Satanas was a scientist native to Pluto. A thousand years ago, he committed crimes that were shocking even by Plutonians’ lax moral standards. Since Plutonians were effectively immortal, and Satanas was brilliant enough to escape any prison, the villainous scientist was placed on a rocket ship with no controls and launched into deep space. A thousand years later, in the 1940s, Satanas managed to gain control of his ship. Unable to find Pluto, he traveled to the closest planet he could see, which was Earth. Feeling that humanity was too primitive to put up any resistance, he decided to conquer it. Notes: Like Bogey Man and the Sorcerer and his Apprentice, Satanas bestowed some of his evil powers on Captain Milksop, but he was stopped by the Apprentice. On the covers of Red Band Comics, Bogey Man is shown confronting Satanas, though neither appeared in each other’s feature.
