Because of the massive danger he presents to anyone he comes into contact with, he spends most of his time imprisoned in Stryker's Island Penitentiary. He has been a member of the Suicide Squad, Superman Revenge Squad and Secret Society of Super-Villains. Parasite was created by Jim Shooter and Al Plastino, first appearing in Action Comics #340.
