He first comes into conflict with Daredevil and battles him on this mission.[1]

Some time later, the Kingpin sent Bullet to retrieve a contractor's map, but Bullet encountered Daredevil along the way, who defeated him.[4] Bullet was later among the superhuman criminals who tried to escape from the Vault, a prison for superhumans. Along with Griffin and Orka he makes it farther than most, emerging from a vent half a mile from the prison. All three are defeated by Hank Pym and Captain America.[5]

Bullet is later seen being beaten by Daredevil during Matt's year as Kingpin of Hell's Kitchen.[6]

Sometime later, Bullet is among a group of contract killers hired by the Assassins' Guild to hunt Wolverine and Domino of X-Force. During the ensuing battle, Bullet is stabbed in the chest by Warpath.[7]
