The Red Skull (German: Roter Schädel) is an alias used by several fictional characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, primarily Johann Schmidt. The first Red Skull appeared in Captain America Comics #1 (March 1941), created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby.

The character has been adapted to a variety of other media platforms, including animated television series, video games and live-action feature films. He was portrayed by actor Scott Paulin in the 1990 direct-to-video film Captain America. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the character was played by Hugo Weaving in Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) and by Ross Marquand in Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Avengers: Endgame (2019).

 * Red Skull appears in Marvel's Spider-Man: Webbed Champion, voiced by Liam O'Brien. He serves as one of the main antagonists in the "Family Business" arc (along with Norman Osborn / Green Goblin), and has role in the Parker family's history, on which he is responsible for murdering Peter Parker's parents, leaving Peter and Teresa as orphans. His actions were covered by J. Jonah Jameson as a accident for protection money until, in "The Parker Errand" Spider-Man, Mockingbird and She-Hulk exposed the truth through evidences collected from Truman Marsh. While Jameson was declared guilty in his trial and given a life sentence in prison, Red Skull was declared a public menace, and was reportedly being pursued by superheroes all over the world. He made his official appearance in "Seeds of Life", on which he led Hydra for a new threat of war against America using Madame Viper's army of super clones. This led him and Hydra to conflict with the Avengers (who arrived in his island to stop him), Spider-Man and his team (who arrived there to finish Richard and Mary Parker's last project and apprehend Osborn), and Madame Masque, who sought to siphon knowledge of his and Tony Stark's technology from their minds; because Stark and Hydra together control 81% of the world's technology, she intended to couple them with her own to become unstoppable and take over the world. Madame Masque's plan was foiled when Spider-Man and Stormranger freed Iron Man by redirecting Green Goblin's glider towards Red Skull, tackling him into Madame Masque's ship. Wounded and tangled in the ship's wires, Red Skull attempted to escape until Arsenal obliterated the ship, incinerating the Red Skull, de-powering Madame Masque and freeing Otto Octavius from her mind control in the progress. Red Skull's death caused Hydra to be more vulnerable without his technological knowledge.
 * Red Skull is mentioned in Marvel's Superhero Adventures: Infinity War. Overhearing from Tony Stark that Steve Rogers is married to Carol Danvers and has children with her, Peter Parker wondered if Red Skull knew anything about this fact; given that Skull knew Captain America's identity since their time in World War II. Stark replied that Skull did not, due to his belief that, because "Captain America is a man out of time", Skull believed that Rogers had nothing important (besides his fellow Avengers or other superheroes) which he might fear to lose.
 * Red Skull appears as a major antagonist in Marvel: All New, All Different Chronicles, voiced by Liam O'Brien.
