defeats him.
Afterwards, Rex and Invincible have a moment to talk about Amber, and Rex comforts him, saying that he owes him and therefore for one night, whenever Mark wants, he will cover for any disasters with help from the Guardians of the Globe so he and Amber can have a peaceful date.

Their talk is interrupted by Multi-Paul a goon from the order who learns it was because of Rex that Kate died, and nearly kills Rex, however they are all misinformed by timely arrival of the Immortal and Dupli-Kate who is alive and well.
Instead Rex squares up on Kate and Immortal for keeping the whole being alive thing a secret and rightfully flips the middle finger at them, and also gets mad at Multi-Paul. Invincible finally shuts up Paul and takes back to jail, where he reveals to them that two brothers escaped with the Declaration of Independence.
Much later, Rex takes a shower but is captured with any clothes by underground beasts, and helps fight the Guardians and other nameless heroes against Doc Sesmic.
