Mini Profile:
-- Real name: Leopold Stryke.
-- He was the curator of an aquarium who led a secret life as a costumed criminal. He was first captured by the police as a result of his battle with The Human Torch (II). After a second defeat by the The Human Torch (II), the Eel was recruited by Count Luchino Nefaria to assist him in his attempt to bold Washington, D.C. for ransom. Nefaria and the costumed criminals he employed on this venture were thwarted by the original X-Men. However, the Eel later acted in partnership with three of the other criminals whom Nefaria had hired: the Plantman, Scarecrow, and Porcupine. Leopold Stryke later joined his brother Jordan, the original Viper, as a member of the first Serpent Squad. The Eel was also a member of the second Serpent Squad, although he was unaware on joining that Jordan had been murdered by the new Squad's organizer, the second Viper.*
-- The original Eel was finally murdered by the costumed criminal known as the Gladiator, who stole a disintegrator ray device that was in the Eel's possession.*
-- The Eel wears a special costume (which is coated with a grease-like substance, making it difficult for an assailant to hold onto him) that contains devices which generate large quantities of electricity, enough to stun or even kill a human being. The Eel's costume is, of course, insulated so that he himself is protected from the electricity it generates. The Eel can project electrical bolts from his hands while wearing the costume. He can use electricity to cause himself to glow in the dark. The Eel can also electrify his costume so that anyone touching him will he shocked into unconsciousness.*

Mini Profile:
-- Real Name: Charles L. Delazny, Jr.
-- He was born in San Jose, California, the only son of the head of Delazny Studios, an independently-owned back lot and soundstage where movies were once filmed, but which had more recently been used primarily for television production. One of Charles L. Delazny Sr.’s longtime associates was Carson "Coot" Collier Sr., a former actor who once directed movie Westerns and later directed television programs at Delazny Studios. Carson Collier Sr. had a son named Carson Collier Jr., who was the same age as Charles L. Delazny Sr.’s son, and the two were schoolmates at Hollywood High School.*
-- Hoping to follow in his father’s footsteps, Charles L. Delazny, Jr. enrolled in the University of Southern California film school, only to become heavily involved in dealing narcotics. Developing criminal contacts, Charles L. Delazny, Jr dropped out of school to pursue a career in crime.
-- The Enforcer wore a steel-mesh bodysuit that covered him from head to toe. His steel face mask had infrared image amplifiers that enabled him to see in the dark. His reinforced vest was covered with silver nitrate to protect him from attack by supernatural creatures who are repelled by silver (such as werewolves). He also carried two .45 caliber automatic machine pistols, which had special ammunition clips containing a number of toxic substances. *

Ghost Rider Link:
-- The Enforcer wanted to obtain a disintegrator ray generator for his own purposes, but it had already been stolen by Leopold Stryke, the original Eel. The Enforcer then hired the costumed criminal known as the Gladiator to steal the device from Leopold Stryke and told him that Stryke had left the device on a certain soundstage at Delazny Studios. (GR1 21 (fb-BTS))*
-- The Enforcer encountered the Eel in the alley [where the Eel had just knocked out Ghost Rider (I)] and "appropriated" the device from him. Leaving the Eel in that alley [where he was soon found and killed by the Gladiator], The Enforcer brought the device to his secret underground base and turned it over to Professor Goldman to be miniaturized. (GR1 21(BTS)/GR1 22 (BTS))*
-- Later, The Enforcer returned to his underground base and Professor Goldman gave him a medallion that was a miniaturization of the disintegration device and which could be used as a weapon. Several hours later, The Enforcer arrived at the Belaire mansion which was the home of "the boss" of a local criminal organization which had gained control of Delazny Studios. After declaring that he was there to take over the operation, The Enforcer was threatened by "the boss" but used the medallion to disintegrate him. The gangsters immediately accepted The Enforcer as their new "boss." (GR1 22 )*
