Fictional Character Biography
Josh is an incubus who was born to two members of the Cult of Asmodeus. He and his twin sister Angela both bore the mark of the cult but Josh was to be the herald. When he could, Josh officially joins the cult but is unable to persuade Angela to do so. Josh undergoes a ritual that gives him his incubus powers. These powers mean he must drain the life-force from others in order to survive. This process leaves nothing left but their clothing. Later, Josh becomes disenchanted with the cult and leaves. His parents (who were members of the Enclave) were sent to kill him. However, he killed them instead.
At some point, Dimensional Man was recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Howling Commandos unit for the supernatural unit. He was with the commandos when they took part in fighting the forces of Merlin.
Dimensional Man later appeared in Monster Metropolis and drained the energy off of the sleeping monsters. Werewolf by Night and N'Kantu, the Living Mummy tried to arrest him, but Dimensional Man easily shook them. However, Morbius, the Living Vampire and Manphibian were ready and sucked Dimensional Man into a containment box. Morbius was about to release Dimensional Man into a larger containment cell only for the general power to go out causing Dimensional Man to be stuck in the network of pipes within Monster Metropolis.

Famous quotes containing the words fictional, character and/or biography:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“The first thing to be done by a biographer in estimating character is to examine the stubs of his victim’s cheque-books.”
—Silas Weir Mitchell (1829–1914)
“As we approached the log house,... the projecting ends of the logs lapping over each other irregularly several feet at the corners gave it a very rich and picturesque look, far removed from the meanness of weather-boards. It was a very spacious, low building, about eighty feet long, with many large apartments ... a style of architecture not described by Vitruvius, I suspect, though possibly hinted at in the biography of Orpheus.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
