Skeleton is a character from the 1988 OVA Dominion Tank Police. Appearing in Acts 3 and 4, he is the leader of a private army known as the Red Commandos.

History[]

The Red Commandos are hired to guard an extremely valuable painting dubbed "Innocent" which has been sold at auction for 900 million credits. While the painting is being stored at the West Abbeys auction house awaiting collection from its buyer, the cyborg criminal Buaku and his gang break in to steal it, but run afoul of a Red Commando. The Newport City Tank Police arrive to capture Buaku's gang, but in the confusion Buaku escapes, taking one of the police - Leona Osaki - hostage.

Skeleton mobilises the Red Commandos in force to recover Innocent, warning the Tank Police not to interfere. Of course, the Tank Police regard Skeleton's warning as a challenge and all-out street level warfare erupts between the Red Commandos, the Tank Police and the Buaku Gang.

Death[]

After Buaku and Leona reach Tank Police HQ, Skeleton suddenly appears and snatches Innocent from Buaku. It seems that the commando has won, but Umi Puma "borrows" the Tank Battalion's new Virgin-class tank turret and uses it to blast Skeleton's chopper out of the sky. As Skeleton laughs over his victory, the tank shell hits and the chopper explodes.
