Daredevil asks the Little Wise Guys if they would like to know how he came to be Daredevil, and they agree, also wanting to know if they can see him without his mask. Bart tells them of his parent's trip to Australia to meet with Edgar, who managed John's gold mine, and tells them the mine is worthless. Unaware that Edgar wants the mine, John is killed by natives, Mary committing suicide, and the baby abandoned. The baby grows up in a tribe and challenges the Chief to battle, defeating him and becoming the new Chief. He discovers the truth and goes back to America to avenge his parents.