-- The next day, The Enforcer and four members of his newly-acquired gang left the Delazny mansion and drove south to the San Diego Naval Yards, unaware that they were being followed by Ghost Rider (I). After arriving at the Naval Yards, The Enforcer paused to brag about his disintegrator ring and the foreign power who had financed his operation. When the shore patrol showed up and opened fire, The Enforcer left his men to deal with them while he proceeded with his mission. He disintegrated a destroyer before Ghost Rider (I) (who had already taken care of the goons) knocked him off his feet. After a brief running battle that ended with them both falling into The Enforcer, The Enforcer escaped from Ghost Rider (I) but lost his ring in the water while doing so. (GR1 22)*
-- The Enforcer showed up at the warehouse where The Water-Wizard was celebrating the success of his first bank robbery and offered him one million dollars to kill Ghost Rider (I). The Water-Wizard accepted the contract and the next day he tried to kill Johnny Blaze while the motorcyclist was performing a stunt at Delazny Studios, but Johnny Blaze survived by briefly changing into Ghost Rider (I).(GR1 23)*
-- At The Enforcer's request, The Water-Wizard used his power over water to create a thousand liquid creatures who combed the bottom of San Diego harbor to find and recover the lost disintegrator ring. Guessing that Johnny Blaze might have learned of Charles L. Delazny Sr.'s involvement with him, The Enforcer arranged for The Water-Wizard to ambush Ghost Rider (I) at Charles L. Delazny Sr.'s estate that night. The ambush ended with Ghost Rider (I) being knocked out and transformed back into Johnny Blaze. (GR1 24(fb)/GR1 23 (BTS)) *
-- As Charles L. Delazny Sr. stood above Johnny Blaze's unconscious body, The Enforcer appeared and revealed that he had arranged the ambush. When Charles L. Delazny Sr. angrily questioned him, The Enforcer threatened Charles L. Delazny Sr.'s family (including his son) and cowed Charles L. Delazny Sr. by demonstrating his disintegrator ring's power. After taking Charles L. Delazny Sr.'s son's Motorcycle and ordering Charles L. Delazny Sr. to report it as stolen, The Enforcer tried to kill Johnny Blaze by having him tied to the Motorcycle which was then sent off a cliff. Although he saw Johnny Blaze transform into Ghost Rider (I) on the way down, The Enforcer was sure that no man could have lived through the crash. Returning to his underground base with The Water-Wizard, The Enforcer revealed that he planned to use Charles L. Delazny Sr.'s business to launder the money he was going to make from the crime-empire that he was building. The Enforcer then stated that he had decided to eliminate the person he saw as the only remaining threat, the man who created his ring, and was about to disintegrate Professor Goldman when Ghost Rider (I) showed up. After a brief battle, both The Water-Wizard and The Enforcer were knocked out by Ghost Rider (I) who then removed The Enforcer's mask but didn't recognize him. Johnny Blaze later called the police and told them where to find the criminals.(GR1 24)*
-- While seeking information about the Ghost Rider (I), Doctor Anthony Druid confronted Charles L. Delazny Sr.. and used his powers to probe Charles L. Delazny Sr.'s mind. While doing so, Druid learned that Charles L. Delazny Sr. was upset because "(his) son was secretly a criminal known as The Enforcer, who was captured and imprisoned recently!" (GR1 24(BTS))*
-- The Enforcer was hired by some gamblers who wanted him to fix the rematch between Johnny Blaze and Flagg Fargo. The Enforcer met Flagg Fargo and threatened to kill him if he didn’t take a dive and let Johnny Blaze win, but Flagg Fargo refused. The Enforcer later used his modified car to fire some (warning) shots at Flagg Fargo, but Johnny Blaze was there and gave chase on his Motorcycle. The Enforcer let Johnny Blaze see him, then shot him with tranquilizer darts. Later, at the stunt-championship contest, The Enforcer shot Flagg Fargo as he was performing the auto jump, causing Flagg Fargo to crash onto the cars. With everyone distracted by the crash in the arena, The Enforcer went to the stadium box office and robbed it of the $300,000 in ticket receipts. The Enforcer shot two guards with tranquilizers and escaped in his souped-up car but was pursued by the Ghost Rider (I). The Enforcer fired a missile from his car’s bomb bay to destroy a bridge to cut off pursuit, but Ghost Rider (I) took the longer way around. Finding himself racing head-on at the Ghost Rider (I) on a narrow road high above a lake, the desperate Enforcer drove his car off the precipice and into the lake. By the time that he pulled himself from the lake the Ghost Rider (I) had left. (GR1 58)*
