	The World Below is an underground land that exists at the hollow center of the Earth in the ID comics universe. The World Below was first introduced in the silver age comic '[[Sicarii]]', when the android crime fighter was thrown down a volcano in a fight with the [[Terror Troupe]]. His ultrametal exterior unharmed by the intense heat, Sicarii emerged in a primeval underworld. There he discovered a land of the lost, filled with animals long thought extinct, such as the dinosaurs. Eventually, he discovered a roving band of what appeared to be huge, mis-shapen humans. When he tried to greet them, the creatures attacked Sicarii. They captured the android and took him to a huge palace, carved of obsidian. There he was brought before [[Ria]], a brutal Sorceror-King, who revealed his monsterous servants are natives of the land he has captured and magically mutated. Sicarii managed to escape from the palace's jail, and in the jungle he stumbled upon a settlement that resembled an Old West boomtown.
