History: (Daredevil V#8 (fb) – BTS) – Telepath Alexander Apex used his powers to hustle casinos in poker games all over the world but eventually, he was caught as casinos employed their own telepaths to catch him. One casino in Macau offered him a job winning games for them or they would kill him, and Apex agreed.

(Daredevil V#8) – Matt Murdock, posing as Laurent Levesseur, beat high stakes players Chang, Flex, Hank and Ms. Marcos, and flirted with Adhira, before he faced a drunk Apex in a game. "Laurent" was able to shield his thoughts from Apex, as Matt was unable to even see his cards, so Apex assaulted him telepathically but couldn't break through his defenses. As Matt won the poker game, Apex got a bloody nose and then collapsed.

Comments: Created by Charles Soule and Goran Sudzuka.

For the purpose of this profile, it is assumed that Alexander Apex is this character's real name. It is unknown what the source of his powers is so I listed him as a mutate.
