He befriended a pyrokinetic Mutant boy who razed the apartment complex he lived in that accidently killed his mother. Lee was abandoned by his father and went into protective services for five years until he decided to become an Army Ranger. He suffered an injury from a mine explosion that took two fingers from his left hand leading to him being discharged. As a result, he was sent back home as a disabled veteran but struggled in getting benefits or employment leading to him engaging in criminal activities. He bonded to the Venom symbiote and brutalised it into following his commands despite its reluctance in becoming a villain. (Venom v3 #1)
