Red Lantern Corps

Skallox

A Red Lantern with a violent past.

Skallox is a member of Atrocitus’s Red Lantern Corps. The opening ongoing-series arc explores his background alongside other members of the rage army.

Continuity: Main DC comics continuity; this profile follows the cited era rather than asserting a permanent present-day status.

First appearance
Final Crisis: Rage of the Red Lanterns #1 (2008)
Story history — History and later developments — spoilers

Skallox participates in the early Red Lantern assault aimed at taking Sinestro. Those appearances emphasize the terrifying collective force of the Corps. Red Lanterns #4 moves toward individual histories with a spotlight on Skallox, Zilius Zox and Ratchet. That issue is the route to his origin rather than treating later explanations as part of his first cameo.
