Man spends £30k on surgery to look like The Devil

Henry Rodriguez, from Caracas, Venezuela, splashed out £30,000 on multiple procedures in a bid to turn himself into the Marvel comic book madman/Devil.

Images show the 37-year-old's journey as he first gets his eyes tattooed black, has implants inserted into his head and then undergoes a painful operation to have part of his nose removed.

Rodriguez, who now calls himself Red Skull, has also inked his face with red and black and it’s unlikely he will stop the body modifications any time soon.

But despite his scary appearance, Henry insists he is still a loving husband and dad to three-year-old son, Aaron.

It’s clear from the photos that the family still lead a normal life, with Henry taking Aaron out for meals, carrying him on his shoulders and reading to him in bed.

Speaking of his surgery, Henry’s friend Pablo Hernandez, said: “He has loved comic books since he was a kid and always dreamed of being Red Skull, but never got round to doing it. “Then he met up with a brilliant surgeon who specialises in extreme body modifications and just knew that this was his opportunity.”

Red Skull was first introduced into the Marvel comic book series in 1947 as the Nazi arch-enemy to Captain America.

The supervillain has also made a more recent appearance in the 2011 movie Captain America: The First Avenger which starred Hugo Weaving as Red Skull and Chris Evans as the hero.
