History

Mark Richards was a former U.S. Marine who went missing after his helicopter crashed a few years ago. He was presumed dead until he showed up in Gotham City as a hit man. He claimed that the tattoos covering his body were the sins of men he had killed, and that by the art of "sin-grafting," which he had learned from the nation of Modora. By taking the sins of others and putting them on himself, he claimed to be redeeming the men and women he killed. All his victims had tattoos of their sins. He was eventually stopped by Green Lantern and Batman.

Mark becomes a member of the Secret Society of Super Villains. Later he seeks refuge with other villains at the Hall of Justice, so that he wouldn't be sent to the prison planet, that Checkmate was running.

He also took Metropolis detective Dan Turpin in the entrance to the Dark Side Club. He later was found to be hiding with his family for Darkseid's Justifiers, only to save the life of superhero Black Lightning. Black Lighting in turn saved his family and gave them time to get away, allowing himself to get caught. Mark was given the mission to deliver a message to Green Arrow and to carry with him "The Circuit'.
