Red Skull's weapons

The Red Skull's most infamous weapon was his so-called "dust of death." The chemical composition of this powder is unknown, but it kills a victim within seconds of making contact with the victim's skin, causing the skin on the victim's head to tighten, shrivel, and take on a red discoloration, while causing all the hair on the victim's head to fall out. As a result, the victim's corpse appears to have a "red skull" for a head. While committing murders with this weapon, the Skull often hummed, whistled, or played a tape recording of Chopin's funeral march, which was also the Skull's trademark music when he committed murders in the early 1940's. The Skull could fire his "dust of death" from a special handgun. The Red Skull usually conceals this weapon within his cigarette holder or a specially modified handgun. He has wielded sophisticated side arms, including laser beam weapons.

Red Skull's equipment

The Red Skull has often used special equipment such as the robotic Sleepers and the Cosmic Cubes., and exotic technology such as his hypno-ray or teleportation devices. He often wears protective armor.
