History

Gordon "Monk" Keefer was a criminal who served time in prison for having tried to rob a Stark Industries facility, during which he was interrupted by Captain America and Rick Jones[1].

He was later broken out of jail by Cat-Man on behalf of the Organizer to join his Ani-Men. The Ani-Men were soon sent against Daredevil by the Organizer, after he had crossed the Organizer's plans on several occasions. After implicating Daredevil in a bank robbery, the Ani-Men were next sent to kidnap Debbie Harris. When Cat-Man was captured during the attempt, Keefer was sent to assassinate him before he could reveal the Organization's secrets[2]. He was defeated along with rest of the Ani-Men by Daredevil and sent to prison[3].

Later, Keefer escaped from prison alongside his fellow Ani-Men Bird-Man and Cat-Man. They started working for the Exterminator as the Unholy Three[4]. They were once again defeated by Daredevil[5]. They also fought both Daredevil and Spider-Man as the Unholy Three but were defeated[6].

Until this moment little more than a man in an ape suit, Keefer did possess super human strength when working for Count Nefaria in the team's 3rd incarnation[7] Still in Nefaria's employ but apparently returned to his original, non powered form, Keefer later fought Iron Man on his orders but was apparently killed along with the other Ani-Men when the Spymaster detonated a bomb inside Nefaria's base.
