Paracelsus

Emerging from the dark, fertile imagination of the early '90s horror comics boom, Paracelsus made their debut in Hellraiser Nightbreed - Jihad #1 in 1991, brought to life by D. G. Chichester and Paul Johnson under Marvel's mature-readers banner. This is a character steeped in the brooding, transgressive atmosphere that defined Clive Barker's interconnected horror universes, sharing pages with the likes of Baphomet, Aaron Boone, and Lori Winston across both Jihad and Clive Barker's Night Breed. With only a handful of appearances catalogued, Paracelsus is a rare, shadowy figure — the kind of deep-cut discovery that makes digging through Copper Age horror back-issues so rewarding for collectors who love their comics strange and uncompromising.
