Originally an advertising executive, Harry Matthews was drawn into the occult through his friendship with Jason Blood and killed in an effort to separate Blood from his demonic counterpart, Etrigan. While in Hell, Harry was turned into a pillow by Belial, Etrigan's father. During this time he became relatively bitter and even joined Klarion's team of supernatural villains in their quest for revenge against Etrigan. He also learned a bit of magic--enough to provide the final bit necessary for Klarion to stop Etrigan and Lobo from destroying the world with a special bomb. He was retrieved from Hell and spent time relatively contented in Jason's apartment while his friend searched for a cure for his condition.

For a time, Harry had the companion ship of 'The Thing That Cannot Die', a pink shaped demon about his size that was only eager to please.

He was eventually returned to human form. At one point, he froze his left arm with liquid nitrogen, and it broke off. He had only one arm for several issues. Then Etrigan had some supernatural wish-fulfillers alter reality (for his own reasons), which among other things had the effect of returning Harry to his normal, human, two-armed form.
