_________________________________________________________________

Character Bio - Once bound to the second Hobgoblin by N'Astirh, the demon who became known as Demogoblin eventually separated from his host and struck out on his own. Demogoblin was determined to earn salvation for himself by destroying all sinners... and his definition of "sinner" included almost everyone. His quest to purge the unrighteous led to strange alliances with other killers. He frequently teamed up with the monstrous Doppelganger and briefly even joined forces with Carnage. He also saved the city of San Francisco from a demonic invasion and sacrificed his life to rescue a child from a collapsing building, leaving behind a complicated legacy.

MARAUDING MINION
At the start of the game, choose a Unique Minion Hero you control. After revealing an Order Marker on his chosen Minion's card and taking a turn with his Minion, you may take a turn with Demogoblin, during which he cannot attack. You may not take any additional turns.

HELLFIRE VINDICATION 13
After Demogoblin moves with his Flying special power, you may choose a figure he passed over and roll the 20-sided die, adding 3 to your roll if the chosen figure has attacked Demogoblin this turn. If you roll 13 or higher, you may either inflict a wound on that figure, or inflict a wound on Demogoblin to inflict two wounds on that figure.

HELLFIRE GLIDER
When Demogoblin starts to fly, he will not take any leaving engagement attacks. After rolling defense dice for Demogoblin, you may move him one space for each skull you rolled.

Comic:

Spoiler Alert!

Not a ton of luck finding good images, on a quick scan. Will try to dig up more later.

Background:
Probably some sort of grungy cityscape - going that direction, I think like a ruined church would make sense for him?

[tcglkn]

Cool, really like how this design works and the synergy with Doppelganger. Nothing to comment now.

[Soundwarp SG-1]

Shame the Maximum Carnage team doesn’t have a 6th member. Then it could be an even spilt between Tickle, Japes, and I on art duties. Oh well.

Design still looks groovy

[Arch-vile]

Looking good.

[Ronin]

Glad people are digging it! He should round out the Max Carnage gang and build up the connective tissue between Carnage and Doppelganger - I think he'll also play nice with Crime-Master/Beast Man stuff, so I'll probably fiddle around with that in the initial too.

[IAmBatman]

Hellfire Vindication is pretty nifty. Very nasty.

[johnny139]

I think he's pretty solid, yeah, and feels like a demonic goblin. Seems little weird to have the power "Marauding Minion" and synergy with Minions but not be a Minion, though.

[Ronin]

?

He's not the minion, the Minion's the minion.

[Lord Pyre]

Still looks good! Vindication could be nasty, but we'll see. Maybe we'll want that last on the card after the movement ability because of the way they work together?

Minor typo here too:

At the start of the game, choose a Unique Minion Hero you control. After revealing an Order Marker on histhe chosen Minion's card and moving his Minion, you may move Demogoblin.

6 Defense and Life feels a bit high at those points.
Looks fun. Him and Doppleganger we're favorites of mine during the Infinity Gauntlet era.
