Slipknot

Slipknot is a DC villain and rope-based assassin whose expertise with cords and cables makes him a lethal combatant. He has tangled with Firestorm and served time on the Suicide Squad, placing him among some of DC's most dangerous operatives.

A villain who made his entrance in DC's beloved Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe in 1986, Slipknot is a Copper Age rogue who has lurked at the edges of some of DC's most dangerous corners for nearly four decades. His catalog footprint spans Firestorm and the infamous Suicide Squad, putting him in grim company alongside heavy hitters like Green Lantern, The Flash, and Firestorm himself. He's the kind of deep-cut DC character that rewards the dedicated reader — a figure who embodies the era's appetite for morally murky, expendable-feeling villains who populate Task Force X's brutal world. Small in appearances but rich in atmosphere, Slipknot is a genuine collector's curiosity for anyone who loves the shadowy underbelly of the DC Universe.
