| Origin | |
| The account of his origin
given by the assassin known as Arcade has been unsubstantiated and
may have been concocted to mislead and confuse his opponents for his own
amusement. According to Arcade he was the idle son of a Beverly Hills millionaire. When he became an adult, Arcade's father canceled his allowance, to which he responded by killing him the next day with an explosion. Inheriting his father's wealth, Arcade turned his skills towards killing for hire. Accepting million-dollar contracts Arcade often spent more than his fee in constructing his apparatus of death known as Murder-World. |
