History: (Demon III #40) - Rectomm ran the Southside Crips Gang in hell, and they feuded with Brandor and Etrigan's North-Hell Bloods. The Bloods ended up massacring the Crips, and to add insult to injury Etrigan ate Rectomm's brother, fed his mother to the Hell-Gerbils of Acheron and stole his girl Smega. Ages later Satanist biker Johnny Basterson and his gang the Marlons broke into a church and desecrated it to summon Brandor. Johnny asked to be possessed in order to raise Cain, and Brandor was happy to oblige. Etrigan investigated the desecrated church, and smelling a familiar scent summoned Rectomm to confirm that Brandor had left Hell. Rectomm was still furious at Etrigan and came at him with a switchblade. Etrigan severed his hand and convinced him to talk before sending him back to Hell.

(Demon III #51 (fb)) - Rectomm replaced his severed arm with an enormous switchblade, and after meeting his old gang fabricated a story about ripping off Etrigan' head and shoving it up hi rear for daring to disrespect him. He then broke out in a musical number about when he fell in love with Lady Smegma. Etrigan was nearby, and afterhearing him, put a lie to his stories, ripping Rectomm's gang to ribbon and decapitating Rectomm after ripping off his switchblade arm.
