Biography
Spike the Devil Man is the first Devil to appear, and is the strongest of Fortuneteller Baba's fighters before Grandpa Gohan appears.
Devils appear as enemies in Dragon Ball Online and Dragon Ball Heroes. Two specific Devil named Psi Devilman and Greatdevilman appear. They work for the Dark Makai army, with Psi Devilman and Greatdevilman as high-ranking members.
Devilman's Japanese name, Akkuman is also the name of the protagonist of another series by Toriyama, Go! Go! Ackman. However, these two characters do not look anything alike; this Akkuman looks like a short, red version of Future Trunks. This Ackman is also a devil, who kills humans to collect their souls and give them to the great demon king in exchange for valuable prizes.
The character Chivil from Dr. Slump is also similar to Devilman, resembling a baby version of him. He is also a devil, and comes out from Hell through a volcano to constantly attempt to kill the other characters.
