BIO:

Arkady Rossovich was a Russian youth who was subjected to government testing during the early days of the Cold War. Soviet scientists were attempting to create a deadly supersoldier, perhaps in response to Germany's Red Skull and America's Captain America. Arkady was given super strength and stamina, and outfitted with two carbonadium coils that retracted into his arms. Unfortunately, the tests also required him to drain the life force of others to remain active. 

Code named Omega Red, he was assigned to destroy Wolverine, then an American government agent, but was defeated. Having gone for too long without repowering, Omega Red fell into a coma and was believed dead. Decades later, Omega Red was revived by members of the Hand, the same ninja group that transferred Psylocke's mind to a new body. The sacrifice of their life forces sufficiently powered Omega Red, and he began a new mission to destroy Wolverine and any who would stand in his way.

Love him or hate him, you really can't deny the coolness factor of Omega Red... damn, what a badass-looking villain design with unique weapons and a menacing backstory. He's overlooked quite a bit in the comic world, but if you're an X-Men buff, you gotta respect this guy. Omega Red's badass fueds with Wolverine are legendary!

Omega Red's fighting game debut was expertly done by Capcom. His 2D sprite still holds up to this day as one of the best-looking. He's just so menacing and oozing with charisma. Omega Red's voice and moveset add so much to the character. He's also got one of the nastiest and coolest super moves of the entire Capcom versus series.... OMEGA DESTROOYYYER!!!!!
