John Mist II

History

During the Reign of Terror, because of his noble origins, and despite his acts of bravery, John Mist was forced to flee France and take refuge in England. He arrived in London in 1790, ready to build a new life for himself, but without forgetting his ideals. He set out to hunt down London’s criminals. His reputation as a defender of the poor and oppressed was quickly made. His exploits attract the attention of the sinister criminal cartel dubbed the “Gentlemen of the Night”, who captured him and threw his body into a vat of acid, before dumping the corpse into the Thames.

However, Count Saint-Germain recovered the body and, using the alchemical science of the Twelve Immortals, rekindled the spark of life that remained in its cells and resuscitated John Mist. This new John Mist had wraith-like powers and helped Saint-Germain and the Imperial Guardian save Napoleon from Maleficus. Then John Mist swore undying revenge against those who had murdered him—the modern-day descendents of which are the evil organization known as CRIMEN.

This new Jphn Mist has wraith-like powers. In the past, he killed Miss Choc, the daughter of Rick Ross III, secret leader of CRIMEN. More recently, with the help of Frank Universal and Sally Swift, he fought and presumably killed Ross as well. His nemesis now is Rick Ross IV, a.k.a. Baroud. Recently,John Mist teamed up with the Guardian of the Republic to  tackle CRIMEN again.
