Vandar Adg of the Blood Tribe, more widely known as Vandal Savage, is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. First appearing in Green Lantern Vol. 1 #10, he is said to be a Cro-Magnon warrior who became immortal after encountering a strange meteorite. For over 50 thousand years, he plagues the Earth as a villain and occasional conqueror, sometimes using different names but most often calling himself Vandal Savage. He is a brilliant and sadistic tactician with immense knowledge in various sciences and forms of combat, able to fight effectively against many heroes despite not having any superhuman powers beyond his ability to survive and heal from lethal wounds. Throughout history, his most frequent enemies are immortal or reincarnating heroes such as Immortal Man, Hawkman, Hawkgirl, and Resurrection Man, and is also a recurring foe of the Justice League. In 2009, Vandal Savage was ranked as IGN’s 36th-greatest comic book villain of all time.
