Biography
Pre-Crisis
Harvey Bullock
Stein brought Vigilante to Gotham to partner with Bullock on the Katia case. Vigilante located Katia at the Regency, and Batman, who was also tracking her, ambushed him. Vigilante said he was working for the feds, but Batman ignored him, saying he was a dangerous madman and a killer, and he intended to bring him into custody. Vigilante was overwhelmed by his fighting style, but Bullock broke them up, and vouched for him. Batman agreed to settle up with the Vigilante later, after Katia was caught. They stopped the shipment of smuggled art treasures, and Vigilante found a tape of government tapes she was also smuggling. A firefight erupted between Katia's men and the feds, and Carlos' men gunned down Katia for involving them in high treason. They took aim at Vigilante, and Batman pushed him off a pier. Bullock cleaned up the mess, and Stein was disconcerted that there was no trace of Vigilante. (Vigilante v1 #47) Commissioner Gordon told Harvey he would better be served staying on as a fed, happy to get rid of him. Stein Stein went with the cover story that Adrian drowned in Gotham, and set him up with the identity of Dean Baker. Bullock helped him get set up in his new Manhattan apartment, bragging about his new position and saying he felt like James Bond. Harvey learned that Black Thorn was lying to Vigilante about her past, but because he needed to keep Vigilante a functional operative he decided not to tell him. (Vigilante v1 #49) Vigilante snapped and committed suicide. Harvey Bullock attended his funeral, and shed a tear for a man whose drive he had admired. (Vigilante v1 #50)
