Blue Devil is Dan Cassidy, a stuntman who, while wearing a blue demon costume on the set of a film shoot, is attacked by an actual demon whose magic fuses him to the demon suit he&#8217;s wearing.  Fearing he will be stuck in the exoskelton forever, Cassidy sought ways to separate it from himself.  Eventually he makes a deal with the demon Neron which transforms him into an actual demon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"607\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hicollector.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/bd2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hicollector.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/bd2.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.hicollector.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/bd2-222x300.jpg 222w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A side effect of the unnatural fusion of magic and technology turns him into something of  a magnet for supernatural occurrences.  And Cassidy soon finds himself a reluctant superhero as he combats them.  He eventually ends up with a spot on the Justice League roster.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hicollector.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/bd1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hicollector.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/bd1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hicollector.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/bd1-228x300.jpg 228w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blue devil aka Dan Cassidy uses a trident as his weapon.  Originally it was a mechanical device that he designed and built himself.  He later acquired the magical &#8220;Trident of Lucifer&#8221; which is the current weapon he uses today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blue devil first appeared in Fury of Firestorm #24 (June 1984).  That story leads directly to his title comic released in 1984 Blue Devil #1. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The name says it all here.
