Who is Rawhead Rex?

Rawhead Rex is a towering, primordial monster originating in Clive Barker's horror fiction — an ancient, savage creature of immense brutality who predates human civilization and embodies primal, unstoppable evil, adapted here into Marvel's comics continuation of Barker's visceral mythology.

Rawhead Rex lumbers out of Clive Barker's darkly fertile imagination and into Marvel's early-'90s Clive Barker's Night Breed, a series that brought the horror maestro's visceral, boundary-pushing mythology to the comics page. Debuting in 1992, this monstrous figure keeps genuinely unsettling company — sharing issues with the likes of Peloquin, Reverend Ashberry, and the morally murky Eigerman, a rogues' gallery that signals just how deep into Barker's singular universe this title plunges. With only a handful of appearances, Rex is a rare and concentrated dose of Copper/Modern Age horror comics at their most uncompromising — a collector's find for anyone who wants their funnybooks with real teeth.
