Killex

==Summary==
Once one of England's greatest neurosurgeons, Christopher Killex became a deranged serial killer who flayed his victims and rummaged through their brains in search of the soul, as he puts it: "the breath of life, something material, an infinitesimally small gland, an undiscovered capillary, a single red blood cell, a lonely cell". He was arrested after almost killing Dylan and, apparently, lobotomized. We later find out that he just pretended to suffer from the lobotomy and he manages to escape from his prison by faking a heart attack.

Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Genius Intelligence (Despite his derangement, he's one of the most renowned doctors in England, capable of . He managed to fool several doctors into thinking that he had been lobotomized, manipulating several people into helping him escape), Life Manipulation (Killex can "absorb" the life of those he kills, rendering it his own), Immortality (Type 2, 3 and 8, possibly 7. Killex can regenerate from severe brain damage, and cannot die as long as he has "lives" inside himself. Could still live on after seemingly dying and being mummifiedDylan Dog Issue 129) Regeneration (Mid. Regenerated from being shot through the heart, the brain and seemingly healed from having part of his brain removed as a way to lobotomize him), Stealth Mastery (Snuck behind Dylan's back, got into his house and left before he could even notice. Killed dozens of people in just one night, yet neither the police nor Batman could even come close to finding him. Snuck up behind Dylan unnoticed, despie him knowing he'd come), Mind Manipulation and Social Influencing (Can hypnotise people on the spot and force them to do his bidding, according to Dylan, he has an irresistable charm capable of overwhelming people and bending them to his will), Body Control (Can give himself a controlled heart attack at will), Natural Weaponry (Can use his sharp nails as knives), Weapon Mastery (One of the most skilled surgeons in England, he's a masterful user of chisel, knives and pretty much every cutting weapon), Preparation (Set up a decoy that'd pretend to attack a young Dylan from behind to lower his guard from the real ambushDylan Dog Issue 80), Corruption (Joy's son Chris was born with a deep link to Killex, allowing Killex to control him and even granting Chris minor supernatural properties, such as CAT scans not working on him), Minor Healing and Telepathy (Could speak telepathically to Chris, Joy's son, and cure him of his effect on him), Energy Projection (Released a wave of energy powerful enough to knock Dylan and another to the ground upon healing Chris), Resistance to Information Analysis (Killex is "empty": he leaves no trace and cannot be predicted the way a normal man would, leaving even the world's greatest detective stumped and necessitating Dylan's quasi-supernatural fifth and a half sense for connections, to find himDylan Dog / Batman Issue 3)
Attack Potency: Wall level (Severely hurt Dylan, almost killing him. Knocked down Joker, who was strong enough to smash a baseball bat with one strike and presumably threaten Batman, with a casual backhandDylan Dog / Batman Issue 3) 
Speed: Supersonic (Comparable to, if not faster than, Dylan. Managed to escape from a window in the time it took Dylan to blink) 
Lifting Strength: Unknown, likely Peak human (Should be comparable to Dylan) 
Striking Strength: Wall level (Should be comparable to Dylan)
Durability: Wall level (Should be comparable to Dylan) 
Stamina: Superhuman (Due to his immortality and regeneration, he can shrug off damage that would otherwise be fatal) 
Range: Standard Melee Range, Several Meters by throwing his knife 
Standard Equipment: A knife and a chisel 
Intelligence: Genius (Before going insane he was one of the brightest minds in London, so much so that the court agreed to lower his several life sentences to just 20 years going off of the possibility that he could recover and go back to his research, despite biting off an officer's arm in front of the jury. Managed to fool several experts into thinking that he had been lobotomized, putting up an impeccable act. His mind is so acute that it even has effects on the outside world, granting him a sort of influence that compels people to do his bidding, when it doesn't work, Killex has no problems manipulating them conventionally)
Weaknesses: Killex is completely deranged and obsessed by his search of the human soul. His regeneration will presumably stop working once all of his "lives" are depleted.
