Inferno

Inferno is a superpowered figure inhabiting Erik Larsen's chaotic Chicago, first encountered when Savage Dragon launched as an ongoing series. A denizen of the rough, villain-and-freak-filled streets that define that universe, Inferno has crossed paths with Dragon and his associates across multiple related titles.

Bursting onto the scene in 1992's The Savage Dragon #3, Inferno is a creature of the Copper/Modern Age — born in the wild early days of Image Comics, when creators were rewriting the rules of superhero publishing. Co-created by Erik Larsen and Jeffery Scott, this character has woven through the rowdy, unpredictable world of Dragon's Chicago across an impressive 23-year span, turning up in Savage Dragon, Freak Force, and Savage Dragon Archives alike. Along the way, Inferno has shared the page with heavyweights like Dragon, Mighty Man, and Star — keeping genuinely notable company in one of indie comics' most enduring universes. With two key-issue appearances to their name, Inferno is exactly the kind of deep-catalog discovery that rewards the dedicated Image faithful.
