Gabriel the Devil Hunter is a fictional exorcist character in the Marvel Universe.
[edit] Fictional character biography
Gabriel learned of Franklin Richards' possession by Nicholas Scratch and went to the Baxter Building to perform the exorcism. He forced Scratch to reveal himself, and accompanied Agatha Harkness, Franklin, and the Fantastic Four to New Salem, keeping Scratch subdued on the trip. The group was captured by Salem's Seven, whose power was augmented by Scratch. Gabriel and Agatha Harkness were able to forge the Fantastic Four's love for Franklin into a weapon, and drove Scratch out.
Gabriel left before the Fantastic Four could thank him, and continued to be plagued by demons. He later fought Daimon Hellstrom, but was left a babbling idiot. Hellstrom left Gabriel in the care of the Gargoyle.
