Red Volcano

Red Volcano debuted in DC Universe #0, and returned in 2009's Red Tornado mini-series. ==Fictional character biography==

Red Volcano was created by Professor Ivo and T. O. Morrow. Ivo uses him as an aide during his tenure as part of the Secret Society of Super Villains. He helps Ivo in collecting soil samples from various regions of Earth where acts of genocide took place over the past 100 years as part of a plot to create a golem called Genocide. Following the Final Crisis event, Red Volcano joins Cheetah's Secret Society of Super Villains. In the Red Tornado miniseries, it is revealed that Red Volcano is one of four androids created by Ivo and Morrow alongside Red Tornado, Red Torpedo, and Red Inferno. He, Red Tornado, Red Inferno, and Red Torpedo respectively represent the classical elements: earth, air, fire, and water. Volcano lacks the humanity or conscience that his "siblings" have, going so far as to torture his creator into revealing the whereabouts of the other two robots. When Morrow tells him where Red Inferno is, the Volcano heads for the child robot's home neighborhood and mercilessly murders Inferno's adopted parents and destroys the entire neighborhood. ==Powers and abilities==

Red Volcano possesses heat generating abilities and wears a cape made of molten rock. He also has super-strength and flight, and also demonstrated geokinesis to a great extent. ==In other media==
