Director Bones

Director Bones is the enigmatic head of the DEO (Department of Extranormal Operations), DC's government agency overseeing metahuman affairs. A skeletal-looking metahuman whose skin is invisible and whose touch secretes lethal cyanide, he operates in the shadows of superhero politics as a morally ambiguous authority figure.

Director Bones is a distinctive Modern Age DC creation who stepped onto the scene in 2001 courtesy of Jay Faerber and Paul Pelletier, and has kept genuinely rarefied company ever since — sharing pages with the likes of Superman, The Flash, Doctor Fate, and Bruce Wayne. Spread across series including The Titans, Enginehead, and Green Arrow over nearly two decades, this character occupies an intriguing corner of the DC universe that collectors with an eye for the unusual will want to explore. With a key issue among their appearances and a catalog footprint that rewards dedicated hunting, Director Bones is exactly the kind of figure who rewards the fan willing to dig a little deeper.
