Doctor Silk is a fictional character in the Valiant Comics universe, and the arch-enemy of Ninjak. When Acclaim Entertainment bought VALIANT for $65 million, they rebooted the Ninjak series. However, the premise was different and Doctor Silk did not appear.
[edit] Description
Doctor Augustus Silk controls Comsat International, an international front for WEBNET, an organization dealing with illegal activities in technical, industrial and financial institutions worldwide. Silk, a crippled and disfigured recluse, uses the vast computer network at his disposal to manipulate human lives and destroy international finances. Ninjak and the Weaponeer Organization worked to stop Silk's schemes. Since the destruction of the Weaponeers, Silk's only obstacle has been Ninjak.
Ninjak's incredible intelligence begs for a challenge and Silk has proven to be such. These two adversaries have initiated a global game of chess, with human lives as their pawns. Silk has yet to determine Ninjak's identity, but he has vowed to see him destroyed.
[edit] History
A child genius, Augustus was routinely beaten by his father, Charles Silkowski. One night he tried to run away down the street but his father caught him. In the tussle Charles Silkowski fell backwards into a store window and bleed to death.
