Given a new lease on life by an angel, Kyle Richmond can now see crimes before they are committed and prevent them. Unfortunately, this causes him more problems as the criminals are innocent at the time Nighthawk stops them. Convinced that Nighthawk needs help, Daredevil tracks him down to arrest him. Only after Nighthawk beats Daredevil to near-death does the angel reveal his true identity: he is really the demon Mephisto.
