Reb Tillis

Caleb “Reb” Tillis is the chief prison guard at the Cage which is a prison facility for superhuman criminals. Wolverine and Hank McCoy are locked up in the Cage when they are arrested for murdering a state senator. Their powers are nullified in the Cage because of a shield dampener that surrounds the facility. A bounty is placed on both of them and all the criminal factions in the Cage wants their heads. Wolverine is placed in solitary confinement by Tillis after a fight takes place in the mess hall with Aryan and the Skulls. Tillis would offer a mystical inmate called Mauvais a chance to be free if he would kill Wolverine. Mauvais agrees so Tillis brings Wolverine to him. Tillis had plans to double cross Mauvais and kill him after he eliminates Wolverine. Mauvais regains some of his mystical abilities after he consumes some of Wolverine’s flesh. Mauvais teleports himself away and Tillis has no choice but to off Wolverine himself. Tillis was ready to blast a wounded Wolverine with a shotgun when he gets slashed from behind by Sabretooth.
