What is known about Jeffrey Dean Morgan s speculated character Tek Knight in The Boys Season 4

Despite no confirmation, fans believe that Jeffrey Dean Morgan will portray the role of Robert Vernon, Tek Knight's most famed iteration. However, before Vernon, multiple individuals have donned the mantle. Vernon's Tek Knight was an Iron Man and Blue Beetle parody from Marvel and DC Comics and had already been referenced in the first and second seasons of the series. In the Season two premiere episode, the character's film, titled Tek Knight Lives, is mentioned. In the comics, the character is the founding member of the , which also hosted Soldier Boy at one point. Before he came to Payback, in the comics, Tek Knight led a team called Maverikz. Since the character does not have any superpowers, Knight relies on a suit of high-tech armor like Iron Man, which enables him to fly. However, there is a possibility that the Amazon series may award Jeffrey Dean Morgan's portrayal some superpowers as the Compound V is readily available for all Supes working for Vought. Although Tek Knight is beaten by The Boys at a point, Billy Butcher does state in one of the issues that the character is rather dull and does not seem to indulge in morally wrong activities like other Supes. However, Knight was quite homophobic. Later, he developed a large tumor in his brain, which somehow resulted in an overpowering urge to indulge in s*xual acts.

Powers and abilities

Vernon's take on the character relies on a technological suit as he did not receive Compound V to get powers. In terms of the abilities of his suit, it has a propulsion system that enables him to fly. Furthermore, the suit is equipped with several gadgets that assist him in crime fighting. Along with the gadgets, Knight equipped his suit with weapons and armor to help him. The suit also had the feature of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) blast that destroyed another tech in the vicinity. In the comics, the character also had a sidekick or protege called Laddio, who was the parody character of . Like Batman's protege Robin, Laddio was replaced multiple times, and one of them even became a Nightwing-esque character called 'SwingWing.'
