"The Evangelist" is a villain which was created apparently out of nothing by the powerful demon Blackheart. The Evangelist was one of four villains (known collectively as "Antitheses"), all of whom were created by Blackheart to be the opposite of the dark heroes he was facing: Venom (Flash Thompson), Red Hulk, X-23, and Ghost Rider (Alejandra Blaze).
The Evangelist was created to be the opposite of Venom (Flash Thompson).
Although the Evangelist was created in the likeness of a Protestant clergyman, he was not truly a Protestant or a clergyman or even a human being.
The Evangelist used an evil Bible as a weapon.
