History:

(Daredevil I#10) – Milton Monroe was selected to be the Reform Party’s candidate for assemblyman, while Abner Jonas was selected for mayor, Bernard Harris as borough president, and Franklin “Foggy” Nelson (who Bernard’s daughter Debbie had dated in junior high) for district attorney. At a yacht party, Monroe introduced himself to Nelson and met his friends Matt Murdock and Karen Page. During the party, a spear was fired from the water at Jonas and they all rushed to check on him. As a crime-wave struck the city, Jonas gave speeches that turned people in favor of the Reform Party. Monroe approached Jonas at a party that evening, stating he did not like this campaign approach and was considering resigning. Shortly after, Cat-Man and Bird-Man kidnapped Debbie Harris from the party, shocking the candidates, though Cat-Man was apprehended by Daredevil.

(Daredevil I#11) – After Debbie was rescued by Daredevil, Harris, Jonas, Milton, and Nelson met up. Nelson claimed that evidence against the Organizer, the man behind the recent crime wave, was in the safe at his law offices. Later, Matt Murdock tried asking Monroe some questions, but he rushed off. The Reform Party started losing credit, then a plot from the criminal Organizer to assassinate the mayor for the Reform Party became public, exposed by Daredevil.
