==History==
===Backstory===
Little is known about Kevin's past, only that he was hired by the Infinity Guard to create a Hyper Trandimensional Bridge. During this, he created the KVN units so they could protect the Earth from large threats, he would also meet Nightfall, who would tell him to built a ship for her.
Kevin would be working for 5 years on the KVN Net and the Hyper Trandimensional Bridge, during this, he would listen to all the recordings Gary Goodspeed made to Quinn Ergon as a way of spending his time resting, he would get a level of obsession towards their relationship to the point that he wanted to know every detail about them and how they met.
During these events, the Eaeth would be sucked into Final Space by a Titan and all the humans that were in there died except for him.
===Final Space===
Three months after being trapped within Final Space, Kevin would meet Gary, Quinn Ergon, and H.U.E. shortly after his KVNs abducted the former and brought him to his lab. He befriends the two, and seemingly recognizes Quinn, although Quinn says that they have never met, which confuses Kevin. He agrees to help the two find a ship, setting off with them to find a ship. On the way there, the group are attacked by a group of Mutant Land Fish, which they are able to fight off. While on the way to the ship, Kevin reveals the existence of the Hyper-Transdimensional Bridge, which Quinn believed that it could be their way out of Final Space. After obtaining the ship, which they named the Galaxy Two, Kevin reveals to Gary and Quinn that he had constructed the ship at the behest of Nightfall. Shortly after, Kevin leaves to go to London and finish the construction of the Hyper Trandimensional Bridge.
Kevin would later contact Gary, giving him an update on the Hyper Transdimensional Bridge. Despite some hiccup, Kevin reports that the bridge should be constructed within 10-30 days, much to Gary's dismay.
Kevin would later give the Team Squad information about how he was able to survive in Final Space by using celenium, which would help the Team Squad save Quinn when she was dying of Final Space poison.
Kevin would contact the Team Squad during Fox's funeral, where informs them that the Hyper Trandimensional Bridge is nearly completed and tells the Team Squad to come to Earth.
The Team Squad would later arrive to see the completion of the Hyper Trandimensional Bridge, but Kevin reveals the "wrinkle" he had previously warned Gary about; someone must activate the bridge on the other side of Final Space. Luckily, the Team Squad are able to convince Clarence to activate the bridge for them. With the bridge activated, Tribore Menendez, Quatronostro, and the many alien species trapped in Final Space are able to escape back into the main universe. The Team Squad are nearly about to leave as well, until Quinn stumbles upon a KVN Net in Van Newton's files. Kevin reveals that the KVNS were originally created to be Titan-killing superweapons. Upon learning this, the Team Squad opts to stay and use the KVN Net to cripple Invictus's Titan army.
Kevin made a pre-recorded message to guide Avocato, Sheryl Goodspeed, Biskit, and Little Cato on their mission to stop the Lord Commander before he merges with a Titan that was in the centre of the Earth. Later, Kevin would attempt to activate the KVN Net, but he discovered that Earth's magnetic field had become disturbed by the constant earthquakes, frying the signals used to activate KVN Net. Kevin says that they need another signal, revealing the only one to be in Wisconsin, so Gary and Quinn leave with Bolo to activate the signal, leaving Kevin alone with Ash and Mooncake. Gary, Quinn, and Bolo are successful in activating the signal, to Van Newton's joy. However, things went south when an army of Zombie Garys attack Earth and Kevin's lab. Kevin soon discovered that Avocato was preparing to launch the massive bomb in order to stop the Lord Commander when he reached Earth's core, which would likely lead to the Earth's destruction, so he told Ash and Mooncake the way out of his lab. Ash asked Kevin what he will do, Kevin says that, as "Earth's Most Visionary Roboticist", he was staying behind on Earth. Shortly after Ash and Mooncake reluctantly leave, Kevin, with a tear in his eye, finally activates the KVN Net. As the Gary Zombies invaded his lab, Kevin uttered his final words; "Salvation comes in the blink of an eye," seconds before the bomb explodes, resulting in his death in the ensuing explosion.
Unfortunately, Kevin's sacrifice would be rendered as pointless, as the Lord Commander became a Titan and destroyed the KVN Net in the process.
==Personality==
Kevin originally looked like he went insane after being in Final Space for 3 months with no one to talk with, however, Kevin still retains the Intelligence of a genius, as he still knows how to create machines and weapons.
Kevin also seemed to have somewhat of an obsession with Gary and Quinn's love for each other, as he went to their bed to ask about how they met.
