History: (Power Man#27 - BTS) - Bruno Murphy was robbing the flat of the old Dr. Klemph. Dr. Klemph strenuously defended a cylinder that contained a special fluid. That fluid was a serum based on the theories of Dr. Klemph about the formula created by Dr. Reinstein, the Super-Soldier Formula; Dr. Klemph hadn't written the formula down, keeping it saved only in his mind. Bruno Murphy killed him, thinking that the cylinder was precious.
(Power Man#27) - Bruno Murphy run away from Klemph's flat and hid the cylinder in the Willie Dance's wardrobe in a wrestling-school. Murphy fled, but met two policemen who were checking a stolen car. Murphy extracted his gun and the policemen had to shoot, killing him.
