Shiklah (also known as Flesh Skin) is a fictional character appearing in Marvel Comics. She is a succubus and the Queen of the Undead, ruler of a subterranean monster kingdom beneath New York City.

Created by Chris Sims and Chad Bowers, she first appeared in Deadpool #27 (2014) as part of the "The Wedding of Deadpool" storyline. She was introduced as Deadpool's arranged bride, a marriage brokered by Dracula to unite their respective monster factions.

Shiklah possesses superhuman strength, speed, agility, and reflexes. As a succubus, she can drain the life force from others through physical contact. She is also highly resistant to injury and possesses a healing factor. Her connection to the Undead Realm grants her additional mystical powers.

Initially a reluctant participant in her marriage, Shiklah eventually developed genuine affection for Deadpool. Their relationship was complex and tumultuous, often complicated by their drastically different personalities and leadership styles. They eventually divorced, leading to a conflict where she unleashed her undead armies upon New York City.
