Human beings! Soft, wet things! All I see in front of me is human beings! Some with all kinds of flashy powers, and strength. But still -- you are flesh and blood. Meat and bone. I am a creature of fire. Of stone. And ash! I am a death dealer -- Satan's right hand! You will not be able to stop me!

— Ishmael Gregor

Ishmael Gregor is the second Sabbac, a powerful enemy of the Outsiders empowered by six demons.

History

Ishmael Gregor was a Russian crime boss who sought more power. In order to obtain that power, he tricked Timothy Karnes (the former Sabbac) into taking part in a ritual that would transfer his magical abilities to Gregor. When the ritual ended up killing Karnes and destroying a bus full of innocent people, Gregor was granted the immense power of Sabbac.

Ishmael went on to fight the Outsiders a couple of times and was eventually trapped in Katana's mystical blade. He escaped and has been on the loose ever since.
