In peak physical condition, The Vigilante could destroy any criminal at his disposal. Although, he realizes, his crimes begin to have after-affects; his conscience starts to feel heavy hearted from his enemies deaths.
Sidekickidice • The Vigilante walks the earth of New York in confusion of his direction. He acquires a sidekick—Stuff the Chinatown kid. For his direction, reliability and what have you depend on Stuff’s knowledge of New York.
Same City, new Vigilante • In 1983, the new Vigilante, Adrian Chase, was born. Taken over by Alan Moore’s stranglehold of drama, The Vigilante was now confused…
Corruption • The Vigilante finds that the judicial system is false. He decides to kill his victims without resentment. As a cop, he hears the cries from the families of dead victims: his insanity begins.
His Fall • Chase is at the ends of his hind legs, when he finally tries to remove his mask…but he couldn’t; Chase returns to his mask after a three month interval of purity, his reign returns.
Chase soon dies during the Crisis. The replacement is a rouge cop, named Pat Tryce. After Chase’s death, she replaces him.
