HistoryEdit

Deputy Kowalski was part of New Beulah Police Department. When he decided to investigate about some car accidents on Highway 18, he headed to the Wojciehowicz Funeral Home. There, the funeral director received him, Kowalski recounted a story about the Highway 18 and reports of cannibalism by the first inhabitants of a town near the Higway 18, and the director was the last living descendant of them, so the deputy thought he could know something.

The director cut off Kowalski's right hand, wanting him for dinner. But the deputy survived after he, the funeral director and the Ghost Rider were involved in a four-way car accident. The Ghost Rider came for the funeral director in order to end with the curse of the Highway 18, leaving him with his ghostly descendants, but before, Kowalski tried to stop him, recieving the Penace Stare, and being left broken there.

After losing everything, Kowalski grow angered of Ghost Rider, swearing to have his vengeance. While on a liquor store, Kowalski was approached by a man (serving as a pawn of Zadkiel) who led him to Michael Badilino, he gave Kowalski a special shotgun with which he could face the Ghost Rider. In the Arabian Desert, Kowalski found the Ghost Rider, who was racing against Danny Ketch, the other Rider. After blasting Blaze in the chest, Kowalski tried to take his power, to give it to Zadkiel, but Ketch managed to subdue the ex-deputy before. A portion of the Blaze's power was kept with Kowlaski, turning him in the new Vengeance.

He was later recruited by Zadikiel, along Deacon and Blackout, who wanted to make a "task-force" of Ghost Rider foes, to destroy both Blaze and Ketch. His mission was to wait for the Riders in the gateway to Heaven along the Orb, but the doorway was being guarded by the Gun Nuns, who battled him until the Ghost Riders arrived. Orb was easily defeated, but both Ghost Rider had to combine forces to take Kowalski down.

After Zadkiel was defeated, Vengeance was bound in chains by the last member of the Gun Nun, forcing him to guard the gateway to Heaven in replacement of her fallen sisters.

Later, he was freed and joined Shadow Council's new incarnation of the Masters of Evil along with many other super-villains.^[1][2]
