Mark takes him on a spaceship after Andressa reveals that she will die soon. Young Oliver is only able to say "brother" to Mark.

### Time on Earth

Too fast for him, Oliver intervenes after they stop moving. Mark knocks Oliver away from Conquest and attempts to keep Oliver from the battle. Oliver comes back only to have his arm broken and nearly beaten to death. He is taken to the Pentagon to heal from his injuries.

Oliver charges towards Conquest only to be slapped away. He is attacked by Lucan until Nolan intervenes. Oliver lands a blow on Lucan, but due to his lack of time in space, he heads to a nearby habitable planet. Conquest charges for him but Mark stops Conquest. Oliver flies over after seeing a crash only to see Conquest dead and his brother nearly killed in the process of their battle.

Nolan arrives to the scene and the duo head to see Debbie. While staying at Nolan and Debbie's, he is annoyed by them having sex, much like Nolan was with Allen and Telia. Allen is there and Allen asks that Oliver leave them in private. He notices that Allen and Nolan are fighting. He offers his aid to his father and attacks Allen. Security arrives to the scene and Allen explains that he plans to release the improved Scourge Virus into the atmosphere of Earth. After Allen explains that he will kill the Viltrumites and possibly sacrifice the Human race, Oliver agrees with Allen. Nolan explains his side and how the Viltrumites will change because as Earth changed him. Oliver goes on to say that he has studied human history and humans are selfish. Nolan would attempt to Oliver, but refused after his battle with Mark. Allen attacks him and the duo head to Earth. When they arrived, they are greeted by Mark. Allen reveals his plan to Mark, much to Mark's disapproval. Mark explains to Allen about how this isn't much different than what happened to his race. Mark attacks him and Oliver attempts to stop him. Thragg appears before the trio and reveals that he knows about Allen's plan. Thragg offers a truce and explains that after the virus is dispensed and Allen is killed, they are back to the same situation. Allen reluctantly accepts, much to Oliver's disapproval. The Guardians of The Globe arrive and attempt to arrest Mark. They battle and Oliver manages to grab the virus dispenser from Allen's gadget belt. He flies to Earth, only to be stopped by Mark. Mark grabs the dispenser and Oliver battles him for it. They argue and Oliver accidentally shoots the fumes into Mark's face. Oliver rushes to catch him, but Allen stops him, citing his Viltrumite heritage could infect him too. Mark is taken into the Viltrumite warship to tested and Oliver waits in the lobby, worried about Mark. Oliver and Allen head to visit Tech Jacket, only to assist him in fighting an alien. They are saved by Eve; Allen, Oliver, and Eve head to Earth to help Mark, assuming Dinosaurus is trying to hurt him. Dinosaurus grabs and attempts to fight Oliver, Allen, and Bulletproof.

They arrive to the Grayson Household, with Mark furious at the duo for not helping stop the Flaxan invasion in London. Mark apologizes and Allen informs him that Oliver and him will be heading to Talescria. Oliver asks that Allen leave them and he cries, apologizes for infecting Mark. Mark accepts and Allen heads with Talescria with Oliver.

### Back on Talescria

Sometime after his departure from Earth, Oliver would meet a girl named Haluma, an alien with a lobster-like appearance. Six months after, he would age and don a new appearance, similar to his father's old Coalition outfit. He would arrive to see Mark and Eve with Terra. He offers to cook dinner for them with Mark accepting. He arrives to Mark and Eve's to introduce Haluma to them. Mark and Oliver talk about Haluma's appearance with Oliver commenting on how he saw humans. After dinner is finished, the four of them eat and Oliver leaves with Haluma. The night after, Oliver and Haluma hear about Terra's condition, concerned on how she doing. Mark yells at them, demanding to know what Haluma fed them. Haluma argues with Mark and Oliver breaks them apart until Eve arrives to tell Mark that Terra is fine. Haluma and Oliver leave the hospital.

After Mark is asked to finish off Thragg while he is weakened in his fight with Battle Beast, Oliver joins his side. They never find Thragg or Battle Beast in the aftermath of the battle, but Mark and Oliver are informed by a local that Battle Beast's body was burned in a public celebration, implying that Thragg was victorious. Later, they return to their spaceship where they find Space Racer and Thresha floating in a debris field. Oliver and Mark bring them in to the ship, and put them in medical stasis pods. Thresha breaks out of her pod and goes into a fit of rage over the death of Battle Beast. Mark and Oliver hold her down before Space Racer calms her down. Mark and Oliver meet with Allen about Thragg not being found. After learning that Allen's carelessness almost caused Terra's death, Oliver becomes furious at him. Allen invites them all to a movie later that night, and Oliver goes with Haluma. Oliver assures Eve that Terra will like the movie, but later Terra starts crying. Oliver apologizes and the next day patrols Talescria with Mark. They find an illegal Kanslok farm and kill a beast known as a "Rynax". Allen asks Mark and Oliver to go on a mission to defeat Thragg. Oliver is excited about the mission, until Mark reminds him that Thragg severely injured him that last time they fought. When they arrive, they discover that Thragg has vanished. In shock, they ask the Coalition's spy, who does not know where Thragg went either. Mark and Oliver split up to search. Mark wanders into a mysterious cave, and Oliver warns him not to explore it before their radio transmission cuts off. Mark's whereabouts would be unknown to Oliver afterwards.

### Post-Reboot

Oliver had gone through a traumatic experience while Mark was in his five year coma, but he has since returned to active duty. Oliver sees Mark and goes to see what's going on with him. Mark cries and Oliver comforts him. After the party, Oliver goes to his house and sees Haluma taking care of their twin children. He gives her a kiss and goes to the room. He reports to Thragg, revealing Oliver's double-agent status. Oliver later visits Allen in the hospital, and then says goodbye to Mark, who is going back to visit Earth. In the days of Allen's recovery, Oliver reports to him on Thragg's activities. Oliver later asks Thragg to meet in person.

### Death

Thragg contacts Oliver and asks that he prove his loyalty to the Viltrumite cause. Thragg reveals that he and two of his children are going to kill Mark and his family. He asks that Oliver do nothing about this, including warning them. Oliver begs Thragg to reconsider, suggesting that he could sway them to their cause, but Thragg's mind is made up. Thragg break contact just before Haluma comes in to ask why he was shouting.

Oliver later arrives on Khulthak to see Thragg threatening Mark's daughter, Terra. Oliver surprises him, and tells Terra to find her parents. Thragg gains the upper-hand and Terra tries to stop him, breaking her leg in the process. A furious Oliver fights back, claiming that Thragg really hates the Grayson family because they are the descendants of Argall, meaning that they are destined to be the leaders Thragg never will be. Thragg kills him in response. Mark avenges his brother's death by killing Thragg's son. Eve heals Terra's leg, and joins Mark in driving Thragg and his daughter away.
