Starz has revealed the newest baddie in the “Ash vs Evil Dead” and it’s Joel Tobeck’s “Baal”, a creature that is supposedly more powerful than anything Ash has faced in his long and horrific Deadite-slaying career. Below is a picture of said individual.
“When Baal is released from the underworld, our team will face an enemy more powerful then then any that have come before. One with bigger plans than just destroying Ash as well as a secret link to Ruby (Lucy Lawless).”
