When Dex was young his parents died and he was never properly taught right from wrong which lead to him killing his baseball coach. While he would try to get therapy for his psychopathic tendencies his would therapist would die of some disease. Despite this he would land a job at a suicide hotline and later the FBI. When the FBI was taken over by Kingpin Dex would be manipulated into becoming Kingpins right hand assassin. This would lead to Dex fighting the real Daredevil a few times until he learned that Kingpin killed someone important to him and would attempt to kill Kingpin in revenge. This would lead to a free-for-all battle between Daredevil, Kingpin, and himself with him losing the battle ny getting his back broken. After the battle he was arrested and would have back surgery.

Thor has noted that a ones strength is relative to the need for it, if he has to he can stand on Jupiter, he can stand on anything if the need is great and the cause is just, as can anyone else, not being measured by strength nor raw power but rather measured by what they do[2]. It is noted by Stan Lee in response to the questions of "who would win in a fight?" is the person the writer decides to win[3], with the meta aspect of Marvel Comics being acknowledged[4]), usually Wall level. Far Higher with Resolve (Heroes are noted to be able to defy all logic and reason, to find some hidden well of strength and resolve allowing them to break through things they shouldn't be able to[5], Mephisto directly notes that a hero can reach deep into themself and find untapped reserves of strength that allows them to "lift the impossible weight"[6]. It is shown in "HOW TO READ COMICS THE MARVEL WAY #4", Spider-Man notes how when he has to call upon all of the inner strength within himself[7]. Spider-Man noted how when he knew he couldn't let Aunt May down he reached deep inside of himself and do the impossible and do anything to save the ones he loves[8]. Thor just having a motivational speech from Peter Parker amplifies him to easily defeat M.Y.T.H.O.S.[9], when he couldn't beat him beforehand[10]. Conan noted that the human will can be greater than any physical strength, even sorcery[11]. When Morlun was about to kill Spider-Man, he remembered his friends and family and got a resolve boost to start overpowering him[12]. The Thing through his heart alone when he was about to turn back into Ben Grimm was able to beat The Hulk in one punch who he admitted was stronger then him[13]. When Spider-Man in the first Sam Raimi movies loved ones are endangered Peter becomes far more powerful being capable of completely stomping someone who was previously stomping him[14]. Raimi Spider-Man in Marvel Cinematic Universe was originally defeated by Green Goblin, and in their next fight when completely angered, easily beat him down and was going to kill him if Raimi Spider-Man didn't stop him)
