Early life
When Alex was approximately 8 years old, he was already expressing desire to be a superhero like his father and was upset with the fact that Danny got powers before he did.

As Redshift
5 years prior to the start of the comic, Alex's father died in the Supercide while protecting Danny. At some point after his death, Alex took over as Redshift. When Alex was about 19, Danny was caught during a recon mission and injured by Steel Coyote. Alex arrived in time to save Danny's life, though he was still severely injured. Alex considers using his powers to be a responsibility and thinks not using them would be a waste.
