Background: 1940s film star Errol Drake was accused of spying for the Nazis, which ruined his career. He died at his own hand, a suicide. But he got his revenge.

The ghost was dormant inside the abandoned Stellar Studios until Watchstar West took up residence there, when he struck and terrorized the new superhero team.
