When Matt Murdock moves to San Francisco, Daredevil suddenly pops up there as well. You could chalk that up to sheer carelessness. Daredevil frequently has difficulties keeping his secret identity under wraps, even with the built-in excuse of how unlikely it was for a superhero to be blind. However, one thing they have in common is their incredible agility and heightened senses, along with an unconventional fighting style. This issue also introduced Turk Barrett, a future low-level operative for the Kingpin. Bill later has a brief career as a superhero named Thunderbolt. Acting on a tip, they bust up the Thunderbolts as Billy reveals that he has gone undercover to find out who is behind the gang. T'Challa dismisses them as criminals, not activists, but when Lonnie becomes depressed, the Panther learns that Billy had joined the Thunderbolts.Īt that point, T'Challa reveals that he is Luke Charles to Daredevil and then tells him that he knows he is Matt Murdock. Lonnie Carver is the younger brother of a Vietnam War vet named Billy Carver, and the Panther saves them from a beating by a Black nationalist gang called the Thunderbolts. Of course, this is the false identity that T'Challa uses when he decides to be a schoolteacher in Harlem during his first stint as an Avenger. Daredevil questions the Panther as to why he was there, and T'Challa tells him that Lonnie is a student of a 'friend' of his, a teacher named Luke Charles.
